On the downside WiFi would have been good but not essential. Road outside got very noisy at times. TV a nightmare to get going Car covered in bird poop from the tree up drive Kitchen utensils sparse and frying pans and saucepans need replacing We went out and bought a fry pan to be able to cook breakfast On the good side - with the heating on the cottage is cosy Bed clean and comfortable - plenty of hot water - excellent shower Close to beach and shops - lots of lovely walks - nice garden although not warm enough for us to use

Situated a stones throw from the beach, this little gem has so much character it's simply the best holiday rental cottage we've ever hired. We stayed during the "mini beast from the East" in March 2018, so outside was pretty cold, but this is such a warm cottage, we really looked forward to returning each evening to warm up. Very dog friendly complete with a fully enclosed back garden. Very clean and well equipped, this cottage ticked every box. We got home 3 hours ago, and I've just rebooked for next month.

This was our second time at this cottage. The cottage is very cosy and in a very good location.

Little Thatch is a cosy, warm and welcoming little cottage. There was a perfect, enclosed garden for the dog and the beach was a two minute walk away which couldn't have been better. We hope to return later in the year.

The cottage was very close to the sea which was ideal for my dog who enjoyed the lovely sandy beach. Also close by was a little shop which sold our daily paper. Then there was a great fish and chip shop within walking distance to take back piping hot fish and chips for supper.

A comfortable, clean, warm little character cottage with a secure garden. An ideal location for the beach.

Little Thatch was ideally placed for access to the beach, literally a minutes walk and had every home comfort that we required for a weekend away. The garden was a bonus for our dog and was nice and secure also. Off road parking was very handy and access into the cottage via the side gate through the garden and into the kitchen was easy enough. Overall we were very pleased and would definitely return or recommend to others.

The cottage was great; cosy and comfortable, and the bed was very good and clean. Our dog (and us) enjoyed the garden and it was just a very short walk to the beach, which you can take your dog on, and its a very good beach. Just a great holiday in a great cottage, yes we would love to go again.

The cottage was so homely and cosy, and the garden was enclosed so no worry with our dog. Everything made for a relaxing holiday. There were lovely walks on the beach and cliffs, an ideal holiday for us and our dog.

Mrs Missenden

April 2015

Overall a fantastic weekend break, close to all amenities, including beach, town and surrounding locations. Even the precarious staircase was negotiated. Suggest plasters should be supplied for the head bangs on the beams ! but you learn very quickly to remember where they are.

Mrs Marshall

March 2015

The cottage was warm and inviting with a homely feel, lots of character charm and history. We had extremely good weather for March which is always a bonus. Everything about our holiday was mad special from start to finish.

Little Thatch was the perfect cottage for our pre-Christmas family get-away. Cosy, warm, and well-equipped, it provided a charming escape near to the beach and some lovely winter walks.

Miss Alford

Little Thatch is very dog friendly and the garden very safe and secure also very close to beach.

Mrs Ford

November 2014

The cottage was lovely, very clean, nicely decorated and had a large comfortable bed. Very efficient heating, hot water and the shower was great. It was just such an amazing cottage garden with everything thought about. It was in a lovely location with a sandy beach. We couldn't fault it - one of the best cottages we've stayed in.

Mrs Cooper

The cottage was very homely, warm and comfortable with many nice finishing touches.

Miss Mccoll

October 2014

Excellent little cottage. It was lovely and cosy for an autumnal week by the sea. The cottage has a small but very well kitted out kitchen with everything you need. Excellent enclosed garden to sit and enjoy some sun and for our puppy to play. We had a fabulous week here.

Mrs Woolford

August 2014

A superb cottage in every way, in particular it's charm, character, comfort and location to the beach.

Ms Burbidge

We particularly liked the location being only 5 minutes from the beach. The owner also provided loads of extra touches such as beach equipment and a welcome pack. The house was very clean and the garden was great to sit, relax and eat our meals outside. We will definitely recommend this property to our friends and family.

Guest

Lovely little cottage, very clean and well appointed with the added bonus of catering for pets, they even had spare dog leads , lovely secure garden and a stones throw from the beach, good parking for two cars. negative point is the cottage is close to the road but there is little traffic after dark so a good nights sleep is assured. ideal cottage for a short break away from the maddening crowd Will definitely book this cottage again

I found the cottage very comfortable indeed, and was pleasantly surprised to see it on the local postcards. Dog walks on the local beach were excellent. Thank you.

For people who appreciate a character cottage and realise that steep stairs, low beams, less space are an inherent part of it, I feel this cottage would take a lot of beating. Convenient situation for town and beach. Very safe and attractive garden for pets, good garden furniture. Good hot, spacious shower, comfortable furniture,good supply of books & DVDs. Only 2 mugs a bit unusual, but maybe last occupants broke some? Do agree with a previous reviewer that it would be nice to be able to open sealed bedroom windows, and, although attractive, shells in otherwise useful receptacles in a very small cottage is not ideal. Maximum space for visitor's fruit, bottles etc would probably be better.

Very nice cottage in a good location; garden was very good for the dog. Weather was excellent which really made the holiday.

Mr Shirmer

April 2014

The cottage was beautiful, clean and a joy, the cottage has a very secure garden which was an added bonus for my dog. We loved the proximity of the cottage to the beach, just a two minute walk. We will definitely book this cottage again, it is small but wonderful

We loved the proximity to the sea! The beautiful sandy beaches of Walton-on-the-Naze, and quaintness of the surroundings. This lovely period thatched cottage is cosy and well presented.

The proximity of this pretty cottage to the beach was a bonus and we enjoyed lovely walks along the promenade. However, this cottage needed a good clean. Fair enough we stayed at the end of the season but we were extremely disappointed with the poor level of cleanliness. The cottage is also very cluttered. Were the nine empty Bombay Sapphire gin bottles on the kitchen windowsill really necessary? They just took up space, which is at a premium here. The same could be said for the numerous containers of shells scattered everywhere! yes they are very pretty but holiday guests need to have somewhere to put their own stuff!! The bedroom is again very pretty but the two windows do not open and it is extremely stuffy - we had a particularly warm week and we could have done with a through breeze in this bedroom. Needless to stay there was a distinct smell of "bodies" and we decided that we dare not look at the mattress or we probably would have packed up and gone elsewhere!! Attention to detail seriously lacking, cobwebs and dust pretty much everywhere here. Sorry!

This really is a little gem of a property, the owner has gone to considerable lengths to make sure you have every thing you require. All we can say is we loved it.

Great place to stay, compact, well equipped and great garden. We spent a week at this cottage in June and were lucky enough to have great weather, the fully enclosed garden with good garden furniture was perfect for us and our Rough Collie. Also being so close to the beach with easy access for our four legged friend. The steep stairs were not a problem for us but might be for elderly or anyone with restricted mobility. There is some traffic noise as the bedroom overlooks a road, so not ideal if you want peace and quite evenings or early morning. Would recommend to anyone.

July 2013

excellent facilities very clean handy location stairs a little steep but we managed.

June 2013

A great little cottage full of charm, close to the seafront. The road was a little noisy at times and the sloping floors & ceilings took some getting used to!

Mr Crampton

April 2013

The cottage was very close to the sea, seaside attractions and country walks. Although the weather was bracing the cottage was always warm and cosy to come back to and felt welcoming. We had everything we needed.

Mrs Garland

February 2013

It was very close to the beach which we were able to walk our dog on. Beautiful cottage, very homely.

Mrs Mutten

Convenience of shops and beach without needing to use the car. Good bike path all the way along the sea front.

Miss Locke

It was such a cute little cottage and we were able to take our dog...so many lovely beach walks with him! Such nice décor in the cottage, has inspired me in my own home.

We particularly liked the proximity to the sea. The period features and cosy rooms. Parking and enclosed garden and being able to take my dog. Thoroughly enjoyed this property and location and would love to return. Thank you!
