About this property

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...

    Kitchen/diner
    Modern fitted kitchen, all open plan. Plenty of room, fitted oven and hob, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, kettle etc. Plenty of crockery and cutlery and everything you need to cook. Wooden table and chairs for 6. You can open up the double doors and go straight into the garden.

    Laundry room
    Washing machine and plenty of storage for boots, coats etc. and...

    Downstairs toilet and shower
    Walk in shower cubicle, sink and higher standing Burlington toilet.

    Bedroom 1
    Just off the kitchen this bedroom has a motorised king size bed, adjustable at the press of a button for additional rise whilst reading, eating or assisting guests to bed. Drawer space and views south out of the front of the cottage across the lane and field. 40″ TV and Freesat box. Back into the house and through the living room to go up the stairs (straight and not too steep, with a bannister) to the…

    Upstairs loo
    WC and basin with a view. You can see the sea when you wee!

    Bedroom 2
    South facing double bedroom with plenty of hanging and storage in a separate closet. Views across the fields towards Bacton Abbey. Some beautiful pictures decorating the walls. TV and Freesat box.

    Bedroom 3
    Sea views from this smaller double bedroom with drawers, lovely pieces of art and a TV and Freesat box.

    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.

Fantastic Seaview Cottage!

An amazing house on the beach track at Bacton - everything you need from a holiday home and more. Great location literally metres from the beach with virtually no passing traffic and fantastic to hear the sea from the garden and see it from upstairs windows. The dogs absolutely loved the enclosed garden and we knew they were safe and couldn't get out, and again everything you need for a brilliant holiday, even dog beds and home made dog treats left for us. We will absolutely be back.

Fantastic dog friendly stay

As the owner of a bully breed, finding pet-friendly accommodation is a constant struggle so finding this cottage was a real relief. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcome. Our boy absolutely loved the beach and sea, and getting him to leave each day was a battle! By the time we were heading home, he was giving us his best disapproving look from the doorstep. The sea view was stunning and the cottage was everything we needed. We would love to book again, highly recommended to any bully breed owner who's had a hard time finding somewhere suitable.

Lovely seaside cottage

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!

Amazing cottage practically on the beach

Second stay at Seaview and we all had an amazing time again. The cottage itself is very cozy and has everything you could need and more. More spacious than it looks from the outside. The beach is a very short walk out the front door and down some steps! The dogs are also well catered for with the bonus of an outside warm shower, good for washing those sandy paws. The human’s can use it too. Nice size secure garden which was well used by our 2 Westies. Leonie left us a beautiful homemade cheesecake to enjoy on arrival which was delicious! We look forward to returning.

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.

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

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

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.

A very comfortable cottage, within sound and (upstairs) sight, of the sea. Perfect for families dogs

This house was a hit with the whole family - computer game playing lad, sun-worshipping teenager, dogs, adults and crocks - great! The house was perfectly positioned - only a couple of minutes stroll down a quiet lane to the steps to the sandy beach (a bit scary for the crocks, but there is a conveniently placed bench for viewing purposes). Both the garden and the beach were perfect for games, and the lovely nearby rentable private swimming pool and sauna were also enjoyed by the family. A comfortable well -equipped kitchen, with plenty of chairs around a big table was perfect for evening board games etc and a cosy sitting room, with sofa throws for the dogs too, made for a happy family gathering. Four comfortable bedrooms (including a beautiful en-suite master, with sea views) and a downstairs bedroom, with an electrically adjustable bed - perfect ! A bathroom, shower room and a further loo meant that were no fractious waits, and we could all get sorted in time for the day’s plans. We all had a great time and made happy memories and several came home a little fitter, toned and tanned. Thoroughly recommended.

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!

Fantastic dog friendly cottage and garden

What a lovely comfortable cottage! Sofas and bed very comfy, very well equipped kitchen and modern bathrooms.

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.
