Newby

A wonderful holiday in a very clean and homely bungalow!

! ....owners very helpful and even arranged wonderful weather...sunshine every day. Plenty of areas of interest.....we shall definately be revisting!! Superb holiday.

Bungalow was lovely and homely.

lovely garden Lovely fish and chip shop near by And many places to vist I have booked for next year Looking forward to my next stay. My furry freind loved it here and the garden Was just the right size to relax in.

We enjoyed our stay at Newby.

The kitchen had all that you require. The beds and lounge were comfortable and the shower was excellent. The garden is enclosed and made it secure for my dog. The owners are lovely and are just a call away if you have a problem which we didn’t. I would recommend Newby to anyone wanting a home from home stay.

Would stay again, Nice cottage in a quiet area with a secure garden for our dog.

Lovely Bungalow in a quiet location, a convenience store just around the corner, chip shop and pub all within a 15 minute walk.

The description of the property is accurate, comfy , spacious with everything you need along with an enclosed safe garden for your dog. We would highly recommend this property and we will definitely return in the future.

Very nice property clean and well maintained.

Have been before and will go again

Really enjoyed our stay at Newby The bungalow was great very clean and everything we needed for our week away Will be back to stay at Newby next year Definitely recommend this lovely bungalow

Newby (Gayton) is in a great location and it's straightforward to to travel to all areas of Norfolk.

The bungalow is very dog friendly with a totally enclosed garden. We really enjoyed our stay over Easter.

Newby is a clean and warm bungalow, which is easy to find in Gayton.

The bathroom is modern with a nice shower, and the kitchen is well equipped, with all appliances easy to use. The garden is fully enclosed, ideal for a dog. The only downside is the phone signal and tv reception. However, this wasn't a problem as using WhatsApp on the phone and iplayer on the tv were the answer. It was only BBC where buffering occurred. I would recommend Newby, Gayton has all the services you would need.

Such a comfortable homely feel to this property, well equipped and warm and the garden was perfect for our dog.

Close to everything we like to do and see in NW Norfolk but tucked away in a quiet road in a village with a super butchers, chip shop and pub. Ideal for us and hope to return

Property very comfortable.

Plenty of space. Modern kitchen and bathroom. Nice and central for the places we wished to visit. Biscuits and doggy treats awaited us.

The bungalow was excellent.

We had a comfortable week . Nice and clean.

Nice place to stay.

Very quiet with friendly locals. The owners were helpful with advice on dog walks. I would recommend to a friend or anyone wanting to stay in the area.

A lovely place to stay.

Friendly contact with the owners (Mr and Mrs Leigh). Just perfect. This was our third visit and will come back again.

We had a great visit to Newby, the bungalow was clean and comfortable.

A great location for visiting sandringham and other great houses. We shall return.

Very comfortable stay at this property with everything we needed.

Very good Had great time Owers helpful Lots of places to see

Newby is a clean, comfortable and well-equipped detached bungalow in a very quiet cul-de-sac in the village of Gayton, six miles east of King's Lynn.

We spent a very pleasant week there in April 2025 and intend to go again.

Everything was as described.

Did not want for anything. Particularly liked the rear garden as it was dog proof, ideal for our Jack Russell.

This was our second stay at Newby and we will be booking again.

The bungalow is very clean, comfortable, well equipped and very conveniently located for visiting surrounding towns. The owners are pleasant and helpful if you need to call them for any reason. I would recommend Newby for a nice relaxing holiday.

Fabulous home from home base to visit the north Norfolk area.

The property is spacious and well maintained. Every gadget you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Bonus having the enclosed garden for us. Will definitely be staying again

We had a lovely 2nd stay thank you, also thank you for letting us arrive earlier and leave later, that made a big difference to us with the shorter and cold days.

We like the bungalow as it's quiet and will stay again in the future. Thank you

We stayed 1 week in this lovely cottage at the beginning of December.

It was a genuinely positive experience. Home away from home. This cottage is very well stocked, quiet neighbourhood, cosy and dog friendly. Just 3 hours from the Channel Tunnel. Close to Kings lynn. We hope to return next year. Philippe

The cottage was clean,tidy and comfortable.

Well appointed. The approach was not good as the front and back gardens were badly in need of maintenance. The television picture kept breaking up and was mostly unwatchable. Driving up to the bungalow did not give a good impression.

Lovely bungalow great location very comfortable.

Lovely stay thank you very comfortable and cosy

Everything you need is in the property.

Lovely quiet road not far from chip shop but not too near either. Take a torch at night no street light nearby. The petrol station had the cheapest petrol around. The property was clean and warm and great for our dog too. I would certainly return.

This was our first stay at Newby and we were delighted with it.

The bungalow is very comfortable, both the beds and also the furniture. The location is perfect too, easy to get around and not too rural. The owner was available if required but not intrusive. It has everything you need for a lovely holiday. The dog was welcome, there were bowls, towels and even a fleece for him and a jar of dog biscuits too. I would highly recommend it and am planning to book again for next spring.

A comfortable, well equipped property in a quite cul-de-sac.

It has the benefit of a bus route to King Lynn and Fakenham just around the corner. There are many walks and footpaths from the village.

We had a very enjoyable stay at the cottage it was very clean and well presented

2 TVs would have been better to entertain the whole family.

Signal was quite often lost on the TV meaning on occasions we were unable to watch certain channels

Cottage was lovely, although the settee was uncomfortable.

We loved Newby a lovely bungalow to stop at and the village of Gayton too we used the butchers and the pub really nice , the area has so much to see and do, we will definitely be back

This is a really lovely bungalow , it has everything you need & in a lovely peaceful area but close enough for visiting the surrounding sights.

We really enjoyed our stay & would highly recommend staying here.

We had a lovely time and the cut at the bungalow it was clean it was lovely the dog loved it and all the facilities were there and it was very nice we intend to book next year maybe a little bit later on the year thank you very much for your tell the people who owned a property it was lovely thank you it's great place to go from anywhere so we can get out

Home from home welcome our dog was excellent and so comfortable & spotless lovely.

The place felt welcoming as soon as we stepped in.

It was a lovely place to stay and it was great to have an enclosed garden for my dog. Not far from lovely quiet spots like Old Hunstanton or the busier Hunstanton. Really enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend this holiday let to anyone looking to holiday in North Norfolk - have booked again next year!

Lovely bungalow, very clean everything you need, good location to Explore Norfolk thank you

A beautiful bungalow.

Very well cared for with love and pride. Everything is spotless and comfortable. Kitchen has everything that you need. It was good to have the central heating as the weather was very cold. The bungalow is a credit to the owners. Thank you.

A real hiiden gem a great place to stay.

Also a great place for someone with physical disabilities who can only manage one or two raised steps. Lots of places to visit close by and the village itself it lovely, a great pub and friendly people. Good for dogs too.

Wonderful bungalow, perfect enclosed garden for your dog.

Excellent parking. Quiet cul-de-sac. Cosy and comfortable. Lovely pub in the village.Petrol station with shop is walking distance. Would highly recommend for a stay.

Newby is a nice bungalow, it is clean and well equipped, the only downside we found in order to keep warm we had to have the heating on all the time.

However we did have a very relaxed week away after what has been an extremely traumatic 2 months.

We so enjoyed our stay at Newby.

It is comfortable and has everything you need. Fab garden for dogs. Gayton is a week-situated,super friendly village. The owners are also very friendly and very kind. I thought I had lost the key and they were so patient and understanding. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Lovely village very friendly place.

The bungalow was very comfortable with everything you needed. We have family living nearby so ideal for visiting and going out and about.

What a lovely place.

It’s in a lovely quiet area, no interfering from neighbours. Property was a lovely size with everything you needed to have a relaxing holiday. Owners were lovely, in touch before our stay and were more than happy to help if you needed anything (we didn’t thankfully) We would happily recommend and go back again if in the area.

We had a lovely week at Newby.

It’s very well equipped and the owner was very helpful in supplying us all the information we needed prior to our visit and there is a helpful folder made available on arrival. The only slight negative was we found the king size bed a little hard as we both have back issues but a memory foam topper would solve the problem very easily. Would book it again.

Comfortable bungalow in a quiet location.

This is a nice cosy property, it has got all the equipment that you could possibly need.

the owners left us a nice packet of biscuits for when we arrived .There are a number of beaches that you can visit in the car, all just a few minutes drive away. Sandringham is close by and Kings Lynn shopping centre. We would go back.

The property was very clean and had everything you could need for a relaxing home from home holiday.

We enjoyed our time at Newby, the area is very quiet lovely.

The bungalow was comfortable although we did have problems with the t.v breaking up. I could not find a hairdryer which I thought was strange. The garden was lovely but needed some tender loving care.

We had a lovely weeks holiday staying at Newby The bungalow was lovely very clean and comfortable Everything we needed to enjoy our holiday

We enjoyed our stay at this comfortable bungalow.

Several nearby dog walks. Good base to explore this area of Norfolk. I had one issue with central heating controls and Tony promptly visited and explained it to me which was excellent.

Good place for family.

Well equipped. (It will be appreciated if you can provide a hair dryer ) Shope 3 minutes walk away .Good neighbors.Thank you Owner

Excellent cottage.

Good location for us and convenient for Kings Lynne. Friendly and helpful host. Really enjoyed the stay and facilities. Only 1 suggestion. An oven dish suitable for cooking a Chicken would have been handy Thanks Gareth

The owner had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and welcoming.

Although I brought my own dog towels and blankets for the furniture these were provided. Also provided were tea towels though again we brought our own. All bedding, towels, heating etc included. Dog biscuits and biscuits for us on arrival too. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend bungalow to anyone.

We have enjoyed 5 holidays at this property.

Very comfy. Had plenty of walks for Barney. Found the people who live in the village very pleasant.

Warm, clean and comfortable - but, there was a leak at the base of the toilet which wet part of the bathroom floor; and, most important, reception for mobile phones was almost zero; also, there was no access to internet for our laptop.

Having spoken to the owners, who were pleasant/apologetic, it seems this is a usual problem. It should be made clear prior to booking.

Very nice bungalow nice and clean

I did encounter a problem with the heating system but have to say the owners were great!

They came to sort it immediately they were told. When it unfortunately happened again,the owners were once again brilliant & we’re straight on it! Could not fault them. The bungalow was very nice & accommodated my mobility needs with the exception of a disabled height toilet but I took my own toilet raiser, so no problem. They even thought of the dog by leaving treats! The property is well placed to visit both the coast, places of interest & has two good pubs serving lovely food.

Great stay in this comfortable, well equipped cottage.

Good location - not too far from most attractions in Norfolk. It was nice to have a washer and tumble dryer, as we have a very adventurous 4 year old, who likes to get muddy! The shower at this property is amazing too. The only slight issue was the lack of ventilation in the bathroom, as towels etc didn’t dry if left in there. All in all, a great cottage.

The one problem we got was we could not use our mobile phones because it kept coming up no service, we had to walk about half a mile down the road to make a phone call or send a text,we are plusnet phone company.

Lovely place to stay near to plenty of dog walks and not too far from places to visit

We had a lovely 2 week stay at Newby a very comfortable well equipped cottage with closed in rear garden ideal for our wee dog Rudy.

It is an excellent base to explore the area and we would definitely book again if coming back to Norfolk

One of the best equipped properties we have stayed in so clean and comfortable I would definitely recommend this property thanks for a great two weeks.

A lovely rental that was very well equipped.

We two adults stayed with one small dog but feel it would be a tight fit for 4 adults, especially if they wanted to cook and eat in. The kitchen was very good with excellent oven and hob but the lounge/diner quite small so it would be a struggle to fit around the dining table. A very nice bathroom with brilliant shower.

.

Newby was very comfortable and restful, plenty of useful information about Norfolk. Very good information book for any problems with appliances and other general information. Would highly recommend. Was surprised that there were no bio-degradble bags for use ib the food recycling bin.

The facilites was the best in any holiday let we have stayed in.

We could not of expected more.

Lovely bungalow in quiet cul de sac.

Good equipment and facilities. Perfect.

This bungalow is in a very quite road.

The village is very pleasant, the people are very friendly especially dog walkers. We have been back a number of times to this bungalow and would recommend it to anyone. Hopefully we will be back in 2023

It a very nice little bungalow and village And nice and clean nice land lady

An excellent property.

It was very comfortable & had everything we could need.

The bungalow was very nice and comfortable.

It had everything we needed and was in a good spot for touring the areas around it. It was a shame that the bathroom did not have a bath, as this made it difficult with a two year old! The shop/garage in the village can get very busy, but the ASDA store just outside Kings Lynn is not bad and you can get fuel. We visited the Walks in Kings Lynn. It is a wonderful park. Great for walking dogs and with a brilliant children's play area (different areas for different areas). Hillside Shire Horse Sanctuary at West Runton is fabulous. There are lots of different animals: goats, llamas, pigs, sheep, geese etc. Currently it's free to enter, but any donations help to care for the animals. We also managed to pay a visit to The Worlds Circus. They travel over Lincolnshire and Norfolk, and have deals on prices. It was really, really good and well worth the money. Some of the acts were truly amazing. There was a problem with the smoke detectors going off early in the morning. As they were hard wired, the owner came straightaway to deal with the problem. We would definitely return, and recommend the bungalow.

Great holiday home in a quiet Norfolk village.

Perfect base for exploring this quaint part of the country.

We had a really good time bungalow was nice grandson didn't like all the spiders though in the bedrooms lol but we enjoyed our stay again a good holiday found through Sykes wouldn't use anyone else to book holidays with

Second time in this wonderful cottage, just the place to unwind and visit locations in the area.

Comfortable and spotless.

Very comfortable bungalow in a quiet cul-de-sac.

Area perfect for touring around

Lovely bungalow, very clean.

All the facilities you could want. The dog treats and our treats were a lovely touch. Would recommend this holiday bungalow highly. Good position in the village with shop and fish and chip shop nearby. Excellent.

The bungalow was in a quiet location idea to explore the area Comfortable and clean would recommend to friends

Lovely bungalow, very comfortable.

Excellent shower in a good size shower cubicle. Fluffy towels including bath sheets. Pleasant enclosed garden suitable for dogs and youngsters. Loved the duvet cover in master bedroom with Norfolk coastal scenes. Despite the weather we had a lovely holiday. This bungalow is in a quiet cul-de-sac in a small village. Highly recommended. Claire & Bill Massey.

Weather was dry and bright but North wind was very cold.

Still this did not spoil our holiday which was very dog friendly. Bungalow exceeded all expectations, situated in a nice quiet peaceful village. Have already recommended this property to friends. This was our 6/7th Sykes holiday and once again we were not disappointed. We only use Sykes for holidays in this country and with our dog being made so welcome, we no longer holiday abroad. So we have a week in April and 2 weeks in September. Thanks you Sykes for giving us peace of mind when making these bookings.

This is our third holiday in Newby.

Perfect weather.

Very comfortable and cosy.

Lovely little garden and excellent location - in pretty village and within travelling distance of lots of beaches.

Great bungalow in a quiet location.

It was very well equipped with lots of room for a group of three people. The beds were very comfortable and it was central for venturing out to see the surrounding area. We had a very relaxing break!

Communication and attention of the owners was so reassuring.

A lovely place to chill out and relax.

WELL WORTH THE COST OF HOLIDAY

Lovely clean bungalow in a convenient area of Norfolk.

Property bigger than it looks on the photos and a nice secure garden for the dog and kids to play.

The bungalow is in a quite close in the village.

Near fish shop, butchers and garage with mini market. Many pleasant walks around the village. This is our second visit and we will return.

Everything was just fine.

Pleased. Thank you.

Newby is lovely, the best holiday let we have ever stayed in.

Even though it is dog friendly there was no doggie smell or half a ton of hair. Everything was working we could even log into our Netflix on the TV, which was fab as storm Dennis carried on through the week. I can not fault this place we will be rebooking again.

I am disabled and found the driveway to be uneven and difficult to negotiate, also, the pathway from the driveway to the bungalow entrance was restricted by over growing plants.

Oter than that, this property was adequate for my needs.

Lovely bungalow.

Really felt like a home from home with everything we needed. Lovely little touches left for us like dog biscuits etc. Highly recommend and would love to stay there again

Property was lovely, no fuss or frills just everything you needed.

Great location for getting about. Great food at the local pub, neighbours were friendly and would definitely visit again.

it was a very clean well kept bungalow we travelled about to different places a good located bungalow, it had every appliance in the kitchen you could need, very clean very comfortable really enjoyed our holidays Heather and Les

A very nice detached cottage in a quiet village.

Ideal place in which to have a peaceful and relaxing holiday.

Spotless and very comfortable beds and sofas etc.

Well equipped cottage in a fantastic location for exploring Norfolk.

Really impressed with the equipment for dogs ie dog bowls and treats etc.

Although the weather could have been better we still managed to go out and about.

Ideal for walking the dog and visiting different places.

No problems.

A fairly good centre to explore Norfolk but stay out of Kings Lynn unless you know the way and beware of lack of road signage.

Lovely quiet street - no noise at all!

Very clean, very well equipped kitchen, secure garden so kids and dog can’t escape.

On a nice and quiet cul-de-sac so no passing traffic. Nice little village - great fish and chip shop just a few minutes walk away. Would highly recommend

We arrived 13 Oct and all was OK to start with.

On Sunday 14th the weather got chillier and we tried to put on the central heating only to find the boiler broken and it wouldn't come on. Phoned the owner immediately who came round quickly but couldn't get the boiler working. She supplied a convector heater for the bedroom and the living room had an additional flame effect blow out fire. An engineer inspected the boiler on Monday 15th and identified it needed a new part which was sourced and fixed but not until Thursday 18th. Myself and wife are well in our 60's and in addition my wife is disabled. We found it particularly cold in the mornings and evenings in the kitchen and bathroom and it did honestly affect the enjoyment of our holiday. Although the owner did try to help and kept in regular contact the lack of total heating for 4/5 days was not good. I feel a level of financial compensation would be appropriate for the inconvenience we suffered. Please advise.

not really everything excellent

no phone signal in the village

Very nice bungalow clean and bright with all facilities needed in a Quiet location Ideally situated to visit all towns etc where you would want to visit in Norfolk.

Best cottage we have stayed at!

The holiday home was very comfortable, and a very home from home bungalow, everything need was in there, it is situated in a quiet cul du sac and ideally situated for touring that part of Norfolk,

Lovely quiet village, good pub and friendly neighbours

Couldn't believe how nice the bungalow was we are used to staying in static caravans, but this far beyond what we were expecting, when we arrived there was a pack of biscuits and some milk the bed was very comfortable.

The neighbours were very nice, if you like stargazing there is no light pollution so you could see lots of stars. Pity about the mobile phone coverage, but it didn't stop us from having a really relaxing holiday.

Was very easy to find, book and more importantly Sykes maintained contact with us from booking to just prior to our holiday start date.

All info sent to us via emailed contact - meaning much less paperwork coming through our letterbox. We arrived at Newby just after 3.00pm to be welcomed with a lovely packet of our favourite biscuits plus a small carton of milk in the fridge. Honestly right down to tea-towels etc.. We were comfortably provided for. I will not laden down our car next year with towels, tea-towels, cleaning consumables etc... because it was all provided. Just after arriving the owner Catherine came to welcome us personally - what a lovely gesture! We really enjoyed our stay at Newby, Gayton and found its' location so convenient for the nearest town Kings Lynn and the A149 Coastal Road up to the Northern Nature Reserves. We even had two meals out at the Crown Pub in Gayton Village and would recommend the menu to anyone - We had the Sizzling Salmon one night and at the end of the week we ordered their Beef and Ale Pie - would recommend this highly Hopefully we will be booking again for next year.

We arrived a little early so we met the owners who made us very welcome and took the opportunity to introduce us to the place.

The cottage was wonderful, special mention to the shower - probably the best I've ever experienced!

Very clean and comfortable and in a quiet location.

One of the best showers we have had.

Lovely property and appreciated a welcome pack of nice biscuits and milk.

Nice area and lots of useful information on local services and attractions. Will definitely book again.

Just like home from home with a lovely garden

We had really cold weather, so it was a lovely warm and cosy property to return to each day.

Good location for exploring other counties.

This was a really lovely bungalow, in a nice quiet location.

Very easy to travel to different places within north Norfolk.

The peace and quiet of newby

the beer at the local is dear.

no evening buses.duvet is too thick for summer.

Cottage owners were very good and communications was very good indeed.

Hopefully all holiday booking will be this good.

Quiet location with the property very well kept and equipped by the owners.

The off road parking accommodates a large vehicle (Range Rover) with no problem. Handily located for King's Lynn and the coast, I will definitely use again when I head back over to Norfolk!

The cottage was as described: comfortable, homely and very welcoming.

It was a home from home and it gave us a chance to relax and be.

Newby bungalow was accurately described in your brochure but exceeded all expectations.

Well equipped & spotlessly clean it was such a comfortable stay. The garden was perfect for our elderly dog. Good location for days out. Area peaceful & quite- perfect for a relaxing holiday. Please thank the owners for us we had such a lovely holiday.
