On arrival at the house the first positive was the porch area. This was great for unloading and keeping our dog safe during our stay. The house has been excellently modernised and furnished and well stocked in the kitchen area. Everywhere was warm and welcoming with a great bonus in the lounge of a gas burner which threw out lovely heat whilst producing flames to mesmerise our spaniel. The garden is ideal for those with dogs and would be ideal for a fish n chip supper in the summer. The harbour and shops area was literally 100 yards away so a great spot for peace and quiet but close to the action although not in January as most hospitality seemed to be having an extended break. The bed was firm and the shower high specification.

The house is ideally situated in the heart of Wells-Next-The Sea with parking which is ideal. The house has been lovingly decorated/refurbished and has all you will need for a weekend away on the Norfolk coast. A home from home.

Lovely well appointed house. Tastefully furnished and decorated. Excellent location just up from the quay. Would have preferred a king size bed as husband and I struggled in a double, in the end we slept in separate beds. From a Norfolk Hideaways point of view I do think you should put on the cottage description that dogs are not allowed upstairs and on furniture when booking. You should not have to find out this info when you get there. Thankfully not a problem with our dog but I think some people will find it a problem.

Having booked a number of cottages through Hideaways this was the probably the nicest, the size and facilities were great, cleanliness excellent and some lovely touches like a Christmas tree (we were in the week before Christmas).The outside area was paved which was ideal for the dog and fully secure and a 2 minute walk to the Quay & Staithe Street for all the shops. There is an entrance lobby were dirty boots can be stored & the dog cleaned prior to entering the cottage although if you do bring a dog there is a good groomer just at the end of the road that does a great wash & blow dry if they are dirty after the beach. The owners clearly have a huge amount of pride with little notes all over the cottage and a lovely pack of brownies as a welcome gift,the only negative for us was the flooring in the hall had lifted right in front of the kitchen door ( covered by a rug) which did cause a couple of trips but was minor and I am sure the owners had the repair in place. We would definitely look to re book as Kipling House is worth every penny.

Really well equipped house, home from home. There wasn’t a thing we needed that wasn’t available. Lovely quality linens & towels. Cosy sitting rooms with gas fire log burner & decorative fire. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend & we hope to stay again. We actually met the owners who were very accommodating of us arriving a little early after a very long journey.

Kipling House was warm, clean and well equipped. Beds were comfortable, good quality showers. The position close to Wells harbour was a bonus. Dogs welcome with bowls, towels and a chew each. The entrance lobby was very useful for drying them off and also our boots and raincoats. We have booked a longer stay in 2020

Our stay at Kipling House was our second as we stayed there last year so it was obviously a good place to stay. The location is ideal and the house is furnished very well making our stay very comfortable although the flooring in the hall just outside the kitchen door was lifting and did become quite dangerous as we kept tripping on it.
