Turned up and the sun was out. Unfortunately the weather got gradually worse. Swallowdale is a great place, geographically and comfort wise. We never wanted for anything. Third visit and sixth to Norfolk (last four with East Ruston). Highly recommended.

A perfect week- Swallowdale is very well equipped and spotlessly clean. An amazing welcome pack on arrival for us humans and for the dog. Out of all the dog friendly accommodations over the years Swallowdale is by far the best. Would definitely recommend and hope to return.

This was our second stay at Swallowdale. Comfortable, and a quiet location, makes this a relaxing place to stay. The location is ideal for short drives to the beach, several National Trust sites, as well as shops in North Walsham or Cromer.

We came to stay here to visit Thursford which is just 40 mins away. It was great to be able to bring our dogs with us and be able to leave them in the property for a little while. Not all holiday cottage companies let you do this. We also had a recommendation for a dog sitter called The Fairy Dog Lover and she was great. She came to meet us and called to feed them while we were at Thursford. The property was so practical as well with non slip vinyl flooring throughout and access to a secure garden. The welcome pack was also great. Everything you need for a first nights stay and also included lots of doggie treats. Everything was comfortable. The village is very quaint and it was easy to walk the dogs although you do need a torch at night. The pub was excellent and was well stocked and did great food. It's a good place to have access to the coast and also North Walsham is only 10 mins away with all the services you need. Norwich is also not too far away. Would totally recommend this place
