My family and I spent the half term week at Robins Rest. The house was wonderful, very clean and a good sized space for 6 adults and 3 children. An incredibly short walk to the beach and the kids absoloutely loved the hot tub. Our hosts were fantastic, and regularly checked in with us to make sure everything was ok. They even stopped by one day to provide us with a few extra amenities we had requested. Bacton was lovely, but is very quiet. Fortunately there are plenty of places to visit just a short drive away.

A fabulous holiday cottage only a short walk away from a beautiful sandy beach. The property is of a very high quality, everything looks new and clean. Would highly recommend this cottage if you are visiting north Norfolk. A great base for visiting the broads and Great Yarmouth to the south, Norwich just to the west, and all the beautiful coastal villages and towns around the north coast, simply perfect. So glad I found it.
