Seaview Cottage | East Ruston Cottages
Living Room Two lovely big sofas to seat 6 and a chair. The room is a proper cottage living room so we can't fit any more big sofas in but there is other seating in the kitchen. The new electric woodburning stove delivers instant warmth and comfort without the hassle and mess of a wood burner. Operational by remote control with optional smoke effects; can your dogs tell the difference? There is a wall-mounted 40" flat screen TV (with Freesat) and some lovely art works. From here into the...

Ensuite Bedroom 4 Kingsize bed with lovely comfy mattress. 40" TV with Freesat box. The bathroom has a shower, another loo with a view and a whirlpool bath. Lie in this, enjoy the bubbles and the sea view too. There are double doors opening out onto the glassed balcony (flush to the wall) looking over the garden so you can enjoy the fresh air and sound of the sea!
All about the outside
The garden is a reasonable size and fully enclosed with a nearly 6ft high thick hedge, backed with a solid fence – really secure! You can hear the sea and the gulls from the garden with just a field between you and the sea. There is a garden room with sofas in for sitting and enjoying the sun or an evening barbecue (provided) and a dog poo loo to save using plastic bags AND a warm dog shower too.
Your pack can really let loose in this garden on their holidays – Seaview Cottage has such a secure boundary!
Please note: No smoking in the house please. The house is semi-detached – please do respect the neighbours' peace and quiet and not allow dogs to bark too much in the garden or children to make excessive noise in the house. IF you would like to leave your dogs unattended in the house, and you are not confident they will be settled, please contact us for free dog sitting. The lane access to the cottage is a single track, residential lane – please travel along it slowly for the safety of all. If you would like your dogs to sleep on the beds, just let us know and bring your own bed linen. The hot tub is no longer in use at this property.

We had a wonderful time, Leonie was so helpful, the cottage was very warm and well appointed. Hearing the waves crash on the beach from the house was mesmeric. Would highly recommend this property.

Sea View Cottage
Sea View was a lovely warm cottage, very well equipped, spacious rooms and secure garden. 100m walk to a lovely sandy beach and pub ( Poachers Pocket ) 500m via road or beach. We spent a week here for New Year celebrations, 6 adults and 5 dogs and loved it. We will definitely be returning. 5*

Fabulous dog friendly holiday cottage in an amazing location, so close to the beach!
We had an amazing short break here & were so pleased the location & cottage offered everything we could want. A short drive takes you to many dog friendly beaches, woods & National Trust properties & coastal towns, but the bonus is the few yards walk only to get to the local beach where the dogs can run free on an expansive stretch of sand, & you can walk to the pub!

Peaceful haven by the sea
We absolutely loved our stay at Seaview cottage. Having the beach on our doorstep was perfect for our family. As it is so quiet our nervous dog was able to relax and live his best life; he even came off lead at some points which is totally unheard of.
The cottage has everything you need and is in a great location for exploring the area.
We love using East Ruston cottages for our doggy holidays and this is definitely one of our favourites so far.

A stunning cottage so close to the sea
We absolutely loved everything about our stay at Seaview Cottage. The location is amazing, so very close to the beautiful sandy beach, you can walk along the beach to nearby cafes and a fish and chip shop. The cottage had everything we could think of and was very clean and comfortable - the dogs and us felt immediately at home. Fantastic homemade cake to welcome us. We wanted to stay forever! Would definitely jump at the chance to go back - it was just perfect

Sea - view
What a great location - loved the fact we were a few yards walk from the beautiful beach in a lovely quiet location.
Seaview Cottage was really comfortable and peaceful to stay in - the main bedroom and en-suite have amazing sea views - so was great to read and relax in
Absolutely everything you could think of was provided for the dogs and humans - raspberry cheesecake for the latter was delicious and very much appreciated
Thanks for a perfect stay

Our stay at Seaview.
We all had a wonderful holiday at Seaview. The dogs loved the beach running in and out of the sea. The local pubs and eating houses were very good. The cottage was clean and tidy, and had a wonderful sea view. Well worth considering again at some time.

Sea view
We had a lovely time. beautiful cottage. Very short walk to the beach. The path to the beach runs right past the lounge window , which can cause the dogs to bark when people walk past. The local cafe and pub are very dog friendly.

Another wonderful week at Seaview Cottage
This was my second time staying at Seaview Cottage and it didn't disappoint. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable and cosy, and it's so lovely being able to walk and walk along the beach. Leonie had baked another of her delicious cakes and my dogs loved the treats waiting for them at the cottage. We had an amazing time and look forward to booking more holidays with East Ruston Cottages!

5 stars – A peaceful, dog-friendly getaway
We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage. It’s exceptionally well-equipped, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully laid out to make you feel right at home. Every little detail had been considered, which made for a very relaxing and comfortable break.
The location is peaceful and scenic, being so close to the glorious Bacton beach – perfect for long dog walks either way, towards Mundesley or Happisburgh. All the beaches along the coast were a short drive and offered something different, and many were ideal for off-lead exploring. Our dogs absolutely loved it, and we were amazed at how dog-friendly the whole area is.
A lovely extra touch was the delicious Victoria Sponge cake and gluten-free cakes waiting for us on arrival – so appreciated! This was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, and we wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend it to others.

Wonderful cottage
Loved this cottage, spacious with 4 double beds, comfortable, warm and small welcoming touches. Secure garden for the dog. Private and close to the beach.
It was well equipped , only negative was the sofa has lost its firmness and you struggle to get out.

Fantastic dog friendly cottage and garden
What a lovely comfortable cottage! Sofas and bed very comfy, very well equipped kitchen and modern bathrooms. Large garden completely enclosed so it was great to have the french doors open from the kitchen diner knowing our dog was safe. Dog towels and toys if needed. Located on a quiet road taking you to the beach with no through traffic

Super stay at Seaview
Our second stay at the lovely Seaview Cottage. We were welcomed back with a delicious homemade cheesecake, fresh flowers, local dog treats and the sound of the sea! Just a very short walk down to the beautiful Bacton beach. Perfect, secure garden for our escapee beagle and everything you could need for dogs is provided. We had trips out to Bacton Woods, Winterton, Colman's farm shop and the lovely Eden shop in Stalham. Lots of dog friendly cafes and restaurants nearby. The views from the upstairs bedrooms are wonderful and you just can't beat listening to the sea. Thank you Leonie & team ERC for another great holiday.

Another excellent property
Our first visit to Seaview Cottage & what a great week it was! A 1 minute walk to the beach, a top floor suite with amazing views of the sea & a super enclosed garden for the dogs. The cottage was filled with lots of extra touches, Leonie's famous cake went down a treat & 2 very happy but tired dogs had the best time exploring the area. The weather was OK, we caught up with some friends, went swimming in the sea & a spot of fishing at Potter Heigham. A fabulous week in our happy place.

Beautiful dog friendly cottage by the sea
We have just returned from a x4 night stay at seaview cottage in Bacton. All of us including my x 3 dogs thought it was perfect for what we needed.
The house was well stocked with all the provisions you could need.
The location was great for beach access and local shops and takeaways.
The track up to the cottage was a little bumpy and uneven.
Overall though it was amazing and we can’t wait to come back
Thank you very very much.

Relaxing, comfortable, dog friendly
Lovely cottage, clean, comfortable & 2 minute walk to miles of sand. We had a lovely relaxing week, the weather was perfect to take our dogs for long beach walks then back to snooze on the comfy sofas. The house had everything we needed. The garden was totally secure. The owner was only a telephone call away if needed & the delicious welcoming cake on arrival was a kind touch.
We are definitely going back next year.

Sea view cottage
Had a lovely week at sea view cottage perfect for what we wanted peace and quiet, the owner was very helpful and make us a wonderful welcome cake. As with most east ruston cottages it was well equipped and clean and as always perfect for the dogs.
Although I will just say having visited many of there cottages we are finding they are all getting very expensive. Sea view cottage is a large cottage so is quite good value for money and we will probably go again.
