"Fabulous holiday home ."
Owners have thought of everything . Beds really comfy and everything smelt fresh Everything really clean. Only negative was pool not open a little later. On a side note ,Sykes are becoming more and more difficult to contact ,I didn’t get a reply at all to my message ,and no other way to contact.

We are sorry you have had issues contacting Sykes - we will mention this to them on our next review with them. Property Owner

Everything you could wish for. The owner came back to me straight away regarding a query that I had and nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend and will be booking again.

"Beautifully clean and well-equipped property on a quiet site."
The 2nd bedroom was quite small for two adults to share, but we managed! The beds were extremely comfortable. The recycling arrangements on the site were confusing and poor, although this is not the owner of the property's fault I imagine. We appreciated the welcome pack - thank you - and would have liked to have spent more time outside in the comfortable seating area. But the weather wasn't on our side! Thank-you for a lovely place to stay.
Good evening Mark Thank you for the feedback - we will pass your recycling comments onto the site office with hope they make it easier for other visitors, We have noted your comments about the 2nd bedroom and will make sure future booking of more than 2 adults are aware they also have option of sofa bed in lounge for adults. Regards Sharon Charles Property Owner

"Cannot fault the site at all, neither can I fault the accommodation."
We had a minor issue which was very quickly resolved by the owners. My main complaint lies with Sykes. A few weeks before the holiday I received an e mail to say that the gym on site would not be available. I tried to contact you three times to discuss and was promised a call that never materialised. I am a regular gym user and the fact that the facility had a gym was one of the reasons we booked this particular site. As it transpired a gym would have been exceedingly useful as the last two days of the holiday were washed out because of rain. In the event we cut short our holiday. Not good service to advise of changes at such a late stage, with no offer of potential alternative accommodation and worst of all no call-back!!! Poor customer service from Sykes

"Having stayed in various property let's, Charlays was that little bit more special."
On arrival we found the lodge to be spotlessly clean and were greeted with a lovely basket of essentials, personal towels and toiletries.The lodge had a lovely homely feel and the owners Sharon and Andrew went out of their way to make sure everything was ok for us. I would have have no hesitation in returning and would thoroughly recommend a visit.
Hi Tracy Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback -we are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Charlay’s & hope to see you return. Regards Sharon & Andrew Property Owner

"Fantastic holiday at number 135!"
We were a family of 5 including a 12 year old boy. The Caravan was immaculate, like new! Very spacious living room / kitchen area Equipped with oven, toaster, microwave, fridge and freezer. Everything was like new! The location/grounds were lovely, 15 minute drive into Great Yarmouth, we visited the beach, britania pier, arcades! On site the local pub/restaurant All Barn 1 was lovely, two tvs which were showing the golf and football at the time, we had drinks there two nights and ate there one night, the food was lovely. My dad, parter and son played the 18 hole golf course on site which they said was very good! And all of us played the pitch and putt which was also good, but hard for us girls! We booked pizzas in the caravan the first night, ate at Al barn one the second night, and then we ate a big meal in the afternoon out so only had nibbles the third night. The caravan was excellently equipped with the following: Dish washer tablets Washing up liquid Bin liners Fly spray Pint glasses Wine glasses Juice jugs Juice glasses Big Knives All utensils oven Full sized fridge freezer Milk was in the fridge and butter and jams Microwave Toaster Looooads of cupboard space Bread, Swiss roll, biscuits, bottle of wine, some nice coffee sachets were in a basket for us on arrival which was a lovely touch Tea coffee sugar sweeteners Hand wash Sanitiser Sponge Tea towels Oven gloves Cloths Shower gel Shampoo Soap Hangers Bedding en suite in double bed bedroom Salt and pepper Broom Mini hoover Cooking trays Pots pans bowls Cheese grater Frying pan Board games under the television Patio table and chairs to seat 8 Kitchen table and 4 chairs Plus 3 stalls Hair dryer Clothes air dryer Kitchen roll Basically everything you could need was supplied! All in all a fantastic holiday and a lovely place to stay! Would definitely stay again!

"We had a wonderful holiday the lodge was amazing fully equipped with kitchenware nice bedding and towels, which was a bonus."
I loved that you supplied dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, tea and coffee. I would recommend the lodge to have a clothes airer to dry off towels and swimwear. Spacious decking area with comfy furniture which made it perfect for an evening drink after a day out. We will most certainly be returning!
Hi Mark Thank you for the amazing feedback we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay, the finer touches we try to achieve and look forward to seeing you in the future. We have also taken on board the clothes airer suggestion. Regards Sharon & Andrew Property Owner

"We had a wonderful time at Charlays and would highly recommend this location."
Lovely and quiet, set in beautiful surroundings. The lodge was outstanding and had lovely little touches that just set it above anything else that we've stayed at. Only 15 minutes from Gorleston beach which is must to visit. Thank you and hopefully we will have the opportunity to visit again.

"The hot water was VERY HOT and one of my party had a sore hand after using the hot tap for the first time, however once we realised it was so hot we took precautions."
The property was super clean and owners had left shower gel, hot drinks package and cookies which was a nice surprise. Location quiet with nice restaurant on site and ideally situated to visit surrounding area. Would definitely visit again
Hi Susan Thank you for the feedback - we’re sorry to hear about the water, previous renters didn’t mention so we will get someone to check the boiler settings to avoid this in future. Hope to see you in the future Sharon & Andrew Property Owner
