  We were staying to attend a wedding unfortunately the facilities were not there in any of the rooms to accommodate us having a stress free morning getting ready There are no mirrors in the bedrooms no place to dry hair or put makeup on We would have liked to get ready in the privacy of our own rooms Doing makeup and hair in the mirror at the front door wasn’t what we expected and having to go up and down the tiny stairs more than should have been necessary wasn’t good There was no full length mirror any where in the cottage We knew there was one bathroom and worked round this but the lack of these facilities impacted our stay Originally booked to accommodate our little dog who sadly didn’t make it as a wedding guest The bedding quilt cover on the beds was rough on the skin maybe a bit past it’s best Written down this may seem like a lot but I’m sure with the addition of these few things would mean each guest could enjoy getting ready for the day in the privacy of their own rooms The kitchen area is lovely and well equipped with the large seating area to gather round The bathroom is spotless and the shower is good pressure and always had hot water The weather during our stay wasn’t the best so we didn’t have an opportunity to explore but we were there to attend a wedding therefore a different type of visit luckily the sun came out in time and we had a lovely day The area all around is lovely especially in the sunshine just a shame we couldn’t take advantage of the garden

  This is a return visit as we loved the cottage so much in October 2021.

  It was lovely to see our previous feedback had clearly been read by the owners of this beautiful cottage, which shows how much they care about your stay. The cottage was so cosy and so warm to come back to after blowy days walking in the different parts of the coastal trail. There was a fleecy blanket for our pooch along with poo bags incase you forget yours. The kitchen has everything you need and more. The cottage is perfectly situated for walks to the Whitehills harbour and rocky beach, but being right on the coastal trail you are so close to beaches/towns of Banff, Cullen, Pennan etc. We love how dog friendly the owners clearly are(a shame the previous occupants didn't have the same attentiveness as they had left dogs mess in the garden, why spoil it for everyone whilst giving the owners a bad name). We have fallen in love with this home from home and would most definitely be wanting to return again and again, the only thing that would make us consider other accommodation is the bed, although Silent Night mattresses we didn't sleep well and had sore backs for the best part of the holiday. Very comfy sofas, love the fact there is a separate shower cubicle and bath. The garden albeit totally enclosed(larger dogs that jump could escape if left alone outside) I still feel the VERY thorny bushes are an extreme hazard. End on a positive note; was gutted to be leaving.

  Rose cottage is in a unique location - it's like being in your own oasis and it is as the pictures. There is great space for spreading out if you have kids of different ages. The locally sourced products in the welcome pack were lovely, especially the wine. As a family of 6 we loved the space, and the garden is special for some things you won't want to go out and about as you have an oasis of calm to enjoy. Our first time visiting the area we would recommend it on location for the Shire horse sanctuary (free entrance), West Runton Beach, Cromer and Sheringham close by if you want more to do. We went to Norwich and Wells too. Lots to do more than enough for a week. Since arriving home we saw the local Rocky Bottoms on the TV programme of Norfolk and Suffolk too - it is close by. We enjoyed the fair that was visiting east runton playing fields. There are supermarkets not far - Morrisons and Lidl and the little local convenience store is worth a visit. If you are considering this area and want somewhere a little different then this is a great choice.

  The cottage is beautiful, cosy and convenient and would most definitely consider returning should we holiday that way in the future.

  The only thing we found which wasn't really a huge problem to us was the back is missing from the cupboard with the pans in and they are falling back into the old fire place, the cupboard with the salt pepper etc hadn't been cleaned and there were two trays along side of the pan cupboard that had food on them still. As I said this did not affect our stay and we cleaned the cupboard out which wasn't a hardship(it was nice to have condiments available to us). Beautiful garden and the views are stunning, we were watching the dolphins from the snug. It would be good to know in advance there is not a toilet upstairs. Just a note to the owner that the bushes at the back of the property as they will be aware is VERY spiky and not great for dogs eyes or children's hands. Thank you for letting your beautiful property out to dog owners especially and I hope we left it to their satisfaction(we have a big hairy dog, so were paranoid about keeping the carpets clean). Michelle, Troy, Sheenagh and Leonberger Morgana Palmer.

  Absolutely lovely property.

  The lounge is super cosy with the stove lit on dark nights and sofas were comfy too. The farmhouse had everything we needed. The secure garden was great for the dogs to play and the walk around the fishing lake was lovely. Narrow country lanes to get to property but soon got used to them and was an ideal base to go to all the amazing surrounding beaches. We went to escape the fireworks as both dogs are terrified and didn’t hear any bangs the whole week, was so peaceful. The only noises came from the birds and the cows. Was greeted by the owners when we arrived then left us be but were only a phone call away if we needed anything. Good WiFi too If anything negative maybe a check of the kitchen as some of the plates are chipped and in need of a new frying pan. But would highly recommend and would definitely return it was a great property. As others have mentioned both dogs are sulking now we are home
