Admiral cottage
Lovely cottage and walks along the beach and dunes. Everything you need in one place. Only one negative thing. The hot water needs to be hotter.

Fabulous!
What a fabulous little cottage - with everything you could want. It was spotlessly clean and the welcome pack was a lovely touch. Great showers and comfy beds. The pub at the back was friendly and served great food. Seeing the seals on the beach was the icing on the cake. Winterton-on-sea is a pretty little village and we hope to return. Couldn’t have wished for a better place for dog-owners.

A much needed break
We really needed a fully relaxing break. We've had builders in at home and just needed to sit back and relax. Admirals Cottage was warm, comfortable and a great location in Winterton. Having a parking space is a boon. The rear garden is secure with good lighting in these dark nights. The beds and pillows are very comfortable. Great to have dressing gowns and the shower is first class. The log burner was brilliant. The cottage was warm and toasty. Even more so with the log burner. A metal ashes bucket might be handy to have. Lovely welcome pack. Winterton is well placed to visit the Broads. The pub is brilliant, great staff and fab food. The locals are welcoming and very dog friendly. Thanks for a great rest. It was everything we needed and our dogs were so relaxed.

5/5 Excellent
Admiral's Cottage is warm, comfortable, spotless and in a fantastic location for Winterton beach. We've stayed there several times. It's got everything you need, plus you're - literally - round the corner from a great pub (Fisherman's Return) and under five minutes' walk from the sea. Great welcome pack, helpful host. Thoroughly recommended.

Beautiful cottage
This is my second visit to this gorgeous cottage and I've already booked another stay for next year. That probably says it all. I've had a lovely time here.
