We have taken a 2/3 self catering breaks every year for over 25 years and by comparison found this property to be disappointing Location is great for being close to the town/quay, facilities but.
.. The property was hard to find, there is no evidence of the property name Eastdene House displayed anywhere. We guess that this may in the past have been hung on the metal frame at the front of the property which is now empty. We are quite resourceful and do have Sat Nav but even so it was not clear that we had 'arrived at our destination' The property information folder was lacking in so much that it only contained the WiFi code info and a summary of the Co-Ops opening hours and telling us there were lots of places to eat - that was it. Usually we find that there is contact information for emergency doctors, dentists, vets etc, information on re cycling, which bins to use for what on what day etc, recommendations for places to eat, information on the use of appliances, PAT testing and fire certificates for the property etc - all sadly missing all of which are reassuring The TV reception was dreadful, continually dropping the signal The property needs some TLC. No kitchen patio door window blinds, the fittings are there but no blinds, the en-suite shower ceiling is unfinished/messy and the patio doors were very fiddly to lock and unlock Parking was a bit of a free for all, we were okay but the other two apartments had a bit of a dispute as one had blocked the other in. On upset lady knocked on our door early one morning to ask if it was our car! We are still waiting to hear back from our question to Sykes sent the week before our holiday regarding a request for additional parking (which the instructions said we could request) for one night and also or the location of the key safe! Previous reviews have suggested some hooks behind the doors which the owners have reviewed and said are not necessary - these would have been a great help The garden/yard is extremely overgrown. The shrubs both by the front door and all around the yard a badly in need of cutting back - it would double the size of the yard if this was done and make such a difference. The back gate lock does not line up and prevents the yard being made secure - oaky for us but would be a worry if young children were staying there And, no hospitality tray or even a pint of milk in the fridge! In all our years of self catering there has ALWAYS been at least a pint of milk and a few tea bags waiting for us Interestingly there was no Guest Book to complete. Its always good to read what other holidaymakers thought and where they have visited/recommend and if they are return visitors Fishermans Retreat could be a fabulous property with just a little more attention to detail. The location is great, the two bedroom two bathroom facilities are a big plus and the beds are very comfortable.

Fishermanâs Rest is great little property in a brilliant location.
The kitchen was really well equipped, the cooker was great and itâs so nice to have a full size fridge freezer. The courtyard style garden was lovely. The bed was very comfortable and there was good storage throughout. It felt rather compact for 4 adults, but we were there for two family birthdays so had extra things we wouldnât normally take on holiday. I feel it could be improved slightly by having hooks on bedroom / bathroom doors for hanging up wet coats (we had to hang them on dining chairs to dry out which made the living room space feel even smaller). The unfinished bathroom ceiling in the en-suite let it down a tiny bit, as the rest of the property was beautifully finished. The shower itself was fantastic. Finally, some coasters and mats to protect the furniture would add a nice little homely touch. Loved the art on the walls, especially the seals! It was a little hard to find in the dark, so slightly more detailed instructions would have been great, and given its location would be very easy to provide. My husband has family in wells so knew some lovely walks from the door and showed how fabulous the location is. Parking for one car was great, and made it really easy for loading and unloading. The extra space requested was street parking. We managed fine in November. Everything worked well. The heating was simple to operate (loved the remote control!) and very effective on the few colder nights later in our stay. It was a quiet and peaceful place to stay, minutes walk from town and the quay. We would definitely stay again.

We absolutely loved the fishmansâ retreat!
From the moment we walked in, we felt comfort, warmth and at home. We would highly recommend, the retreat is so spacious, we never felt as though we were crammed (although, there was only 2 of us plus our dog). We only stayed for a weekend, however there is a full sized fridge freezer, dishwasher, plenty of crockery, cutlery etc. We would 100% return and stay again! Itâs so close to the quay, you could walk into the little town, enjoy a coffee or a wander! Also, only a short drive to the beach! Just a few things for improvement: - The living room is quite dark with no natural light, towards to evening it would be nice just to have a lamp rather than the bright ceiling lights. - The finishing touches in the rooms - in the en suite of the main bedroom, the ceiling is very shabby, a light fitting is hanging out (not dangerous) but cosmetically, it would just be more appealing to the eye if these finishing touches were complete! - We thought the garden was completely fenced and safe, however our dog managed to escape between the bushes as towards the drive, there is no fencing. (I know the listing does say to check boundaries - please do! As there was a huge bush in place, we just assumed there was no escape route however, there is!) - On arrival, it would just be nice to have tea and coffee to welcome, luckily we packed some, but just for a heads up - thereâs none there! Thanks for such a lovely visit, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful Ground floor apartment, three minutes walk to the harbour, five to the High Street, pubs and there was a local Nisa supermarket.
You can park right outside. There is a step into it plus step down to the bedroom and kitchen and outside . The sofa is so comfortable, so are the beds and dining rooms seats. Lovely bedding and towels. Two great shower rooms. The kitchen utensils are basic, no tea towel or oven glove provided. The dishwasher either needs salt and rinse aid, there wasn't any to use, everything comes out cloudy . Had to wash everything by hand. The courtyard garden is pretty and private, the table needs replacing. Great for the dog, had bbq . The door to the garden is hard work to close and lock, needs looking at. The tv was a major problem, lost all channels, could only use and watch catch up channels , nothing else. Regularly didn't switch on. Would highly recommend getting crab from the van in the car park in the harbour, there daily. Dressed crab was delicious. Also the Chinese takeaway is one minute away, great food. Over all , a great holiday. Perfect weather all week, loved Wells, the apartment was comfortable in such a close location to walk to everything . The dog had a wonderful time too!

There are two steps within the property, which are not mentioned in the write up.
(between living room and en-suite bedroom and between kitchen and living room) They may only be 5-6cm high, but sufficient for someone to trip up over (we had a 93 year old with us and fortunately he grabbed the dining room table to stop himself). There were no manuals for any of the appliances in the accommodation. There was no manual for the tv and when the tv lost all channels, I had to phone the owner - who had to then find out themselves how to retune the tv, before they could phone us back to inform us. (Even though the cottage is in north Norfolk, the tv regions shown were Yorkshire, East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire or NEWCASTLE! There were no other region options available. Not a lot of use when trying to find out the local weather)! There is also a loose ridge tile laying in the valley between the tiled roof areas at the front of the property. If this had fallen during our stay, it would have landed on our car.
