Perfect location right by the beach - we travelled with our three dogs and it was perfect. Hardly ever had to put them on leads. The property is spacious and very clean. It’s also close to a local pub (about 5 minute (if that) walking distance) which served good food and there is a small shop within a 2 minute walk if you forget anything. We would definitely return again.

The property had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The secure garden led directly onto the sand dunes, which provided an extensive and safe place to walk our dog. Access to the sea was good too. The one thing we couldn't get on with was the oven, which in our hands didn't get at all hot.

Nice clean property, comfortable sofas and bed, lovely garden that’s secure for dogs. Fantastic beach behind the property that’s dog friendly.Ended up getting takeout or eating out in the evenings as the oven and hob are very dated, it takes the oven an hour to get up to temperature, all the symbols are worn off so you don’t know which setting to use (there is a instruction sheet on the wall but you still can’t tell which is which). There is no instructions for the microwave so wasn’t sure how to use that either. Kitchen could do with some basic things like food tongs, pizza cutter, a whisk, some roasting tins/trays, salad bowl, pasta bowls, would have made things a bit easier.But saying that, we had a very pleasant stay and really appreciated the lovely welcome pack that was left, thank you! 4 dishwasher tablets and 2 toilet rolls to start us off was also appreciated, maybe a couple of washing pods in case of accidents ( like spilled milkshake!) I had to go out and buy a whole box just for one top! Ample parking for at least 2 cars out the front and you can even leave the front door open if things get too hot in the kitchen as it’s all fenced off and gated to the front so dogs can’t escape. Winterton itself is a lovely place with a pub, a chippy and a shop that sells just about everything! We would definitely go back.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this cottage. You truly cannot beat the location—it’s just a stone's throw from the beach and the dunes, which made for some incredible morning walks.It is 100% dog-friendly and our dog loved it as much as we did! The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and felt very welcoming from the moment we walked in. We were especially blown away by the amazing welcome goodies left for us, such a thoughtful and delicious surprise!The kitchen was impressively well-equipped with everything we needed to feel right at home. The beds were comfy and too. A huge thank you to the hosts for being so generous and making our stay so seamless. If you're looking for a relaxing, high-quality getaway in Winterton-on-Sea (especially if you have a dog), I can’t recommend this place enough. We will definitely be back!
