Summary: My dogs and I had a lovely time at Farthing Cottage and the surrounding beaches. The cottage was so thoughtfully provided for multiple dogs and doggy owners in terms of bowls, crates, furniture throws, even ramps and gates. Pretty much any possible needed dog accessories were supplied. The dog and owner welcome packs were also amazing, including nearly a week's breakfast stocked in the fridge by the very generous owner Caroline! The cottage itself was clean, bright, and very secure with a small fenced-in back garden for dogs, a very well-stocked kitchen for cooking, upstairs and downstairs bathrooms, WIFI, and TVs in lounge and bedrooms. The location was excellent, being roughly only a 10 minute drive to dog-friendly Mundesley Beach and around a 20 minute drive to other nearby beaches. The only setback was having to be extra mindful of barking dogs with neighbours next door, but this is the situation with most residential areas and was easily overcome once dogs settled into such a lovely holiday cottage and were able to enjoy good daily exercise running free on the nearly empty beaches. I would also warn drivers to drive slowly on the small country lanes in the area and to watch out for hidden Give Way signs which are placed much above eye-level and often blocked by low-hanging trees, including two intersections very near the cottage. Satnav signals can also be lost in the general vicinity, so I was lucky to have been using three satnavs at once on my return journey, with WAZE seeming to have been best able to catch signals when the normal vehicle and Tomtom satnav signals became lost- otherwise I might still be driving around aimlessly trying to return home! Overall, however, a fantastic holiday during a week of beautiful weather. Thank you, Caroline and ERC, for such a dog-friendly holiday stay!

Summary: Fab cottage. Comfy, well equipped and nicely located. Proper pubs, with excellent food. Lovely beaches, woods and commons. We have used East Ruston Cottages for about 16 years and they are the bee's knees.

Summary: Lovely cottage to stay in to be able to visit the North Norfolk Coast. It was always warm and cosy when we returned from bracing walks on the beach. It is comfortable and well equipped for both humans and dogs with a very generous welcome basket for both. The garden is secure so had peace of mind letting our dog out to explore. Liked the holiday identity tag for the dog's collar..... great idea! My only niggles would be that the touch stay app didn't correspond to the information on the Web site and it took all day to get a reply from East Ruston Cottages. However the cottage owner is going to review the app and Sue from ERC had been at Crufts the weekend before. My other niggle would be that when we got to the cottage there was no crate in situ, as requested, and we had to locate it in the garage.... this probably felt more difficult as it was dark by the time we arrived. Already looking to see where we can go next!

Summary: Farthing cottage is in the quiet village of Trunch. The property wasn’t as clean as I would have expected from stays at previous ERC properties but on contacting the company this was quickly resolved. The property was very warm and comfortable and the perfect place for our week long stay. There was everything you could possibly need for you and equipment for your dogs stored in the attached garage, beds bowls, crates, buggies, ramps etc. There were loads of fabulous walks straight from the door and into the adjoining fields and countryside. It is ideally located for visiting the beach and numerous National Trust properties. Highly recommended

Garden offers a grassed area for the dogs and a large patio area fir the owners. Loads of beaches just a small drive away all accepting dogs. Highly recommend the craft bakery in Mundsley, beautiful bread and cream cakes.

Summary: We had a pleasant weekend break in Farthing Cottage over the first weekend in November, hoping for a rest from the constant fireworks that are a feature of our home life at this time of year. The cottage was lovely and warm - our foster greyhound was comfortable without his pajamas. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed some pleasant walks around the area. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and the welcome hamper was amazing. All in all, I would highly recommend the cottage to dog owners.
