Long weekend at the beachcomber

Fabulous place to stay, great location & so close to the dunes great for walking the dogs, it’s the second time we have stayed there & the boys know where the back gate led too. The house is like a tardis looks like a regular terrace house but super big inside. We had excellent fish & chips from the local chippy & Rachel the owner kept in touch with us throughout our stay

Fabulous stay in the best location

We had a wonderful weekend at Beachcomber with our 6 year old Vizsla. The house was ‘dog perfect’ situated on a quiet road and just a few minutes walk from the wonderful dunes at Winterton. Plenty of space in the house with a well equipped kitchen and a small safe garden. We’ll be back!

Fantastic place to stay

We had a great time with our two dogs at this property, it’s a fantastic location with a short walk to the beach and The Fisherman’s Return, we have never seen so many seals on the beach in our life. We would definitely book the property again

Fabulous property

We return here year after year and it never disappoints us. Fantastic location and cozy cottage. It's difficult to find really nice properties that will let you take 3 dogs, Beachcomber is close to the sea with fabulous walks. For us it's perfect and we've already booked again for next year.

Lovely relaxing break

We parked the car and didn’t use it until we left. Accommodation was ideal, location perfect, five minutes to beach, and amenities first class. Everywhere was dog friendly, and the locals were so welcoming. The Fisherman’s return, local pub, was very dog friendly.

Perfect location and lovely cottage

The cottage is beautifully clean, the kitchen well equipped and we feel at home as soon as we arrive. This was our 3rd visit and there are always small improvements each time we go. It’s incredibly dog friendly, the garden is small but very secure and the dogs are worn out from all the beach time anyway. The location is great, no more than a minute to the dunes and probably only 5 to the beach. If you didn’t want to you wouldn’t need to leave the village the whole of your holiday, there is a well stocked village shop, a post office which also sells some nice bread and grocery items, as well as being a fab cafe, a great fish and chip shop and a really nice pub. We’ve already booked our 4th visit!

Family Getaway

We had the loveliest long weekend at Beschcomber. Garden was super secure for our German Shepherd an so close to the gorgeous quiet beach. Rachel was a fabulous host and gave us loads of useful information in the welcome pack. There was even snacks left for the dog! Highly recommended

Lovely cottage close to the dunes.

We were really comfortable at Beachcomber. The living areas downstairs were lovely, light and airy with plenty of space. Upstairs the bedrooms were really comfortable. Situated in the village, it was an easy stroll to the shops and the pub. So nice to be able to take the dogs straight up onto the dunes. Owner Rachel took care to check that we and our dogs were settled in and that everything was OK for us.

Perfect cottage

We had a lovely week in Beachcomber for the week, perfect location and lovely welcome basket full of goodies. The cottage was spotless and very comfortable, everything you need was thought of, the garden is very secure for dogs. The beds upstairs have to be the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in and very big. All adults and dogs had the best time thank you

Surprisingly spacious

Had a lovely week stay. Cottage had everything we needed. Our large Labrador loved his daily walk to the beach and enjoyed his swims in the sea. Village was so welcoming to dogs. So many walks to do and plenty to see. If you get a chance do the climb to the top of the church tower, amazing views.

Beachcomber

If you just want to unwind this is the place to do so, minutes walk to the Dunes where you can walk miles then end up having a coffee at Seal view . Beachcomber has everything you need home from home.

Beachcomber April 2024

We had a very comfortable stay at Beachcomber and were so pleased to find somewhere that really was dog friendly. Close to the dunes and the sea with other lovely walks around too. The accommodation was as described and the quirky stair gate worked a treat to stop my golden retriever from the upstairs ( even though he was allowed )

Perfect stay in a perfect location

Such a fantastic cottage in a lovely dog friendly location. Comfortable, well equipped cottage with a secure garden for the dogs. Towels and blankets provided for dogs alongside treats and bowls. The cottage is just a stones throw from miles of off lead walks across the dunes and beach. Such a peaceful location. Lots of countryside walks within driving distance and some amazing dog friendly cafes.

Fantastic property and location

A lovely, well appointed cottage just a couple of minutes walk to unspoilt dunes and beaches. The property was immaculately clean and provided everything needed for both human and four legged occupants. Beautiful walks moments from the doorstep as well as a corner shop, lovely pub and tea room. Less than 10 minutes drive to visit Horsey wind pump and beach, seeing the seals on the beach is a fabulous sight! We all had a great time and would love to come back again soon.

This is my third holiday via East Ruston holidays. I had a relaxing break. The cottage was welcoming and like home the moment we arrived. The guide provided via an app and information pack at the cottage was very helpful. Highly recommend

Very comfortable cottage, close to the dunes and easy walk to the beach

A lovely comfy cottage, fully equipped and super dog friendly. A home from home in a super village. The local pub did good food and allowed dogs. Well stocked convenience store at end of road. Endless local dog walks but we loved the dunes. Seal pups on the beach were a bonus. Great beaches all along the coast for a good run for the dogs. Loved it all.

Happy family holiday

The choice of accommodation was based on finding somewhere happy to allow 3 dogs and for the dogs not to be restricted as it's their holiday too. Beechcomber met all these needs and more. We had the best family holiday in a fantastic location with walks, the sea, cafe, shop and pubs all close by and accessible. The accommodation was perfect, everything we needed was there and so thoughtfully prepared. I would recommend a stay at Beechcomber and hopefully will be back there again myself one day.

Perfect location for dog walks on an amazing beach

Beachcomber is a great location for one of Norfolk's best beaches at Winterton-on-Sea. This was our first family holiday with our baby and golden retriever. The house was really clean and comfortable with lots of space. There was a really nice welcome basket of goodies, including dog treats. They really do ensure your dog is treated as a guest, not just the pet you are bringing along on your holiday. The beach is literally a 5 minute walk away, it's massive and usually very quiet. The amenities in the town are very good. We visited the local cafe, pub, and got quality fish and chips on our last evening. Finally, the communication and instructions from our host was excellent and we would have no hesitation about visiting again in the future.

Fabulous time at Beachcomber

Brilliant cottage - very comfortable and clean. Very dog friendly with plenty of throws for the sofas and lots of doggie (and human) extras. The location is great - the Winterton Dunes are at the end of the road and it is only a few minutes stroll to get to the wonderful dog friendly beach. There is a well stocked corner shop at the end of the road within a couple of minutes walk. The garden, although not grassed, was ideal for our dog. Communication with the owner was good and the online information booklet was really helpful to keep on the phone. My only disappointment was having to come home at the end of the holiday! Hope that we can return to Beachcomber at some point in the future.
