What our customers say about their holidays
Mr Lawton - Verified booking
We booked our stay through originalcottages.co.uk having found this property in their listings and what a place it looked, open plan, well appointed a lovely looking property. We arrived with high hopes of staying in a lovely appointed and spacious house. BUT! our hopes where quickly shattered. The property had a tired and well used appearance and we then found that it was dirty! The master bed had not been changed prior to our stay sheets dirty and hairs in the bed YUCK! Only two bath towels and one hand towel left for our use. Thank goodness we had taken beach towels with us! The separate toilet wash basin was disgusting having not been cleaned for who knows how long. The shower riser rail in the main bathroom was hanging off the wall and the connection between the hose and shower head was wrapped in sticky tape which was covered in black mould. The whole bathroom needed a good clean. The owner did arrange for a plumber to rectify the problems in the bathroom but this only happened four day in to our stay. In the lounge there was dust on every surface and someone had written “clean me” on the TV stand which and even more dust over the writing. All the furniture in the lounge and dinning area had seen better days the main yellow sofa was particularly bad in that the sprung base had collapsed and you sunk in to the base when sitting on it. We complained to the agent and they got the owner to call us. She (The owner) was apologetic to a point but offered very little to resolve the problem. Blaming the previous people that stayed there for the problems, saying they had left the place in a terrible state. I do not believe this for one moment and what are cleaners for anyway ? She could have offered to sending the cleaner back in the following day to clean the place and change the bedding but NO! we ended up clean and washing things ourselves. This is not what you expect to have to do at all never mind when you have been charged just short of £1000.00 for the stay. The only advise I can offer anyone thinking of staying at Journeys End is DONT!

The cottage itself is lovely but is in serious need of a very deep clean and quite a lot of maintenance.
The porch lets in water which was very challenging due to the weather whilst we were there. Top of washing machine and dryer in need of good clean. Kitchen quite clean other than dirty windows. The fridge freezer required me to completely clean the fridge before I could use. Tha sitting room again at first sight seemed clean but was not. Dusty skirting boards and cobwebs on the light fittings. There were food crumbs under one sofa, log burner covered in dust, enough for me to write "Hello" in it and be clearly seen. No instructions for the use of the log burner. Bathroom shower extreme black mould on door, base and grouting. The radiator in the bathroom does not work despite it supposedly running from the log burner. The stairs are from the sitting room up and they had very large cobwebs IE 6/7" in length. Wall paper was peeling in places. Double bedroom has black mould under and wallpaper and on the wallpaper by the window. The wallpaper is peeling extensively. Again the windows need a good clean. Bedroom 2 was not as bad but again under the beds fluff and dust all around the skirting boards. And the landing area is also in need of skirting boards cleaning, dresser top has pot pourri in a bowl which should be thrown away as so very dusty and dirty. One last matter is that exiting the drive onto the road needs extreme caution if you have a low bumper and suspension as there is a distinct "V" were the drive meets the road. I had to ensure no husband in the passenger seat of my vehicle to alleviate the weight on the front of the vehicle as the bumper caught. So, a very disappointing experience all in all.

Please kindly note that it was very disappointing to find that even basic cleaning had not been carried out to a satisfactory standard within the above property.
The following items/areas were not found to be in order: Shower/Toilet/Main Living area floor/Dirty oven dishes in the cupboard, (that had either been left dirty by the previous persons, and had not been picked by the Owner). There was no heating provided to dry Towls within the Bathroom, (there was a piped heated towel rail, but this was linked to the central heating system, which was off). One side of the matress within the mainbedroom was very uncomfortable with a spring. There were no 'Oven gloves' provided, (this is a basic item and a new pair should have been provided). It was not satisfactory at all trying to use 'Tea-towels', and there was not even a potato peeler provided! (this is all basic stuff). The front garden is not, 'Dog friendly' as it is open with no gates off the main parking area and the road is very busy with 'Farm traffic'. It should also be noted that there was 'no' local holiday information booklet provided' for the above property. The above list overall is very disappointing too have to feedback, and not up to the required standard that i would normally expect from 'Skyes Cottages' who i have used for a number of years, and usually twice a year. During the current climate i would not have expected to have found any, 'Cleaning issues'? and it gives me little confidence, that the 'Self-Catering' Industry are correctly managing these factors? I would not recomend the above property, untill all of the above items are addressed accordingly.

Mrs Wilson - Verified booking
Journey’s End is a lovely property which is so very comfortable and in a beautiful and extremely peaceful location. You are minutes by car from Hunstanton if you fancy a day at a ‘traditional’ seaside town and also minutes from various other quieter beaches which are ideal for dog walks. There are also many countryside walks to be had just by stepping outside the front door. If you don’t feel like venturing out then the property is well equipped, comfortable and cosy for lazy days in. We found the local shop ‘The General Store’ well within walking distance and is well worth a visit. Visiting from a busy town, a week at Journey’s End was just what we (and our little Jack Russell) needed for a wonderful, quiet and relaxing week away and I really wish it could have been for longer… we will definitely be back.

Paul - Verified booking
When we first stayed a few years ago we had a lovely holiday.
The last time we stayed, we felt the beds were a very hard and uncomfortable. The seating was also very uncomfortable. The neighbours have changed and are very noisy. Loud voices in the adjoining property kitchen at 7am most mornings, which meant that the kids were awoken early as the bedroom joins the kitchen. As you walk past the neighbours property, I found them quite intrusive. Given that I was on my holiday I wanted a relaxing time, not the guy constantly coming out to see what I was doing, pretending to polish his car for the millionth time that week. After long days on our bikes (itâs a very good location for Sherwood Forest pines and Sherwood Forest) the sofas were so uncomfortable to sit on. We were due to stay for a week and we left after 5 days because my back was in bits.
