Absolutely fabulous house, great attention to detail and very well equipped. Beautifully decorated, very comfy beds with lovely linen. Host was very generous and accommodating.
Perfect place for our big family gathering plenty for the kids to keep them occupied great place for adults to get together and have a great time Would definitely recommend
We had a lovely stay here! 12 adults 5 children ranging from 8 weeks old - 9 years old. Perfect for all ages. Lots to do at the house, plus a lovely beach a stones throw away! We will be returning :)
The house was just what we wanted. Plenty of bedrooms with beautiful bed linen and plenty of towels. More than enough seating for everyone lounging and dining. Our 5 year old grandson nearly burst with excitement when he saw the playroom. Easy reach to the beach and amusements.

Thank you Sharon, its always good to hear when our guests enjoy their stay, especially the little ones!
Very nice and big house; kitchen was well equipped (enough crockery, cutlery, cooking pans..); nice bathrooms and bedrooms. There were 3 generations on our week long stay and there were plenty of things to do for the children (inside and outside). Location is great as it is very close to the beach which was quite empty when we were there.

Thank you Elisabeth for your review - yes, we are lucky it doesn't get too busy on the beach!
The house was perfect for us, very sociable for a family gathering and we had Avril from Chef2Dine4 on the Saturday night and the food was amazing as well
Lovely walks to the beach, pub nearby, coffee shops everything you needed really

So good to hear you enjoyed the birthday weekend at Tower House - thank you Karen!
We enjoyed stopping at Tower House especially the children as it was well equipped for children, they had so much fun in the playroom and the garden so well equipped. The kitchen was a dream two fridges which we needed and all the equipment just brilliant. Hope to stay there again sometime. Thank you from the Mann family.

Thank you Maureen, happy to hear the children were entertained :-)
Perfect accommodation for a large mixed age family group. Extremely well equipped. You’ll never run out of crockery or glassware. Seating for the whole family in kitchen, dining room, lounge and garden. Children’s playroom and garden area kept the younger ones entertained and the garage had extensive beach equipment to borrow.

Good to hear you had everything you need for your summer holiday! Thanks Susan.
Tower house is a beautiful property great location, has absolutely everything you could need and much more. We were large family group celebrating birthdays ages 7 months to 68 we all loved. Avril from chef2dine cooked for us on first night , food was amazing thank you. Would definitely recommend
Stayed for 3 nights to celebrate my 40th birthday. We were a group of 14 ranging from 2 to 66 and we had the most amazing time! The property was so well equipped for the children, they didn't want to go out! Clean, tidy, well decorated and plenty of space that you don't feel like you're under each others feet. The full sky package went down very well as did the karaoke machine! Fab location and great communication from the host leading up to our stay. Wish we'd booked longer! Will definitely be back!
Despite the rain and flooded roads on the way, most of us made it to Mundesley on the Friday night and we had a fabulous time. The house was perfect for our family and met everyone’s needs. It was nice to be able to see the sea from our bedroom windows especially when the sun came out, and walks along the beach were amazing along this stretch of the Norfolk coast. We had a small issue when we arrived but this was swiftly dealt with by the owners and didn’t perturb our stay in anyway. We can highly recommended this beautiful house.

Thank you Sarah, I am glad it lived up to expectations!
We were a multigenerational family of 9 adults and 6 children aged 4 to 11 years
The access to the beach was fantastic and the house and garden provided enough for the children to be occupied all week. While they entertained themselves the adults enjoyed socialising in the kitchen
The kitchen table was big enough for us all to be seated as did the outside seating. The whole house was well equipped and the only thing that could have enhanced our time would have been the provisions of a few more board games and paper / crayons for the older children on wet days
Everyone voted to come again next year

Thank you for your wonderful review Susan, we would be very happy to welcome you again!
Our family weekend holiday consisted of adults and children from 2 - 85 years of age. Tower House contained everything we could possibly want. The children played in the garden or in the playroom which meant the adults could relax. The kitchen was well supplied. The bedrooms were extremely comfortable. The garage contained all anyone could require for a day on the beach. The beach is fabulous and a very short walk away.
We didn’t use the cars apart from collecting fish and chips from the village chippy which were delicious. We had a drink at the Ship Inn and sat in the garden while the children played. We went to the mini golf which was good fun.
Thank you for an amazing holiday.

Sounds a perfect weekend, thank you for sharing Marianna.
As previous reviewers have said, this is is a very large well equipped house and was perfect for our Christmas get together. When we arrived, there was a tree up and lots of Christmas decorations, so we were in holiday mood immediately. The surfers and body boarders in the family were delighted with the proximity of the beach. The cooks were pleased to find the kitchen had everything they needed for festive meals- in particular huge pots for cooking ham and soup. (One very minor gripe not enough tea towels or cloths for mopping up - have told owner but maybe pack a few!) Children (9 months to 12 years) kept happy - most of the time - with all the toys and games. WiFi excellent. TV barely used so can't comment on that - except to say sign of a good holiday!!

Thank you Joy, good to hear you had a wonderful Christmas!
This wonderful house was every bit a home for our 3 generation family break. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and individual with coordinating bedding and soft furnishings. The children loved the themed bedrooms, and the playroom downstairs was a big hit from the 2 year old to the 12 year old. Bathrooms are modern and luxurious. Quality towels and some toiletries are provided, making it feel like a hotel. We arrived as the temperature dropped but the house was warm quickly and extremely comfortable. The garden play equipment and the beach toys kept everyone happy. There was everything you could possibly need in the huge family kitchen diner. Plenty of seating for all in the two adjoining lounge areas.
Tower House is in the perfect spot for family beach fun and coastal walks. Sunday lunch at The Ship Inn was excellent too.
We don't hesitate to recommend Tower House.

Fantastic Beverley, we are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for taking the time to review Tower House.
Wow. What an amazing property. Literally had everything you might need home from home. House is super comfy, large and really well designed. If you’re a family of adults to kids, it has it all. Location 200ft from the beach. We have spent many of the last years walking the Suffolk coast. Have to say the walk of over 7 miles to Cromer on a warm and sunny October Saturday was spectacular (mostly on the beach). Would highly recommend the house and village.

Thank you Nigel for a great review, I may even have to try that walk with the family too!
We have just had the most amazing weekend with family at Tower House for a 60th birthday celebration.
The house is beautifully decorated. We partly chose this house because it had a large table in the kitchen and a large dining table which could seat all 14 people in our group at the same time.
The playroom was a huge hit with the toddler that was with us she particularly loved the dressing up clothes.
We were lucky with the weather so we were able to spend time in the garden which, again had a large table and plenty of chairs and a large play area, another hit!
A couple of minutes walk to the the beach.
Tower House was very well equipped with everything that you could hope for and was like a home away from home.
I would certainly recommend and would stay again.

Thank you Lynne, so pleased to hear the house lived up to expectations!
Our family of 10 adults and 6 grandchildren had the most wonderful time at Tower House. The children had a fabulous time playing in the garden and playroom, they loved the themed bedrooms too. The location is great, a very short walk to the beach, a lovely pub on the doorstep serving great food and very generous portions also having a very good play area for the children. We had a day out at Bewilderwood which the children loved. The house is also perfect for family dining with everything you need for cooking. The hosts were really helpful in providing a new BBQ as the existing ones weren’t usable. We hired a hot tub from the recommended supplier which was great fun.
Fab holiday thank you Tower House 😁
What an amazing house! It has all been a wonderful experience for our 3 generational family. The children were so excited to find the playroom and outside play equipment. The dressing up clothes were a great success with the older ones and the youngest just wanted to look in all the boxes and chase the others with a doll's buggy. The swings outside were a favourite along with the trampoline. The beach was so close we could go even in the evening. Body boarding was a super new experience they loved.
The adults enjoyed the space both inside and out. The kitchen worked so well. Bedrooms and bathrooms were stylish and spacious. The amazing weather found us relaxing and star gazing at night on the outside seating area.
Thank you for an amazing holiday.

About the host
Hosted by Caroline Mace
I live in London with my husband, 3 sons and daughter. We discovered Norfolk a few years ago when we stayed locally for my husbands 40th birthday and fell in love with the area - its a traditional seaside village! Tower House is the perfect, spacious home for our family to run free and enjoy the fresh air, spend long happy family days on the sandy beach and generally put our feet up and relax! NOTE: I do have a full time job so I generally respond to queries late in the evening.
Why they chose this property
Perfect location, 100 yards from the sandy beach - you can't beat that view when you walk those few yards and get your first glimpse of the beach and sea, lovely quiet village, great local park (with skate park and (for a small fee) crazy golf) and the house is luxurious and comfortable for our large family to get together for special occasions.
What makes this property unique
We love the fact its only a few hours away and when we arrive there is so much space and lots to entertain the children within the house and locally in the park or on the sandy beach, even in the middle of December! It gives us some great family time and also the chance to slow down from our busy schedules.
