East View Reviews

John
East View is simply fabulous. It is large, well equipped and brilliantly located. I recommend it very highly.
Trudi
Great location, very short walk to the centre of Cromer and beach. Property clean and tidy, also well equipped. Would definitely book again. Only downside is the parking, just the one very tight parking space at the property. I left my vehicle at a nearby car park for the week, £44 for 7 days which also covers the vehicle to park at any other NNDC car park for the duration of your ticket which is useful.
Claire
Lovely comfortable, spacious house - very well equipped. We were five adults, and there was plenty of everything. Excellent location, just a couple of minutes walk to the sea and to shops, pubs and cafes. Lots to do in Cromer, and plenty of other places only a short drive away. Car parking was fine, and there were always spaces in the surrounding roads. The weather wasn't kind to us, but we read a lot and played a lot of scrabble!
Susan
This is our second visit to East View and everything was great as usual. Very comfortable accommodation, great location, everything you could need for a wonderful holiday!
Tina
Fantastic location and well equipped property.
Alison
We had a lovely stay in Cromer. The house was close to all amenities and nice and comfortable. We would definitely go back
Elaine
A very spacious house close to the church and coast with excellent amenities. Very well maintained with plenty of books, games, helpful leaflets and even OS maps. Highly recommended.
C
We loved our stay! The perfect house for our extended family plus 4 legged friends! The house was very well equipped and had everything we needed (the pool table was a massive hit with the teens). Weâ??d definitely book again
Carolyn
Lovely house in amazing location a short walk from Cromer centre and beach.
Susan
This house is an excellent holiday rental. Very comfortable and extremely clean, wonderful location, perfect holiday retreat.
Rosie
Well located for town facilities, spacious and well equipped.
Samantha
Brilliant cottage! We had a lovely week with 6 adults and a toddler. The house is bigger than the pictures and description make it look with lots of bathrooms and spacious bedrooms. The kitchen is one of the best equipped I've ever come across. Location is fantastic- walking distance to beach, cafes, restaurants and shops. We were slightly concerned about parking, but managed to find spaces for two cars nearby with no problem. The parking space at the back is accessed by a narrow lane, so be aware that if you have a wide 4x4 or similar, you probably would struggle (our Astra was fine). Would definitely recommend!
Jackie
Fantastic location. Well equipped and a lovely big table that seated 10 to dine and play games. Lots of information at the property.
Kathleen
Fabulous, quirky house, which is quiet but really close to the shops and the seafront. We loved the wood burning stove and it was great to have the logs provided. We all really hope to return. Thank you.
