Firstly I would like to say I have never left a review before but on this occasion I felt that somethings needed to be made clear. We enjoyed our time at Bacton and this is just a cautionary tale.The pros.Proximity to the beach in second to none around 40m. The beach itself is spotlessly clean, and huge. We were the there on the spring bank holiday 2026 which was during the heat wave and whilst the beaches around us were rammed Bacton was practically empty, it was fantastic. The cottage was very well stocked with equipment and the beds were extremely comfortable. A nice welcome pack aswell.The cons.The stairs were ridiculously steep and not for the faint hearted. Anyone with knee problems might struggle. Headroom with some very low unpadded concrete beams were a challenge. The decorative order could do with an overhaul although we appreciate this has been done to be in keeping with the age of the property, and is down to personal taste.

3 The Warren is a real home from home with everything you would need for a self catering holiday at any time of year. It is a clean, comfortable, qwerky, little flint cottage literally about 30 seconds to the steps down onto the fantastic sandy beach - May to September it is a 'no dogs' beach, although people did take their dogs on it there. The dogs allowed beach is only a 3 minute walk up the sandy path and then you can walk north for miles with the dogs free. Bacton Woods is a couple of miles away and definitely worth a visit. Unfortunately the cottage is fully booked so we are going to have to wait until next year for a return stay!
