Guests say
Silverdale is a spacious and comfortable bungalow, ideally located just a short stroll from the beach and local amenities. Guests appreciate the large, secure garden, making it perfect for families and dogs. The property is well-equipped and homely, with many returning visitors. While some areas could benefit from updating and deeper cleaning, and the access road is a little rough, the overall experience is positive, with most guests enjoying a relaxing and convenient stay.
Several guests found the property clean and tidy, but there are repeated mentions of areas needing a deeper clean, such as cobwebs, dirty ovens, and musty bedding. Some guests left the property cleaner than they found it, indicating inconsistency in cleaning standards.
The location is highly praised, with the beach just a short walk away and local shops and takeaways nearby. The only negative is the private access road, which is rough and potholed, but this does not detract significantly from the property's excellent position.
Guests consistently mention the spaciousness, warmth, and comfort of the bungalow, with large bedrooms and a homely feel. Some found beds or mattresses uncomfortable, and a few noted issues with slippery floors, but overall comfort is rated highly.
The bungalow is well-equipped with kitchen utensils, baby equipment, and a large garden. However, some facilities are dated, with issues reported regarding the oven, hob, and showers. The property would benefit from some maintenance and updating.
There are no mentions of welcome gifts or extra thoughtful touches in the reviews, so a score cannot be provided for this category.

This property requires a thorough and deep clean!!!!! Pungent odour of dogs and stale smell throughout the property which permeated clothes and coats hung in the hallway. The oven was dirty and greasy and billowed smoke when used, setting off smoke alarm. Shower in bathroom was unusable as it sprayed either freezing or very hot water - we considered it to be quite dangerous. The property was left a lot cleaner than it was found. The saving grace of this property is that it is in a good location, only a short walk to the beautiful beach of Bacton.We will be holidaying in Bacton again but NEVER this property.

We came home 2 days early for the following reasons:-1) The bed that was made up was very uncomfortable.2) The electrics in the accommodation needs to be completely replaced. 3) The oven and grill were so full of grease that it smoked badly and set all of the smoke alarms off in the accommodation.4) There were large notices everywhere warning us to NOT LET THE DOGS ON THE FURNITURE OR THE BEDS!!!! We found this very insulting and obviously the owners had decided to put ALL of their paying "guests" into the same BIN5) On the subject of WASTE BINS, there was yet another notice telling us to empty all of the bins into the dustbins before we left!!!!6) Do the owners want their accommodation cleaned for them ??7) The bathroom needs to be replaced (the sink is cracked) and all of the drains and plugholes could do with a good dose of bleach - including the separate 1950's WC.8) The very dangerous slippery laminate flooring in the lounge needed some rugs to safely walk on to avoid accidents.9) The garden is not very dog friendly with piles of old grass cuttings dotted around plus a rather large RAT visits the premises daily. Plus there was a lot of building and decorating noise from next door9) We left this property a LOT cleaner than we found it. Needless to say we will NOT be booking this property again.

An excellent property and so near the amazing Bacton beach. Could do with slightly bigger towels. Much bigger property than we expected. Comfy beds and clean.
