We stayed in Dormy, Happisburgh with our sometimes reactive whippet and two teenagers, and he settled here better than he has anywhere else. He took to the bungalow straight away and was soon roaching out on the sofa, which he does constantly at home but has never once done away.

Both gardens are enclosed, which took a lot of pressure off. Parking is off road in the front garden, and the quick path to the beach next door but one makes getting out with a dog very easy.

The bungalow is a good size for two adults and two teenagers. The girls loved having their own TV in their room. The beds and sofas are really comfortable, the table was perfect for us, the wifi was good, the kitchen was well stocked and the welcome pack was fab.

The french doors are at the front of the property, so our dog had a good view of the road/track. It is a reasonably quiet one and passing traffic is occasional rather than constant. It needed a bit of management rather than causing any real problem for us.

We would happily come back.

We’ve just returned from a wonderful one‑week stay at The Malthouse Barn in Walcott, booked through East Ruston Cottages, and it was everything we hoped for and more. Travelling with four dogs can sometimes be a challenge, but this cottage made it effortless. The space was spotless, beautifully presented, and genuinely dog‑friendly — not just “dogs allowed,” but thoughtfully equipped for people holidaying with pets.

Our hosts were absolutely fantastic — warm, welcoming, and clearly passionate about making guests (and their dogs) feel at home. The welcome pack was such a lovely touch, full of thoughtful goodies that made settling in easy after the journey.

The cottage is full of thoughtful touches for both humans and dogs, from cosy comforts inside to practical extras outside. There was even a dedicated dog shower set up in the garden, perfect for washing everyone down after sandy beach walks — a real bonus when travelling with multiple dogs.

The secure garden gave our dogs plenty of room to potter and play, and the peaceful location meant we could all properly unwind. We loved how close the cottage is to the beach and local walks, making it easy to get out each day without long drives.

We left feeling relaxed, recharged, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable, well‑kept cottage that truly embraces dog‑friendly holidays.
