There is a large leather sofa and footstool and whilst the idea of a large white leather sofa might worry some dog owners, this has been specifically chosen for its easy clean (wipeable) surface. (Tracie and Neil who own the house have dogs of their own and lots of experience so they do know what dog owners need). Dogs are welcome to join you on it as long as you can bring your own throws with you. The flat screen TV has Sky and there is good wifi here. Kitchen Very well fitted with enough seating for 4. There is everything you need here - washing machine, tumble drier, dishwasher, fridge, freezer with enough room for raw food supplies - don't forget our local Raw Dog Food Company deliver to all our properties for free. To cook on there is a hob and oven plus microwave, kettle and toaster and a filtered water tap too. Ensuite bedroom King size bed with plenty of storage and hanging space and another tv with Freeview for bedtime viewing. The ensuite bathroom has a bath with a shower over it plus a toilet, sink and bidet too. OUTSIDE When you arrive, pull in through the large metal (electric) gates and onto the gravel parking in front of the annexe. The main house is to the right and the annexe is in front of you. Parking is in front of the pallisade fencing. The courtyard area here is the outside area for the annexe. Astroturf grass means no muddy paws and there is a hose outside too for washing it down. The bbq is a really neat one with a detachable top so you can take it over to the table and chairs outside (seats 4). There are even a couple of loungers, a parasol and beach chairs for sitting out and enjoying the sunshine! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom ### Living spaces - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Office ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Apart from the lovely accommodation, the first lovely surprise was the gorgeous welcome pack - the best we have had in all our cottage holidays. The weather was perfect and the beach was only a short walk away. Other beautiful beaches to explore nearby. We walked our dog after breakfast and spent the afternoons relaxing in the sunny garden. Our host Tracie made us very welcome and couldn't do enough for us. We will certainly be returning. ##### Lesley E.

We stayed for 3 nights and it was so relaxing Lovely quiet spot away from the hussel and bussel. Tracie, the owner was so welcoming and left humans and dogs some treats, we didn’t have to go out finding bread, milk, butter, tea and coffee. It was all provided, it was so relaxing knowing that our dogs were welcome too. We were so happy that in the evenings we could relax knowing the dogs were safe in a secure garden. Looking forward to staying again next year.

Located in a quiet and ideal location for lovely beach walks. We walked miles every day on almost deserted sandy dog friendly beaches. The accommodation was lovely and perfect for doggy holidays. The bed was really comfortable and we both slept well. Our only thought was that the bathroom would benefit from modernising as it looked tired and dated. ##### Glenda S. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 26 Mar 2024 #### Another fab stay Yet another wonderful stay at Edelweiss. I think this was our 3rd or 4th stay and every time has been perfect. It's ideally situated and close to our favourites beaches, pubs, restaurants and walks. Tracie is a lovely host and was great in providing a large crate, at short notice, for a dog on veterinary instructed bed rest! We walked miles on this holiday but came back very rested! The dogs loved their treats left for them and really enjoyed their stay. We definitely hope to return.

Lots of space, very comfortable and very dog friendly. Kitchen was well equipped and catered for all. Lovely box of treats on arrival, dog included. It was great to discover there was a farm track nearby to give access to the coastal path and in easy walking distance of Happisburgh lighthouse and Cart Gap. Tracie the owner was very friendly and always on hand for any needs. I really enjoyed my stay, even relaxing in the sunshine outside the cottage. I returned home refreshed, recharged and longing to return again. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 16 Jul 2023 #### Great Cottage Really enjoyed our stay. A great welcome from Tracie who even delivered fish and chips to us. The property is lovely, just right for Two people. The little garden is set back from the road so feels private and although I'm not usually an fake turf fan it works here and you can nip out in your socks with the dog. A reasonable stroll to the pub and beach. You will be able to see the (magnificent) resident hounds from the kitchen window but they are very quiet and completely unreactive to your presence. Well kitted out cottage with a very comfy bed and great welcome pack to get you started. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 7 Apr 2024 #### A great place for a getaway break We had a short week away before Easter, and the Edelweiss was ideal for the two of us and our 3 dogs. The owners live in the attached property and were fantastic, friendly, chatty and I’m sure had there been any issues, they would have resolved them straight away. It’s a lovely location and probably be even better in the summer months. The welcome pack waiting for us was unexpected and such a great thing for them to do. As it was my birthday during our stay, there was a bottle of wine to go along with the milk, bread, butter, chocolates, cookies, eggs and dog treats (think there was a couple more bits I may have forgotten). The test is always, would we stay there again… and yes, we definitely would.
