About this property

The Grove | East Ruston Cottages

ALL ABOUT THE INSIDE:
Entrance
Through the front door into the hall way with hooks for coats/keys etc. The floor is wooden with non slip mats (there are more of these available in the hall cupboard).

Sitting room
Lovely large windows with view across fields – a wonderful place to view the setting sun. There is a three seater leather sofa, a two seater leather sofa and fabric covered chair – plenty of seating! Throws are provided for these. There is a lovely feature fireplace with a wood burning stove. Hisense 32 inch Smart TV with Netflix account for guest use. Wooden coffee and chest/drawer unit for games, books etc and reading lamp with USB charger built in.

Kitchen
This is at the front of the house so that there are views across fields, making washing up a pleasure! If you don’t want to wash up you can use the built in dishwasher! There is also a built-in Stoves oven with a double oven/grill. The hob is halogen and there is a microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge/freezer. Plenty of space for food storage and surface space for cooking. Also a built in washing machine. The floor is tiled with underfloor heating and there is a door straight into the garden.

Just outside the kitchen the hall way cupboard has extra non-slip mats, vacuum cleaner, broom etc.

Dining Room
There is seating at the dining table for 4, a tall book case with games and books for guest use. A very useful portable table with built in stools is kept in here – ideal for taking into the living room for a tv dinner if you would rather eat in there. Views out onto the garden.

Front Master Bedroom
This room has a double bed with a black metal frame. There is a bedside cabinet on one side of the bed and on the other side of the bed is a small matching chest of drawers. Bedding is non-feather. Two bedside lamps have built in USB chargers – very useful! The views are towards the rather lovely thatched roof of the cottage next door. There is no wardrobe but a very useful hanging rail/shelf and a full length mirror.

Second bedroom
The bed is a king size in this room and has two bedside cabinets. There is a wall mirror and very useful hanging rail. Bedding is non-feather here too. The two bedside lamps have built in USB chargers as in the other bedroom. The views are out onto the garden.

Bathroom
A modern bathroom with a bath and mixer shower over the bath with a screen. There are also two hand held showers. Washbasin and lavatory too.

ALL ABOUT THE OUTSIDE:
There is enough parking on the private driveway for up to 4 cars so loads of room! The side gate gets you into the private and secure garden. The garden is a good size, plenty of grass with a gravel area and hard standing too. Garden seating for 4 and the entire garden is fully enclosed by 6ft high foot fencing and gates making it very secure and dog friendly. Hedges all have wire within them.

The front garden isn’t enclosed but does have a little bench seat for those sunset sundowners!

Another fantastic stay at the sanctuary aka the Grove

A wonderful stay in our little sanctuary. Away from the noise of cars and people, this is a rare and precious find. Somewhere that keeps out dogs happy (with woods and beach 5 minutes in each direction).

A relaxing break in the countryside

The bungalow was very clean and welcoming. It is one of the best places we've stayed in. Lovely views, a great rear garden and walks straight from the door. We wanted to stay somewhere where we could relax (we live in Cromer, just a few miles away from the Grove, and it gets very busy this time of year) and the Grove was perfect. Our elderly dog settled in immediately and found a new lease of life. A change of scenery did us all a world of good!

We love Staying at the Grove

This was our second visit to the Grove and it was superb again, so much so we have booked a third year. East Rushton Cottages takes dog friendly to new levels and the Grove is a superb example of this. The property is immaculately presented, and the peace of mind of the secure garden ensures a truly relaxed holiday. Our 3 dogs always are so settled from the moment we enter the front door, even our youngest dog who was returned to his breeder and didnt stay last year (and has only been with us 5 months was very relaxed) and we had taken his toys, but loved the toy box. We cannot thank the owners enough for such a wonderful relaxing holiday. And a huge and heartfelt thank you to Sue at ERC for assisting with my booking when my computer had a wobbly mid transaction.

Oh wow, thank you so much for your fantastic review & lovely comments. We are so pleased you all had a nice relaxing 2nd holiday at The Grove & that the newest member of your wonderful pup family settled right in & enjoyed the toy box too :-) We can't wait to welcome you all back again!

My perfect holiday home

The Grove is perfect for me. It's on one floor, it is not too big, but very comfortable and cosy. To cap it all it has a lovely, large, fully enclosed rear garden with different areas to sit in so you can follow the sun or the shade at different times of the day. It's in a lovely rural location, a few minutues from Bacton Woods and only 5 minutes from the coast. My 3 toy poodles, one of which can be reactive, absolutely love it here. They fully relax, so therefore so can I. No hesitation in recommending The Grove.

Beautiful Garden

Lovely bungalow, with so much attention to detail when it comes to your dog’s comfort. Everywhere was exceptionally clean. The bed was very comfortable, the shower was lovely. The living room is on the smaller side, but comfortable and cosy. The jewel in the crown was the beautiful garden, our dogs loved it as much as we did. In between all the walks around the beautiful countryside. With the woods and beach not too far away. Highly recommend.

Best dog holiday ever.

The bungalow was extremely welcoming with almost everything needed for a doggy holiday, plus everything his humans needed, and some. From the moment we opened the gate to the back garden it was obviously going to be a good place to stay. Completely secure garden for ball throwing and doggy sniffing. A cupboard full of doggy toys and bowls. The kitchen had the biggest selection of utensils I've ever had in a holiday let. The welcome goodies were amazing. I was worried about whether our dog would be ok, he's never been on holiday but, unlike some places we looked at that were only tolerant of dogs, he was allowed anywhere and after a bit of hesitation made himself at home. We are already talking about our next visit.

Lovely quiet cottage

Great location if you like peace and quiet. Super views and lovely sunsets. Amazingly well equipped. Big garden, perfect for the dogs, lots of seating to enjoy the sun or the shade all day round. Quiet road with easy access to very pleasant walks. Fascinating church just around the corner, well off the beaten track.

Lovely quiet cottage

The location is idyllic, very quiet with walks from the front door. The cottage was well laid out, very clean and tidy with everything you would need. The garden is a great size and fully enclosed, perfect for sighthound 'zoomies'. A great area to holiday in with plenty to do, places to visit and dog friendly cafes, pubs & restaurants in the area.

Perfect stay

Lovely place to stay. Our 2nd visit and just as welcoming. Everything you could need and more. Great garden for sniffs and runs for the dogs if they had any energy left after the beach walks. Comfortable beds and cosy duvet. Great bathroom for nice soaks after those long walks, also amazing shower if you prefer. Brilliant place to stay

A great place for people and dogs

This was our first visit to The Grove. The bungalow is equipped with everything you could possibly need for people and dogs. It is very comfortable with amazing views over open countryside at the front. The dogs loved the large garden and the nearby walks. We all really enjoyed our stay and would definitely have another holiday at The Grove.

Home from home and hound heaven

We stayed for 3 weeks due to renovation work at home. The hosts were not extremely friendly and accommodating. The property had everything you could possibly need down to the last detail. Our dogs loved it. Close to Bacton Woods, Bacton Beach (dog friendly from the car park) and Pogmey woods. We took trips out to Felbrigg and Blickling and had amazing weather throughout. Peaceful, quiet and perfect.

The Grove was in an excellent location, on a quiet lane with views over fields, but also close to woods and the beach. It was lovely and clean and had everything you needed.

Brilliant Property & Facilities, in a wonderfully peaceful location

This property goes beyond Dog Friendly. Having stayed in other places "where dogs are welcome" there is such a difference when staying at a property like this which is set up for your dogs canine comfort but still caters superbly for humans too. The peace of mind of a secure garden with sunny and shady spots, multiple seating areas in the garden. Dog bowls, spare leads, dog toys, etc, some lovely locally made dog biscuits and goodies for us too in a lovely welcome hamper. Superb facilities, very well maintained, very clean and tidy, which makes for a wonderful restful, and thoroughly enjoyable holiday for you and your beloved dogs. Thank you so much, we will definitely be booking again.

Beautifully kept bungalow and garden

We have been renting holiday homes for over 20 years and this is the best equipped we've ever stayed in! Immaculately clean, with everything we could need. The weather was very hot (the temperature inside was 28 degrees even at night) which was uncomfortable, but the lovely, secure garden meant the dog (and us) could stay outside happily. Because of the hot weather, we didn't manage the many lovely walks recommended, although we did have lovely little potters up to the amazing old church in the evenings.

A lovely week at the Grove

Lovely bungalow with a very big garden. Well thought out for humans and dogs. Comfortable bed and well equipped kitchen. Our dogs enjoyed the toy box and loved playing with the different toys. The welcome pack was excellent. Very close to Bacton Woods and the beach. Very quiet location overlooking fields. We wouldn't hesitate to book again.
