"We had a lovely stay at Home to Roost."
It was very spacious, plenty of room for 5 adults and 3 dogs and very clean. We picked the property as it was so close to the beach and the garden was secure which was perfect for our dogs, and what we wanted. As other reviews have said, Eccles on Sea is a small seaside village with nothing there but you are not far from amenities if you need them. I would imagine in the summer and good weather it is lovely to have a day on the beach and then back to the house for a nice meal sat in the garden. We hired a boat for the day on the Broads, (Martham Boat Hire) visited Great Yarmouth and Wroxham. I would recommend this property if you are staying in the area.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Home to Roost so much."
It was a fantastic surprise as to just how lovely this accommodation is, and so spacious. Tastefully decorated, with lovely artwork, and beautifully furnished. A real home from home with everything provided that could possibly be needed. Comfy sofa and chairs and beds, with good quality bedding. The games room was a bonus.
A booster switch meant plenty of hot water and the choice of bath or shower. The location is marvelous with a 1 minute walk to the beech. We didn't want to leave and we can't wait to visit again. Thank you so much for a lovely stay.

"Our stay at Home to Roost was a nice one, we have given a few suggestions for the owner to look into and unfortunately some negative feedback about the locals on the estate."
Accomodation was lovely however could do pegs for the washing line as there were not enough to hang a load of washing out and a fire guard would benefit guests with children as it would have been nice to use the fire but we could'nt because of the children and the option of a stair gate would be a good idea. Unfortunately I do agree with other guests about the bed in the main bedroom we found it very hard, uncomfortable and I came away with a bad back.
We did also find that the 9am check out was very rushed even though we packed the car up the night before and my daughter had to leave without giving her baby a bottle and had to do this in the car, plus I always clean the cottages before we leave. I understand that the cleaner has to do more now with Covid but I am sure that 10am check out would still allow her to clean the cottage as the next guests do not check in until 4pm.
I dont like to bring this up but I have to as we were were made to feel so uncomfortable and not welcome on the estate. On one occassion my daughter drove into the estate with her children below the speed limit I might add and a man stepped out to stop her, when she opened her window he was ranting and raving at her to watch her speed, she obviously wasnt going fast as he would not have been able to step in front of her car to stop her and you cannot go fast around that estate as the roads are not the best. We also said hello to numerous people on the estate and was totally ignored, the neighbour spoke to us and a couple over the way that turned up on the Friday, like I said we did feel unwelcome, this was such a shame as we liked the cottage and how close it was to be beach.
We have been on many cottage holidays for over 15 years now and this is the first time and with regret that I have had to give some negative feedback which is a shame.
Thank you for your feedback and I am sorry to hear about any issues regarding people in the village, unfortunately this is completely out of my control and surprising to me as everyone is normally so friendly in Eccles.
Unfortunately, I can't comment on whether the lady was speeding or not but it's unusual for someone to complain about someone who would be driving within the speed limit.
Check in and out times are specified on the key collection prior to arrival and I have multiple cleans to do on the same day, therefore a tight schedule to keep to. However given prior notice I am happy to consider reasonable adjustments based on personal circumstances so in this case having a young infant in the property.
I am sure that you will appreciate that beds seem to be a personal preference some like firm some like soft so it's a difficult one for me to comment on hence why I have a good mix of type in the house.

"Lovely, really spacious house equipped with everything you could need."
House was spotlessly clean on arrival. Big secure garden. Amazing location: right next to quiet, sandy beach which is perfect for dog walks and kids to play safely. The location is also really quiet.
Our only points for improvement are firstly both showers are poor, water pressure not sufficient and temperature either boiling hot or freezing. (There's a lovely bath in the ensuite with a great shower attachment though, if you are happy to wash hair in bath).
Secondly, the bed in the main bedroom is really lumpy and uncomfortable and left us both with sore backs. The other beds are absolutely fine though.

The house has everything you need and is spacious. We went during the week when the weather was extremely hot. Perhaps some bigger fans might have helped but you can’t predict the weather! We contacted the owner at the beginning of the week for a parasol for the garden and a broken light in the bathroom and he couldn’t have sorted it any quicker. We really appreciated the effort he went to to sort things for us. Would certainly recommend this house for anyone wanting to be close to the beach and part of the Norfolk Broads. Thank you.

"The beds on the ground floor and the sofa are very very uncomfortable - the sofa was very low and for someone with back and knee problems - I struggled to get comfortable on the sofa - thank god for the two arm chairs."
The mattress was too hard for my liking (personal preference more than anything).
I am not sure if there was a problem with the pre-programmed hot water system - but we never seemed to get any hot water, even with a "boost" to the system. Both bins were full upon arrival, we put them out on Thursday as instructed but only the green bin got emptied, so the next person going into the cottage will struggle to be able to put their rubbish in the bins.
When we arrived we had someone knock on the door trying to sell " a new driveway", which made us un-easy all week, as we weren't sure if they were just chancing it, or watching the cottage and my dog !!
Just a couple of recommendations - One or two USB sockets and a shaver socket would be favourable around the cottage and a hot tub in the garden.
Despite these little grumbles, we had a lovely relaxing week. The dog loved the enclosed garden and the fact that the beech was on the doorstep.
I would most certainly book again - but would love to see the sofa replaced first.
Many Thanks

"We had the most wonderful week at Home to Roost."
It is a truly beautiful house and located so close to the stunning beach. After reading a couple of earlier reviews, I was slightly concerned what to expect. Yes, there are some very large potholes on the roads leading up to the property, but just drive slowly. The water pressure was absolutely fine for us. The kitchen was very well equipped, the beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were lovely. Having a wood burner was a wonderful addition for our cosy evenings. It was a shame the board games had been removed (understandable during the current pandemic) - it would have been nice to have been informed prior to our holiday as we would have taken more with us. It is a lovely property and we would love to return.

"Unfortunately this property was not up to the standard we thought it would be."
the woodburner was out of action, the shower pressures were so bad we just gave up using them. the pots and pans were dirty. my mum cut her hand pretty bad on a chipped plate. the bedding and towels need replacing. the sofa has seen better days and was very uncomfortable. you can't have the windows open as the doors rattle so badly. the area leaves alot to be desired, the roads going in are appalling. the water was either stone cold or boiling hot, we had to wait 3 hours inbetween baths as the hot water run out. the TV in the upstairs bedroom we could not watch as the select button on the remote didn't work. the TV in the downstairs bedroom just kept breaking up. also just having freeview was really bad considering there is nothing around and the the picture was very poor. no shelves in the bathrooms or anywhere to put anything. the bathroom leading into the kitchen is very difficult as people watching TV in the lounge can see you as there is no living room door, not good when your in your towel! I feel overall a bit of money needs to be spent on this property to make it more comfortable.
I was sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your stay at Home to Roost.
Unfortunately the storms damaged the wood burner flue exposed to the outside lements.The wood burner was out of order for your stay and has now been replaced with a brand new system. Luckily the weather was mild for your stay and all the heating system was operational as normal inside the home. The electric showers are both 10.5kw and again we're checked during maintenance week straight after your stay. I can confirm they are working fine.The hot water system was checked, this is fully operational also.
The location of the property being so close to the beach and it's rural settings means that no gas is available in the village. So the hot water system is a storage type cylinder. It needs to be heated via an immersion. A full tank will comfortably do a full bath and more once the controller has been pressed. The showers are working all the time as they are electric. This is all on the property description prior to booking.
I'm sorry to hear your mother cut her hand on a plate. They are checked each week and a chipped plate was not spotted. All pots and pans are cleaned and checked during changeover.
The sofa is fully leather and was recently deep cleaned and conditioned. It's slightly lower profile is its design and not because it's worn out. There is the options to use either of the 2 Parker Knoll armchairs that are standard height if you prefer and other chairs dotted around the home. I have not noticed the windows creaking, they were all brand new fitted when the home was renovated within the past couple of years. Thanks for informing me of the TV remote upstairs, I can confirm the batteries needed replacing however for peace of mind a brand new one has been installed. Property Owner

"Very spacious, very clean, warm and well equipped property with a lovely good sized completely escape proof garden for my three whippets."
My only complaint about the house was that the the double bed in the upstairs bedroom was the hardest most uncomfortable bed that I have ever had the misfortune to sleep in.
It was so lovely to have just a 2 minute walk to miles of clean sandy beach where it was rare to see more than a few people. On the last day we saw seals bobbing in the sea just off shore and every day saw large flocks of wild geese flying over.
The location of the property is extremely quiet and peaceful.
However anyone visiting needs to be aware that the roads on the estate are not made up and there are extremely large and deep potholes which often stretch the width of the road. During our visit they were full of rain water and it was impossible to gauge the depth of the holes. Be warned that it is very easy to damage your car and you need to take great care - particularly at night as there is no street lighting.
There are some beautiful National Trust properties nearby and although the houses were closed due to Covid the grounds were wonderful.
Overall a very enjoyable stay.

I have just 3 tiny points of note to make this place PERFECT.

The property itself has a nice enclosed garden with comfortable garden furniture and off road parking, however the roads are very bumpy and you need to drive very slowly to and from the property. Inside we found although very spacious the furniture was very uncomfortable and needed replacing especially the the beds! A very good clean is also required and the leaking washing machine needs attention as there was water all over the floor after we had used it, there was no mop and bucket so had to mop up with towels! Would not recommend this property for anyone with any mobility problems as there is a step in the kitchen and the floor is uneven in places.

We found it the opposite. Lounge furniture was much to soft you actually sank into it. And was difficult in getting up.
Kitchen was not flowing more crammed into spaces.
Dinning room was ok .
Bedrooms also ok apart from the beds. I know people like to sleep on a mattress that stops roll together. However these did the job to such a good degree. That they are probably made to encourage roll apart. Uncomfortable and what seemed like a ridge between us prevented our usual sleeping position.
Garden was a good size and very secure.
The drains struggled to drain away. Making many noises as they did.

"Fantastic location to explore the West Norfolk Coastline."
Great accommodation, clean, warm with plenty of room, a few yards from the sea. The Road onto the Bush Estate is uneven with large pot holes in places - but passable with care. The property stands on a good-sized plot and parking was easily accessible. The garden was enclosed and there was a back gate which was great for bringing our black lab round to the rear of the property for a good clean after a day on the beach - the outside tap was very useful! One thing we would have found very useful was a tumble drier - especially in the winter months but this is a minor point. We travelled 370 miles from North Devon to explore Norfolk for the first time and we were not disappointed. Great walks along the coastal path, friendly neighbours and local people - especially in Happisburgh - a lovely community that is sadly slipping into the sea - we were shocked by the extent of the coastal erosion. Thank you - hope to return soon in the near future.

Love the back garden all enclosed so very safe for our 2yr old pet spaniel who I have to say had the time of his life. Literally 2mins walk to the gorgeous sandy beach. We have been at this location before so knew the area. Cafe Sea Palling about a 50 min walk along the beach. Walcott 10 ish mins in the car for amazing fish & chips. We went to view the sea lions and pups just a little further up from sea palling, that was amazing. Cromer is not far and many other locations are close enough by car.

"Home to Roost has been renovated to a very high standard."
It is newly decorated and immaculately clean. The kitchen is spacious and really well stocked with tools and equipment. It is perfect for families with 4 TVs, a games machine and board games and a super, 100%safe garden for children and dogs. Downstairs bedroom and bathroom make it a good home for older visitors but there is one step to negotiate so not suitable for wheelchairs. A large outside table and benches make dining outside easy. Depending on the tide the beach is just a short walk up and over the dune and a scramble over rocks - or a short, easy walk on a flat walkway when the tide is in. For prams it can be reached by a short walk towards the camp site to a ramp. The beach is clean with gorgeous, soft sand . A great location if you like to avoid noise, amusement arcades and crowds. But also short driving distance from great garden centres with coffee shops, Cromer and Norwich.
