This is our second stay at chimney springs and it is perfect for us and our two dogs. A great location for the beaches and the dunes at winterton for long walks plus there are two great secure dog fields locally too. The bungalow is very spacious and in a lovely peaceful cul de sac which is perfect for a relaxing stay. The kitchen is really well equipped and there is everything we need for our stay. Very clean and comfy and great support on hand if needed. There is a bus stop very close that goes to Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft and nearby shops in hemsby for groceries. We will definitely return next year.

Have just got back after our third visit to Chimney Springs. We love staying here. It is a very comfortable home away from home. Every thing you might need is supplied. The garden is beautiful and completely dog friendly. The local Chinese and Fish & chip shop are amazing.We love this area as you are only a few miles from beautiful beaches and of Horsey Gap to see the seals. We will definitely be back. Just wanted also to say a big thank you to Mel the owner for all her help.Would definitely recommend a holiday break to Chimney Springs. 😊
