We have just had an extremely relaxing week at The Crib in Happisburgh. It’s comfortable, cosy and has everything you need for an enjoyable holiday. It’s very dog friendly with beds, throws and bowl stands all provided. The owners are very responsive to messages and made the holiday more enjoyable as we knew we could contact them with any issues. We took our XL bully on holiday with us and the house and garden were very secure, allowing us to relax, knowing he was safe. We came back and have immediately booked for next year!
Christopher, March 2024
Discovered yet another amazing ERC property, this time at Winterton, Jack’s Shack. The owners have gone above and beyond in provision of both dog and human requirements in terms of practicality and comfort. Looking forward to our next two holidays that are already booked.
Nina, March 2024
Booked through east Ruston and have just returned from vineyard cottage. Had an absolutely wonderful time lovely cottage, perfectly located will definitely be back
Sarah, February 2024
A wonderful collection of properties with so many aimed at reactive dogs. We thought holidays were over until we found East Ruston Cottages. So very grateful for allowing our fear reactive GSP to have a beautiful place to chill, such a thoughtful company and I can't recommend highly enough.
Nadine, February 2024
We've spent a wonderful week away in Norfolk booked through Ruston Cottages and we will defintiely book with them again. It's so difficult to find 'true' dog friendly properties with 'Houdini' secure gardens, so many companies use the words 'friendly, enclosed, secure, only for us to arrive and find they're not which puts a downer on our special time away. We're so happy to have found Ruston knowing that on arrival everything for ours and our dogs needs have already been taken care of. Amazing thank you. :o)
Jeannette, January 2024
A great company with fantastic customer service and sooo dog friendly - dogs are welcomed not just tolerated. Have now stayed in Bristows Barn and Vineyard Cottage and both are lovely properties. Thoroughly recommended.
Shirley, November 2023
My best friend and I have just stayed at Ruby Gem cottage in Winterton. Its lovely and cosy and has lots of things for you and your dogs. We like this company because you can take more than 2 dogs. The owners leave homemade cakes and treats for the doggies. There's also blankets and toys for them too. It's very close to the beach and you can see the seals. There is a pretty cafe called Poppy's where we had a tasty breakfast, also a good chippy. We wouldn't hesitate to go again.
Julie Wallis, November 2023
A very helpful and friendly company to book with.
Timothy Thirst, November 2023
Attention to detail means 'dog friendly' is 'dog friendly'.
Daniel Simson, October 2023

Claire Morrison, October 2023
There is no other holiday company that is a dog friendly as east Ruston cottages. They go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and comfortable. The dogs comfort is just as important as the human's.
Tracey Stuart, October 2023
They are not just dog friendly they are actively aimed at people with dogs. They cater for reactive dogs as well as those that are in need of a high secure fence. The team are friendly & go the extra mile.
Daniel Webster, October 2023
Always amazing service!
Beverley Bratby, October 2023
Just the best for your fur babies
Carys Barnes, October 2023
East Ruston cottages go above and beyond to always make sure your stay is the best!
We had a puppy that had a broken leg, they made sure he had a dog pram so he could still go to the beach.
If you forget anything you know they will always have it.
I can’t recommend east Ruston anymore then I already do!
Karen Luton, October 2023

Amy Rowley, October 2023
We have stayed in an ERC property for 3 years running now and can honestly say they are truly dog friendly! We have a lovely Labrador who has enjoyed many beautiful walks on the Norfolk beaches, which have been within walking distance of the apartment. Everything is thought of by ERC, and they really can’t do enough for you. Hence why we keep returning and are already booked in for next year. Thank you ERC :)
Robin Gennings, October 2023
Have stayed at A number of cottages with ERC and they have all been outstanding. Not just “friendly” they are dog embracing.

Barbara Cheetham, October 2023
We have 5 dogs, previously 6, and ERC is the only company that we have found will accept this number of dogs. They really are dog friendly and go out of their way to make it a 'home from home'. We have been visiting Norfolk for many years now and wouldn't book with anyone else. Five ***** service, always :)
Roger De’ Ath, October 2023
I love em
Excellent properties
Excellent service
Excellent web site
Need I say more!
Mandy Crossley, October 2023
More than dog friendly everything is thought of to make staying with a dog just a fingers crossed situation
. IE garden = they tell you whether it is completely secure, height of fences etc.
numbers of dogs allowed is fabulously generous most cottages allow only 1 or possibly 2 they allow more!
House and furnishings- plenty of freedom to cover up sofas, dog crates, outside kennels and no rules about leaving the dog alone while you nip out or dogs not being allowed upstairs.
Lists of local walks, tea shops and pubs provided.
Everything is thought of well done to Sue and her team we wish we had more companies with lots of choices to rent accomodation from.
Corryn Nicholson, October 2023
Lots of places say they're dog friendly but it's just words, it just means that you can take your dog for an extra charge. ERC is the only company I have found who are truly dog welcoming and the cottages are very beautiful.
The company is also very helpful and totally efficient.
Susan Judge, October 2023
5 Star ! Everything you need is there.
Cathie Gibbens, October 2023
They put the dogs at the forefront of needs when booking a holiday, from secure gardens to great locations for walking. Dog treats are included, plus they cater for all potential needs, such as beds, crates, where to buy raw food etc
Each accommodation has floors that are easy to keep clean, places to dry the dogs down, comfort for the humans too. There isn't a single thing they don't think of!
Alison Kuipers, October 2023
East Ruston Cottages pride themselves on not only tolerating dogs but welcoming dogs wholeheartedly and this has certainly been our experience of holidaying with them in their cottages. From dog treats, toys, secure gardens and throws for the sofas, their attention to detail for their four legged furry visitors is amazing, making holidaying with them a real home from home for your dog!
Elizabeth Hedges, October 2023
Everything they do to provide really dog friendly accommodation.
Susan PRIOR, October 2023

Christina Biggs, October 2023
Fabulous holiday cottage close to the sea and dunes. Very dog friendly. Would definitely book again.
Michele Stanley, October 2023
Have just enjoyed a great week at Rose Cottage in Walcott. Well presented property with great supplies for the dogs - towels, throws, dishes, toys and beds. Super welcome pack both for us and the dogs, including a beautiful home made cake. As Anne and Gary knew we were celebrating our wedding anniversary during our stay there was also a lovely bottle of prosecco, flowers, chocolates and a card. Perfectly situated for the fabulous long beach (literally over the road), the Kingfisher Cafe & Fish and Chip shop and Walcott General Stores. Short drive to Bacton and the Cafe Carmel or to The Lighthouse Inn at Walcott, where we had two fabulous meals. Definitely recommend this lovely property.
Angela Wilkin, October 2023
Because their dog and owner friendliness is second to none !
Deborah Peacock, October 2023
Spent 2 weeks this summer at an East Ruston Cottage with a lively 15 month old lab and we had a very stress free holiday. Incredibly dog friendly - all equipment provided; beds, bowls, towels. There was even a hot/ cold tap in the garden to hose her down after a day on the beach. Will definitely be booking with them again.
Heidi Maahs, October 2023
There literally are no words for how superb this company is. The luxury accommodations to the 1st class service from the team. Every little thing has been lovingly thought out to perfection. They are just dog friendly, they're dog perfect. No silly rules, beautiful welcome hampers, immaculate cottages in perfect locations, I could go on. Would never book with anyone else. If Carlsberg did dog holidays.... .
Alan Sawkins, October 2023
All places visited have been so dog friendly
David Jinks, October 2023
On our holidays at various times we have always found East Ruston Cottages perfect for our needs, stayed in Hickling in Norfork in July this year, lovely big house with everything you would want, 6 adults and 7 dogs had a great time celebrating youngest daughters birthday, they even arranged birthday catering to be delivered on her birthday. Couldn't have been any better if we had done it ourselves, thank you ERC for your consideration.
Marina Kotz, October 2023

Since finding them this year, we've had three holidays in three different cottages and all are superbly dog friendly. We like them so much we're booked again next week to return to one of their cottages in Eccles Norfolk. So four holidays in one year! Absolutely the best for humans and their dogs. Highly recommended. Keep up the good work ERC!
Caroline Every, October 2023
The best and easiest dog holiday we have had. Beautifully maintained property with everything possible provided for humans and dogs.

Ros Poulson, October 2023
They are the most dog welcoming holiday cottages I've ever been to. They've thought of everything and dogs are truly welcomed not just tolerated.
Tracey Evans, October 2023
Sue's experience and knowledge of dogs. Holidays where dogs can be dogs and owners can relax guaranteed and if you run into trouble on holiday e.g., have a car accident or need a vet, Sue and her team are your friend. A holiday company where you have backing and security as a single traveller with your dogs too. Nothing is too much trouble and if it's dog related sue either has it covers already or will get it covered and ask.

Spotless houses and so dog friendly!

It was Roger's birthday while we were there and a cake was delivered which was a lovely surprise. Thank you all so much. We would love to revisit but unfortunately Roger has cancer now and at the moment is unable to travel. Keep up the brilliant work you do.
Dillian Maas, October 2023
Fabulous place we are staying at…first time in an East Ruston cottage!
Jane Williams, October 2023
East Ruston Cottages exceeded all our expectations of a truly doggy holiday. The cottage was perfect, exactly as the description on the user friendly website. We have 8 dogs and we had the most amazing holiday just meters from the gorgeous Norfolk coastline … Perfect
Chris Drake, October 2023
Because unlike most cottage rental companies in the UK which claim to be 'dog-friendly' but are most often no better than 'dog-tolerant', the properties available through East Ruston Cottages go way beyond 'dog-welcoming' and are invariably nothing less than 'dog-centric'. For us, this means that as humans, we can properly relax and enjoy the holiday. We love East Ruston Cottages!
Ann Cottam, October 2023
The most dog friendly, high quality accommodation catering for multiple dogs. It’s so hard to find a holiday cottage that is of good quality and allows more than two dogs. East Ruston offer fabulous cottages and are more than welcome to our pets - simply fantastic!

Truly dog friendly company. Not only dog friendly but reactive dog friendly too.
I have a really reactive dog and really have struggled in the past to find places appropriate. The cottages have outlined suitability on all properties for all types of dogs too.
No charge for dogs, really thinks about owners relationships with their dogs too!
Highly recommmend and will definitely use again
Rachael Wiseman, October 2023
Currently staying with ERC. All properties are 100% dog friendly, not dog tolerant 😊🐾

What a relief finding a place we could finally relax with our two rescue dogs. One is really reactive so finding a place where we weren't on edge the whole holiday has made this our best break ever. We have really found our happy place thanks to East Ruston Cottages. We have totally relaxed. The location is fantastic with the beach and country walks on our door step and a comfortable home where the dogs can snooze on the couches have made the holiday for us.
Daniel Hawksworth, September 2023
Every year I’ve stayed year, the accommodation just gets better and better and this year staying at Dormy was just amazing. Very modern, lovely and clean, but to top it off the communication and how it’s all tailored around the dogs is top notch!
Viictoria Bell, September 2023
Dog obssessed and people friendly!

Jules Drain, September 2023
I have stayed many times in an East Ruston Cottage. Having travelled fairly widely throughout the UK with my dogs, I can honestly say, ERC are the Gold Standard when it comes to dog friendly holidays. Sue and her team think of everything to make your holiday special, not only for the humans, but for the dogs as well.
Penny Harcourt, September 2023
Because they go the extra mile to make the properties truly dog welcoming.
Beverley Kincaid, September 2023
Truly dog friendly company that know the needs of the dogs and their owners.
Penny Bigwood, September 2023
I have found the majority of dog friendly places would be better described as “dog tolerant” - but East Ruston Cottages aren’t just dog friendly, they’re dog loving! You AND your dog/s feel properly welcome, and that’s before you even factor in the lovely extra touches like yummy cakes and dog treats.
Hall Lesley, September 2023
They really are the best. You never really appreciate what " Dog friendly" really means, until you have joined the East Ruston family.

Clive Evans, September 2023
Great company, genuinely dog friendly
Carl, September 2023
Another fantastic stay with ERC in the wonderful dog friendly county of Norfolk. Our cottage was a perfect base to see all that Norfolk has to offer. Deepdale is literally just 5 mins walk to the beach and all the amenities available and just a short drive to other local attractions. The cottage has a fantastic conservatory that we enjoyed relaxing in and the dog could wander off into the enclosed garden whenever he pleased- especially to see the chickens. Warning the Cockrel next door does like to tune up before his early morning call! There is a wealth of shops/pubs/cafes that are all dog friendly in this area and Sea Palling beach is fantastic for dogs. We have stayed with ERC a few times and it has never failed to disappoint, Sue and her team are always on hand to sort out any issues no matter how small. A truly wonderful stay and a fantastic relaxing holiday. We will be back.
Joanna Dodd, September 2023
Because they tick all the boxes for a enjoyable holiday
They are so thoughtful and accomadating.
Couldn't think of going anywhere else with the dogs and family.
Camilla Ingleheart, September 2023
They offer the most wonderful selection of super dog friendly cottages in Norfolk. Their cottages are carefully curated and it is so wonderful as a family who like to holiday with their furry friends, that we can stay in luxurious accommodation that is truly dog friendly. Their customer service was exceptional and it was great to know I could contact then at any time if necessary....I didn't because the holiday was so easy and accommodation sublime!

Debbie Malbon, September 2023
ERC was the most magical find we could have wished for. We have 5 dogs and there are not many places that you can take this amount of dogs. Not only did they except our dogs but when they say ` Dog Friendly ` that’s exactly what they mean! From back up leads, bowls, beds etc they even put dog blankets on the settee and chairs. Fantastic, second to none and we’re already booked for our 3rd year.

The properties are amazing in catering for dogs and humans so well and the locations are just stunning.
The team are so friendly and always so willing to help. They offer a great booking experience, look after you perfectly during the stay and check in with you afterward too.
I would definitely recommend anyone with dogs wanting a UK break to book with East Ruston.

Tanja Hobbs, September 2023
They aren't just dog friendly - they are absolutely dog welcoming and go over and above to make sure the dogs are truly catered for and part of the holiday.
The properties are all wonderful with all the little touches you need to make them a home from home.
We only ever use East Ruston Cottages for our holidays with the dogs and wouldn't use anyone else.
Lynette Wallace, September 2023
Had a fantastic time at Beachcomber with our 2 dogs. Cottage was spotlessly clean and beautifully presented. Everything had been thought of to accommodate our dogs (and us!). Would not hesitate to recommend and would love to visit again.

3 fab holidays so far. Amazing for doggos and humans alike.

In 11 years of booking dog friendly holidays we have never come across any other company that caters so well for the needs of both owners and dogs. Everything is thought of and the properties are top notch. The service provided by ERC is second to none and we have already re-booked for next year. If only we had found ERC sooner!
Carley Frain, August 2023
Extremely well organised. Fantastic for your dogs as well as for the family. Everything is thought through to the last detail. Would highly recommend to anyone with dogs!!
D Golding, August 2023
Absolutely wins in my eyes with all they have for the dogs and their owners, my dogs have always enjoyed their stay here with the easy access to the grass area off the patio and the dog field on site is always used daily before we set out exploring Norfolk.

We have been coming to east Ruston cottages twice a year for 5/6 years always excellent service and cottages.

Claire Roote, August 2023

Michele Nash, August 2023
You're the best....as simple as that.
Michele Sharpe, August 2023
ERC what an amazing dog friendly company. From booking, to arrival, to departure, they are dog this, dog that, dog dog dog. The amount of doggy stuff at each property is amazing, don't pack a crate, towels, throws, bowls, ramps or even doggy stairs, they have it all. Absolutely unbelievable customer service. If you could take the ERC model & spread it across the country, how fantastic would that be. E is for extra special, R is for Rover comes first, C is customer service all the way.
Stephanie Keeble, August 2023
Everything is thought of and the dogs are as important if not more so, than the people. Total relaxation and an extremely helpful and efficient organisation. We just keep on coming back.
Katie Allgood, August 2023
Not dog friendly, dog orientated!! Great locations, wealth of knowledge about the area - restaurants, beaches, activities, dog walks, anything and everything.

Carolyn O'Neill, August 2023
They are simply the best Dog Very Friendly holiday cottages in the Country. If it wasn't for the extremely welcoming ERC I don't think the Tenshilling Pointers (all 7 of them and Mabel the Dachshund would be able to have our annual jollibobs at the seaside 😊
Judith Honnor, August 2023
First time we have tried a dog friendly holiday. Dogs loved the treats that were left for them. Will definitely be booking with this company again in the very near future.
Stella Adkin, August 2023
Top quality cottages that welcome dogs and their humans with open arms.
Kate Sutton, August 2023
I’m a repeat customer and every East Ruston property I’ve stayed in is excellent. We have 3 large dogs and the fact that ERC are dog welcoming and not just “ dog friendly “ is 100% why we keep coming back,
Jean Taylor, August 2023
Best dog friendly holiday
Julie Sansom, August 2023
Their customer service is beyond what you would ever expect. It's like dealing with friends rather than an agency. I asked Sue if she knew of anywhere that hired out dog travel crates as our new rescue was awful in the car. We wanted to see if a crate would help before committing to buy one. Sue offered hers to us and even delivered it to our house. Just such thoughtfulness and it helped get us to one of the properties 18 minutes from our home! We all had a lovely break. All the properties we have stayed in have been clean and comfortable and humans and dogs have been able to feel relaxed without having to consider stupid dog rules.
Joanne Bellingham, August 2023
The most dog friendly company we have ever found. We would highly recommend to all dog lovers.
Hilary Johnson, August 2023
I have stayed in several ERC cottages and, when compared with OK experiences of other holidays in dog-friendly properties, the dog-friendliness is outstanding. (And they are pretty human friendly too!) As regards the dogs, the imagination and attention to the smallest detail to ensure their comfort, safety and happiness while away from home is superb.
Frances Starkey, August 2023
Because it's as much, if not more, about the dogs than it is about the people!
Amanda Thomlinson, August 2023
I voted as their cottages are over and above the most dog friendly accommodation to stay in. Also we keep coming back as they are always clean and tidy, you would never know there had been dogs staying previously. We travel with 8 dogs between my family and they are always welcome at East Ruston Cottages
Anne Haines, August 2023
Everything and more for dogs and humans. Wonderful places
Sandy Holland, August 2023
An example of a truly dog-friendly, home-from-home company.
Sarah Morgan, August 2023
Every holiday we’ve had with them has been perfect and truly dog friendly! We couldn’t ask for more they are the best!

Chris Bushell, August 2023
Couldn't fault the service or location.
Excellent
Sophie Capito, August 2023
A super dog friendly and people friendly company that provides the most amazing cottages. They cater for anxious, nervous dogs as well as those that can go anywhere. They will find you a doggy buggy if it’s needed, help if you need a dog sitter and generally do whatever they can to make you feel welcome and comfortable. The dogs are the priority, which is lovely.
Sharon Reeve, August 2023
Excellent dog friendly cottage and great communicators
Vicky Bell, August 2023
Dogs are welcome and catered for so much more than the normal 'dog friendly' cottages where they ate just tolerated
Christine Little, August 2023
Been in holiday with East Rushton Cottages before, they are the best company I know for catering for your dog or dogs. They are not just dog friendly, a statement made by many companies, dogs are treated as a family member like they would be at home.
Andrew Edwards, August 2023
Mainly stayed in Oak Tree but the area, the friendly hosts and all the facilities are amazing.

We and our 2 rescues really love and look forward to our ERC holidays so much.
Jenny Oliver, August 2023
Having visited a number of East Ruston Properties over the last 10 years, I know I can guarantee that the house will not only be a great place for the human family, the all important requirements for our dogs will be met 10 fold. Other places might accept dogs, East Ruston embrace dogs

Averil Claridge, August 2023
Brian’s cottage is just the best. Everyone involved is so friendly from the moment you book a East Ruston cottage holiday and long after you return home.
Jackie Rowley, August 2023
Always willing to help. VERY dog friendly.
Sharon Higgs, August 2023
Great accommodation for us and our dogs, a large number of wonderful properties to choose from. Excellent help when booking, lots of recommendations of local places, welcome goodies (such as lovely cakes) - all these little touches (and there are many more) make the holiday special. We have booked our third stay because taking the dogs becomes a pleasure. This is because east rushton cottages go the extra mile to ensure all the dogs are welcome.
Denise Armstrong, August 2023
Truly the only company worthy of the title 'dog friendly'. Created by dog owners who get that dogs are family too - even when on holiday. Full freedom on holidays, everything thought through from spare dog bowls to warm doggie showers. I'd never recommend anybody else but these guys and gals.
Jill Bingham, August 2023
Fantastic holiday with you, the cottage was lovely and the local facilities were great

Great company to deal with & great properties that are genuinely dog friendly

We've been bringing our dogs to Norfolk for many years, and East Ruston Cottages are BY FAR the most dog friendly we've stayed at! Simply pawsome! Everything we could have wanted was there - even a stroller for our oldie Cassie :)
Brenda Vazquez-Heredia, August 2023
Great personalised service from the team. Amazing properties in great locations. Well equipped for humans and dogs. By far the best :)
Anna Salt, August 2023
We have always been very lucky in choosing fantastic dog friendly accommodation, Seaview was in a different league. There are an increasing amount of properties that say they are dog friendly but as a responsible dog family we can rarely settle completely, there is always are always the odd thing that aren’t ideal for dog families, the steps that East Ruston have taken to ensure they are dog friendly are fantastic. It’s the little things really, dog beds and blankets, spare bowls, dog treats, poo bags, placement of furniture i.e. nothing breakable at pooch level. We normally have to do a little sweep around, moving the vase from the floor in the old fireplace etc but at Seaview all of this had been taken into consideration. It didn’t just feel like a place for the humans but for the dogs. The great little touches like the cake on arrival, ensuring the garden is completely secure. The property itself is stunningly decorated, in a modern, clean, cottage style. The location is fantastic, hidden away down a quiet lane only a minutes walk to the beach. The amenities of the property were fantastic, even down to wet suites and bodyboards available to be used. The views from the rear and side of the property over the sea were lovely. The whole experience of staying in an East Ruston cottage was exceptional. As I said earlier you will see an ever increasing list of accommodation that will accept your dog, East Ruston is different they don’t accept your dog, they welcome them. My first visit to Norfolk certainly exceeded expectations, I only wish our stay hadn’t been shorter than expected due to my dads health. In the words of a certain 80s film character I’ll be back.
Aaron Mccarthy, August 2023
They are a fantastic company all things considered
Kirsty Gardner, August 2023
Amazing customer service and fantastic properties that love dogs and humans alike!
Jenny Dawton, August 2023
Been to a few of their properties and had short and long holidays with them. They are a great company nice and clean and love how they cater for all.
Melanie Young, August 2023
Wonderful cottages, very clean and spacious.
Ciara Arundel, August 2023
Most "dog friendly" accommodation is very restrictive on numbers and some even dictate the size of dog you are permitted to take. East Ruston Cottages provides wonderful houses with truly dog proof gardens, and allows me to take my three "large" hounds on holiday with me. The hounds also appreciate the welcome treats!
Patrcia Barclay, August 2023
Though about 7 years since my last visit I loved coming while I could afford it - you undoubtedly have the best properties, the most helpful householders and the best countryside & walking paths for dog and owner alike. Good luck
Jeannette Bradbury, August 2023
So welcoming for dogs - just great.
Mary Clements, August 2023
All their accomodations are very dog welcoming, not just dog friendly. Dogs as well as people are very well catered for in the accomodation and areas eg garden. Good information of places to visit is provided. Extras are often provided which are very welcome. Good spread of s.c.accomodation around the area.
Ginny Lewis, August 2023
East Ruston Cottages are the most dog friendly that I have ever stayed in. I've travelled to quite a few with my spaniel and a lot of other 'dog friendly' cottages are merely dog tolerant with rules about no dogs upstairs etc. I always make sure I leave a place as I find it so don't know why they are so fussy.
sharon barrow, August 2023
exceptional choice of properties for people who take their dogs on holiday
very few companies cater for this, wish it was the whole of the UK
excellent customer service
Gregory Deacon, August 2023
Great dog friendly cottage rental. Sue and the cottage owners have been nothing but delightful. If we are going to Norfolk we won't book with anyone else.
Linda Baker, August 2023
We have stayed in various properties and every one was truly dog friendly , immaculately clean and well equipped making for relaxing holidays for us and our dogs .
Mark Dawson, August 2023
Always loverly, a home away from home and so dog friendly
Helen Hollis, August 2023
We are repeat customers. This company and their cottage owners go above and beyond to genuinely make dogs (and their owners) welcome, not just tolerated as we have found with other holidays. Nothing is too much trouble, great offers, fabulous group chat exchanging all sorts or ideas and tips to enhance your visit to the area. We are back there for Christmas and would highly recommend.
Liz Allum, August 2023
The best dog friendly cottage company
Christina Biggs, August 2023
The best cottage holiday we have ever had. Completely dog friendly which made us feel comfortable taking our much loved dog with us this year. So much so we snuck in a second week this year.
Steph Sharman, August 2023
It’s a home from home experience. Clean & tidy accommodation that allows my dog to enjoy their time away too.
Victor Rybacki, August 2023
We have stayed many times in a property from East Ruston Cottages and have never stayed in any other cottage elsewhere that meets the standards set by East Ruston Cottages in terms of the cottage, what is provided for our use and quality.
Sandra Langley, August 2023
We’ve stayed in a few of their cottages and all have been excellent, everything catered for, would recommend them to anyone.
Stella Wilkinson, August 2023

‘Simply the best’ dog friendly accommodation!
Sue Goad, August 2023
Best dog friendly accommodation I have ever used
Emma Watts, August 2023
I have a reactive dog and holidays in the past have been very stressful but at East Ruston we feel welcomed. I know 100 percent that my dog will be safe and secure and that we can all relax. Sue and the owners understand the needs of reactive / sensitive dogs and that is very rare to find.
Kim Hewlett, August 2023
I have stayed in many places with our dog but this company goes way above and beyond to make sure that everything we might need for our furry family member is provided.
Jackie Porter, August 2023
Beautiful house on a beautiful setting presented with cleanliness, homeliness but most importantly dog friendlyness!!
Vicky Harris, August 2023
Nothing was too much trouble and the cottage was amazing. I loved being able to request free hire of dog crates as they are so bulky to pack. It was the easiest and nicest dog friendly holiday us and our 3 dogs have ever taken.
Georgina Davis, August 2023
Beautiful lovely dog friendly cottages
Karen Lovatt, August 2023

Kay Johnstone, August 2023
It has taken us 20 years to find a truly dog friendly holiday company. ERC really do tick all the boxes and we still pinch ourselves when we walk into their properties and they are dog friendly not just dog tolerant!
Linda Wood, August 2023
Frankly they offer the very best pet friendly accommodation, with a huge range of properties large or small, to choose from. Every property is safe and their descriptions are always with your dog in mind, so allow you to choose from stairs, slip-free floors, higher fences. everything a dog owner will need is catered for. The standard of each property is exemplary, with a dog's - or many dogs' needs always foremost. The personal and kind service received from East Ruston Cottages - Sue - is readily available and always with a smile attached. As an example, she kindly took in & then delivered my order of raw dog food once so it was ready for when we started our holiday. There are a lot of good pet friendly places around the country, and my 2 German Shepherds have used a few but we have never come across with anything that can offer the genuinely dog loving, excellent all round services that East Rushton Cottages does.
Sam Gravestock, August 2023
The houses are well equipped for both four and two legged guests! Great customer service from ERC on the occasions I have used them.
Sophie Anderson, August 2023
The only place we could find that would suit our family's needs with the amount of dogs we share between us. They're super dog friendly, and our dogs are family who we want to enjoy holidays with.
Frances GIBBS, August 2023
Very helpful and friendly company who only list cottages that are genuinely dog friendly. Many will accept multiple dogs. They also go the extra mile by supplying crates and dog buggies if requested. The company also has local knowledge of the area they cover and will advise on pubs, cafes and other places that are dog friendly too. Their fb page is full of local info which really helps to make the holiday relaxing.
Anne Bufton-McCoy, August 2023
Great service. Always keep you informed and are always happy to help.
Sue Chandler, August 2023

We had the most amazing holiday with East Ruston Cottages and cannot emphasize enough how “dog Friendly” they truly are.

Me and my wife have stayed in east Ruston cottages for a number of years. Absolutely wonderful and the most dog friendly I have come across.

The cottages are the most dog friendly I have visited with my dog. Many places call themselves dog friendly but have so many rules when you arrive, you may as well just tie your poor hound up for the visit. Not the case at Easton Ruston.
Julie Gill, August 2023
They are truly dog welcoming properties and the business is very efficiently run by Sue.
Dawn Wigmore, August 2023
Have booked through them many times. They always go above and beyond. Have had to cancel this year's holiday due to husband having cancer treatment. I have incurred no fees. Sue was very kind and understanding and hoping my husband will be well enough to go next year.

Sally Parsons, August 2023
They truly are dog friendly! No silly rules, it's the dogs' holiday just as much as the humans meaning you can relax ☺
Jane Russell, August 2023
An absolutely amazing company in every respect that caters for multiple dogs. The only problem with this company is that you don’t want to come home!

Vee, July 2023
We stayed at The Lodge with our 4 dogs and had a great time , could not of asked for more. Everything you could possibly need .This accommodation is extremely welcoming for dogs and well catered for with dog towels ,beds and crates if needed. The very secure garden was perfect and the Lodge is well away from the road and passing people / traffic especially as one of my dogs is reactive so this was perfect.
They loved going to the beach every morning ( short drive ) the beaches are really lovely and all within just a short drive .
Never have we had such a relaxing holiday , the Lodge was just fantastic and so was the amazing welcome pack I will definitely be going back .
Christine, June 2023
We've just returned from a great week away booked via East Ruston Cottages. Ollands farm barn in Happisburgh is clean, cosy & comfortable & had everything we needed (even providing an XL crate for doggie) & is in the most peaceful location. The garden & courtyard are completely enclosed & secure. The owners were friendly but discrete & left a welcome basket full of local goodies. The dog biscuits were a huge hit. An easy drive to dog friendly beaches at Cart Gap, Eccles, Sea Palling & more. Loads of great walks for us & the dog.
Would definitely recommend Easy Ruston cottages for real dog friendliness & Will definitely be booking again.
Anne, May 2023
Stayed at Wagtail cottage in May 2023. A quaint and thoughtfully renovated home. Great set up for our dogs, we had 3 large dogs and 4 adults. Enclosed sunny garden. Cosy lounge and wood burner. Kitchen well equipped and nice welcome hamper. Communication with the owner and ERC is spot on. We have used ERC before and would highly recommend if you are a dog owner and want to put their needs first along with quality accommodation for the humans.
Carina, April 2023
Our 2nd visit to The Lodge & our 10th year staying with East Ruston Cottages. I won't go into detail about the places we've visited because there are too many & we've visited them several times over the years but, if you want a TRULY dog friendly holiday with no restrictions on breed, size or numbers & vast, glorious beaches then ERC is the place to book.
Stephanie, April 2023
Just come back from staying at Rose Cottage at Bacton/Walcott
Lovely little cottage short stroll to beach. Lots of goodies left for humans and dogs. Anne, the owner was a lovely lady who left a card and gift for hubbies birthday . The property is clean and well equipped. Dog toys.beds. Sofas towels and throws. So nice to find somewhere that dogs are allowed everywhere. Plenty of cafes and pubs within walking distance that were truly dog friendly. Would recommend
Amanda, March 2023
This is our first holiday with our dog. We stayed at Victoria Cottage. Booking through East Ruston Cottages has been excellent. Great website. Lots of information and wonderful range of properties. Victoria cottage was lovely. Wonderful extra touches and many dog friendly elements which made our stay easy and relaxing. We really loved our stay and highly recommend booking through East Ruston Cottages. Sue is great!

Just spent a wonderful week at Seaview Cottage, near Bacton. Super comfortable house and right by the beautiful, sandy beach which stretches for miles. The enclosed garden was a bonus - a truly enclosed garden as well, with no escape routes or views out, which was perfect for our reactive dogs. The house is in a very quiet area, minimum traffic / footfall outside the house, but lots of amenities close by too. Really peaceful staying there. Our 2 dogs loved every minute as did we. It was our first time staying at an East Ruston Cottage and we will definitely book again. Just brilliant - thank you!
Camilla, February 2023
Another fantastic stay with ERC, this time at Rooster Barn with our 7 dogs. They loved the fully enclosed garden, we loved the log burner, perfect after a bracing beach walk. Best beach for us was Brancaster, a bit of a drive but well worth it. Already planning our next visit.
Sally, February 2023
Our seventh East Ruston Cottages holiday, and third at Seaview. Probably says it all
Perfect cottage, dreamy location, the views can’t be improved, and you go to sleep hearing the sea
We’ve been Leonie’s guests May, Oct, and now Jan - so great any time of year.
Fab-u-lous
Gareth, January 2023
Had THE most amazing week in Wag-tail Cottage for Christmas. Weather was really kind, my 3 boys ( 2 x labs and a Newfy) absolutely loved all the walks on the beach and in the dunes and then loved just collapsing into a deep sleep and doggy snores.
The cottage was just perfect for us, 3 bedrooms, nice sized garden, great sized kitchen for cooking, lovely cozy lounge area to sit and chill and chat in.
This is the most perfect cottage for anyone looking for a Norfolk break.
Kirsty Gardner, November 2022
Amazing customer service and great properties that cater for humans and dogs equally.
Lynn Vallance, November 2022
We were thrilled to find this company specialising in Dog Friendly Cottages. The Rooster Barn in Trunch was perfect for our family and our dog Louis - large enclosed garden perfect for our dog Louis and beautifully appointed barn for our family of four.

The holiday is all about the dogs, nothing is too much , they go above beyond nothing is too much . We have booked again next year x
Sarah, October 2022
Just returned from a week at the delightful Farthing Cottage in Trunch with my three dogs. Small but perfectly formed. Exceptionally well equipped cottage, in a great location for accessing both the coast and the Broads. Very clean property. Small but secure garden. Exceptionally generous welcome pack from the owner. What is not to like?
Daniel Richards, October 2022
Totally dog friendly business ethos. Nothing too much trouble if it means a better holiday for humans and their dogs.
Ms Sharon Simmons, October 2022

Amazing service from the moment we book to the final email when we return home.

Sue Smith, October 2022

Truly dog welcoming. Dogs are treated as part of the family and nothing is too much trouble. No silly rules - dogs come first. Wouldn't book with anyone else.
Suzanne, October 2022
We have just stayed at Rooster Barn in Norfolk and had a fantastic week. East Ruston Cottages do such a good job in making sure accommodation is dog friendly. Everything was provided for from dog bowls, throws and of course dog treats plus human treats were there too! The place was set in lovely village with a lovely walks from the door. There was a folder with dog walks either going from the door or around the local area. I will definitely be booking up again as it has been so relaxing and it’s like a home from home. Dogs have loved being here and settled in really quickly. Loved the recommendations for things to do as well as we went on a boat along Norfolk Broads which we would of never considered doing. Keep up the good work ERC!
Jane, October 2022
We have stayed at three Cottages and all have been fabulous. The latest is White Cottage at Happisburgh which is homely and very comfortable. Five minutes to walk to the beach or pub and surrounded by beautiful countryside. The garden is fully enclosed and the cottage is set up perfectly for dogs to stay. We have loved it!
Helen Love, October 2022
Very friendly business

Heidi Maahs, October 2022
Hands down the dog friendliest cottages ever, no hidden rules, no charges for dogs, beautiful high quality cottages fully and perfectly equipped. What makes them extra special is Sue and the team, honest, decent amazingly helpful and friendly people who go the extra mile to make your stay perfect. From videoing the cottages so you can see what they're really like, to extensive information on everything from eating out to walks and trips out there is absolutely no competition that even comes close to how brilliant they are. Can not recommend highly enough, our dogs are treated as good as, if not better, than us.
Diana Prudhoe, October 2022
Wonderful warm welcome. Stunning cottage and everything was A+++ We will definitely book with East Ruston again, a truly dog friendly company

For our family they really stand out as the most dog friendly
Helen Rollins, September 2022
ERC are so incredibly dog friendly. Many other holiday lets claim to be, but ERC truly are. What you see is what you get and more.

Anthony Gillings, September 2022
Excellent accommodation.
Mr D Pauley, September 2022
They are so dog friendly. They leave dog treats in the welcome packs and allow so many dogs. Some cottages say they are dog friendly and aren’t really. East Ruston are. They provide dog beds, crates and offer services through others like dog sitting etc… they go the extra mile and it really is a appreciated.?
Karen Lovatt, September 2022
We are going back for our fifth stay later this year. At East Ruston Cottages, you know you can fully relax with your dogs.

Simply because our dogs were considered as family.

Brilliant website - fantastic selection of Dog Friendly cottages/. Communication from Sue Allen and her team is perfect. Everything has been considered for you! For a new and first time dog parent, ERC have made our staycations stress free!
Bev Scillitoe, August 2022
ERC are ideal for those of us who want to holiday with their pets there are so many cottages to choose from from cosy ones ideal for a couple to large ones for families everyone caters for our dogs in every way I’ve told so many of my friends this is the way forward
Helen Rippey, August 2022
I know when we are coming to an ERC property there is no anxiety about dog rules & regulations, no signs saying do not allow your dogs on the furniture or upstairs. Dog friendly means 💯% dog friendly. The only rule is enjoy yourselves 🐾
Chris Barnes, August 2022
The most dog loving cottages in the country! Totally geared up to not only accepting dogs but welcoming them with open arms. They think of everything to make your holiday the best holiday.
Christine Cook, August 2022
The owners of the cottages are beyond dog friendly - simple as that. Sue & her team work so hard to keep East Ruston Cottages outstandingly perfect
Kate Lawrance, August 2022
Sue and the team go out of their way to find and test out all the best dog friendly places, so it’s easy to plan your holiday/days out if you want to. We stayed at the Grove back in April and it was just perfect. Totally dog friendly but also clean, comfortable and modern with a fabulous garden. We didn’t have any problems or issues at all but I’m sure if we did, it would all be sorted quickly and efficiently. We’ll be back for a visit again soon 😊
Melanie Thornley, August 2022
I have never known a company that when they say dog friendly, they mean it, no but can’t do this, can’t do that, East Ruston goes that extra mile every time
Sue Sewell, August 2022
I couldn't have asked for anything more for my dogs. The area was perfect, lots of quiet places to walk and variety to suit all weathers. The company provided excellent advice on choosing the correct cottage for out needs. The biggest bonus was that everything was provided for the dogs ( throws, bowls, beds and all the floors were covered in non slip matting). The garden was ultra secure, leaving them with the freedom to come and go as they pleased.
The cottage in general was maintained to a very high spec, something not always found on dig friendly accommodation..
We will certainly be using East Rushton Cottages again.
Tina Welsh, August 2022
Best customer service, supberb rental properties and unwavering attention to detail.
Carys Barnes, August 2022

Adrian, August 2022
We have been using Sue since she first started a quite a few years back now when our girls were little, the eldest has now left school and we still only use Sue. Her selection of properties are great and suit all budgets and requirements, the welcome packs, the cleanliness, presentation and help she provides is personable and second to none.
Thoroughly recommend Sue and East Ruston Cottages 100%
Thanks
Adrian and Family
Christine Longmire, August 2022
We have stayed at a number of East Rustin cottages over the last few years. They are all well equipped comfortable and very dog friendly. Welcome packs are excellent
Tracey Body, August 2022
They are super dog friendly, everything is thought of to make it a home from home for both humans and pooches, they make others seem more dog tolerant than dog friendly 😊
Allyson Jordan, August 2022
Exceptional cottages, fantastically dog friendly and Sue great at recommending the perfect place for you and your dogs

Gillian Cooper, August 2022
Because when they say 'dog friendly' - they really are. No cream carpets or sofas, no signs saying your dog can't ...... , gardens dog friendly and fenced, local information and recommendations for dog friendly local everything. Have not found another cottage company as good...
Joanna Harris, August 2022
Excellent cottages which are truly dog friendly with no petty rules.
Camilla Westmacott, August 2022
Proper dog friendly accommodation - we love staying within walking distance of some fabulous beaches.
Hazel, August 2022
Sue and the team are super friendly and professional. They keep customers informed with useful information at every step from searching for a holiday right through until coming home.
Nothing is too much trouble and all questions are dealt with well. The booking system is efficient too.
Just back from my third trip with ERC and I will be going again, despite the 7 to 8 hour drive each way. That says a lot. Nowhere have I found accommodation and surrounding areas, beaches, eating places etc that are so dog welcoming etc. When it is perfect for dogs the owners can relax and enjoy, in particular when you have multiple dogs like me. It is good to know they are safe and lots of equipment and supplies are in situ so less packing. This so helps 🙂
All three properties I have stayed in were truly wonderful with super helpful owners too.

Hazel, August 2022
Manor Barn. Fabulous barn conversion! Loved the stone floors, thick walks, farmhouse kitchen, in fact we loved it all. 5 adults with mulitple dogs stayed. Very spacious and comfortable. Everything you could possibly need for humans and doggies. Helpful owners next door too.
Outside has 3 seating areas and having a choice was lovely. The orchard is just gorgeous to chillax in.
Relaxing and peaceful surroundings yet near to beaches and local villages.
Loved it 💞 as did the dogs 🐕, all 7 of them
Anne Bodfish, August 2022
They really have everything you need and want for you and your dogs !

Diane Barry, August 2022
The team at ERC are passionate about their company and work hard to ensure all the properties they use are totally dog friendly. They personally vet all properties before including them.
Sue the owner of the company is always available in a crisis and will go the extra mile to help clients who need her
Rebecca Brooker, August 2022
They are truly dog friendly and have a fabulous selection of properties - such a difference from other holiday places we have been to that turned out to be "dog tolerant" on a good day!. I never have to worry about doggy restrictions when booking with ERC.
Stephanie MARSHALL, August 2022
We’ve just had a great week in one of the ERC houses. We took 3 dogs, 2 kids and 5 adults. Plenty of enclosed and safe garden space for our energetic dogs plus cages, towels, stairgates and doggy goodies available. Would highly recommend them to other dog owners.
Jayne Wintle, August 2022
Perfect holiday for dogs and humans with every detail thought of. 🐾❤️
Marina Kotz, August 2022
THE most dog welcoming holiday lets ever! Perfect for pooches and people. Cannot fault them X
Lisa Southall, August 2022
Finding suitable accommodation for our 3 greyhounds can be difficult, East Ruston Cottages have nailed it! Beyond dog friendly - Dog perfect!
Next year (2023) will be our 4th Holiday with them.
christine wingrove, August 2022
they cater for the reactive dog as well as having dog friendly accomodation in an area I like
Lesley Walker, August 2022
The most dog-friendly accommodation we have ever stayed in. They literally think of everything and go above and beyond for their guests.
Paula Bushnell, August 2022
East Ruston Cottages are the ultimate in dog welcoming holiday providers. We love staying at their cottages, so far we have stayed at three different cottages and cant wait for our next holiday. All cottages are spotlessly clean, beautifully cosy and have gorgeous welcome packs for dogs and humans.
Helen Hollis, August 2022
Have had five holidays with this company. Really understand “dogs welcome” and go the extra mile to make sure humans and the four paws all have a fabulousl holiday. Sue and her team think of everything.
Sally Parsons, August 2022
We are regulars, trying lots of different cottages as well as returning to some, because ERC quite simply have ‘got it right’. The cottages are clean, well-equipped, and truly dog-friendly! None of this pretending to be then you arrive and find dogs can’t go upstairs/in the lounge etc. I have four (two labs, two daxies) that are members of our family and therefore live in our house - more housetrained than some peoples kids - yet too many holiday homes ‘welcome’ just one or two. Their prerogative, but that’s not truly dog-friendly, especially when rules apply in addition. When ERC say dog friendly, that’s what they mean! Beautiful cottages where ALL the family are welcome 🐾
Pat Bell, August 2022
Makes such a lovely change to be able to go away with family and all our dogs
Susan Wright, August 2022
We have visited their cottages over a number of years and have always been impressed with the high standards offered. They are very well equipped both for humans and dogs and always spotless.
Jennie Mercer, August 2022
Because they truly are dog friendly and not just dog tolerant
Carolyn Mancini, August 2022
Excellent service all round
Elvira Kloek, August 2022
I have stayed there last month. Big secure garden, with alway shade (my dogs don't like warm weather). Towels, beds and bowls for the dogs, no charge for the dogs and a lot of information about beaches, walks, pubs where you can take your dogs. Never received so much information in advance
Diane Lane, August 2022
The very best dog friendly holiday accommodation. Nothing is too much trouble and they really care that you and your dogs have a great time
Jane Rivers, August 2022
From my initial contact booking enquiry to having my left personal belongings (my error) swiftly returned after an amazing stay at Bristows Barn the accommodation, property owner, and the whole East Rushton team everything was 100% in every way.
Probably one of the best holiday experiences ever, for humans and 4 legged family.
Joy Starkey, August 2022
The dogs are more important than the people...
Sue Allen, August 2022
Because I would LOVE us to win for the 4th year in a row!!!
Carolyn, July 2022
We have just returned from Rose Cottage at Bacton. Fantastic cottage. One of our dogs is a runner and we were perfectly happy that the outside area was completely secure. The welcome basket was lovely, especially the cake! Had everything you could need for a perfect doggy holiday, including baskets, toys, towels, throws etc. Everything we humans could need as well! Lovely area. Will definitely use (and recommend) ERC again. Thanks for a lovely break.
Audrey, July 2022
My daughter and I, with our lively one-year-old maltipoo, Buddy, were the very first visitors to stay in the newly-refurbished Rose Cottage in June, and we had a thoroughly enjoyable week. Anne snd Gary were the perfect hosts - friendly, helpful, doing everything possible to make us welcome and to ensure our comfort. There is a lovely feeling of 'home from home', with many thoughtful extras, an extremely well-equipped kitchen, and everything a dog could possibly need! Buddy loved the freedom to run around, inside and out, and we could relax, knowing he was completely safe. He loved playing on the nearby beach, as well as walks in other beautiful places only short drives away - woods, gardens, Broads. We were sorry to leave and look forward to returning.
Jayne, July 2022
Fab week spent at Vineyard Cottage. Lovely cottage with really comfortable beds & in the perfect location for visiting all the places we’ve come to love in Norfolk.
Helen, June 2022
We had a wonderful week at Victoria Court (flat3) Sherringham, it’s a great location & only a very short walk into the village. The flat itself is very well equipped with all the mod cons, my 87 yr old dads mind was blown away with Alexa 😆. Just outside the flat there are some great walks up the bump & at the bottom of the ramp when the tide is out a lovely dog friendly beach. I am sad that this flat is no longer listed by East Ruston Cottages, I only hope that with the new agent that dog friendly means dog friendly & not dog tolerated
Sarah, June 2022
Victoria Cottage: Happisburgh Common
Our first ever self catering holiday and it certainly won't be our last. Victoria Cottage, the owners and ERC provided everything we needed to ensure our 4 night break was stress free and super comfortable. We took two dogs along, one who is super reactive and the other recovering from being quite ill. Ideally situated in a quiet location but also close to many local amenities, country walks, beach walks, pubs and cafes. The cottage owners were so very welcoming, little gifts of homemade dog treats, fresh eggs and a super tasty Victoria Sponge were a nice touch. On hand to provide advice on dog friendly locations to visit but never intrusive.
The cottage was very well equipped, super comfy beds and sofas, a lovely sunny and contained courtyard. We will certainly be returning. Thank you to Lucy and Sue!
Michelle, June 2022
Had an amazing break with my dogs at Misty Meadows. Couldn’t recommend enough as this place was perfect. Huge enclosed garden and the dogs had the time of their life. Lovely welcome pack for humans and dogs! We were thrilled and loved everything about our break. Can’t wait to get back there!
Alison, June 2022
Another wonderful holiday at the Lodge. Never want to go home. We had a wonderful time on the beach , all the cafes are dog friendly, we have already booked another holiday and are counting the days until we’re back again. Thank you so much East Ruston Cottages for another wonderful holiday.
Charlene, June 2022
The Walnut... Absolute Bliss!!!
We had an amazing stay at The Walnut.
I had high expectations for The Walnut and I can honestly say, it didn’t disappoint.
The barn is stunning, inside and out and very well looked after.
Stella & Paul met us on arrival so we knew where they were if we needed them. They are a lovely couple, and we enjoyed meeting Mister and Biff too. We had a long journey and asked if we could use the paddock when we arrived as we have a young lab, and this definitely helped burn of some energy- the earlier arrival helped us and our dog settle - so thank you very much for allowing us.
The front porch is brilliant for bags and storing shoes, beach bags etc, there is plenty room. The outside area is great, enclosed the courtyard with the hot tub and seating area and all fully secure, so you can totally relax knowing your dog is safe. Open the gate and you have access to the paddock outside. The paddock is brilliant, so much space for zoomies and great after a long drive. Our lab loved it, it was definitely a bonus for us to use.
Our stay was totally private and so peaceful, the only thing you will hear are the birds.
Beautiful views outside each window to be enjoyed and you are not overlooked whatsoever. Outside is so pretty at night too, the lights in the paddock on the tree and outside are lovely and makes it feel so homely.
The hot tub was a real bonus too, we enjoyed relaxing with the beautiful views across the fields. The robes for the tubs were great, nice to have these provided for the stay.
The Walnut is beautiful, its absolutely immaculate inside and so much care has gone into everything inside to make the stay comfortable. There were four of us and our dog and it wasn't cramped at all, it really makes for a comfortable stay.
Plenty of room in the bedrooms and hanging space, drawers etc, and both bathrooms have good showers too.
Stella & Paul & ERC really do get dog holidays, just because you have a dog and want dog friendly accommodation, it doesn't mean you should have to compromise on where you stay or the type of accommodation offered, The Walnut is dog friendly without doubt, but it is beautiful and such care has gone into the detail in the barn and its very clean throughout.
The welcome hamper was fab, plenty of treats for the humans & dog! The flowers, such a lovely and personal touch and nice to sample some local goodies - thank you, they were very much appreciated.
Holiday tags for collars were also provided. Also a dog first aid kit in the property too. Plenty of dog towels, toys, bowls and throws .
Plenty of games and puzzles, cards etc, to work your way through, when the weather isn't great. Tesco is a short drive too, which is good. The location is great.
We mostly ate out but had a takeaway from Oriental Garden in Bacton, it was really nice.
We also ate at The Star in Lessingham (very dog friendly) and the food was lovely, would definitely recommend, Its a twenty minute walk from The Walnut too!
We also ate in The Swan Inn, in Stalham, nice food and dog friendly.
The beaches are great, so many to choose from and all lovely sandy beaches, plenty of space and dogs! You can get to the beach in the car under ten minutes or walk, it took us an hour but was a nice walk.
We had such a lovely time, and it was so relaxing. The Walnut is a great base, close to the beaches and pubs and great for our lab who can be a bit reactive to noise, you literally cannot hear a thing outside whatsoever.
We have loved every bit of our stay, if it was available this summer we would have booked to stay again! We didn't want to leave and neither did the dog.
We have booked for next year and so glad we have that to look forward too.
We would highly recommend The Walnut, you will not be disappointed.
Thank you Stella & Paul, for sharing your beautiful barn and being so accommodating during our stay. We cannot wait to come back next year.
Love Loki & Family.

We have stayed in Skylark Chalet for a week, very impressed lovely & clean everything you may need for your dog.
Shower works well & kitchen is well equipped.
Our 3 dogs Faye 14 years 6 months, Lucus nearly 5 years & puppy Libby only 14 weeks old all of them have been well behaved! Especially Libby.
The dogs have loved the beach only 10 minutes walk from the Chalet.
Plenty of dog friendly places to visit in Norfolk.
We would definitely recommend this place & hopefully we will visit again sometime.
As very relaxing, local Pubs & Shops in the village.
Wendy, May 2022
Another brilliant week with ERC.
The Crib this holiday - it’s so hard to choose between these fabulous cottages. The Crib is such a beautiful, friendly cottage, everything you could ever need is provided.
Dog friendly is an understatement, my girls just love it here, they smile, beach five mins away, pub too.
The cottage is clean and bright. Beds comfy, kitchen amazing. I could go on and now I’ll never get a week having told you all just how wonderful it is 😂
Ps SueAllen manages and can’t do enough for us.
Joy, May 2022
RedRoofs
I recently saw a FB post describing Redroofs as “wrinkly cleavage and wonky incisors. :-) Grey roots and comfy slippers! ”. Well, that’s fine because it describes me too, so we were obviously made for each other.
Neither of us is flashy or ostentatious; in some parts we’re quite plain and basic but overall we’re full of comfort, homeliness and kwytch. Oh, and don’t forget the peace and quiet...
Have seen lots of improvements over the years and it continues to be our holiday home of choice – the location is simply perfect (private road, view of broad); gardens are wonderful - both the secure back paddock (for the dog) and the pretty front for the early evening sunsets; beds are REALLY comfortable and the power shower is awesome; can’t beat a log fire when an evening turns chilly; whatever you want, it will probably be there somewhere (Redroofs is pretty well kitted out, especially the kitchen); everywhere is clean and fresh. Jane provided fresh flowers and a particularly interesting welcome pack this visit and also met our special requests.
Missing Redroofs already ...
Melanie, May 2022
Stayed at White Cottage for a week in May, the owners Penel and Leith were so lovely and the cottage was just perfect with the most amazing fully enclosed garden, so when the pups didn’t want a long walk they could play around the garden. Warm outside showed was def welcome with dogs that love water and mucky puddles! Felt totally relaxed from the minute we walked through the door and so did our dogs, which is most important, never felt we had to say ‘don’t go there’, ‘get off the sofa’ etc, it was a home from home. Would highly recommend both White Cottage and East Ruston Cottages, Sue and George couldn’t be more helpful.
Rita, April 2022
The beautiful Milestone Barn in Gimingham ... get in whilst you can!
Our second stay and as glorious as our first some years ago.. difficult to book as the barn is so popular! We know why ... a wonderfully cozy atmosphere, beautifully decorated, creature comforts for 2 and 4 legged visitors. Lovely back garden, so peaceful and quiet with lots of birds visiting. Foothpath outside the front door ... We loved it and Alfie and Lexie were in seventh heaven ...
Kerry, April 2022
Two families of 9 adults and 6 dogs, we have just returned from a week at Misty Meadow. The most dog friendly place we have stayed. Lots of space for all of us, including a really big and fully enclosed garden for the dogs and a hot tub for the humans! Well equipped kitchen, comfy sofas complete with throws and a woodburner. Towels provided for the dogs. Lots to explore nearby including dog friendly pubs and the welcome goodies included bits for the dogs too. Highly recommend.
Clare, April 2022
Vineyard cottage in Easy Ruston. Very dog orientated cottage. Comfortable for the 4 humans too. Well equipped home from home. Near to beaches/pubs/shops (driving distance) otherwise in the middle of nowhere, ideal for our reactive dogs.
Alison, March 2022
We have had a wonderful week at the Lighthouse cottage, everything and more you could wish for us and the dogs , we love it here and never want to go home . We have already booked another holiday here and we’re counting the days before we’re here again. 5 star ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pam Dormer, March 2022
We have recently returned from a wonderful stay at The Lodge in East Ruston. What a fantastic place to stay, so dog friendly and comfortable for us! Ellie particularly loved the treats left for her, and the fact that no where was out of bounds. There was a lovely walk called the Weavers Way just minutes from the front door, and numerous dog friendly beaches just a short drive away. All in all, fabulous for us and Ellie. We definitely will be back.
Christine, March 2022
We stayed at Brian’s cottage and wow!!! This was the first time away with our 10 (yes 10) dogs and we could t have asked for more! The bungalow has everything you could want for a home from home and everything for my beloved pets to make them feel at home. The welcome was amazing and Tim and Liz were always on hand for anything we needed, including repairing a flat tyre! Sad to be leaving but we will be back x
John, March 2022
We stayed at Corner Cottage. What a joy. Wonderful accommodation, quiet and peaceful setting and most of all great for our dog Henry with excellent safe walks straight from the cottage. Would strongly recommend.
Juliet, March 2022
We’ve just got home from a week’s stay at White Cottage in Happisburgh. We had an amazing time. The cottage is beautiful; clean, warm, welcoming, and very dog-friendly. The owners have thought of everything. Really highly recommended by both the humans and dogs.
Vicky, March 2022
We’ve just returned from a short stay at Wagtail Cottage and I can honestly say that it was the best dog friendly accommodation we’ve ever stayed in. We have a crazy border terrier who absolutely adored the location being so close to multiple beaches and all the walks you could want.
The cottage itself is wonderful. Clean, fully stocked with everything we needed and the garden was secure for the dog to run around to his hearts content.
We’ll definitely be back. Can’t recommend this place enough.
Hazel, March 2022
Last day of our week at Hidden Gem 💎 in Winterton-on-Sea, one of East Ruston's cottages.
The cottage is in the most wonderful location for dogs as just past the back garden you are on the dunes, miles of them, then more miles of beaches.
When you have a few dogs this makes exercising them so easy.
The cottage itself is warm, welcoming, clean, stocked with all you need (and more) and has lots of interesting local, seaside and doggie features. All the rooms are superb and there is a lovely sunny conservatory where my dogs liked to sleep and sunbathe. Dogs allowed on the furniture with throws. Log fire, kitchen equipped fantastically, absolutely nothing we needed that wasn't there.
Outside tap, leads, bowls, throws, towels and more. My old boy is blind, deaf and has heart failure and he loves it here, he even managed the dunes and beach. My other dogs loved it too. Lovely owners and Sue who runs the Eaat Ruston website is super too.
Sad to be going home 😪
This is my second stay at an East Ruston Cottage and I'm back at a third in August.
Can't recommend more highly for proper dog friendly and welcoming accommodation.
Repeat bookings says it all.
Woof of approval from my dog squad too
🐾🐾💜
Sue, Husband and Hounds (4), February 2022
We have four pooches and East Ruston cottages (The Crib, Happisburgh) was absolutely perfect - exceeding expectations. Real thought has been placed into ensuring that both you and your fur-balls are well catered for. Very impressed with the welcome goodies - including some locally sourced dog treats. Other great things for hounds: Secure garden; Dog Tags; Dog First Aid Kit; Raised and Orthopaedic dog beds; plenty of dog bowls, towels, toys etc. We will 100% be using East Ruston again. Thank you.

Great accommodation dog secure
Tracey Purcell, February 2022
We were let down by another cottage company at the last minute and Sue at East Ruston Cottages responded to my messages even though it was a Saturday evening and she herself was on holiday! She asked me to email George who was covering the office, which I did, not expecting a reply until Monday morning (the day we were supposed to be travelling). To my surprise Sue had been in touch with George and there was an email from George waiting for me Sunday morning! Within hours our booking was all confirmed and what had been a very stressful experience (having our holiday cancelled less than 48 hrs beforehand) was now all forgotten as we were looking forward to a fabulous holiday in a beautiful dog friendly farm house with East Ruston Cottages. The customer service has been amazing!
Mandy Chamberlainhall, February 2022

Brilliant genuinely dog centred holiday company who really make sure their cottages are not just dog friendly but real home from homes for dogs and their owners

Christine Cairns, February 2022
East Ruston Cottages offer the best range of very dog-friendly accommodation in a beautiful area. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they are extremely customer-focussed.

Wonderful holiday cottages, to which you can take more than 2 dogs.
Hayley Farmiloe, February 2022
It is very hard to find anywhere to book when you have 3 or more dogs and kids so this company is brilliant at accommodating us. Thank you
Rebecca Brooker, February 2022
Fabulous properties - being dog friendly doesn't mean compromising on quality and the customer service from Sue is exceptional.
Caroline Murgatroyd, February 2022
We had a wonderful stay at Wag Tail Cottage, it was clear from the outset that the owners had made sure that every detail for the dogs had been well thought out. From crates / dog treats/ beds and even dog tags and leads they couldn't have been more at home.
Charlotte Burfitt, February 2022
Wonderful locations. It's all about the dogs. We have booked several times.
C Hayter, February 2022

When they say dog friendly, they mean it! It was a fabulous break
Gillian Booth, February 2022
Wonderful cottage with a fantastic location with the sand dunes and the beach directly behind the property. Great welcome hamper for both humans and dogs, much appreciated. Would highly recommend this cottage for a wonderful break.
Joy Simpson, February 2022
great cottages which are multi-dog friendly, not just for 1 or 2 dogs that many 'dog-friendly' places are. When you have 4 dogs getting somewhere to take them all can be a problem but East Ruston Cottages have plenty of choice of quality cottages.
Amanda Meach, February 2022
They are so welcoming to dogs, it's just like being at home with them. They understand that dogs are part of the family and that the holiday is as much for them as it is for you!
Amanda Rawson, February 2022
Genuinely dog friendly. Very rare to find places where there aren't endless rules and regulations for dogs. It's kind of "all dogs welcome but only with well behaved owners!!" Excellent.
Kath Oakes, February 2022
This is our second year with East Ruston Cottages and we have just booked for a third. Their properties are exceptionally dog friendly and a home away from home for us and our four legged friends
Gail Spilsbury, February 2022
Brilliant place and super dog friendly
evelyn price, February 2022

Excellent service from start to finish
Nothing too much trouble
Cottages are amazing and so geared up for our dogs
Corryn Nicholson, February 2022
This is a great company. I have stayed in many so called dog friendly cottages and this is by far and away the best company to use if you want a truly dog friendly holiday. They are the only cottages I have ever stayed in where you feel that your dogs are actually very wanted guests. It makes such a difference to your holiday. Also the cottages are absolutely stunning and completely welcoming. I can't rate them highly enough. The company is also ran in a totally efficient way.
Caroline Clark, February 2022
Amazing very dog friendly cottages

Victoria Beeching, February 2022
I have stayed with East Ruston Cottages on 4 separate occasions (in different cottages each time). Perfect location, perfect for families, pristine cottages, and when they say 'dog friendly' they mean 'dog friendly'. I have already booked for next year.
Dawn Brooks, February 2022
Everything is perfect for dogs and people
Michelle Meqn, February 2022
Never stayed in more dog welcoming cottages! Just makes a holiday so much easier - dogs go free, not having to bring crates and dog bowls etc - plus knowing all the gardens are secure means a much more relaxing week away. Wish all cottages were like ERC!
Richard Clark, February 2022
Fabulous attention to detail and care for the dog loving resident, hand crafted dog biscuits and fabulous local produce provided.
Mandy Barker, February 2022
Sue and her team always go above and beyond in preparing the cottages for us to use.There is always a fantastic welcome pack, and great goodies for the dogs too! Blankets, towels, spare leads, Pooh bags, you name it, they supply it. There is an extensive list of local walks, dog friendly places to eat, takeaway menu’s. what more can you ask for?
Sue Hebb, February 2022

Very friendly dog welcoming Holiday website.
Anita Muse, February 2022
Many dog-friendly cottages tolerate dogs but East Ruston cottages are truly dog-friendly and cater to the dog's needs as much as the owners resulting in a relaxing holiday for all of us. The cottages are in a lovely location with easy access to the coast and areas.
Beverley Lonsdale, February 2022
Because I see so many stunning properties I would like to stay at and then I see No Dogs. With you I can stay in a luxury property and have my Family Member with me! Thank you.
Ruth Rhodes, February 2022
The cottages are all about the dogs which is very reassuring as I know Blue will be safe and happy x Hoomans are also made to feel welcome, ensuring a lovely relaxing holiday

Maggie Long, February 2022
So lovely and clean and most of all very dog friendly
Chris Barnes, February 2022
Quite simply they're the best holiday cottage company that we've ever booked with.
So many companies claim to be "dog friendly" but in reality most are just "dog accepting" with lots of restrictions and conditions attached. East Ruston Cottages are different and truely are happy to welcome your dog(s) and go out of their way to make your holiday the best possible. They're always our first choice!
Susan Letch, February 2022
We return to East ruston cottages every year and love it 🤗 fantastic homes very dog friendly and in my opinion the best dog holiday

I can't think of anything else they could have done to make our stay more dog friendly or comfortable. We all had a great time
Charmaine Coulson, February 2022
The cottages are spotlessly clean, professionally run and totally dog friendly and welcoming. They are in excellent locations for both dog walking on the beaches and countryside. Nothing is too much trouble to the agency running them and all needs for humans and dogs are catered for at each cottage.
Joanne Cooper, February 2022
Their cottages are outstanding, just because I have lots of dogs doesn’t mean I want to stay in a kennel. Their cottages are beautiful, cosy, better than I could ever imagine and such a lovely company to deal with, nothing is too much trouble.
Sarah Wilton, February 2022
Dog friendly locations with plenty of extras including beds, tags, poop bags, treats, secure gardens, dog welcoming not dog tolerating

Although many properties claim to be dog friendly, these really are.
Deborah Crosfield, February 2022
I love travelling to cottages run by east Ruston you and your fur babies feel at home no worrying about my greyhounds sleeping on the sofa as they are 40 mile and hour couch potatoes and Sue makes every person and hound feel home from home 6 foot fences , food and treats for mr and my hounds I can’t wait to go again and neither can Clarence and Vegas .
Peter Hall, February 2022

Christina Hughes, February 2022
Lovely secure garden!
Sharon Baillie, February 2022
As an owner of 5 dogs 🐕 finding cottages who would accept them is so difficult. They are so dog fruendly. Had a fab week away with a lovely enclosed garden. Fab choice of properties too.
Suzanne Powell, February 2022
Knowing that every single house on their website is super dog friendly makes searching for our holiday cottage so much easier. We have 4 dogs between us so it is hard to find anywhere to stay. They go over and above to provide everything we might need to make our stay more comfortable and more enjoyable.
Victoria Prosser, February 2022
The most dog friendly cottage we have stayed in. Everything was there dog beds, bowls home made dog treats on arrival. It was fantastic
Richard Clark, February 2022
I've used ERH for our family holiday for the last 6 years as they understand not all dogs are small and well behaved. They provide holiday homes perfect for reactive rescue dogs and boy have we got one of them a dog we never thought we'd ever be able to take on holiday.
Thank you East Ruston Cottages we love you ❤😍
Natalie Diamond, February 2022
Their customer service is second to none. Covid 19 has been such a difficult time for us all and they have helped us along the way to reschedule bookings without any hassle and importantly made us feel valued. The communication is fantastic from start to finish. Then there is the properties/holidays themselves, so human and doggy friendly our recent stay was truly excellent. We all enjoyed it, our 5 dogs especially. I've never known another company allow as many pets. We usually have to kennel our dogs, but not this time and never again now that we have found ERC. They have thought of everything to enhance customer experience, by the items in the properties to make them a home from home (for us and the dogs), to the supporting of their local businesses and offering those links to customers before they arrive. We had a beautiful afternoon tea and brownie box delivered to the cottage for our 1st night, and we actually loved that we "shopped local" and we able to support a small business. ERC made that happen and did all the organising for us, brilliant. They also provided a lovely welcome box for us and each dog had their own bag of homemade treats, again from a local small business I believe. The dogs had everything they needed, bowls, blankets, stair gates, secure garden, lots of local walks and beaches to explore. We hope to return again very soon. They are excellent.
MASEYK Sally-ann, February 2022
So good to be able to take our dog with us
Nicole Hamilton, February 2022
Lovely cottages and so dog friendly which is hard to find.
Trevor Shelswell, February 2022
Perfect holiday with the dogs!
helen main, February 2022
truly dog friendly and not just dog tolerant. knows the needs of a dog owner who prizes the safety and comfort of their companion and wants them to join in the family fun of a holiday. i love how they tell you exactly what kind of dog each property is good for and the available extras are fantastic. even a freezer for feeding raw! other dog friendly establishments could learn from them and their business model
Leah Tench-Hughes, February 2022
Fully dog friendly holiday let’s where’s our beloved pets come 1st but with the luxury and high standards of what you would want and need on a holiday. Very friendly and approachable team who will do what they can for you. They have created a great community.

Carolyn Taylor, February 2022
Absolutely the best and most dog friendly cottages welcoming multi dog households. Both dogs and their hooomans want for nothing, many luxuries inside and totally secure gardens to play in. We have stayed numerous times and can honestly say no where else comes close to what East Ruston Cottages provide.
Collingwood Tracey, February 2022
The most dog friendly business you'll ever find!
Zoe, December 2021
Thatchers in Happisburgh was the absolute perfect location for a Christmas get away with family , friends and our two dogs . After nearly 2 years working as a nurse in urgent care and covid services , the thought of this stay is what has kept me going . I adored this property and wish the lucky owners a very happy retirement to this special place . Thanks so much .
Helen, December 2021
Hidden Gem an absolutely wonderful warm & cosy cottage with the beach on the door step. We had a lovely welcome pack waiting for us & the dogs had treats, toys & a ball all of which went down very well, Laura the owner was in contact with us before we arrived & during our stay just to make sure everything was ok. The love & care that goes into making your stay special is fantastic from both the owners & East Ruston Cottages nothing is too much trouble. A truly 100% dog friendly properties.
Sam, December 2021
Cornerways is highly recommended by us a great place to stay with all our dogs secure garden and welcoming with the basket of goodies & such easy access to the beach a good time had by all hope to be back again in the future 😊🐾🐾
Nicky Chapman, October 2021
Had a fabulous stay with them.
Jan Constable, October 2021
We have never stayed in a more dog friendly cottage. Safe, enclosed garden. A choice of 3 dog beds. A box of toys, spare leads/harnesses, poo bags, shampoo, doggie shower, throws on the sofas and dog treats.
So often, we have stayed in so called dog friendly properties, but turn out to be anything but (no dogs upstairs, not on the furniture etc), but East Ruston really do put our pooches first. What a lovely change to find a company who go out of their way to cater for dogs as well as their owners.
Fay Sturgess, October 2021
They are simply the best in finding REALLY dog friendly accommodation.
Estelle Fitton, October 2021
Dog friendly cottages near or on the coast, many cottages allow higher than the average 2 dogs, some are unlimited which makes holidaying with other dog owners a breeze. Fantastic facilities for both the human and four legged guests.
Jane Hill, October 2021
They are the best I’ve ever experienced!
Ann Hill, October 2021
Always a super dog friendly holiday x love them
Jane Poole, October 2021
100% dog friendly - especially love Heather Cottage and the Piggery
Claire Morrison, October 2021
The most dog friendly holiday cottages I've ever come across. It's so difficult to find places to holiday with four dogs, let alone more. Their holiday cottages are all about the comfort of the dogs which is amazing.
Lynne Kyle, October 2021
Excellent cottages- you know they all meet the standard. Take as many dogs as you want and none of this “keep dogs downstairs off the furniture “ business. The dogs are as catered for as humans are.
Sally Hickinson, October 2021
I love the fact that east rushton cottages always put everyone’s dogs first, it’s rare to get a holiday cottage that will accept pets let alone 8 dogs or more! Sue is fantastic and makes every holiday personal so you do not feel like just a number. Nothing is too much trouble and you always get a prompt response to any queries.
Robin Gennings, October 2021
Outstanding cottages!! Super dog friendly!!
Beverley Bratby, October 2021
Wonderful cottages and houses and so dog friendly
Lucy Howlett, October 2021
We have stayed with East Ruston Cottages and they were really dog friendly, we could take all three dogs, there were treats for us when we got there, the garden was huge and dog friendly and they really care about making their properties dog friendly.
Jayne Smithson, October 2021
The most dog friendly cottages I’ve found, & I search a lot, most have multiple dogs allowed, I have 3 dogs & can stay in all their cottages, provide lots of extras for dogs, in fact probably more dog friendly than people friendly, wish they weren’t just in Norfolk
Carol Marshall, October 2021
The cottages always look clean and dog friendly, sue the manager sound's very helpful and knowledgeable about walks and places to eat, would love to stay in one of there cottages

Myra Rose, October 2021
We have used East Ruston Cottages for our family Christmas and Summer holidays for several years. We cannot fault them they are the best in supplying VERY VERY Dog Friendly holidays and always go that extra mile to make sure everything is pawfect for humans and dogs. The cottages and their owners are very good as well we like the way that the dogs are always well accepted and there is no limit on the number of dogs (we have 4) and you are never made to feel that it is too many .We have even had presents under the Christmas tree with the dogs names on them which they thoroughly enjoyed and made our stay complete.
Katie Ambrose, October 2021
Dog visitors thought of and welcomed as much as the human ones!

Vivienne Monks, October 2021
They have been excellent throughout lockdown as we had to change our holiday multiple times, providing such a friendly and efficient service. The information they provide on each of the cottages specifically suitability for our dogs is second to none and invaluable when booking. It’s not always easy to get a holiday with 3 Leonbergers but it’s a pleasure booking with East Ruston Cottages.
Carol Keane, October 2021
They are lovely cottages, I have visited six at least. I have multiple dogs and so do my companions we all have a great time, very friendly and helpful, can’t fault them. Five star

Everything from crates, throws, towels, toys, bowls and treats provided for the four legged guests, and scrumptious cakes and treats for the humans. Super support from the ERC team at all stages from booking to ideas of what to do while there. I can't fault them, and highly recommend this company.

As a family of 2 humans & 6 dogs, we are very limited on where we can go for holidays. East Ruston Cottages solve that issue for us & our stay with them was idyllic! They really have thought of EVERYTHING that dogs & dog owners could want/need. :)
Victor Rybacki, September 2021
We have been holidaying in Norfolk with East Ruston cottages for a number of years - always the same cottage. It is well equipped, has all we need, is clean and comfortable with an enclosed dog friendly garden and near to places to walk our dog.

Best dog friendly company I've found.
Sean Thornton, September 2021
They are exactly what they say they are, dog friendly. The cottages are outstanding , comfortable, safe for dogs and you'd never think a dog had been in one when you arrive. The hospitality I have experienced from the Owners excelled all I have experienced with any other company. I took a disabled friend with me to one earlier this year and all the extra needs to make her stay comfortable were put in place. Been using East Euston Cottages since they began and won't use anyone else. 5 * all the way.
Sarah Pitts, September 2021
They have a wide selection of pet friendly lovely accommodation and their customer service was amazing
Topaz Duncan, September 2021
I have stayed in a few different houses with East Ruston and they are the most dog friendly I can find (with a lot of looking) you can really relax as they go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need for your pets. Even welcome packs are well thought out they have included biscuits and nose and paw balm (for the dogs) and beautiful cakes for the humans.
Jennifer Hughes, September 2021
We holiday here every year with our children and dogs. It just like home and never want to leave
Frances Watkins, September 2021
Fantastically dog welcoming

Redroofs September 2021
The peace and quiet ... On a private road overlooking one of Norfolk's largest and most beautiful Broads, this is relaxation heaven. Not a sound but the birds. Lots of dragonflies, but they don't make any noise.
Redroofs is a home not a house, a little quirky but immensely comfortable. There isn't anything that we need on holiday that seems to be missing from Redroofs - outdoor seating & dining facilities, gas barbeque, lots of sofas and armchairs, loads of china & kitchen equipment for those that like to cook, buoyancy aids for the rowing boat, terrific shower, comfortable beds ... The rear garden is enormous, very secure and not overlooked - peace of mind to let the dog(s) do their thing. The front garden is beautifully planted and is the bit with view.
Can't wait to go back.
Karen, September 2021
Stayed at The Crib in Happisburgh. Wonderful Cottage everything you need for a great holiday is in the cottage. The Cottage has a lovely homely feel with a great back garden that the dogs will love. There is some lovely walks that you can do straight from the cottage. The beach is just a very short walk away and is dog friendly. You can also have your shopping delivered as most supermarkets deliver to The Crib or there is a small shop in the village that sells essentials. Had a wonderful time staying here. Everyone is very friendly and helpful in the village.
Karen Jones, September 2021
We have used East Ruston Cottages on several occasions now. The cottages are always very clean very dog friendly. Sue is also very helpful should you need any help with questions about the properties.
Jacquie Drake, September 2021
Extremely welcoming, and make holidaying with a dog very easy and relaxing.
Irene Grubb, September 2021

They offer a really good service and their choice of accommodation and locations gives you so many options.
The owner and support staff are amazing.
Hilary Johnson, September 2021
We have had a few holidays in ERC properties (would have had more but for lockdown) and are returning for another next month. As well as all the properties being beautifully equipped for the humans, every possible thought has been given to the dogs' needs. The descriptions of each property are excellent, enabling one to make a choice which is completely appropriate to one's dogs: height of fencing, number of dogs - usually very generous - and priority is given to matters such as garden security, indeed all those details which are important to dog owners. Very simply, we wouldn't stay anywhere else!
Dale Pauley, September 2021
Such a dog friendly organisation that does not charge extra for dogs.
Debbie Pauley, September 2021
I am a repeat visitor to east Ruston cottages. They are not just dog friendly everything is about the dogs. To beds bowls leads home made dog treats waiting for them when they arrive. They even dog sit for you if you want to go out and your dog doesn’t settle being left. They literally think of everything. They even think of the humans to, but it’s really about the dogs. A lot of cottages have warm doggy showers . The customer service is brilliant. With Covid this last year it was no problem when holidays had to be cancelled you got a refund or transferred to another date. . Cannot recommend East Ruston Cottages enough.
Anne Hudson, September 2021
Excellent cottages, excellent service, excellent owners - what more can I say!

We have had so many holidays with East Ruston Cottages and have never been disappointed, they go above and beyond to ensure a good holiday is had by all and we constantly recommend to all our friends.

East Ruston Cottages are truly dog welcoming. The cottages are luxurious and a far cry from most dog friendly holiday cottages that make you feel like the poor relation. For me they are simply the best.
Susan James, September 2021
The most caring, and truly dog friendly company who enjoy getting to know the dogs and their owners.
Dee-Dee Arberry, September 2021
East Ruston Cottages add so much to the holiday experience. Booking is easy and friendly and ERC provide support throughout the whole time. You are invited to join their facebook page where advice on what to do during your stay is readily available, not only from Sue and her team at ERC but from other guests too. There are also holiday extras such as hampers and massages that can be arranged for you and pooches aren't just welcome they are encouraged to be part of the holiday considerations :-) Keep up the good work ERC !!

Although I've been wanting to go here for years now, it wasn't until this year 2021, that I managed to secure a booking! Totally fab! Our main criteria is for a safe area for our dogs, and this definitely fitted the bill! Great holiday, cottage superb, well, everything was!!
Sue Barlow, August 2021
What more could you wish for.
Marco Bortoli, August 2021
Easy booking, good customer service, extra services were relevant.
The cottage was extremely dog friendly with a stunning and secure garden. The region is again breathtaking and dogs are welcome everywhere.
KAREN, August 2021
I really don't know where to start; this house is amazing! There were 8 adults and 5 dogs in our party and there was plenty of room for us all. The kitchen has everything you need: more than enough plates, cutlery, glasses etc; plenty of pans and utensils and even a Tassimo coffee machine. The utility room was a great place to store all our doggy equipment and the snug was lovely to sit and read in. All the beds were comfortable and each room included hairdryers. There are lots of DVDs, books and games to keep you occupied and also lots of spare dog leads, dishes and beds (there is even a separate bin in the shed for the dog poo!) Our dogs had a ball! They loved the garden and, with a footpath straight over the road that led directly to the beach, it was ideal for our energetic spaniels. We will miss our walks to Sea Palling and Happisburgh! Overall, a fantastic time was had by all, infact the dogs' tails didn't stop wagging all week!
Rebecca Lunn, August 2021
The most dog friendly accommodation we’ve ever come across. Wouldn’t book anywhere else for our 5 dogs.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our second stay at Brian's Cottage. The welcome from Liz and Tim is exceptional - they are the perfect hosts. We were lucky enough to be there when they hosted a owner's get together and were invited to join them. It was a lovely evening with very tasty food - we can recommend booking a meal prepared by Liz whilst on holiday!! Also the extensive welcome pack again has gems made by Liz including cake, brownies, ciabatta, jam and marmalade, all of which are delicious. The cottage is very well equipped with everything you could possibly need, both for in the cottage and days out if you've forgotten anything eg leads, cooler bag, ice blocks etc etc. There is a very comfortable king-size bed - perfect for a good night's sleep. It's also in a great location - walks from the door and a short drive to the beach and many other attractions. We again enjoyed the sunsets from the garden and watching the birds in the front garden in the mornings. All in all a perfect week.
Tayla Mounter, August 2021

Warm welcome from the owners, Paul and Stella, secure garden and a paddock for the dog to stretch his legs.

Quiet, peaceful surroundings and stunning views make this a place we shall return to again and again.

Easy to use website and a great Facebook page, plus Sue in the office is really helpful.

Amazing cottages, customer service and care. Having a reactive dog makes going places difficult but that's no problem for Sue et all who understand reactivity and dog behaviour
Rutj Coston, August 2021
Sue the owner makes every dog and human feel welcome in every amazing cottage. Each cottage is fabuously clean, packed with everything you will need for both 2 legged and 4 legged visitors and each cottage is decorated beautifully and filled with comfortable good quality furniture. Sue is also trying to help local businesses, since being hit by Covid by offering their individual services to the holiday makers. She constantly advises holiday makers with up to date details of local pubs, restaurants, vets, and many more activities that will enhance a holiday. And she is always on hand to run to people's aid. So what more can I say, except, wonderful, fabulous, super, smashing and great 👍
Sarah Shelley, August 2021
They're dog encouraging over dog friendly. It's home from home for us all making a holiday here the most relaxing for all. Nothing is too much trouble.
Fay Sturgess, August 2021
They do what it says on the tin. They truly understand the term dog friendly in all the aspects that being a dog owner, a dog family and a dog lover means. The service they offer is second to none.
Tony W, August 2021
Exceptional range of venues which also includes those on a budget who may be disadvantaged otherwise.
Dogs and their owners are welcomed throughout and those without dogs are treated equally.
Julie Roberts, August 2021
Amazing- the cottage we stayed in had everything you could possibly want for your dog on holiday.
Dog treats, towels, bowls, spare leads, crates/baskets, poo bags, allowed on sofas etc. Plus info on dog friendly walks, beaches, cafes, vets, groomers etc
We could chill out & so did our dog!
Jane Ambrose, August 2021
All dogs welcome, including reactive. Multiple dogs can stay free and cottages are so well equipped with lovely added touches for dogs and humans. Highly supportive of local dog business.
Helen Hollis, August 2021
We have booked with East Ruston many times. Never disappointed in the cottages and fabulous for the dogs. Sue and her team are great to deal with and everyone seems to go that extra mile to make sure everyone has a fantastic holiday experience.
Julie Holman, August 2021
The properties are outstanding and super dog friendly. The team are so helpful and accommodating. Happy dogs Happy life!
Sarah Pelan, August 2021
Truly dog welcoming cottages, lots of doggy goodies proivded, and we felt relaxed with the dogs there, knowing the garden was totally secure.
Stephanie Sweeney, August 2021
Cater for dogs as well as owners. Dogs are thought of as part of the family not just an addition. Accommodation is of very high standard. Large number of dogs are welcome at properties. All questions are answered quickly. A five star experience.
Sarah, August 2021
Just got back from a week at Deepdale cottage in Sea Palling - didn't want to leave!
Cottage was very dog welcoming, with a comfortable dog bed provided which our 2 border terriers loved, also lots of dog toys, poo bags, and some home made dog treats! It was comfortable for us humans too.
Great location, with lovely dog friendly beautiful sandy beach within a short walk.
Definitely would stay again.
Margaret, July 2021
Fabulous cottage our dogs loved it, very dog friendly garden. Comfortable beds, lovely quiet village. We enjoyed the country walks as a change to the beach.
Alison Brown, June 2021
We’ve just stayed at Rooster Barn and it’s been lovely.
Out three greyhounds loved running around the garden and settled well.
Surrounded by beautiful countryside and based in the picturesque village of Trunch, it’s been a really relaxing week.
There are plenty of walks, including one to the coast, taking around 40 - 60 minutes, depending on how fast you walk.
The facilities at the barn were comprehensive, including throws and bowls for the dogs. The welcome pack was much appreciated.
Charles, June 2021
We stayed at Skylark on the Winterton Valley Estate and it was all we hoped it would be. A lovely and quiet site within a couple of minutes walk to the dunes and beach. The chalet was lovely, clean and well looked after and even though we took Rosie's bowls etc, the chalet was equipped with everything you would need for your dog(s) including throws. Would highly recommend this property.
Sally, June 2021
We are about to finish our wonderful stay at Seaview with East Ruston Cottages, and would have been so sad... except we’ve already re-booked for October! We found East Ruston Cottages through joining Dog Friendly - so two great finds for dog owners. So Seaview, like all of Sue’s ERC managed cottages, is fab for owners AND their dogs. Secure garden, no charge for dogs, beautifully done out, and little touches that make you feel so valued. Not our first ERC, and defo not the last! So thank you Sue, Leonie, and Dog Friendly from Jasper, Poppy, Dusky, Binky, and their humans.
Iain, June 2021
We have just returned from Hidden Gem and had the most fantastic time
Our two springer spaniels we’re in doggy heaven wonderful accommodation and wonderful beaches
We have never been to more dog friendly accommodation or dealt with such a helpful company as East Rushton
It was also lovely the owners contacted us to check everything was ok and we had some lovely conversations with them which made it special
Perhaps the biggest endorsement was we booked for next year on only the second day there !!
Thanks once again to East Rushton cottages and the wonderful owners of Hidden Gem
Iain Sabrina and two very happy springers Callie and Bran
Joan Lockett, May 2021
Our first stay at High Barn, hopefully not the last! We have been on several ERC holidays, REALLY dog friendly - not just, one small dog £25, but AS MANY AS YOU LIKE - FREE! Not once have we gone to a cottage and it smelt 'doggy'. Always high standard of cleanliness and friendliness! High Barn is at the end of an unmade road with magical views across the countryside and sea. Well thought out, seating all around this detached property, to catch the sun as it works it's way around. Walks straight from the property, and easy waking/driving distance to many of the lovely Norfolk beaches. Only downside, so popular is it solidly booked for 2021/22, but we will be keeping an eye open for any cancellations. Thank you to Sue (ERC) and Leonie (owner of High Barn) for making our first 'post Covid' holiday one to remember!
Sue, May 2021
Just back from a week in Misty Meadow at Hickling and we had a lovely time. It's a big. comfortable, well-equipped house with a huge garden (I think the dog thought we'd moved to the park). It's totally dog friendly. The hot tub is wonderful after a long windswept walk on the beach. Nearby is the fairly busy beach at Sea Palling and the deserted and beautiful Waxham beach with no dog restrictions at any time of the year. Boat hire is available (we had a few hours) to go on Hickling Broad within walking distance, as is the dog friendly Greyhound pub which serves good pub food. The owners of Misty Meadow provided a couple of OS maps in a folder too.
Joy, May 2021
Redroofs at Hickling - Year 10 visit no 17
No gimmicks – just perfectly dog-friendly and comfortable property in a stunning location!
Not particularly modern or flashy, Redroofs is an old & quirky property with a fabulous outlook in a quiet and stunning location. On a private road overlooking one of Norfolk’s quietest and most beautiful Broads it’s a real family home.
Such a relief to be able to leave the back doors open knowing the dogs can run around the huge dog-safe rear garden without doing any damage or getting lost. Lots of outdoor seating for the sunny times in the gardens maintained by the lovely Jimmy.
The kitchen is full of quality equipment, should you need it. There are carpets! This is great if your dog doesn’t like hard floors (like ours). It really is a home from home and that’s why we just keep on coming back...
Irene, May 2021
We stayed at RubyGem cottage last week with our golden retriever Hector. The cottage was so good that we booked another week while staying there. Can’t wait to come back. It is very close to both dunes and beach for lovely walks. The village is very nice and everyone very friendly. We really enjoyed our stay. Thanks very much.
Carl, May 2021
We have just had the most fabulous week staying at Heidi Corner, the cottage was beautiful and immaculate, We could not have wished for anything more from this property for us and our dogs and all the essentials like beds, throws and food/drinking bowls and even beach towels and toys were all provided. The welcome packs from both the cottage and ERC were fantastic and I highly recommend you ask Sue to organise the afternoon tea & Brownies from I'll cook you eat bakes by Paul which were fantastic!. The garden is totally secure and enclosed and the decking area is an absolute sun trap. The location was superb with excellent walks along the sand dunes and beach literally right on the doorstep and plenty of local amenities, pub, shop, tea room, chippy all less than 5 mins walk from the cottage. The hot tub was pure bliss after a day out walking the dogs and is in a little secluded area of the garden sheltered from any bad weather, with very comfy robes also supplied. There is lots to see and do in Norfolk and nowhere is more than 30 mins drive away from this ideal spot and we also ate out at some fantastic pubs all within 20 mins driving distance of where we stayed, as we were particularly blessed with gorgeous sunny weather all week. Everybody we met on our walks and all the local businesses were amazingly people/Dog friendly. I cannot highly recommend enough a stay at this fabulous cottage and the area itself. A truly dog friendly stay and a fantastic company to book through where everything in our and our dogs best interests was catered for, a truly unforgettable stay - Thanks Sue
Gillian, May 2021
Have just returned from a wonderful week at Wagtail Cottage, Ingham Corner with our 4 dogs. A lovely, quiet and cosy cottage. Dog beds, crates, throws for the sofa, Dog toys and bowls were all there if you needed them. Humans were also well catered for with comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, log burner and welcome pack. We ordered the afternoon tea to be at the cottage for our arrival and it was superb.
Country walks straight from the door and a short drive from some beautiful dog friendly beaches and pubs.
I would not hesitate to book with East Ruston Cottages again and in fact we have already! Sue made it so easy and responded promptly to any questions we had.
Diane, May 2021
Have just returned from Skylark chalet at the Winterton Valley Estate. Lovely comfortable chalet & well maintained throughout. Throws were provided so your dog could share the comfort of the sofa. My dog loved the fact he could lie on the sofa & watch people through the window in comfort. Lovely patio front & back with fixed windbreaks for the back patio to make it secluded. Stairgates to fit both front & back doors so the door could be open for fresh area without the dog escaping. Quiet site with lots of well maintained grassy areas. The area in front of the complex led onto the dunes but the grassy area itself was also good for off lead if the dogs are well behaved. Easy walk to Winterton village where my dog was able to join me at Poppy’s tearoom which he loved. The fact that we are still coming out of a pandemic was considered and comprehensive cleaning routine and covid protocols had been provided by the owners of the chalet and East Ruston Cottages. Definitely a place to visit again
Lesley, May 2021
It is the first time we have used East Ruston Cottages with our 2 dogs and it didn't disappoint!
We have stayed in accommodation that has allowed dogs many times, but there are always restrictions, like your dog is not allowed upstairs or on the furniture. Our dogs like to do both, so they were very much at home in Heather Cottage! Plenty of dog blankets and dog beds were provided as well as dog bowls, poo bags and some lovely locally made dog treats! Us humans were also very much catered for too with a lovely welcome pack of milk, eggs, juice and jam as well as toiletries for us all. The Cottage beautifully decorated and comfortable with a safe dog proof garden to relax in. We hope to return again next year!
Sarah, December 2020
We have just returned from a break at The Lodge in Stalham which was booked through East Rushton Cottages. It is the second time I have booked a break through them; VERY dog friendly accommodation, but genuinely dog friendly as opposed to those places that say they are but when you get there, the dog can't do this, the dog can't do that, keep the dog on a lead, don't let the dog go here, the garden isn't secure etc etc.
Their accommodation is truly finished with the pooch in mind. I have nothing but praise for the website and for Sue who administers it. She has responded promptly to every query I have presented. Excellent site and accommodation.
Lynne, November 2020
We stayed in St Benets in Sea Palling in Norfolk with East Ruston Cottages last month. This was our first experience with this company. Everything that we needed was provided for our 3 dogs, crate, dog baskets, bowls, dog treats, lead, throws for the sofa. The rear garden was fully secure so we could let them out with full peace of mind. There was lots of information in the property about where to take your dogs and wonderful walks nearby. There was a lovely welcome pack for the humans too. We asked to vary our 2 week stay to start and finish on a different day and they were completely flexible with this. We were running late to leave and met the lovely, friendly cleaning team. They couldn’t have been kinder. I would not hesitate to book again with this company, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish and a much needed break in a tumultuous year.
Elaine, November 2020
1st time using this company and have to say that it’s the most dog friendly I have used. We stayed at Rooster Barn and everything we needed for the dog was included, doggy throws for the sofa, dog bowls,toys, spare collars & leads, crates should you need them & a goody bag of treats. Fully fenced garden & plenty of walks close by Humans were well catered for too with a lovely welcome pack of local food plus bread, butter, milk, tea bags,sugar, all cleaning products towels, hand soap, the list was almost endless. Very comprehensive folders of local walks, restaurants & places to visit. Loved it so much we have booked another holiday with East Ruston for next year, would have booked Rooster Barn again but was fully booked.
Tina Collingwood, October 2020
Standards are so incredibly high. Owners are lovely and welcoming. Nothing is too much and the consideration for four-legged furry family members is simply second to none!
Julie Vaughan, October 2020
Because they are so helpful, nothing is any trouble with them. Booking is made so much easier with their help. Professional and friendly.
Alan Sansom, October 2020
Good holiday accommodation company. A lovely variety of holiday homes, run by a company small enough to give personal care.
Lauren Merrell, October 2020
Best dog friendly holiday accommodation ever
Lauren Risby, October 2020
Because they offer amazing truly dog friendly holidays
Alyson Wdowikowski, October 2020
Super dog friendly accommodation and the most lovely, helpful staff
lisa rusby, October 2020
They are the simply the best. Really dog friendly, other companies charge extra for dogs, have limits on no' of dogs and loads of restrictions. The owner Sue knows the homes and gardens and whether dog proof, nothing is too much trouble, I left something behind and this was posted to me no bother . Lots of current up to date info, places to go, places to eat. The website and write up of the homes is brilliant, you can really see what the homes and gardens are like. I've looked at other holiday companies, but keep coming back to East Ruston, nothing else compares.
Tracey Collingwood, October 2020
East Ruston Cottages really do put dogs at the heart of their business. I am a cottage owner with ERC and the philosophy of 'all dogs, no matter breed or size, being welcome' runs central to everything we do - so much so that we have never had guests stay in our barn without a dog. The most dogs we've had stay together is 13 and that's not even the record for ERC!
When designing the barn last year, Sue's advice to me in making it dog friendly was invaluable and guest after guest now comment on these features.
It's sometimes the little details that make the big difference - for example, ensuring the names and breeds of the dogs, alongside the details of the human guests, is included on the booking information helps me to add a more personal touch to welcome guests and their dogs to our barn. These things are not afterthoughts or a side note and demonstrate just how importantly ERC considers our doggy guests needs.
Beverley O'Connor, October 2020
We find it hard to book beautiful places to stay for our holidays which are dog friendly. It isn't a holiday without our dog Roxy.
Laura McAuliffe, October 2020
The best dog friendly holidays ever! Nothing is too much trouble for Sue and the team.

Christine Thornton-Clough, October 2020
Having visited many of the East Ruston self catering properties in Norfolk, I have found them always to be super places to stay and especially for my dogs to come on holidays with me.
Gill Simmons, October 2020
We stayed in a cottage with eight dogs for the first time this year, it was such lovely experience we will be back.
Suzanne Powell, October 2020
We stayed in one of their houses last year and I can honestly say we have never felt so relaxed and made to feel so welcome with our 2 dogs.

Cannot not fault them. All the cottages we have stayed in have been exactly as advertised. The locations are perfect for doggy holidays.
Garry Jamison, October 2020
Fantastic
Hilary Johnson, October 2020
So many holiday cottages are promoted as being dog-friendly, but in comparison with East Ruston Cottages they are non-starters. Every possible requirement of both dogs and humans is catered for, down to the smallest detail - and beautiful cottages, too.
Carolann Burchnall, October 2020
I have been to several of the cottages that East Ruston has available but on my first cottage I could not believe what a fantastic cottage and have not been with any other company since as it is so fantastic and have been back 3 more times.
Ruth Hickman, October 2020
Fantastic service, cottages are always as described and super, super dog friendly. Sue and her team certainly know how to make their clients and their dogs smile!

Valda Russell, October 2020
Couldn't be friendlier to dogs and humans
Teresa McWilliams, October 2020
These cottages and their owners are so geared up towards the visitors and their furry friends. The cottages have everything you need to enable you to have a holiday just like being in your own home and everything for your dogs to enjoy themselves is catered for. This type of holiday is definitely first class and the cottages are situated in such beautiful locations. Definitely recommend.
Sarah Shaylor, October 2020
We have stayed in their cottages a few times now, with some of our dogs. They are always extremely comfortable and very dog friendly.

Lynne Kyle, October 2020

Excellent cottages, the dogs love it and the team are great.

Superb , we and the 2 labs love it
Susan Sidwell, October 2020
Not sure if this counts but I was able to make a last minute booking at the Lodge in 2015 for me and 3 dogs. It was a wonderful place with very welcoming owners. It was so luxurious but so welcoming to my 3 dogs.
Susan James, October 2020
The friendliest manager, no limit on numbers or breeds. We can relax with our dogs in a beautiful part of Norfolk.
The BEST cottage company I've found.
Amanda Stott, October 2020
Amazing, unique dog friendly service
Kath, October 2020
We booked Brian’s Cottage through East Ruston Cottages. The service from East Ruston Cottages was superb and their face book page had lots of lovely posts which helped us to get the most out of our stay. Brian’s Cottage was delightful and we were greeted on arrival by Tim and Liz who kindly accommodated us and our dogs at the last minute. The Cottage is very dog friendly with a warm dog shower throws for the settee and beds, dog toys, fresh dog biscuits from Nero’s kitchen, leads, poo bags, everything canine is catered for beautifully. The Cottage itself is very clean and well equipped with a comfy bed and Netflix! We loved the matching doggy cups and saucers and cute apron and oven gloves. The kitchen had everything you could want to cook up a feast or more. A lovely home cooked cake, bread and marmalade awaited us on our arrival which was really appreciated after a long journey. The garden at Brian’s Cottage is really big and very very pleasant to sit in with the view out over the fields and countryside. We heard a tawny owl at night and deer in the night and the sound of peace for the rest of our visit which was really rejuvenating. We visited Bacton Woods and Sea Palling not to mention the lovely walks from the garden. Would thoroughly recommend Brian’s Cottage as a COVID aware and cosy base. Thank you Sue, Liz and Tim
christina kent, October 2020
their dog friendliness is amazing. they think of everything and provide everything. their pre holiday advice is useful so you cacn choose the best place to suit your dogs needs.
Tracey Wilkins, October 2020
We have used ERC for the past three years with next year booked already, every cottage barn is so comfy, cosy and super dog friendly. Sue and the owners do everything they can to meet your needs, so welcoming and you and your pooch/es have the best relaxing holiday ever in beautiful Norfolk
Carol Wells, October 2020
Superbly clean and welcoming cottages. I would stay in them even if I didn’t have 5 dogs.

Megan, October 2020
We've just had a lovely week at The Crib in Happisburgh, lovely cottage, great welcome pack, although we had taken our own things for the dogs, there was everything you needed there and it had a great big bath and a lovely shower for the humans. Great base for touring Norfolk
Anna, October 2020
Chapel Cottage - lovely cottage, very clean, perfect garden for dogs with high fences and lots to explore. Cottage well placed for lots of local beaches as well as countryside walks. Happy to recommend
Margaret Brain, October 2020
Just had a lovely holiday at Holmes House. Couldn't be more dog friendly.
Carl, October 2020
Had a fantastic stay at Edelweiss cottage for a mini autumn break. Tracie the owner made us feel very welcome and the cottage was spotless and well furnished. Everything is provided that you need for a relaxing break with your four legged friends. This is a superb location for discovering all the area has to offer and the exceptional dog friendly county of Norfolk. the welcome pack was a nice touch and the home baked cake and honey were lovely. I would highly recommend a stay here and would certainly book and stay here again.
Terry W, October 2020
Farthing Cottage In Trunch, North Norfolk, is a modern building in an older style in keeping with Norfolk tradition.
It is set with walking distance of both the general store and The Crown village pub.
There are good walks in the area, and is within easy driving distance of the coast. We found Bacton beach (car park near the caravan park) and Sea Palling are especially good for allowing dogs to run free (do check for when the tide is out!).
The cotage is cosy and the log stove adds to the atmosphere. All the facilities we needed were included.
The rear garden is fully enclosed and although not large it was big enough for our greyhound x to run round in. The patio area would be nice in the summer as it catches the evening sun.
It is a real "dog friendly" property with the owner leaving a dog goodie bag with treats, dog wipes and other extras There were also treats for humans!
Be aware that during Covid restrictions some pubs/restaurants were not open at lunchtimes and in the evenings had limited availability.
Jan Ottley, October 2020
Because they are just the best! Sue is a dog lover and she knows how important it is for dog owners to be able to relax while on holiday. East Ruston Cottages provide the necessities for dogs - beds, bowls, throws for sofas, and some provide washing facilities and toys and treats even pooh bags! But the best reason for booking with East Ruston Cottages is that each holiday home is just that, a home from home, for everyone.
My best recommendation is that ERC visitors become friends. If you don’t believe me, go on to the website and read the reviews.
ERC is in a class of its own!
Lyn Burrows, October 2020
The personal service given by Sue Allen is beyond outstanding. We have stayed at many of the Easr Ruston Cottages over the years and never been disappointed in any of them. Uber dog friendly with anything you might need for your canine companions provided. Superb locations, spotlessly clean, ultra secure gardens for even the most determined escapee and everything in the cottages planned to give you the most welcoming arrival and comfortable stay imaginable.
Well done Sue and team.
Richard Clark, October 2020
We use them every year the cottages are fabulous & they dont insist on a medium size well behaved dog!
Jayne Brazier, October 2020
The cottages are wonderful, in great locations & most important of all, are incredibly dog friendly! Nothing is ever too much trouble, couldn’t wish for more!
Sandra Merrell, October 2020

Robert Winders, October 2020
Fab dog friendly cottages escape proof gardens and BIG! Great walks near by beaches, woods or paths
Carolyn and Qamar Taylor, October 2020
We have recently returned from a wonderful holiday in White Cottage with our furry foursome. Such a cosy homely cottage with a huge, safe garden for the furry family members to play in. Everything is so well thought out with every need possible catered for. There are some lovely walks from the door or a very short drive to cafes and beautiful beaches, all of which are very welcoming to dogs. Truly dog friendly in every way ! You honestly can't beat East Ruston Cottages for a perfect, relaxed break away.
Sheila Rowan, October 2020
Dog friendly means dog friendly not like many other cottages! It’s a real home from home with total understanding of how our dogs are a big part of our lives, not just a second thought. Cottages are spotless and beds, for everyone are wonderfully comfortable. Wouldn’t use anyone else since discovering East Ruston Cottages!
Helen Field, October 2020
They are so much more than dog friendly. Luxury cottages where dogs are priority.

I celebrated my 60th birthday at Thatchers with friends and dogs this year and it was pawesome . Nothing is too much trouble for Sue to sort out for you , she looks after returning visitors so well and the dogs are so very well catered for . Can’t recommend them enough . ERC just go the extra mile in every way .

Absolutely the most dog friendly beautifully thought out cottages we have ever been to ! Wonderful to be able to take our furry foursome on their favourite beach holidays where multi dog families are truly welcomed and both two legged and four legged guests are so superbly catered for.
Louise Edmonds, September 2020
Having stayed at several of the cottages over the last 5 years I can honestly say these are the best and most dog friendly properties I have ever stayed in.
Lynn Sparks, September 2020
They are outstanding. They cater for your dogs every need as well as yours. You can leave your dog in the cottage and go out with peace of mind and they will even dog sit if needed. Your welcome pack includes doggie treats.....Humans are catered for as well
Jennifer Hughes, September 2020
We holiday every year at one of their cottages with kids and dogs. We always feel at home and never want to leave
Katie Guppy, September 2020
We have been on 2 holidays with east Ruston cottages and they are superb. Also the customer service is wonderful and we are booked again for next year. Highly recommend to everybody.
Jane Francis, September 2020
The attention to detail is amazing when you stay at any of their properties. From the welcome basket, including handmade dog treats to the array of furnishing provided so your dog can cuddle with you. Just WOW. We love staying.
Jackie O'Neill, September 2020
Because so many places say dog friendly when they are merely dog tolerant. East Ruston Cottages Holmes House is truly dog friendly from dog biscuits as part of the welcome pack to a lovely cold bowl of water for the dogs on arrival even a choice of mattresses for the dogs and truly enclosed garden and lovely homely cottage dogs and humans will love it equally we were so impressed we have booked it twice for next year!!
Katharine, September 2020
After all that 2020 has given us so far, a stay in High Barn & the lovely Norfolk was just what was needed! We stayed as a large family group with 2 dogs and had a brilliant week. High Barn is a wonderful place with everything you could need for your holiday. The hot tub was an added bonus and we would definitely recommend you book this to use during your stay. The views from the balcony were stunning and watching the sunrise over the sea is something special. The dogs loved the secure garden, snoozing by the log burner and running on the ‘secret beach’. The welcome pack was great with loads of ideas of things to do. Between us, we did a lot in a week but highlights were a visit to Happisburgh Owls (book ahead) a visit to Horsey beach to see the seals and a boat trip on the broads. Other trips out included breakfast at Smallsticks Café, walks in Bacton Woods, Winterton beach, Cart Gap, Sea Palling, East Ruston Old Vicarage Garden, Meales garden centre and a meal out at the Lighthouse Inn in Walcott. We also ordered meals in from The Ingham Swan and The Mermaid’s Slipper which were delicious. Thank you Sue & Leonie for a very special family holiday with lots of memories to treasure. None of us wanted to come home! We hope to be back again soon.
Stuart Letch, September 2020
No better anywhere in the country for dog friendly holiday cottages (don't need dogs to stay ),Norfolk is super friendly to both hoomans and their dogs
Jayne Fletcher, September 2020
They are amazing, totally dog friendly and everything is catered for which means a relaxing and enjoyable holiday.
Debs Warren, September 2020
Truly dog friendly . We know there’s lots of places the dogs are allowed. They take the worry out of everything.
Dawn Wigmore, September 2020
Because I'm about to visit for the 5th year in a row. Great dog friendly specific accommodation for a restful enjoyable holiday. Always with attention to detail and lots of extras for the dogs
Linda Sutton, September 2020
Have had a few short breaks with them over the years. Always a friendly welcome. We look forward to our next stay in November.
Hilary Keens, September 2020
Perfect. Everything thought of from enclosed garden and spares of essentials to even an outside hot and cold shower.
Rachel Brown, September 2020
We've now stayed at 3 different ERC over the last 6 years and we wouldn't stay anywhere else. Genuinely dog-friendly rather than tolerant and the only place we've ever really relaxed whilst taking 3 dogs away. Sue is so helpful and nothing is too much trouble
Angie Dunford, September 2020
The most dog friendly place ever.
Sandra Harrington, September 2020
Had our first holiday with East Ruston Cottages this year, the accommodation was first class, very dog friendly. Would highly recommend them.
sauro coletti, September 2020
ho yesssssssss simply the best dog heaven
Heather Preston, September 2020
Their cottages are truly dog friendly
Stella Grumann, September 2020
We stayed in one of their fabulous houses earlier this year - and not even Hurricane Wilma could spoil it. The owner was welcoming and very helpful. And Sue at East Ruston is so lovely - she knows the properties inside out and answered my (numerous!) questions promptly. My rescue dogs loved their first weekend away! A fantastic company, thank you.
Dee-Dee Arberry, September 2020
The most dog-friendly accommodation we have stayed in. Most have restrictions regarding where the dogs can go and instructions to the owners on how to behave in the accommodation so travelling, even with well behaved dogs becomes a worry. However, booking with East Ruston Cottages the holiday starts at the booking stage. Sue is an expert in this field and she treats dog owners with respect and as adults, a perfect recipe for a relaxing holiday for ALL the family
Katie Fletcher, September 2020
Great cottages and always dog friendly!
Gemma, September 2020
Just got back from a lovely weekend at Victoria Cottage. Owners were really friendly and helpful!!
Cottage had everything you needed and the beds were one of the comfiest beds we’ve ever stayed in!!!
Definitely recommend the Mermaid Slipper and the Rishi Indian restaurant too!!
Loved taking the dogs on the beach and visiting the seals at Horsey.
All of the dogs had a fantastic trip away and we can’t wait to come back to Norfolk next year!
Samantha Fairgrieves, September 2020
Dogs are very welcomed
Val McPherson, September 2020

Tracy Taylor, September 2020
Best dog friendly cottages that I have stayed in. Just like a home from home.
Mark Kelly, August 2020
Not many places take properly multiple dogs, it's lovely when you find one and even nicer when they're run so well.
Diane Lane, August 2020
So very welcoming to both human and canine visitors
Juliet Jones, August 2020
So many cottages to choose from in different locations. booking made so easy via Sue. all properties are so dog and people friendly. have been holidaying in norfolk in these cottages for over 10 years and never been disappointed.
Gill Dunn, August 2020
We have stayed in many dog friendly cottages around the UK but none come up to the same standard as East Ruston. They provide outstanding accommodation which are truly dog friendly...…..most are just tolerant and have many rules!!
We have stayed several times at Holmes House, Red Roofs, The Piggery and cant wait for our first visit to Brian's Cottage next year.
Norfolk is fabulous, always a pleasure to visit the area.
Well done Sue and ERC team
Anne Hudson, August 2020
ERC, Sue, the owners, cleaners etc all work together to make holidays stress free and thoroughly perfect. The range of cottages has something for everyone and you can be assured that they're all fabulous.
Melanie, August 2020
A truly dog and people friendly holiday. Everything we needed and the dogs needed was at the cottage. We have three more stays booked (including one in 2022) - that speaks volumes. Perfect.
Hilary Clements, August 2020
Exceptional accommodations with dog needs catered for, and no charges for dogs either
Connie Simpson, August 2020
Best equipped cottage with friendliest owners we have ever stayed in.

Totally reliable, wonderful safe dog friendly cottages with everything you need for your dogs and delightful accommodation for the humans to. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
Fiona O’Donovan, August 2020
5 holidays in East Ruston Cottages and each one fabulous.
Utterly and completely dog friendly. No rules that dogs must stay in the floor/in the kitchen/downstairs.
The cottages are all beautifully clean and well maintained, nothing dog-eared at all.
James Wells, August 2020
A superb cottage and location
Digby Saunders, August 2020
You can't beat the Norfolk Coast for dog friendly areas
Chrissie Ward, August 2020
The cottages are all run and cared for with an amazing high quality of customer service , an endless commitment to ensuring holiday makers and their four legged friends have the best holiday experiences .

Proper dog friendly.
Reasonable price.
Lovely beaches and countryside nearby, some traditional seaside towns not too far away.
Elle Green, August 2020
Lovely accommodation for humans as well as dogs
Pat Bailey, August 2020
The only proper dog "friendly" and not just dog tolerant holiday cottages I've ever known. No extra charge, many cottages have no restriction of amount and type of dogs. I wish that every dog friendly holiday let was like these ones.
Kate Prasser, August 2020
Our dogs were not just "permitted", they were as welcomed, indulged, comfortable and safe ..... they were treated as guests. Just when you think ERC can't get any better, they add another touch of magic to a perfect holiday.
Beverley Rawlings, August 2020
Am amazing service with incredible Properties. We come back year after year and wouldn’t dream of using anyone else to arrange our holidays.

Penel Malby, August 2020
They’re the best!
Anne Green, August 2020
because they have very high standards in everything they do and are super dog friendly especially as in most places thereis no limit to the amount of dogs you can take and there is no charge. Super fanrastic.
Vanessa Jones, August 2020
Because they are just fantastic, we wouldn’t book a cottage anywhere else, so dog friendly and Sue is just brilliant
Ingrid Howarth, August 2020
Outstanding properties, attention to detail and amazing customer service.
jon Houghton, August 2020
Everything is setup perfectly for both humans and dogs to have wonderful enjoyable break
Caroline Wheatley, August 2020
They make holidays with you dogs (and multiple dogs) so easy! Having 3 large dogs its not easy finding places to stay that are so accommodating and that do not charge extra!
Julie richards, August 2020
Nothing is too much trouble and finding a company which actively encourage your dogs to stay at their properties with excellent safety measures is fantastic. We couldn't go to our booked house in the may 2020 half term due to covid and Sue went above and beyond to find us another property for 2021. Very impressed with their communication and service.
Kerry Brind, August 2020
Gorgeous, ultra dog-friendly properties, everything is thought of, from bowls and beds to secure gardens and local walks. All the properties are in a great location and Sue (and the ERC team) are super helpful on social media at sharing and suggesting great things to see and do in the local area. The new covid-safe insurance for this year is the cherry on top. WE LOVE ERC!!
Susan Dyer, August 2020
Great company, that goes the extra mile to make your holiday perfect. Unlike a lot of companies dogs really do go free and in most cases numerous dogs.
Helen Farrow, August 2020
Fantastic accommodation with truly dog friendly facilities in a beautiful County.
John Wright, August 2020
Most supposed dog friendly cottages only scratch the surface when it comes to taking multiple dogs with you. East Rushton offer excellent properties that allow multiple dogs no questions asked or extra monies That's why they have a loyal following
wendy hambleton, August 2020
Always amazing, stress free stays in homes that make sure your dog has freedom to relax and you're not worrying about paw prints everywhere. Clean, well stocked for all humans and dogs needs and great customer service from Sue and her team of owners and cleaners.
Janet Atkins, August 2020
The best dog friendly company we’ve found in the UK . Great choice of properties and efficient friendly bookings and management has brought us back to Norfolk from far away!
Lesley Writtle, August 2020
Great friendly people who look after us and our dog magnificently

Sarah Wynn, August 2020
ERC are all very well presented holiday properties great info on the website especially in these strange times. They go above a beyond to make sure holiday makers needs are met and exceptional service for our furry friends
Mia Pettersson, August 2020
They are simply the best when it comes to dog friendly self catering cottages! We have been to Devon, Cornwall, Cotswold, Suffolk, Isle of Wight, Somerset, Yorkshire, Lake District and Wales and nothing compares to East Ruston Cottages, very nice cottages and super service - loved by 4 owners and 3 happy dogs!
Janet Carter, August 2020
Everything ,and I mean everything for our four-legged friends is provided for..
Claire Smith, August 2020
Wonderful customer/dog care.
Steven Klein, August 2020
Not only is the accommodation 5 Star for humans, it's also 5 Star plus for fur babies ! And at no extra cost...
Joanne Jackson, August 2020
Amazing company very knowledgeable nothing is too much hassle
Beccy Atkin, August 2020
I have been on several ERC holidays with my dogs. Each cottage is super dog friendly and Sue at ERC does an incredible job with communication. She goes out of her way, for example when we locked the cottage keys in the cottage within 10 mins of arriving !!
She is always courteous, helpful and enthusiastic. I love that they also run a charity fund where £4 from each booking is split between 3 dog related charities.
Sue Lawson, August 2020
Fab part of the country. So many cottages say they are dog friendly but don’t have secure gardens which, for my two is a must have. The owner is friendly and very knowledgeable
Graham Farrow, August 2020
The only true dog friendly cottages we have found. They go the extra mile and them some, and it never compromises on the quality of the accommodation.
Victoria Morgan, August 2020
Stayed in cottages with 4 dogs & all lovely & welcoming with all you require & no hassle. Deposit money back guarantee at this time is fab also.

So welcoming for all dogs...... And well behaved humans.
Lisa Digby, August 2020

This company is superb in every aspect of ensuring people with their dogs have a fantastic holiday in wonderful accommodation. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Highly deserving of winning.
Gerri Hickman, August 2020
When it says dog friendly on a holiday cottage, there’s usually a list of dos and donts! Not with East Ruston cottages. Dogs come first! But that doesn’t mean second class accommodation. We stayed in Thatch cottage last year and it was stunning. Everything you’d need and more. Looking forward to returning this year to Farthing cottage.
Karen Willmer, August 2020
100% recommend ERC for doggy holidays. Everything you need for the perfect holiday. The cottages we have booked in the past have been 100% dog safe.
Jackie Emens, August 2020
Just simply the best.
Abigail Earnshaw, August 2020
We have had 2 stays in different properties now and would never book anywhere else. Having 2 large dogs we can find it difficult and some places just don't want you, but ECR is the complete opposite. Sue is amazingly helpful & has aided us in finding the right cottages for our dogs everytime. All the cottages are so dog welcoming & yet nothing is spared in the quality or cleanliness. An absolutely, truly, dog friendly holiday cottage business!
Helen Rippey, August 2020
Because they are totally dog friendly ??
Peggy Searl, August 2020

Goes out of their way to help people especially offering advice around covid etc

Perefect relaxation for dogs and humans, easy from first booking to arriving, only bad points about these holidays is the having to go home at the end.

We have stayed in one of their properties for the last 3 years Nd have another 4 holidays booked with them! Super dog friendly and excellent customer service! Would definitely recommend!
Rachel Witzenfeld, August 2020
They just get what it means to be dog friendly. Customer service is also excellent.
Lindsay O’Garro, August 2020
When you take your dogs away with you it’s no holiday if the properties are barely ‘dog tolerant’. At East Ruston Cottages dogs are welcome which makes for a relaxing holiday for both humans and canines.
Carina Wills, August 2020
THE BEST dog friendly holiday accommodation in the whole of the UK. No one can beat it, hands down.

Jayne Stanton, August 2020
We have always had a great holiday cottage spotless and so so dog friendly

Linda Tirebuck, August 2020
This is our third year with East Ruston Cottages and we have had a fantastic time each year. Sue and her team have been fantastic and had gone out of their way to make our holiday such a good one.
Amanda Tasker, August 2020
Having holidayed with two dogs for the past 15 years we have tried all sorts but ERC are just the best, they don’t just accept dogs but are truly dog friendly. We felt we were travelling light - dog beds, bowls, throws, towels and toys all provided - saved so much room in the car! Nothing is too much trouble, from booking to advice on local shops, walks, beaches and dog friendly places to eat. Sue is an absolute treasure, she puts in so much work and her business is a huge success because of her. I can’t recommend ERC highly enough - the only company for real dog friendly holidays as far as we’re concerned.
Christine Cairns, August 2020
Fantastic range of high - quality, dog-friendly cottages in beautiful part of the country.
Susan Woodward, August 2020
This has to be THE best ever animal friendly cottages we've stayed at. The dogs are thought of from making sure fencing is good, have dog beds or throws. Having toys and dog biscuits for them. Our dogs think it's amazing because they have lots of fun in the gardens playing and we feel relaxed so we don't have to worry.
Linda Baker, August 2020
Because they are truly dog friendly . Allow multiple dogs they realise are part of the family . The cottages are exceptionally clean , well equipped and the owners go out of their way to make you feel welcome .
Jayne Bridge, August 2020
They are totally dog friendly and welcoming, not just dog tolerant like other companies. I wouldn't stay with anyone else now.

Tracey Collett, August 2020
They are so passionate about making their cottages dog friendly.. it’s like “the dogs can come and Oh, if you must bring a person, Ok then!! ?
Elizabeth Daniell, August 2020
This would be a long list.... most importantly they are truly dog friendly and not just dog tolerant. You can take all your dogs and you do not have to pay for the privilege. The humans and dogs are both well catered for and the cottages are really lovely, vey high standard and attention to detail. Real home from home. East Ruston Cottages are the best . Well done team.
Dale Pauley, August 2020

Dawn Bissett, August 2020
They are simply the best dog friendly holiday places we have been to
Joy Starkey, August 2020
Lovely cottages in terrific locations, no charge for the dogs, no limit on size of the dogs. Often no limit on the NUMBER of dogs either, and normally no restriction on where the dogs can go in the house.
The dog is as important as the humans at ERC, it's their holiday too.
Jenny Maybridge -Edwards, August 2020
Always provide a fantastic service, very friendly and accommodating, and of course they don’t charge for dogs !
Melanie Harmer, August 2020

I love the choice of properties and how lovely they are, the most dog friendly company I’ve used

Lynn Warrener, August 2020
Excellent choice and service
Wendy Nixon, August 2020
Because East Ruston Cottages is run by Sue who personally I think is an absolute star. She goes above and beyond to make sure all her guests are happy.
The cottages are always well equipped, spotlessly clean and there is never any fuss about your dogs with do’s and don’t’s. In short it makes for a perfectly relaxing holiday.
We have visited at least twice a year for the past five years. This year it would have been four visits (COVID) but we have managed three.
Yvonne Watts, August 2020
East Ruston Cottages offer superb properties and I have never been disappointed with my stay in them. Sue is very helpful and prompt in her replies. Absolutely recommend their properties for anyone with dogs.
rachel clark, August 2020
The gardens are really secure, the dogs are made really welcome and the cottages are of a very high standard.
Andrew & Family, August 2020
Beautiful & Relaxing sums up this place. Just back from a week in the wonderful Thatchers Cottage, a delightful and spacious house in stunning landscaped gardens. Everyone had a wonderful time including our four french bulldogs who just loved doing zoomies up, down and around the massive lawn. Im sure we will visit again, so much to do in the area too with the beach a 5 min walk away and only a short drive to other local attractions. Superb !
Janice Marshall, August 2020
Very very dog friendly. Beautiful cottages with enclosed gardens.
Virya Jyoti, August 2020
We had last Christmas at St Benets. So wonderful to stay in a very comfortable and clean house, be able to take all of our dogs, and feel thoroughly relaxed! Originally we would have had 6 dogs but in the end only 4 came. Short walk to the sea, open fire......what more could you want!
Sandra Knight, August 2020
Fabulous properties, truly dog friendly unlike some that claim to be, no never ending list of don't do this or that. Extra touches like bowls, toys, spare leads, beds etc.
Joan Lockett, August 2020
Been a customer of ERC for years now. Never fail to impress. Truly dog friendly, no '1 small dog allowed' but, bring as many as you want! That is what dog friendly means - ERC!
Joanne Cooper, August 2020
My experience with east Ruston cottages was exceptional from start to finish. The personal touches were lovely and so are the properties, it was a beautiful home from home, not what I expected pitching up with 6 dogs but it was perfect.
Ella Eccleston, August 2020
Kindness & care, & above all: so very pet friendly.
Maggie Long, August 2020
I voted because I have had wonderful holidays at Badgers The Lodge and 2nd time next month of going to Hidden Gem, it’s name says it all.
Irene Grubb, August 2020
Because we have stayed at several of their properties. All have the same very high standards and dogs very welcome no charge for them an when you have 9 dogs in family that really makes a difference. East Ruston Cottages ROCK always our 1st stop for family holidays
Alice, August 2020
Our first holiday with our dog Henry could not have been more perfect. Heather cottage was exceptional - clean, comfortable and amazing location near a beautiful beach (dog friendly all year). Everything was there for Henry and us- secure garden, dog beds, bowls, crate and dog biscuits. We met so many other lovely dogs around at the beach, pubs and cafes - this really is a dog paradise - we will be back!
Dawn Melloy, August 2020
Simply the most dog friendly accommodation available. Gardens secure, dog beds, bowls, spare leads and treats provided. Throws provided so that fur babies can snooze on the settees. Nothing is too much trouble.

Simply the best dog friendly holiday cottages around. Easy to use website with so much choice; admin staff always on hand to help with any queries very quickly; easy to book and pay with guaranteed money-back cancellation insurance for peace of mind. We have used them many times now and have always received a warm welcome and been treated as a valued customer. It is such a pleasure to know that any garden will be truly secure for our terriers and the cottages are so well maintained in beautiful surroundings, most with easy dog walking and amenities straight from the door. This is a very special company that truly values its' client and to top off the perfection, East Ruston Cottages also fundraise for animal rescue charities which is very dear to our heart. Book early though to avoid disappointment!

They are all about the dogs, everything they do is for them . Which is very unusual these days x

My family and I, including our dogs of course, have been taking holidays with East Ruston Cottages for several years and are never disappointed. The dogs are so well catered for as well as us, and we love it!

Most dog friendly properties going..never have to worry about any property you pick and know that all gardens are fully secured unless stated. Walk into a property like it’s Dogs holiday first and humans second.. clean and tidy properties in amazing locations. What more could you ask for..x

East Ruston Cottages have been so flexible during Covid-19. We were due to stay in May 2020 and this had to be cancelled. We had a full re-fund and were able to re-book for a week in August.
Sue and her owners and support team have been superb to put new safety measure in place and help bring back a sense of normality.
Can’t wait to re-book for next time.

The most dog welcoming holiday lets we’ve come across.

We have just returned from a super stay in the lovely Thatch Cottage, Lessingham. It is perfectly located for country walks, beach trips and pub lunches and we had a truly relaxing week with our three dogs. The cottage is perfectly geared up to hosting families and dogs - it is really well kitted out and has a lovely large garden. We all felt very welcome and at home.
We have stayed in several places managed by East Ruston Cottages and they have all been clean and really well-appointed. Dogs are truly welcomed and Sue is always on hand for advice if needed.

10 visits and counting !
I honestly cannot praise ERC and Sue enough . Having stayed in 10 different properties with ERC from the Lodge sleeping two, to most recently Thatchers sleeping 10 and many points in between, I can honestly say that they are fantastic and we have never been disappointed . Nothing is too much trouble and we have always had a comfortable and peaceful stay in all the properties . Human and canine needs are catered for superbly. Needless to say our two beagle girls love their trips to Norfolk and ERC properties . We just love ERC , and Sue is a star and always so very helpful.

Hidden Gem at Winterton-on-Sea was well named: it was a fabulous cottage backing on to the dunes. The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable and cosy stay - even with Storm Dennis at its peak. It was warm & welcoming and even included a basket of goodies on arrival. Everything was geared up for a relaxing stay, with dogs catered for completely. I parked my car outside when we arrived and didn’t need to move it until we left the following Friday: Winterton had everything we needed right on our doorstep - a dog-friendly pub (Fisherman’s Return), two dog-friendly cafés (The Dunes & Poppy’s Tea Room), a Post Office and convenience stores & a fish & chip shop. What more could we need! The locals were friendly & welcoming too... And then there were miles and miles of unspoiled beaches and dunes to explore - utter bliss for dogs & people alike. We will definitely be back. Thank you, East Ruston Cottages!

We had a fabulous Christmas week at St Benets. We were delighted that they were open to having 9 dogs, although in the end only 4 dogs came on holiday. There were throws so the dogs could lay on the sofas with us, a fabulous open fire that they enjoyed! And the garden was very secure which was essential to us. We were 5 mins from the sea where the dogs could run free . There was a dog bed and blankets and towels, doggie treats left too . I think the main thing was we felt we could relax totally knowing the dogs were welcome. The house was clean, very comfortable and very relaxed . Perfect for our party of 6 adults and two children aged 7 and 2, plus of course our four dogs. Thoroughly recommend the cottage and East Ruston Cottages.

Hidden Gem is a very special hideaway from all the stresses of the world. This property is just gorgeous and so lovely that everything for the dogs is also taken into account too with plenty of throws and dog towels provided.
A highlight for me was that the back double bedroom overlooks the dunes and just having the windows open and listening to the sound of the wind through the grasses combined with the sound of the sea is magical both in the day and at night to drift off to sleep to. The house has everything thought of for you and is very nicely decorated throughout. We all adored walking straight out onto the dunes from morning through to night for our dog walks and being so close to the sea is a bonus for those long, leisurely beach walks.
Lovely to have a cafe, tearoom and pub all in the village itself and all accepting and accommodating dogs whilst providing some gorgeous food too!
Nearby villages are easy to get to both by foot and car (depending on how energetic you're feeling).
This holiday had everything we could have wanted and more, so nice to also have a little welcome tray on arrival. Ours had jam, bread, apple juice, a jam roly-poly sponge and some Nero dog biscuits (which ours loved) as well as a pint of milk in the fridge and tea and coffee to get you started. It's so wonderful to walk in somewhere, instantly feel at home and to be able to have a cake and cuppa before unpacking.
Sue at East Ruston Cottages was brilliant to deal with throughout (not that we needed her whilst we were away but I'm sure if we had have she would have helped out without hesitation). The feeling we got was that Sue at East Ruston Cottages (and the cottage owners) go out of their way to make sure you have the most amazing holiday possible.
We will certainly be returning customers and will recommend to everyone we know

A lovely week in the lodge. Secure garden and everything you need for a dog friendly stay. Bowls towels dog shower. Nearby beaches and the weavers way. Everyone so friendly.
Carol, October 2019
Just had our 5th visit to Holmes House Pete and our 4 border collies enjoyed our week again. Lovely house and walks close by. Beach and sand dunes and some lovely meals out. Waiting for next year now.

We stayed at The Lodge for a week from 21 Sept to 28 Sept located in East Ruston. We had a fabulous week with lots of great dog friendly beaches nearby, parks to walk in and other walks all local.
The Lodge itself is great for dogs and has a fully enclosed garden but I would say one of the gates could be jumped over if you have an escape artist but ours never bothered. It's quiet with very little to bother us and our doggy. We felt a week wasn't long enough and wish we had booked longer. Lots of things to see and do with your four legged friends.

Our second visit to an East Ruston cottage. This time it was Heather Cottage right in the heart of Happisburgh. A 5 min walk to the beach and 1 min walk to the dog friendly Hill House which has great food and beer! The cottage is v dog friendly with an enclosed garden and hard flooring throughout ground floor. Doggies get free dog biscuits handmade locally and mine loved them! The beach walks are great when the tide is out you can access up to Bacton and down to Cart gap where there is a cafe , smallsticks, on the road out of cart gap. The owner leaves high tide times on board in cottage we are very useful. A visit up the church tower gives great views open sun pm until end of October and lighthouse in summer most weekends or possible private viewing if it can be arranged. Further afield there are many great walks and sites to see in this dog friendly locale .

We had a fantastic week at The Walnut - a beautiful converted barn with a hot tub. Brilliant service as always from Sue at ERC who always goes that extra mile, and from Stella and Paul, the lovely barn owners. The barn is in a great location and is really well appointed with lots of little extras which add to your stay and both dogs and humans have everything needed for a relaxing break. Our dog settled in straightaway and was more than happy to curl on the sofas whilst we enjoyed the (extremely well maintained) hot tub - which was a great way to relax after walking and cycling around the area. The peace of just sitting and looking at the fields and wildlife whilst in the hot tub or on the outdoor sofas was just perfect. We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary whilst there and were extremely touched by the personalised touches which Stella and Paul (and Sue) provided. Exceptional pub, The Star, with great food within walking distance. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we hope to return.
Danielle, August 2019
Fabulous cottage with super friendly and helpful owners. Everything you could ever possibly need for your dog is included - lots of beds, blankets, towels, bowls, treats, poo bags etc the list goes on. As well as the secure courtyard there is also a paddock where the dogs can have a run around and toilet. The cleaners must be fab as the place was spotless - not a dog hair in sight when we arrived . I can not recommend it highly enough our whippets loved it!
Anne Marie, August 2019
They offer amazing facilities and provide everything you need. Nothing is too much trouble.
Anne, August 2019
Another excellent East Ruston Cottages stay from 27th July to 3rd August - our second visit to Holmes House. We thoroughly enjoyed our week with plenty of countryside walks direct from cottage and beach walks within a few minutes drive. Holmes House has everything you need for a great week away and in a fabulously quiet setting.
We've been visiting beautiful Norfolk with our dogs since 2014 and have stayed with varying family members, or just the two of us, at I think 8 East Ruston Cottages on all 12 occasions - and have a further two visits booked for this year. I think this says it all for the quality and diversity of the cottages Sue manages, her enthusiasm and hard work, and of course that of all the owners. We can't wait for our next stay!

We are recently back from a short break at Corner Cottage in Lessingham. It’s our third stay with East Ruston, and this accommodation did not disappoint, in fact, it’s now been promoted to my favourite. Such a beautiful location with minimal traffic, and walking distance to the local pub, where dogs are welcome .
The accommodation was exceptionally clean and so well appointed. Three double bedrooms plus a single. For those of you who love to cook, the kitchen has everything that you might wish to use, and more!
We ate outside, even breakfast while we were there.
It was just fantastic and I can heartily recommend it, although please leave some space for me!
Sarah, May 2019
Our 2nd visit to the lovely comfortable Heather cottage. Ideally situated in the village with an easy walk to the beach and a stones throw from the pub.
Exceptionally dog friendly accommodation, East Ruston cottages are the best! Dog throws, towels, bowls, brushes provided plus some lovely homemade dog biscuits. Our dogs were made us welcome as us! Excellent.
We have already booked again for next year.
