The Lookout Cromer Reviews

Lesley
Beautiful location. Second visit and will return.
Jan
4 slice toaster would be good . We struggled with water and pressure as system we found system complicated . Location is absolutely fabulous
Tony
Comfortable accommodation which, in the main, was well equipped. Very quiet at night. Ten/fifteen - minute walk to Cromer town centre, beach and pier. Very convenient for a lovely town and area. Plenty of car parking space. Outdoor area good, if required, with ample equipment. .
Rachel
What a fab location - just minutes from the centre of Cromer - yet was tucked away enough to have that sense of isolation that you need in a holiday. The putting green next door was a highlight plus the crazy golf a little further along. Everything, including a supermarket, was within easy walking distance. Highly recommended!
Andrew
Premises are clean and functional but the location is dramatic and walking into Cromer a breeze.
Rainer
The Lookout is a very cool holiday location near to the city Cromer (5min walk) and to a phantastic beach area (5min walk). Environment and garden are beautiful. Next to the cottage is a huge parking area and popular for motorbikes. In the night is everything very quiet and hear the ocean - at daytime you hear the bikes and cars.
Pat
Location superb , lovely cottage , had a fabulous few days , so private dispite its location
Gillian
Wonderful location, lots of home comforts and so well equipped even down to water bottles that we haven't seen at any other holiday accomodation.
Diane
Lovely cottage with everything you need for a weeks holiday. We spent our afternoons in the conservatory enjoying views of the sea & the big skys. Great garden & parking. Ideal location close for all amenities. Nice that cottage has been in the same family for decades.
Judi
You cannot beat this location. It is by far what dreams are made of. The bed in the King room was exceptional. We lived in the conservatory for most of our holiday. We loved it, and have some beautiful memories from our stay.
Teresa
lovely location well equipt house. good water pressure for showers. however be careful of rats in the garden we saw them daily on our weeks stay. plenty of parking space, walking distance to pier and town.
Christine
Lovely holiday, perfect peaceful location but near enough to walk into Cromer with our dog. Holiday went too quick, can't wait to book & return next year.
Jacqueline
Very comfortable, and well equipped with everything we needed. Fabulous location, just a short walk into town. Very private, not overlooked atall. We enjoyed staying here, both out and about in Cromer and spending time relaxing at The Lookout.
Peter
Comfortable and cozy place to use as a base for exploring this corner of Norfolk, Cromer is a smashing sea-side town and offers plenty of options for a good beer and food, if a little pricey. Great walks from here and the sea view is very good. We went out of season so not everything open yet, but will provide whole family entertainment as you'd expect.
Pamela
Great place in a great location. Canâ??t wait to return
