“Lovely comfortable clean cottage.”

Owner very helpful. Generous welcome pack. Nice enclosed garden for the dogs. Short walk to the beach. Fantastic fish n chip shop a short walk away and the happy wok Chinese, very good food, just down the road, order online and it’s ready when you get there. This was our second visit and I’m sure we will be back.

Ian April 2024

“A great place to stay, great location & really well kitted out.”

The gate at the bottom of the stairs is a real bonus for dog owners. We normally bring our own. The only downside is you have no control over the heating & have to contact the owner if you want it adjusted...never had this before... touch bizarre..

- Ian, April 2024
Kevin April 2024

“We have stayed in many holiday cottages over the years (we are in our late 60s) and this was by far the best equipped home we have stayed in.”

The enclosed garden is ideal for dogs and the cottage really is just 2 minutes walk from a lovely beach with dunes and a pub in close proximity. The owners were extremely helpful in helping us to prepare for our stay and they provided a lovely welcome pack for us and our dogs. A lovely restful break.

- Kevin, April 2024

So glad you and the dogs had a great time ,makes my efforts worthwhile . Property Owner
Sally March 2024

“It’s our home from home for me and my sister, we are regular visitors, love the area, proximity to the beach for the dogs.”

Great hospitality from Jackie, we are back in September……

Thank you Sally ,looking forward to having you return . Property Owner
Mandy January 2024

“Lovely property, beautifully clean, comfortable and warm (we visited in January) with safe parking.”

Kind welcome pack including dog treats and the dog cleaning box is a very thoughtful idea. The kitchen has everything you need for your stay. The property is located 2 min walk from the lovely beach and dunes, it is well placed to drive to the more well known villages. Supermarkets close drive and small supermarket is a 15 min walk from the house.

- Mandy, January 2024
Susan October 2023

“This house had everything we needed including bathing items for the dogs!”

The little treats left for us when we arrived were lovely. The house was beautifully clean and had everything we could need for extra tidying etc. The garden was well fenced and big enough for dogs to ‘mooch’ about. Thank you very much for our very enjoyable stay. Sue

- Susan, October 2023
Sue October 2023

“We had a lovely week at the cottage, the property was clean, comfortable and well equipped.”

The enclosed garden was perfect for the dogs. The beach is a few minutes walk away as is the fish and chip shop which we can recommend. The chinese food from The Happy Wok was delicious. Supermarkets are a short drive away. Oulton Broad was worth a visit.

- Sue, October 2023
Keith September 2023

“Had a lovely week away at this lovely little cottage ideally situated for the dog friendly beach.”

Lovely touch to receive little treats for both the dogs and us Will definitely be returning again next year thank you. Keith and Ju

- Keith, September 2023

Thank you Keith Lovely to meet you again recently ! We look forward to seeing again. Property Owner
Shaun September 2023

“Well equipped and comfortable cottage with good outdoor terrace and secure garden for our dog.”

On arrival treats for adults and dog were provided, a lovely touch. Dog cleaning box a very good idea. The owners directions to the property were excellent straight to the parking allocation. Great location 2 min walk to the beach, 10 mins to the pub or chippy.

- Shaun, September 2023

Thank you for the positive feedback and sounds like you found everything that made your stay comfortable. Property Owner
Julia July 2023

“A beautiful property, exactly as advertised.”

A short walk from the beach, and well situated for some great days out. The property had everything that we needed and was extremely clean and well maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

- Julia, July 2023

Thank you for the great review . Property Owner
Stephen July 2023

“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 7 Coastal Cottages, really comfortable and quiet and exactly as described.”

Nicely laid out and decorated and well equipped, the owner has clearly put a lot of thought into it Parking is a bit tricky for larger cars but you soon get used to it

- Stephen, July 2023
Clive June 2023

“Great cottage in a perfect location.”

Garden ideal for the dog to run around. Everything you needed was available. Two minutes to the beach and five minutes to a pub. Also excellent fish and chip restaurant a couple of minutes away. Perfect spot for exploring the Suffolk coastline

- Clive, June 2023
Sarah June 2023

“The property was a delightful cottage which was in a great location and contained everything you would need for a comfortable stay here.”

It was a real home from home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone who wanted to stay here. And the welcome pack was a lovely surprise, our dog Ozzy enjoyed his dog treats very much.

- Sarah, June 2023
Susan June 2023

“The cottage was perfect for our needs, very comfortable, spotlessly clean and well equipped.”

Just a short walk to the beach too. We would recommend The Waterfront restaurant for delicious and very well priced food (probably best to book) and Covehithe, about 10 minutes drive, a hidden gem! Park by the old church, then a lovely footpath through barley fields and a nature reserve area to the beach (no facilities there). Kessingland is an easy drive to Southwold and Aldburgh, both worth a visit too.

- Susan, June 2023
Linda May 2023

“We had a great holiday in lovely cottage, well equipped and comfortable.”

Kessingland is nice village and close to some the lovely spots in Suffolk. Would certainly recommend.

- Linda, May 2023
Alison May 2023

“This is a very comfortable cottage by the sea with an enclosed garden which is good for dogs.”

I was very lucky with the weather so I was able to sit in the garden until late at night and you can hear the soothing sound of the waves crashing on the beach below. The cottage sleeps 4 so having it to myself was luxury! It is very clean and has everything you'd want. The owner had even left some treats for me and the dogs. I will be happy to stay here again and recommend it to others.

- Alison, May 2023
Leslie May 2023

“Lovely Holiday accommodation - quiet, and well stocked with everything you need - plus a lovely welcome pack.”

Jackie was very helpful, and just a text away if we needed help. Secure garden for the kids (yes I mean the dogs!), Although we did struggle with restrictions for the pups - basically only allowed in one area/room of the house (they are used to having the run of the place at home) I can understand the reasons but it would maybe stop us from booking again.

- Leslie, May 2023

Thank you for your honest feedback Leslie. We are pleased you found the accommodation to your liking. The situation you found yourself in with your pets may be a misunderstanding, we have tried to make the "downstairs only" arrangements clear and obvious within the on-line property information and these mirror Sykes standard Ts and Cs. Our aim was that by having hard floors downstairs and an effective pet gate at the bottom of the stairs, guest with pets would find the property easy to relax in. Property Owner
Sarah April 2023

“Great from beginning to end.”

Owner is lovely and communication is great. The sand dunes and beach are a couple of minutes walk away. The property is well kept and even has a gate on the bottom of the stairs which is great if you have a four legged friend! Will definitely return.

- Sarah, April 2023

Thank you Sarah glad to hear you made good use of the access to the beach, there is no doubt that its great to be able to walk your dog somewhere so dog friendly , without having to put him in the car first ! Would love to welcome you back Property Owner
Margaret March 2023

“The cottage was realy nice, it was warm and welcoming when we arrived in the snow, the heating worked well.”

The sofa and chair were very comfortable as were the beds. The kichen was well stocked with everything for cooking and plenty of crockery. The cottage has good off road parking and is a few minutes walk to the beach via the back door and to the road and sea front via the front door, its very conveniently placed. We has a very enjoyable holiday.

- Margaret, March 2023

“Very nice holiday cottage in a great location clean and well equipped would be happy to go back there again.”

- Neil, July 2022
Lesley June 2022

“This is a gem, it could not have been cleaner and is well equipped.”

Beach and quiet walks only 10 mins away. Lots of attention to detail eg the bedside lamp is not so bright that you fully wake up if you switch it on in the night. Directions to the parking spaces also very useful. Had a lovely relaxing stay, and hope to book again next year.

- Lesley, June 2022

Thank you Lesley for the positive feedback. Glad you found some relaxation, we would love to welcome you again next year. Jackie Property Owner
Roger June 2022

“Lovely cottage; immaculately clean.”

Very nice Welcome Pack was a lovely surprise and a good supply of "Essentials" was an added bonus

- Roger, June 2022
Jan May 2022

“The cottage was very comfortable, clean, well equipped and conveniently positioned in that we could walk to the local pubs, chip shop, restaurant ( The Waterfront.”

..recommended!)and beach. The chocolates and milk on arrival were a lovely touch. Kessingland is only a few minutes to Morrisons on the edge of Lowestoft and in the village there was a Spar and a Co Op. It would be ideal for people bringing dogs and Kessingland beach was good for dog walking. It's very close to Africa Alive which was a very pleasant day out, and Southwold was very nice. We visited Framlingham Castle and Sutton Hoo in around 45-50 minutes each

- Jan, May 2022
Wilma April 2022

“Lovely little cottage, my Golden Retrievers loved the garden.”

A real home from home, and the welcome treats for us and the dogs were amazing and very much appreciated after our longer than anticipated drive. The cottage itself is far closer to the beach than we expected ☺️, it was very clean and everything you’d need for your stay is here. The Beach hut (nearby shop) sells a plethora of things and I can’t recommend the Kebab & Pizza shop enough! The local residents are so very friendly we will definitely be back.

- Wilma, April 2022
Gail March 2022

“Perfect location for exploring the Suffolk coast with the beach just a few minutes away.”

We all enjoyed our holiday in a lovely comfortable dog friendly cottage with everything we needed for the week.with added treats on arrival

- Gail, March 2022
Ann March 2022

“We had a lovely week's holiday with our dogs in this great cottage.”

The cottage is very well equipped and very comfortable. Great location, only a few minutes' walk down a quiet lane to a dog-friendly beach. We enjoyed having a sunny patio and garden. Nice pubs, restaurants and fish and chips all within walking distance or a short drive.

- Ann, March 2022
Dave March 2022

“The property is perfectly set up for a holiday stay, it has everything you’d need.”

We have been to this village 6 times & would book to stay here again.

- Dave, March 2022
Lyn January 2022

- Lyn, January 2022
Catherine November 2021

“We had a very relaxing week in this delightful cottage which was extremely well equipped, well maintained, very clean, warm and cosy!”

Our dogs also had a great time at the extensive beach which is a stones throw away from the Cottage and it provided us all with some welcome bracing fresh air and exercise. We felt our stresses melt away in the peace and quiet of Kessingland and wished we could have stayed longer. Thanks to the owners for a great stay in their Cottage.

- Catherine, November 2021
Stuart November 2021

“We have just spent a lovely week at 7 Coastal Cottage.”

The location is perfect for the beach, just a couple of minutes walk. The Cottage is comfortable and well equipped. Jackie and her husband could not be more welcoming and helpful. Thank you for a great holiday.

A lovely property so close to the beach , could do with some sharp knives in the kitchen was difficult to slice anything when cooking The dogs loved the garden with dog friendly neighbours which is a bonus The chocolates and biscuits were a lovely surprise and treats for the dogs too ,many thanks

- Susan, November 2021
Stephanie October 2021

“A great Cottage to stay in.”

Beautifully decorated, clean and everything we needed. Close to the beach, not too much to do in Kessingland but our 11 year old and 13 year old loved the cottage, beach and local pub. Easy drive to get to surrounding places to visit. Communication with the host was great, and the lovely lady left us a welcome pack which was delightful! We have two dogs and everything was easy. The only thing that some people may wish to know is there is no upstairs toilet for little ones, or for those of us that get up in the night.

- Stephanie, October 2021
Sally October 2021

“My sister and I have stayed in this cottage before, we love it.”

The welcome pack, for the dogs as well is a lovely touch, it feels like a home from home and we relax as soon as we step in the door. Excellent proximity to the beach and it’s nice to have a garden to sit out in and also allow the dogs some space.

- Sally, October 2021
Martin October 2021

“The cottage was excellent.”

I think next time we'll stay a bit north or south, there was not a great deal to do unless you go some way in the car. See you again in the new year up the Glen Coe area. Thanks. Martin.

- Martin, October 2021
Rita September 2021

- Wendy, June 2021
Amanda June 2021

“The cottage is lovely.”

It contained everything you could possibly need for a holiday stay. We loved sitting in the garden having breakfast or an afternoon drink.

- Amanda, June 2021
Peter April 2021

“The cottage is perfectly situated and a great place for dog owners.”

Very cosy and comfortable accommodation. The owners have clearly spent a great deal of time in meeting the needs of the holiday-makers. One problem - the dogs had more biscuits in the welcome pack than I did!!!

- Peter, April 2021
Adrien April 2021

“Everything was just perfect.”

- Adrien, April 2021
Patrick September 2020

“We enjoyed an excellent stay at the superb cottage that has been furnished and decorated to a high standard.”

Everything we needed for our stay was provided at the cottage. A thoughtful touch was the message from Mrs Schofield, the owner to make sure everything at the cottage was to our liking and all was well. Allan and Lesley Walters and Gwen our black lab, Swansea.

Marie July 2020

“The cottage was quite comfortable and its position was great for the beach, pub and restaurant.”

Also a small local shop and cafe within a few minutes walk. The cottage was very clean and well equipped. Only one negative , there was no welcome pack, not even a pint of milk. We would have loved a cup of tea after a six hour drive to get to the cottage.

- Marie, July 2020

The welcome pack was a really nice surprise and the dogs loved their biscuits. We felt at home immediately, facilities are excellent access to WiFi was much appreciated, we took “Alexa” so enjoyed our pick of music...... really happy with our choice of accommodation, would recommend the property to anyone, particularly with dogs especially with the garden..

- Sally, March 2020
Penny January 2020

“A lovely cottage in a peaceful location, it has everything you need for a relaxing holiday, and the owners are super helpful.”

Susan November 2019

“This is a delightful cottage in an idyllic setting, fabulous beach a stone's throw away.”

Very peaceful, great pub with good food, very friendly reception from everyone. Lovely welcome pack at the cottage with owner texting to check that all is okay with us. This is our second visit and will be back next year. First stay in cold weather, cottage VERY cosy, would thoroughly recommend.

- Robert, October 2019
Penny September 2019

“This is a first class cottage for anyone wanting to visit the beautiful Suffolk coast with their dog.”

The cottage is very cosy, ample heating and hot water and very comfortable. Most unusually for a holiday let the wifi was excellent. The long secure garden was ideal for our dog to mooch in between outings and we all loved the dunes and beach just two minutes walk away. The patio was great to have morning coffee on, still catching the sun in late September/early October. You need look no further for a dog friendly holiday in this part of England, thoroughly recommended.

- Penny, September 2019
Chris August 2019

“What a gem of a cottage tucked away and yet in a central location.”

The cottage was Very clean, comfortable and a lovely set of extra gifts provided by the owners upon our arrival, thank you. Kessingland is very dog friendly and the beach is 2 mins away along a little used lane and path. The cottage has a nice long garden and the benefit of catching the morning sun, even at the start of September this allowed breakfast out on the patio. The neighbours were friendly and the owners could not have been more helpful. The beach is made up of sand, shingle and dunes and is very large and quiet. Our dogs loved it and were happy to return in the evenings and snooze away with doggie dreams. From warm summer mornings to cosy winter nights, this cottage really is a home from home and a credit to the owners for providing an inviting atmosphere. We would love to return.

- Chris, August 2019
Jonathan August 2019

“The cottage was ideal for us, very comfortable, well equipped and there were nice personal touches.”

- Angela, May 2019
Ann May 2019

“We were so delighted with the cottage and it's quiet location so close to the beach.”

The cottage exceeded our expectations - it was gorgeous, beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean and so comfortable. The enclosed garden was perfect for the dogs. The unexpected welcome treats (for humans and dogs) were a lovely touch. Kessingland is a friendly, quiet location with miles of empty beach and all the local residents we met were so friendly. We would definitely book again.

- Ann, May 2019

- Gary, September 2018
Hazel September 2018

“Another excellent cottage found via your website.”

Good communication for directions etc from owner, which was just as well as the cottage is sort of back to front i.e. Accessed from garden, with no apparent front door. Very pleasing nautical decor particularly the 2 bedrooms and comfy bed. The Kitchen had plenty of accessories including some basic condiments, even washing machine and dish washer tablets. Living area well laid out with pleasant suite, TV and DVD player and selection of books, if needed. Our dog was also very happy with the fenced garden and we were happy with the stair gate keeping her downstairs knowing she was not allowed upstairs saved us from nagging her all the time ! The location was also good for us, short walk away from garden gate to a brilliant beach of shingle and dunes which was dog friendly, our dog just ran and ran. There is a very friendly Pub off the beach with good basic pub food and dogs accepted inside plus choice of fish shops if you didn't want to travel far but the cottage is sited about half way between Southwold and Lowestoft, both good places to visit In all a good week's holiday - home from home and an extra touch was a welcome card. Chocolates, biscuits, bag of sweets and biscuits for our dog left for us - very thoughtful.
