The Penthouse

The location to the beach and the view of the church.

When we entered the property the carpets were dirty and I had to give the place a hoover before the rest of the party arrived. The whole place felt very run down, dusty and not really clean. We did a clean of both bathrooms and floors just to get ride of the dusty/musty smell. Not ideal when you pay a cleaning fee. I then had an issue with getting the hob to work. The owners didn't know how to give clear and quick answers on how to get the hob working. We had very young kids and as the owners where at a Pantomime, they advised they would get back to us after the show or during the interval. The kitchen itself is not suitable for the amount of guests that the house holds. There is only a single door fridge freezer and a single oven and grill. The kitchen size proved difficult for storing food for 11 over the Christmas period and cooking one dish at a time due to the size of the oven. There are two good size bathrooms but you can't use both showers at once. This was very inconvenient as we were a party of 11. Where the Penthouse actually is. The entrance door is off a main road next to card factory shop (personal opinion). A photo of the front of the Penthouse should be on the site or a note that it's next to a shop.

The location was absolutely perfect - close to the beach and the high street and a lovely view of the church. Great layout, fully equipped and lovely and warm. Owners were easily contactable too.

It was great we could sleep 12 people but there weren’t enough seats in the living room for 12 people, and the dining table wasn’t big enough for 12 people. But we worked around that.

Very nice property in a fabulous location with lots of room for everybody.

More worktop and storage space required in kitchen.Loft rooms very cold.

Fantastic central location. Great outdoor terrace space. Very clean and tidy with everything you could need to make for a very pleasant stay.

Kitchen work space was very limited but this certainly doesn't detract from the positives that this property offers

Location, cleanliness, bathroom and showers.

A great property in a great location. Very good comms from the owner too. The Penthouse had everything we needed and we were very well looked after, especially at such short notice.

Had a wonderful stay at the Penthouse. In a perfect location. The place was warm and homely. All the bedding was clean and fresh. Comfortable beds, apart from one (My teenage son said it was fine!!) Most were memory foam. Kitchen was lovely. Plenty of crockery, glasses and cookware. T.V had Netflix, Amazon etc. You just need to sign in. Keybox was very easy to use. Family of 11. Varying ages. All said they had a great time. Recon we will be back.

Packing to come home!

The flat is in an amazing location, we loved being able to see the church and high street from the window. The kitchen could be a little better equipped - no peeler, potato masher and very little prep area. The terrace area is perfect for a bit of extra space for the kids, and a handy drying space for wet suits after the beach. Super handy to have the co-op right below to nip down to, as well. Overall we were very impressed with how well presented the property was, it's size, location and all the information re parking etc that Alexandra sent out was very handy. Would stay again, and would highly recommend to a large family group who are ok with lots of stairs for access. Loved it! Thanks.

really clean, plenty of beds

Can sleep lots of people but living room could certainly do with another sofa or something as only really sits 5. but we used the outdoor bean bags!

The location, the decor, roof terrace and the size were excellent.

Great location for a beach holiday. The house was decorated beautifully with plenty of sleeping space. Loved the terrace with table tennis table. Very good communication with the host. Lovely views from the bay windows, perfect view for Cromer Carnival.

The kitchen could have been better equipped and set up for larger groups. There wasn't enough space for everyone to sit together, there were only 7 of us and we struggled to fit in the living room. A bit noisy at night from people and the church bells!
