    Lovely bright comfortable cottage

  • Barbara Druce

    We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage in the small seaside village of Winterton-on-Sea. The captain’s cottage was very comfortable and well appointed, with the coast being just a short walk away. We certainly look forward to staying there again. We found it especially useful having a well-stocked general store a few minutes’ stroll away, as well as a very nice pub, which also boasts a comprehensive food menu, just across the road from the cottage.

    A lovely thatched cottage which was spacious & very warm. The cottage consisted of 3 bathrooms which were all on the ground floor (2 with showers & 1 with a roll top bath), there were also 2 twin bedded bedrooms & 1 double bedroom with the most comfortable beds & duvets.The kitchen was very well equipped too.There was also a very thoughtful welcome pack awaiting us & was decorated for Christmas by the lady owner of the cottage.The Fisherman's Return public house was just across the road & served a decent Full English Breakfast for £12 & a good Gluten Free Vegetarian Breakfast which was also £12.The corner shop was a couple of minutes away as was Poppy's Tea Room & the Fish & Chip Shop.The beach was a short walk away from the cottage & also has a cafe called Seal View.Would we go back to CaptainsCottage, most definitely Yes.
