THE OLD BAKERY

March 2020
Really wonderful holiday home in every respect
I have stayed in many holiday homes in the past & this fabulous apartment in Cromer is among the very best I have experienced. Communication wiTh the lovely owner Annette was excellent, both before, during & after our stay. The apartment is beautifully furnished & so we equipped, but what really sets the property apart & makes it so deserving of its 4 star gold rating is it’s exceptional attention to detail with so many special touches which help to ensure that guests have a wonderful experience staying here.Annette is such a thoughtful & considerate host. On arrival, we were delighted to discover a welcome pack of milk, butter,bread, sausages, bacon, mushrooms, eggs & beans.Tea, coffee & sugar is also provided, free Wi-fi, Netflix & no less than three large TVs as well as an extensive DVDs, there’s plenty to keep guests & their children entertained. Annette has provided terrific toys & games for children including a toy garage & play mat & a mini kitchen, making this apartment perfect for families as well as couples. Lightning throughout the property is excellent, with recessed spotlights & styling table lamps as well as floor standing lights providing warm & cosy pools of light. The pretty outside Terrance, accessibly via french doors from both bedrooms, is a welcome addition. I would have no hesitation recommending this holiday home to my family & friends & will certainly be back to stay again myself. It has been absolutely delightful in every way.

The location was within easy distance to the town and sea front, this was our first visit to Cromer & we would definitely like to come back.

Really nice place, not far from the sea & beautiful National Trust places..enjoyed so so much! Thank you. Anna from Russia. June 2016

What a wonderful flat. I truly felt at home & to be honest I wasn’t sure I wanted to leave. Everything about this apartment is modern, it’s cozy, bright & spacious.

I certainly hope this rental is available the next time I return to Cromer.

Andy from Hertfordshire. August 2016

The apartment was a great size, well decorated & very clean. The neighbourhood was nice with large park nearby. It’s a bit of a walk down to the seaside but the location is great for day trips to Mundesley or to nearby National Trust properties like Felbrigg Hall. Annette had provided tea, coffee, milk, bread & a complimentary breakfast that was a really nice touch. And was great to have the added benefit of Netflix too.

Katherine from Coventry. July 2016

Very impressed by the apartment, & the host was kind & generous ( we didn’t have xpect breakfast to be waiting in the fridge!) lots of space inside & a nice decked area out back. Well located for Cromer & nearest beach only 5 minutes away

Steven. June 17

The place was very well laid out & I liked the bedroom orientation as they were downstairs. You can walk straight out onto the patio from the bedrooms to enjoy the fresh air in the morning. The bed was very comfortable & bathroom really nice I loved the glass sink. The kitchen is well equipped & there is a dining room area separate from the lounge area. The kitchen also had all the amenities needed to cook some lovely meals & the oven is very easy to use. The place is spacious. There is a Tv in every room which was great to watch films on. Annette was a great host who made me feel very welcomed & also left me a pumpkin for carving as it was Halloween! The breakfast selection was lovely & I also had fresh bread for toast. This place is somewhere I would highly recommend & I will definitely be making another visit soon.

Senna, October 17

An extremely stylish place to stay with everything you could possibly wish for. The breakfast pack was a real bonus, which meant we could just turn up & enjoy. Comfortable rooms. Comprehensive cooking facilities & excellent entertainment available, ie TVs, WiFi, Netflix etc. Would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending The Old Bakery as a great base to explore Cromer & surrounding area.

Graeme. November 17

We has an amazing time at this apartment. Beautifully set & decorated for Christmas season. We found pretty everything that we needed to use from kitchen utensils to bathroom & bedroom sets. My 2 children & my husband, all enjoyed every minute that we spent there. The location is brilliant, just walking distance to the seaside. I would book it again & again

21st December 17

Just got back from a 4 day break at The Old Bakery. I cannot believe we found such a gem. Absolutely fabulous accommodation. Extremely clean, Annette left a loaf of bread & a full English in the fridge. We couldn’t ask for anything more.

UPPER BAKERY

The upper Bakery was dressed for Christmas this time & was again a delight to stay in. It offers a stylish & bright retreat to the seaside & Annette’s thoughtful touches make it even more enjoyable.

This was my first experience of an Airb&b home & it surpassed all expectations. Annette’s messages beforehand were helpful & thorough. The Upper Bakery was like a home from home and we felt very comfortable there. I loved all the little extras dotted around the place that showed a lot of thought. It was very clean without feeling like a show home. The location was ideal for exploring the Norfolk coastline. Definitely recommend to others.

Annette place was ideally suited for the beach & town centre. There was so much information available once you got into the flat, that the whole experience & decision making was very easy. Her home was just lovely with everything you could expect to make your stay a comfortable one. We were there between Christmas and New year & were pleasantly surprised to find a lovely decorated Christmas tree & decorations. The home was spotlessly clean & beautifully decorated throughout. The finishing touches were much appreciated. We hope to visit again.

August 2018
I had a lovely few days at The Upper Bakery. The apartment was a real home from home with all that you could possibly need. It has the best equipped kitchen I’ve experienced so far with Airbnb, the whole space was immaculate. Annette has obviously put a great deal of thought into planning everything to give her guests the best experience. The location is an excellent base for walking & there is also a very good chip shop just a few doors down for the full seaside experience. Only downside is that I wished I could have stayed longer.

I can’t recomend this place enough! The apartment is very light & stylish, we were there in January & it was also nice & warm. There was an added bonus of Netflix & Bluetooth speaker. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need. It’s maybe a 10min walk to beach & town. If your there with your dog everywhere is very dog friendly, we will definitely be back, thank you Annette.

Coming back very soon.

We had a lovely 8 nights at this stylish flat. Lots of attention to detail & loved the nautical theme decor & massage chair! We had our 18 month old daughter with us & the space was great for her to toddle around. Communication with Annette was great, even messaging us to say we could check in earlier which was very much appreciated after our 6 hr drive! Near enough to Cromer & nice residential area. Would definitely stay again-thank you!
