Location & Directions
Cottage Details
When You Arrive
Pull into the open gravel driveway where there is plenty of room for three cars. Your holiday starts in the large entrance porch—an absolute lifesaver for dog owners! It’s the perfect "airlock" for depositing wet clothes, muddy boots, and umbrellas. It’s spacious enough to towel dry the whole pack at once, and we’ve left plenty of dog towels right there for your convenience. The floors here (and throughout the hallway and kitchen) are beautifully tiled, so you don't need to worry about a few damp paw prints while you get settled.
Downstairs Cloakroom
Conveniently located just off the hallway, this modern cloakroom features a toilet, sink, and a fitted heated towel rail—perfect for keeping those dog towels warm and dry!
The Kitchen
This is a stylish and incredibly practical space that overlooks the garden. The owners have finished it to a high standard with granite worktops and a classic butler sink. It’s fully equipped for a "foodie" holiday with a double oven, electric hob, dishwasher, and an integral fridge-freezer. There’s also a washing machine/tumble dryer hidden away. The breakfast bar for two is a lovely spot for a morning coffee while you watch the dogs explore the garden through the window.
Dining & Living Room
This large, open-plan space is designed for social family time. The dining area features a large table that easily seats six for long, lazy holiday meals. The living area is all about comfort—there is plenty of seating (and we provide the noodle mats so your dogs can join you on the sofa!). Whether you’re snuggling up in front of the huge 65-inch Smart TV for a Netflix marathon or opening the patio doors to let the summer breeze in, this room is the ultimate "chill-out" zone.
Upstairs Bedrooms & Bathroom
The wide, gentle staircase (fitted with a stairgate at the bottom for safety) leads to three beautifully furnished bedrooms:
Master Bedroom: A luxurious King-size bed with lovely views over the quiet village street and surrounding fields.
Second Bedroom: A bright double room that looks directly over the secure rear garden—perfect for a "sneak peek" at what the dogs are up to in the morning!
Third Bedroom: Another comfortable double with fitted storage and peaceful countryside views.
The Bathroom: A newly fitted, crisp modern bathroom with a bath (and shower over), a vanity unit for your bits and bobs, and a soft-close toilet.
The Garden (The "Pack" Favourite) The garden at Treetops is a total sanctuary. It is very secure, with 6ft solid fencing all the way around, so you can truly relax while the dogs roam. Directly outside the back doors is a lovely patio area for alfresco dining. Our favourite feature? The warm water outdoor tap and hose! No more struggling with freezing buckets—you can give your dogs a luxurious warm rinse-off after a trip to the beach or a walk on the Weavers Way.
What we provide for your Pack
The "Warm Wash" Station: Outdoor warm water tap and hose.
The Essentials: Dog towels, bowls, spare leads, poo bags, and holiday tags.
Home Comforts: Furniture throws and a fixed stairgate at the bottom of the stairs.
Dog Policy: Dogs are allowed on human beds by prior arrangement—please just bring your own bedding so they have their familiar smells!

David and Sheila –
After having 4 months solid decanting a 100 year old Victorian house, we passed the ownership to a wonderful couple who had the energy to look after a three storey house, 5 bedrooms and a large garden
Last minute we decided to visit Norfolk and relive our special times 6 years ago. The house was the icing on the cake and gave us, from a central location, to visit those areas we love
Thank you for sharing your beautiful house and giving us the opportunity to relive the past happy times
Tracy –
Thanks for a great Pack Holiday. A well equipped home from home
All four legged family and their hoomans have had a chilled out time
We will be back Im sure
Ros, Jo, Pixie, Pickle and Ziggy –
Thank you for allowing us to stay (again) in this lovely cottage. It was warm and so comfortable Thanks also for the welcome pack, the two of us and our 3 dogs has such a great time visiting the beaches and the woods, plus a walk from the cottage. We love it here!! Thanks very much
We used the Walcott Secure field most mornings so that our 3 could run off a bit of energy before we hit Bacton Woods, the beach at Bacton and Hemsby beach all brilliant. We did a walk from the cottage to get our steps in!!
All in all, a superb few days in a super cottage The welcome pack was really appreciated arriving as we did late on Sunday afternoon. A brilliant time thank you Gail xx
PS we managed a lunch at the Dunes Cafe which was superb
The Evans family including Boo and Essie xx –
Another fab Pack Holiday. Thank you Gail. Brilliant service as always, Gail full of the flu, helping out with mats for our old boy Boo, who struggled with the floors.
He and Essie had a great week. Lots of beach and paddling, lovely long Bacton Wood walks, and fantastic local walks to the church and circular walks taking Weavers Way
Saw lots of great wildlife as always, including coming home to a deer in the garden on our last night. Great way to end the week.
So lucky with the warm, dry weather. Just love Norfolk in November! Dont want to go home.
Janet –
What a fantastic house! We wanted for nothing in our fortnight here. Great for the dogs and very comfortable for us.
The welcome pack was much appreciated after our 7 hour drive! Our dog Hugo was very impressed with the Hugo and Co treats!
We loved Weavers Way on the doorstep and walked for miles. We also really liked Bacton Woods and Bacton beach. Wonderful Indian takeaway from Just Eat (a novelty for us, we don’t get that in our village in North Northumberland) Al-Haqq. You will likely need to go to the end of the drive as the house is hard to spot!
North Walsham was great for local shopping and a trip to Wroxham / Hoveton both for boat trips and shopping in the many ‘Roys’ stores was nice
Wroxham Barns for a bit of retail therapy and a nice cafe is worth the trip
All in all we had a comfortable stay in a nice part of the world. Whats not to like?
Thanks to Gail for recommending a garage for my car emergency. To the owners of this beautiful house, and Sue for keeping it spotless, in awe of the clean white floors on arrival
Diane –
Home from home sums it up! What an amazing cottage. Never stayed in a cottage that is so well stocked!

Treetops Part 2
We came back for two weeks this year and it was lovely!
We had enough time to explore some more of wonderful Norfolk.
Our dogs were happy and ew could not be happier as well
The long walks just outside Treetops, the wonderful and magic beaches and such a clean, well equipped cottage make this place a second home to us
We are looking forward to coming back!
Kerry, Simon Stella and Nana Pope and Murphy, Bertie, Pepper and Monty –
We couldn’t have asked for a better week – a fantastic stay at Treetops and wonderful weather
As city dwellers, it was nice to stay in the midst of the countryside.
Treetops is a wonderful house with everything you need for a great stay – you have thought of everything and the welcome basket was much appreciated.
We really enjoyed a half day on a boat from Wroxham and took our 4 terriers on board, who loved it! One of our favourite places was Mundesley with a great dog friendly beach and a quaint air about it
Alby Crafts was a little gem of a place with some fantastic gift shopping and a wonderful vafe with fab coffee and cheese scones.
The dogs enjoyed their holiday too, pottering on the beaches at Cart Gap, Mundesley and Sea Palling with night time ambles on Weavers Way. Thank you
David, Claire, Oliver and Renn –
As always a wonderful holiday with Treetops being our comfortable base, we’ve stayed here 7 times now and even though we say we will go somewhere else, its like a home from home and so easy to get to wherever we want to get to, beach, wonderful walks, National Trust properties and also Norwich.. Not with our dog though, he stayed here with me and had lovely walks on Weavers Way ad a play in the secure garden
Thank you to all involved in keeping Treetops our favourite! Stephen and Claire, for sharing this house, and to Gail and her team for always being amazing!
We will be back again
Wendy ,John ,Missy the Greyhound –
Treetops is all we wished for, quiet,well equipped and lovely walks from the front door.We loved it so much we have already booked 3 weeks next year.

Dennis and the hoomans –
Dennis, beautiful cocker spaniel back again! We love it here. The weather has been very kind and we’ve loved our beach trips and walks. We have seen alot of wildlife – a seal came up to say hello, a big stag, greeted me on Weavers Way, great bird watching and fox and rabbit and hare spotting
The house is lovely, so easy to live in and very relaxing. Thank you for the excellent welcome basket, a great taste of Norfolk and the warm tap is such a bonus, Im sweet and fluffy
Like nearly everyone in this book, we will be back!
Sue Jones –
What an amazing cottage we had a lovely week with two young children and 4 dogs. Everything that you could need is available and lovely comfortable beds at the end of the day. Ideal for us it is a lovely quiet area with some brilliant walks and scenery and a good chance to see the wildlife but also only about 10 mins in the car to Walcott and the beach which the children and the dogs loved and about 20mins to Sea Palling another favourite of ours. Would also recommend the dog field at Walcott which can be booked online, ideal for our pups to burn off some energy safely, and then a visit to the pub just across the road for lunch a really dog friendly place and very good food. We are looking forward to booking another holiday at Treetops. We have booked holidays with Packs for years and this is now one of our favourite cottages. Also a big thank you to Gail and the team for arranging the safe delivery of a Birthday cake and afternoon teas.
Sue, Kevin, Gemma, Luca and Mason and dogs –
We have stayed at a number of Pack Holidays properties but Treetops has made it to one of our top ones. The weather has been good and the kids have loved the walks and the nearby beaches, we also had a lovely meal in the Lighthouse Pub in Walcott.
Gail and the team are brilliant, thank you so much for delivering the afternoon teas and the birthday cake for our arrival, it was lovely. We spent alot of time at Walcott and Sea Palling with the little ones and the dogs just enjoying the sea and weather
Will look to visit Treetops again very soon
Thank you also to the lovely owners and once again, Gail and her team
Jane and Paul –
Thank you for allowing us to stay in your wonderful cottage. We’ve had a great 2 weeks, the weather has been fantastic. The dogs loved the beaches, Cart Gap being a firm favourite. Visited Blicking Estate again, as we really enjou the walks around there and finishing off with a pub meal at teh Bucks Arms. You cant go wrong
It was great having Weavers Way on our doorstep again, enjoyed the local walks
A big thank you to Gail and her team, housekeeping was spotless and the lovely welcome pack was much appreciated.
Hope to return in the future. Many thanks
Bev and Paul. Maisie, Lottie, Dolly and Saffie –
Thank you for a great holiday at Treetops. This is a superb cottage where everything has been thought of.. You can just relax and enjoy. Best wishes to the owner, Gail and everyone at Pack Holidays for making our holiday special. Our second visit to Treetops, better than we remembered! Sometimes places are not as good as you remember. NOT Treetops. We had a great time, just relaxing in this wonderful cottage
We cannot wait to return!! Thank you for the delicious welcome pack
Helen, Rich, Thomas, Ben and Bracken –
We had a fantastic stay at Treetops. What a lovely smart house – had everything we needed. The dog wash was very useful. Weather was amazing for the time of year. We hadn’t stayed in this part of Norfolk before It was very peaceful but we still managed to get to the 2p machines! We were very fortunate to see the seals at Horsey – apparently they will be there for another couple of weeks.
Bacton Woods are great for dog walks and the beach at Bacton was our evening favourite.
Many thanks
Joe, Rachael, Tully and Jude –
Thank you for another fantastic week at Treetops (our 2nd time). The weather has been amazing and we all had a wonderful time- Top tips from an insider – eating at ‘Sundown’ at the Grove, just outside Cromer. Wonderful tapas and pizza! Cart Gap beach was great as always for walks with the dogs – as was Bacton Woods and Piggery Woods.
Nearby butchers ‘Tavern Tasty Meats’ is very good
Hopefuly see you next year!
Pawtastic!
Jule, Pete, Barbara, Pete, Yvonne and the pooches, Bella, Darla, Dixie, Dolly and Darcey –
Thank you for the use of the wonderful cottage, we have had glorious weather
Visited many beaches, my favourite being Cart Gap
The dogs have had a great time and have loved the very secure garden
The warm hose out the back has been a godsend with my mud pig Bella
We hope to come back soon
Trudi, Jodi, Jenna, Sophia, Evelyn and the doggies –
Thank you for a wonderful week away. There was 5 of us staying plus dogs and we were all accommodated perfectly. We had a lovely day out to see the seals, it was really good. The house is in a really nice location with wonderful walks for the dogs in every corner.
PS we loved your Christmas tree
Laura and Dave and Tilly, Henry and Dudley –
Thank you Gail, you always make it easy! Blicking Estate we recommend, Felbrigg for lovely walking. Also tried Happisburgh dog park that was so enjoyed as our dogs are so reactive. Book online £10 for 50 mins, well worth it.
Our first visit staying at Treetops and what a beautiful cottage WOW! Thank you Stephen and Clare – we have loved being here, we dont want to leave now
Been to all the beaches and its so peaceful here
The warm water tap is a great addition and used lots this week as we have struggled with wet muddy weather
Thank you so much for our lovely welcome pack, so lovely
Bing thanks to your cleaner who made it so nice to arrive to! And of course Gail for making it so easy! Will be back again!
Lynsey, Jess and Harper –
Thank you for a wonderful stay at Treetops and for the excellent welcome pack which was a lovely touch
The house is beautiful, so clean and had everything we could want.
A real home from home
Our dog, Harper, was very settled here as we were. We didnt hear any fireworks eitherwhich was bliss
We recommend- Oasis and Broadlands in Stalham for takeaways, Martham Paw Ground and Walcott Dog Park, Both are great for reactive dogs. We would definitely love to return here one day. Thank you
Debbie, Terry & Stanley (dog) –
What a beautiful house! so clean well equipped.
We’ve had a wonderful week & friends of ours stayed at another Pack Holidays cottage just a 10 minute walk away
The weather was good to us and we visited many places but not enough time to do everything we wanted to. So, we
have booked to come back next year
Sophie and Thierry, Elmo, Miles, Tika, Tifi and Pino –
Thank you Clare and Stephen for offering this wonderful property
Thank you Gail and Pack Holidays for this perfect service, easy booking and friendly contact. We will be back as soon as we can
We enjoyed long walks, had a wonderful afternoon tea at the RoofTop Gardens in Norwich and loved Bacton Beach and Cafe Carmel. The East Ruston Vicarage Gardens were marvellous Our dogs felt perfectly at home and so did we Thank you
Lynn, Phoebe, Finn, Reuben, Olaf and Pearl woof woof –
Wow! Is what we all said when we walked through the door. Very comfy, very well-equipped and beautifully decorated. Great area for dog walking, Harriet helped with that – do give her a call if you fancy a lazy day 07790 317095
Lovely welcome basket
Well done to the Pack Holidays team, Clare and Stephen for offering this truly dog friendly property
Christine Clark –
If you want a quiet, idyllic village location with an nostaglgic feel of a rural bygone age but within a 15 minute drive to dog-friendly beaches and with many dog walks on the doorstep, this is the one for you. We were bowled over by the beautiful house- so spacious and clean and comfortable. The sofas were comfortable and had dog throws – but we brought extra ones of our own too as we always do. The TV was enormous! The kitchen and bathrooms recently fitted and modern and spotless. And we had a restful night’s sleep on a luxurious mattress. Honestly such a clean and most comfortable house and so well-equipped that we would give it 6 stars if that were possible! We had a mainly dry week and so enjoyed the area. Despite living in a St Mary’s Mead village ( allusion there to Agatha Christie and Miss Marple) you have a choice of supermarkets and other shops and cafes and places to eat nearby. Best of both worlds. And the church with its Wildflower Conservation Churchyard is an absolute delight. Treetops is well-placed for many attractions without having to travel too far. Beaches, boatrides, gardens, historic houses, The Broads, Country Parks, Heritage Railway – so much more to do than we thought. And a grand choice of Dog Fields for our Daxie Pack. Loved it! It’s on our short but exclusive list of Places We Will Return To In the UK! Thank you so much for the letting us stay there. Chris, Lloyd and the Daxie Pack Zak, Amber, Alys and Ruthie
Pete, Jody, Billy ,Rose and Olon the hounds –
We have had a great week staying at Treetops. We did lots of different things and didnt have to travel too far. Regrettably the weather got the better of us by Friday and despite this had some cracking sunsets
East Ruston Gardens, Norfolk Motorcycle Museum, Felbrigg Hall, Walcott Dog Park (twice) Mundesley etc
Shirley, Ann and Di –
Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage. The doggies loved it too!
Well equipped and comfortable
Bev, Paul, Maisie, Lottie, Dolly and Saffie –
We stayed for 2 weeks. We want to stay forever. The perfect place to unwind with lots of walks on the doorstep[. This cottage is a credit to everyone from the owners, to the cleaners, to Pack Holidays.
Sad to be going home but happy that we have found this fantastic cottage. Back as soon as we can! Thanks
PS thank you for the lovely welcome pack and treats for the doggies which they enjoyed
Claire, David, Paddy and Renn –
5th time at Treetops, it’s like coming home as so comfortable and quiet, we came back as Honing is the ideal place for us to use as a base so close to the beach walks and easy to get to our favourite places to visit and walk the dogs – Blakeney, Felbrigg House -always a great place to walk the dogs – so many different ways to go especially if its muddy.
Weavers Way is so close and we’re always finding new walks to follow that way
Lovely fresh veg and bread from AG Meale and Sons and enjoyed lunch at Veras Coffee shop whilst we were there, would recommend
Its lovely to come to a place which is ideal for us and our dogs, always look forward to coming back to this lovely house which is always spotless and kept in amazing condition by Stephen and gang.
Jenny, Andy, Jasper and Obi –
What a beautiful house Lovely garden just right for our nervous bouncy boy.
The dog shower was a treat after muddy field walks and sandy beach fun
We had a great roast takeaway from The Butchers Arms but the next day walk to return to the pub turned into an off road adventure thanks to the bridge out
We look forward to visiting again
Check out @obi_lab_kanobi for our holiday fun
Dennis and my holiday facilitators –
Dennis the cocker spaniel here!
What a holiday! First visit to Norfolk and we LOVE it! I’ve had the best days of my life running on long, long beaches – sun on my back, wind in my ears.
I love the village, it is so peaceful and I’ve had great walks in the countryside. The house and garden is just perfect for me and my ‘hoomans’. Very well equipped and so comfortable.
Everything has been considered – the warm tap outside is a real bonus
Thank you for a wuffly holiday. We will come back.
Caz, Sachin and Maisie –
Thank you for a wonderful stay in your beautiful, thoughtfully designed home. It was truly a pleasure to cook in such a well provisioned kitchen and collapse into such comfortable beds after windswept dog walks on the beaches
We enjoyed Bacton, Winterton and Cart Gap. And so did our rescue, Maisie. She really appreciated the tranquility of the surroundings and having a garden to roam around in. We may be back…….
Ros and Jo and Pickle and Pixie –
Excellent home to visit the fantastic beaches and woods in the area. Lovely house with everything in it that you need for the dogs and owners. Plus the super welcome basket. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, thank you to Gail and the owners.
Sue and Mike –
We have had such a lovely stay at Treetops. The house is so comfy and well equipped
Beds are so cosy
We appreciated the extra dog beds and towels and the doggy hose came in handy for sure!
Stephen also went to get us a cafetiere which we very much appreciated
Our dogs have loved it here, they have enjoyed walking along Weavers Way each morning – you may see a deer or two and a cyclist but it is very quiet.
Our favourite beaches are Waxham, Cart Gap and Bacton – all very quiet plus lovely barn cafe at Waxham and cafe at Cart Gap. Also recommend Veras Farm Shop for lunch, Wayford Bridge for dinner plus a visit to Felbrigg Hall
Thank you for the welcome pack much appreciated.
Hope to be back next year
The Richardsons and Tate –
Treetops is a brilliant holiday home in a great location to explore Norfolk. We have had a great week filled with lots of walks and laughs! The welcome basket was much appreciated along with getting us a bigger crate for Tate!
Lots of lovely walks around for us as well.
Thank you all, with love
Angela Shepherd –
Hann/Gooch Family & dogs 17 June to 1July 2023
We had a lovely two weeks at Treetops. The cottage was really comfortable and very well equipped.
We would like to thank the owner for the lovely welcome basket, very much appreciated.
The cottage was ideally situated to visit the Broads and other places of interest. Even though the cottage was situated in a village, it was so quiet and peaceful. The dogs enjoyed the secure garden too.
As usual, Gail and Pack Holidays were a pleasure to deal with and always so considerate to your needs.
The Wilsons / Foremans and ‘Scooby Dog’ –
Our first time staying at Treetops and what a lovely, homely property.
Tastefully furnished (loved the colours) and well equipped. Secure garden and doggy extras were very appreciated as well as the great welcome basket of goodies on our arrival. The biscuits were so delicious. Scooby dog couldnt resist his treats too.
Found Norfolk to be very dog friendly, from cafes, beaches, shops, boat trips, train rides. Will definitely visit again.
A big thank you from all of us
Les, Sue, Nibby and Jasper –
What a fantastic property – excellent!!! Brilliant walks, although mudddy, but the warm dog water tap was perfect.
This is a FIRST CLASS property, well equipped and warm. Thank you for the welcome basket. Perfect location to explore Norfolk. Thank you so much
Jane –
A lovely relatively few days in a rural setting. So quiet and peaceful. Good location for getting out and about and exploring. We went to Cart Gap beach and walked along to Happisburgh. Bacton Woods, Winterton dunes walk and then dinner at the Fishermans. Lovely walk from Sea Palling to Waxham Barns for breakfast. Also had dinner at Cross Keys and Lighthouse Inn. Excellent takeaway from Oasis 2 at Stalham. We loved the Weavers Way / Honing Lock circular walk beautiful 2 hour walk with so much wildlife but unfortunately on both occassions our dogs developed reactions to the nettles but gave them Piritol. Very comfortable home with everything you would need.
Elizabeth –
We had a great Easter Weekend at Treetops. Peaceful and quiet location and a lovely, modern cottage with a great kitchen. We enjoyed beach trips in the morning (Happisburgh, Winterton and Sea Palling) and walks
straight from the front door along Weaver’s Way in the evening with some chilling in the garden in between.
It’s a great base to explore the area, we only had three days and were spoilt for choice.
Sara, Tony and Ryan with lurchers Nahla and Joseph –
We’ve had an amazing week here at Treetops. First class accommodation, super comfy beds, and absolutely everything we needed. Steve and Gail couldnt have been more helpful when we had an issue with the dog shower hose leaking at the tap. We holiday in this area with our lurchers every year, but I dont think we’ve ever had such wonderful walks right on our doorstep. (Our two are well and truly exhausted). We had a lovely lunch in the Red Lion in Cromer, and also visited The Dunes Cafe in Waxham Barns a few times. Thank you for providing such a cosy, comfortable base to explore this beautiful area. And also for the welcome basket of goodies – something in there for everyone!
Sheryl, Craig, Maz and Ceris and Gracey and Charlie Woof! –
We just loved the house. Very well equipped kitchen. Thank you for the goody basket. We wished we had booked for a little longer! We have stayed in alot of dog friendly houses in Norfolk and this one we will recommend to our doggy friends
The Black Family & Whippets –
Wonderful, modern Treetops is a beautiful cottage with top-spec interior! We especially loved the kitchen with double oven that twinned as grill and microwave. It has a great dog safe garden with secure gate.
Spacious home, fabulously comfy beds, cosy sofas and great family dining table.
Stephen, the owner is close by and very friendly with local recommendations and advice.
We enjoyed yummy cakes at Veras coffee shop, near Stalham, 10 minute drive away, really scrumptious fish and chips at The Ship Inn, Mundesley, very dog friendly pub with large outdoor garden area, but book well ahead, Spent at Wells-Next-The-Sea, glorious beach, dog friendly and very popular.
Had a wonderful stay and highly recommend it to all. Appreciated the lovely welcome hamper, many thanks!
The Yardley Family –
Lovely house and tranquil location, dogs happy. Bacton beach is great for dogs with pay and display car park next to the gas terminal which is better for dogs as the beach is quicker. Hill House pub in Happisburgh is good for lunch. Recruiting Sergeant pub is good for dinner. Sea Palling and Mundesley are good for swimming. Thank you
Diane, Liley, Elsa & Bobby –
Thank you for the glueten free welcome basket which was very much appreciated!
We had a lovely week. There are great walks from the cottage and lovely dog friendly beaches near by.
Thank you!

We had a lovely stay, despite the weather not being great. The Weaver’s Way is great for walking the dog (drier if go right towards Honing Station, which is also interesting). We did do the canal circular walk which is a lovely walk, but very wet!
Our recommendations?
Doggie Diner at Cromer – Barney had an afternoon tea to celebrate his 3rd birthday! Its small so worth booking (on website)
Beach at West Runton. Very small part is dog free walk right behond the crowds and it’s great for a paddle and chasing a ball.
We also enjoyed an evening walk at Mundesely Beach.
Bacton Woods – good for a walk (1 hour max), Way markers are a bit hit and miss but difficult to get totally lost, it’s not huge.
We enjoyed North Norfolk Railway Dogs are allowed
Also Merrivale Model Village in Great Yarmouth.
We ate at the Ship Inn, Mundesley. Large garden, dogs welcome in front bar too.
Also Camelia Cottage in Sheringham did lovely food and dogs welcome in garden.
Loved the house, very comfy, well stocked kitchen and perfect garden for keeping the Collie happy.

We’ve had a wonderful holiday this week, and wanted to let you know that Treetops is a fantastic property, probably the best cottage we have stayed in in Norfolk!
Cart Gap is a great beach, nice and quiet and plenty of space for the dogs to run about. Walking along the beach to the Lighthouse at Happisburgh and back again is a lovely way to spend the afternoon.
Holt is always worth visiting, with lots of small coffee shops and slightly further on is Blakeney. There is a really good walk alongside the seat to Cley.
The weather was so good this week, we enjoyed relaxing in the garden every morning.
This is such a wonderful cottage to stay. We’ll definitely be booking here again!!

Treetops is a wonderful property to stay in. Our two dogs loved it too. There are plenty of circular walks from the property which were perfect as the panic buying for fuel was at fever pitch during our stay!!
All the beaches we visited were lovely a nd most places were dog friendly.
I’ve not been to Norfolk since the 1980’s. We were not disappointed.
A great week away. Thank you

Another lovely cottage – loved staying here – ultra relaxing, loved all the walks included in the cottage book – so many lovely ones.
Treetops is beautifully deocrated and very comfortable beds and furniture.
Will be back!!
Sarah, Adam, Sebastian and Flash (our collie) –
Perfect village for a weeks break. We enjoyued sitting in the quiet, secure garden and evening walks on local footpaths.
The house was comfortable and easy to relax in and keep clean from our dogs. We appreciated the doggie extra’s, as did they. Thank you.
In regards to the local area we did not need to venture far and it was very easy for a first holiday with our ‘teenage’ pup.
We enjoyed the beaches at Sea Palling, Bacton and Happisburgh (great play area too for our 8 year old). Horsey Gap was a great place to enjoy the seals from afar (they were on the beach).
We hired a bota from Simpson’s at Stalham, a lovely way to spend the afternoon, and also spent an afternoon on the narrow guage railway at Wroxham with lunch at the end of the line in Aylsham, fully recommend The Old Tea Rooms for a relaxing snack & cake!
A lovely family relaxing break, in a lovely house.
Thank you very much.

Treetops is a beautifully appointed house with all you could need day to day living provided. The garden is wonderfully secure for the dogs and offers a good degree of seclusion.
Coming as we do from an area where much can be put in the recycling bin, it would be handy to have a list of can/cannots as I know not all of the country takes all of the waste (plastics & foil, for example)
Recommend a sunday roast from the Butcher’s Arms, pre-order and collect but great value at £8 pp for two courses.
Loved walking on the weavers way. Great “pub grub” at the Cross Keys.
All in all, a fantastica, relaxing, comfortable week.
Dee & Pack! –
Loved staying here – so peaceful. Cottage was perfect, comfy beds, beautifully decorated and so many great walks from the door.
Garden was perfect for the dogs – just great for us.
Will be back 😀
The Kennetts & Kellys –
A lovely cottage great location, plenty of walking. Lovely day on the broads for a day. Great weather as well.
Went to see the seals (Horsey beach) well worth a visit.
Cross Keys pub is closed for food on a Monday night.
The Newells –
We loved the quality bedding, towels and everything in the house. The garden was perfect for our tiny dogs and our spaniel. Two minutes’ walk to Weavers’s Way was the icing on the cake. A walk that wasn’t muddy even after the rain was great.
We highly recommend Treetops and Honing to anyone with reactive dogs. Our barky chihuahua only baked occasionally, the quiet was bliss.
Thank you
The Black Family –
Wonderful modern Treetops is a beautiful cottage with top spec interior. Spacious home, fabulously comfy beds, cosy sofas and great family dining table. Recommend cake at Vera’s Coffee Shop, fish and chips at The Ship Inn at Mundesley and a beautiful day at the beach at Wells Next The Sea
Had a wonderful stay and highly recommend to all. Appreciated the welcome hamper.
Many thanks

We had a wonderful stay at treetops the house is immaculate and beautiful and a short drive away from the main beaches with other walks on the doorstep. It’s pupping season at the moment so Horsey Beach was closed but you could watch the mother seals and babies via the viewing points marked out.
The garden is a nice size and fully enclosed sufficiently enough for our 2 escapologist Chihuahuas.
Everything you could possibly need is provided and everything was cleaned and laundered down to the cushion covers in the lounge and during these covid times it makes everything seem even safer.
A basket was left out for us with fresh bread, jams and delicious biscuits along with milk in the fridge.
One of our party of 2 had an accident on the day before going home and we were given extra time to clear out of the house which was much appreciated.
Gail is extremely helpful and if you ask her for any particular requirements, she will absolutely do her best to make sure they are provided.
Big up to Pack Holidays.

We are so sad to be going home! We have loved staying in this cottage, the location is perfect and so quiet! We have enjoyed our daily walks with our dogs on Weaver’s Way, it’s great for reactive dogs as we never saw any other dogs on our walks and if we did, plenty of opportunity to take a different path to avoide them.
We visited Mundesley and Cromer (Doggie Diner @ Cromer is fab!) We ate at Crosskeys which was lovely and staff super friendly. We also ate at The Ship Inn, Mundesley, food was nice but can only eat with dogs in the bar are which was really crammed!!
Treetops is super clean, comfy and cosy, love the decor and fully appreciated our welcome goodies.
Thank you X

Thank you for a fabulous stay at Treetops. The high spec cottage was cosy and clean, well equipped kitchen and comfy beds! Dog towels were much appreciated as was the welcome basket and hand soap! We ate at Vera’s (the afternoon tea was amazing), The Star at Lessingham (huge portions and friendly staff) and the Cross Keys (again generous portions and lovely staff). Local walks are great and we even spotted deer a few times! We love Norfolk and again Pack Holidays did not disappoint!
Thank You!

We’ve had a great week at Treetops. It’s a beautiful cottage and is so peaceful and quiet.
Really appreciated the info on the walls in the local area. There are plenty to choose from.
Can recommend the tea room at the Corner House in West Runton for great food and a warm welcome.
We will definitely be back
Ash, Mark and Kids 🙂 –
Thank you for a lovely week at Treetops… it really has felt like a home away from home. The house was so comfy and you thought of all the little extras that make a difference to us and the dog!
The house has been a great base to explore the sights of Norfolk. We have enjoyed the many beaches, hot doughnuts at sea palling, the seals at Horsey ahd the Doggie Diner at Cromer
We will be back
Love

What can we say about this wonderful holiday home? Just fabulous in every way, the decor is outstanding, well done to Steve and Claire for all their hard work in achieving such a high standard. We had the pleasure of meeting Steve on our arrival and he made us feel very welcome. We did have some fun trying to work out how the ovens worked but we got there in the end. The garden was perfectly safe for the dogs and we appreciated the dog shower as it was used quite a number of times. We visited Cart Gap, Bacton and Holkham, the beach at Bacton was fantastic for the dogs. The weather was more than kind to us in fact a couple of days it was far too hot for our dogs, both being hairy and black. All in all, a very chiled holiday. Thank you Steve, Claire and Gail at Pack Holidays for making it possible

Absolutely wonderful week at Treetops, second time for us, so comfortable and has everything we could ever need. the weather was great too (one day relaxing here out of the rain is not a problem!) Garden is fantastic for the dogs, we know they’re safe and secure whilst we are in the house. Such a convenient location for us to get to lots of our favourite places Felbrigg Hall, Cart Gap beach, Weavers Way walks, also Alby Crafts where we had a lovely lunch and a good nosey around Cant wait to come back in September to Treetops. Thank you!
Claire, David, Renn, Paddy and Ted –
Third time at Treetops, just as lovely as ever. A great pace to stay and use as our base. Weather held out until Thursday but we managed lots of lovely walks and visits to Felbrigg, Holkham and Happisburgh to Cart Gap beaches and lovely walks along Weavers Way. Thank you to everyone who looks after Treetops, beautifully clean and to Gail for making booking so easy. Another Pack Holiday over but already booked another for next year, decisions to make for more bookings!

Recommend cake at Veras coffee shop, fish and chips at The Ship Inn, Mundesley and a beautiful day at the beach at Wells-Next-The-Sea. Had a wonderful stay and highly recommend it to all.
