About this property

Edelweiss | East Ruston Cottages

INSIDE

Living room
Very light and white and spacious with engineered laminate floor throughout - easy to clean and not too slippery for paws. There is a large leather sofa and footstool and whilst the idea of a large white leather sofa might worry some dog owners, this has been specifically chosen for its easy clean (wipeable) surface. (Tracie and Neil who own the house have dogs of their own and lots of experience so they do know what dog owners need). Dogs are welcome to join you on it as long as you can bring your own throws with you. The flat screen TV has Sky and there is good wifi here.

Kitchen
Very well fitted with enough seating for 4. There is everything you need here - washing machine, tumble drier, dishwasher, fridge, freezer with enough room for raw food supplies - don't forget our local Raw Dog Food Company deliver to all our properties for free. To cook on there is a hob and oven plus microwave, kettle and toaster and a filtered water tap too.

Ensuite bedroom
King size bed with plenty of storage and hanging space and another tv with Freeview for bedtime viewing. The ensuite bathroom has a bath with a shower over it plus a toilet, sink and bidet too.

OUTSIDE
When you arrive, pull in through the large metal (electric) gates and onto the gravel parking in front of the annexe. The main house is to the right and the annexe is in front of you. Parking is in front of the pallisade fencing. The courtyard area here is the outside area for the annexe. Astroturf grass means no muddy paws and there is a hose outside too for washing it down. The bbq is a really neat one with a detachable top so you can take it over to the table and chairs outside (seats 4). There are even a couple of loungers, a parasol and beach chairs for sitting out and enjoying the sunshine!

Lovely cottage

We had a lovely stay in the cottage. Primary reason for going away was to avoid fireworks, which was completely fulfilled. We had some great walks on the beach where our dog could run and play off lead. Excellent place for anyone with dogs.

Beautiful place to stay

Everything was was wonderful, the owner was reall kind and helpful. The only thing we can say to balance a wonderful stay is we had to drive to the nearest pub

Lovely place and lovely owner

I had a lovely time at Edelweiss. Tracie was very helpful and left some wonderful gifts for my furbabies and me! The beaches are lovely and Bacton Wood was a great place to take the dogs for a walk in the shade. Thank you

A very comfortable cottage with lovely hosts .

My dogs and I really loved our stay in Edelweiss. Loved our Bloodhound neighbours and great beach walks. It’s a very comfortable cottage, fab welcome pack and very near to beaches which are dog welcoming.

A great place for some peace and quiet.

We stayed for 3 nights and it was so relaxing Lovely quiet spot away from the hussel and bussel. Tracie, the owner was so welcoming and left humans and dogs some treats, we didn’t have to go out finding bread, milk, butter, tea and coffee. It was all provided, it was so relaxing knowing that our dogs were welcome too. We were so happy that in the evenings we could relax knowing the dogs were safe in a secure garden. Looking forward to staying again next year.

Perfect place for us and our two dogs

We enjoyed a lovely week at Edelweiss - easy to get to nice local beaches for dog walks and other visitor attractions in the wider area. Accommodation was comfortable and just right for us and our two dogs. Great to have enclosed outdoor space and off road parking. Well looked after by Tracie who made us very welcome and checked we were comfortable.

Lovely few days away

Our first visit to Happisburgh. Located in a quiet and ideal location for lovely beach walks. We walked miles every day on almost deserted sandy dog friendly beaches. The accommodation was lovely and perfect for doggy holidays. The bed was really comfortable and we both slept well. Our only thought was that the bathroom would benefit from modernising as it looked tired and dated.

Beautiful property. This is the 3rd time we have stayed at Eidelweiss, we love it. Clean, bright, well equipped. Great location near some stunning beaches. The owners are lovely and always leave a fantastic welcome box full of goodies. We can't wait to come back.

Lovely and relaxing.

We needed a short break away from the stresses of moving house. Edelweiss was the perfect place. The owners made us feel really welcome and the cottage was wonderful and well equipped. Our dogs had every thing they needed and loved visiting all the local beaches.

Great dog friendly getaway

We have just returned from a stay at Edelweiss and can't fault it. The cottage was lovely, clean, well equipped and 100% dog friendly. Perfectly located to visit all the local beaches, woods, waterways, pubs and shops. Our hosts Tracy and Neil provided everything for a home away from home and were friendly and on hand if we needed anything. Thank you from us and our crazy whippets.

Another fab stay

Yet another wonderful stay at Edelweiss. I think this was our 3rd or 4th stay and every time has been perfect. It's ideally situated and close to our favourites beaches, pubs, restaurants and walks. Tracie is a lovely host and was great in providing a large crate, at short notice, for a dog on veterinary instructed bed rest! We walked miles on this holiday but came back very rested! The dogs loved their treats left for them and really enjoyed their stay. We definitely hope to return.

A gem

Edelweiss was a gem, a haven. Lots of space, very comfortable and very dog friendly. Kitchen was well equipped and catered for all. Lovely box of treats on arrival, dog included. It was great to discover there was a farm track nearby to give access to the coastal path and in easy walking distance of Happisburgh lighthouse and Cart Gap. Tracie the owner was very friendly and always on hand for any needs. I really enjoyed my stay, even relaxing in the sunshine outside the cottage. I returned home refreshed, recharged and longing to return again.

A great place for a getaway break

We had a short week away before Easter, and the Edelweiss was ideal for the two of us and our 3 dogs. The owners live in the attached property and were fantastic, friendly, chatty and I’m sure had there been any issues, they would have resolved them straight away. It’s a lovely location and probably be even better in the summer months. The welcome pack waiting for us was unexpected and such a great thing for them to do. As it was my birthday during our stay, there was a bottle of wine to go along with the milk, bread, butter, chocolates, cookies, eggs and dog treats (think there was a couple more bits I may have forgotten). The test is always, would we stay there again… and yes, we definitely would.

Great Cottage

Really enjoyed our stay. A great welcome from Tracie who even delivered fish and chips to us. The property is lovely, just right for Two people. The little garden is set back from the road so feels private and although I'm not usually an fake turf fan it works here and you can nip out in your socks with the dog. A reasonable stroll to the pub and beach. You will be able to see the (magnificent) resident hounds from the kitchen window but they are very quiet and completely unreactive to your presence. Well kitted out cottage with a very comfy bed and great welcome pack to get you started.

Perfect for couples & Dogs

Spent a week here in June 2023 with our two dogs and couldn’t have been better. The owner, Tracie, was very friendly and the whole set up made it easy to have the dogs with us. Nicely fenced off area at the front which was very secure that the dogs could easily access, less hassle for us as they didn’t need to be on lead to let them out. Great welcome pack on arrival and a huge welcome cake too! Sofa was a lovely size and very comfortable, although if you have dogs that tend to bring a lot of sand and dust in (spaniels like ours!!) might want to bring thicker throws with you to cover it. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you needed, and the whole cottage was a nice size for a longer stay. Nice outdoor furniture for eating or relaxing, and a BBQ too. It was about 1km walking distance to the beach from the cottage itself, to a quieter part than the main area, really convenient for taking the dogs with us. Very much enjoyed our stay and hope to return again
