"Beautiful cottage by the sea, the cottage was beautiful, well equipped and a perfect place for a relaxing holiday with the beach literally a minutes walk away."
The property has large grounds and the beach is very clean and Happisburgh is about a 20 minute walk down the beach and the local pub is excellent with amazing food and hospitality. Would highly recommend this cottage.

"What a fabulous holiday house!"
Perfect for our 3 generation family and accompanying dogs. .
Love, love, loved the conservatory games room - pool, darts and a juke box and loads of games and puzzles. The beach is wonderful walking and goes on and on. Extra special seeing so many seals between Horsey Gap and Sea Palling, as well as at Horsey Gap itself.
Hot tub overlooking the sea is extra special after long walks.
Photos don't do this house justice - both living rooms are huge and furnished with very comfortable chairs and sofas. All bedrooms comfortable.
Bonus to find that the slimline dishwasher, that we were expecting from the description. has been replaced by a full size dishwasher, thank you.
Everywhere we visited was ultra dog friendly.
Thoroughly recommend a holiday Beach Haven.
Thank you for the wonderful feedback. We are very glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you come back again.

"We arrived as a family of 6 and two dogs, we had the best time, the bedrooms ..."
We arrived as a family of 6 and two dogs, we had the best time, the bedrooms were large, kitchen was really well equipped, we brought loads of bits with us like washing up liquid, kitchen roll etc but all was provided, living room was very large and comfortable, bt tv including films which was great, the best bit for us was the games room, pool table, darts boards, board games, juke box and all in a large conservatory, we spent most of our nights in there enjoying all the games, there was also a beer fridge in there too, the garden was just huge and the pictures didn’t do it justice, loved the hot tub, great for people watching, garden furniture was in a great spot as was shielded by the wind, I would definitely recommend this property
Very glad you enjoyed your holiday! Thanks for the great feedback. :-)

"The property was fantastic, loved it."
Just a shame that the issue with the door was not notified to us and the maintenance team didn't come out to it, but aside from this we loved it
Hi, I am sorry you had difficulty with the trifold door during your stay and the handle broke when you tried to open it. We were not aware of an issue before that but the stiffness was likely caused by the salt air from the sea. The parts have been replaced and the door repaired. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay otherwise.

"A lovely property, very well equipped and comfortable beds."
As a family of 7 we had more than enough room. A very nice find and very sad to leave. Missing my morning coffee watching the seals from the garden. Look forward to coming back some time.

"The house was very clean and tidy and had a huge range of appliances and gadgets."
The garden was absolutely ideal for the dogs. It was fully enclosed and very spacious for them to have a good run.
The hot tub was an added bonus that was easy to use and enjoyable to use.
The beach was incredible with the dogs being able to have long runs.
Overall, we could not fault anything and would like to thank the owners for providing such wonderful accommodation.
Thanks very much for the lovely review. We're very glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you will come back again. We do try to think of everything our guests would like and are making improvements when we can. It's still only our first year so hopefully by the next time you come, it will be even better!

"Myself and family with our dog stayed at Beach Haven at the end of March 2024 and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves."
Lovely and clean, access to the Beach probably a little safer from the road than the garden but still very close. We had a lovely walk to the local pub a few times, really friendly people and great food. No need to really go far as Beach Haven has everything you need including the lovely Hot Tub looking out to sea. Thank you for a wonderful time, highly recommend.

"We had a superb week away in this very sociable home."
The property accommodated our party of 7 comfortably. The games room/sun lounge is a great area for socialising and was well used as was the jukebox with great selection of music. A very well equipped and sociable kitchen. The hot tub at the end of the garden and overlooking the sea was lovely. We have two medium sized dogs, so the enclosed, wrap around gardens were ideal. Lovely beach beyond the garden, which, with dogs, we found easier to access from the track at the front of the property. Will certainly stay again.

"Very enjoyable say for a long weekend in March."
Had a problem with a bedroom radiator and a smoking wood burner which have been passed on.
The advertised private access to the beach does in fact go down to the narrow beach wall which is about 8ft above the beach. Handily the beach access is a few minutes walk from the property and is a wonderful place to walk at all times of the tide. We are returning in September!

"Beach Haven is a lovely, spacious, clean, well equipped property."
We loved the games room and the hot tub. The hot tub is at the bottom of the garden with a super sea view. You can access the beach from the garden by walking about 50 metres along the sea wall and then down steps.
Take a torch if you do this at night!
The kitchen has all you need ( but only one bin bag was provided). Our only
criticism was that the dishwasher was very small, not really adequate for the five of us.
We were impressed by the prompt service by the friendly maintenance men when the juke box ‘stuck’.
A generous supply of logs for the wood burner meant we could have a fire each evening or dance under the glitter ball, play darts or pool, all great fun.
Thank you.

"We absolutely loved are stay at beach haven."
The bungalow was very clean, beautifully fitted and furnished, very well equipped and the games room was amazing for all of us.
There were a few things that let it down slightly, they are as follows
The juke box kept not loading certain cds and would show an error code and stop playing, lucky I'm a mechanic and managed to get round this but it is a reoccurring issue.
The wood burning fire door needs adjusting and possibly the rope seals need replacing as it's drawing in too much air and rips throught the fire wood as it can't be restricted.
The hot tub is a lovely feature and the reason we chose beach haven however we felt it wasn't hot enough despite being max temp, also the placement on the cliff edge would be lovely in the summer however the wind chill really did spoil the experience and I would personally move the tub close to the house. Also closing the tub lid and securing out in the dark at night was quite tricky as the lighting isn't great.
The mains water pressure is terrible, the main bathroom shower is incredible however the on suite shower isn't as good.
Overall we loved our stay at beach haven however there are some things that could be improved which would absolutely make this property perfect.
Thank you for feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. I am sorry you had an issue with the jukebox. I will get that error message fixed as soon as possible.
Regarding the wood burner, we do not believe there is anything wrong with the door seals or the speed at which it burns wood. My husband and I were there recently and noted it took half an hour to burn one briquette, which we think is fine. We do supply quite a few briquettes so there should be adequate to use.
About the hot tub, the water temperature is set at 38 degrees and I would not want to set it any higher for health and safety reasons. It does get cold and windy sometimes on the coast, which can't be helped, but we believe the location overlooking the sea is perfect and seeing the moonlight on the water makes up for any brief chill after getting out. We will certainly get some improved lighting there to assist with fastening the cover.
Regarding the water pressure, you said the main shower is incredible so it can't be that bad! :-) I have used the ensuite shower many times and have not noticed any issues with water pressure or have had any other feedback about it, so it is hopefully okay.
Once again, we're very glad you had a good stay and appreciate you taking the time to give us this detailed feedback, which we will take on board.

"Absolutely beautiful."
Fully equipped with everything you need. Stunning property and very comfortable. We had a small problem with a radiator and someone was there within an hour. Amazing service! Can’t wait to visit again…. So we can use the hot tub… Couldn’t use on this visit owing to freezing strong wind… but it not spoil our holiday one bit!
Also, it was wonderful to see the seals at Horsey Gap!
Thank you for a lovely holiday.

"We absolutely loved it, such a lovely place and so well presented, so well catered for too, amazing kitchen and utensils, literally thought of just about everything you could possibly think of or possibly need - we did leave our champagne flutes as only type of glass that wasn’t already there but we didn’t need to take half of what we crammed in the car :-)
Enclosed garden was wonderful, hot tub amazing, so nice to relax in on New Year’s Eve with bubbles and bobble hats!"
Conservatory / games room amazing, so nice to have the lights and Christmas tree up too, such a thoughtful touch. We had many games of pool and darts, we loved the disco ball too. Unfortunately the juke box had an error so we couldn’t use but it looked fab, we had taken our own music so no big deal, only suggestion might be for a chalk board by the darts board.
The welcome pack was a nice surprise and we really couldn’t have asked for more, we loved our stay and only wish it was a little longer.
Thank you - we would 100% recommend

"Beach Haven should be renamed Beach Heaven."
It is a beautiful house in a remarkable position. The hot tub is spectacular on a cold starry night.
The conservatory gets the sun in the mornings making it a bright warm place to sit and listen to the Dukebox.
I would definitely recommend this beautiful family holiday home.
