It’s a well thought through cottage, comfortable and homely yet with all the mod-cons you could wish for. The standard of finish and cleanliness is to a high standard. It’s located in a lovely area, close to beaches and surrounded by fields. It brings nature to the door and a sense of tranquility. The owners are super helpful, if required, and discreetly in the background. We love it there, been a few times and booked for next year. Bumblebee is well worth a visit. ##### Barbara M.

From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Apr 6, 2025 #### A bee-autiful place to stay Bumblebee is very lovely - really comfortable and well thought out accommodation with a great hot tub and of course the dog paddock. An easy walk to the coast and the Star pub - what could be better? Thanks to Paul and Stella who are excellent hosts and thanks for the welcome pack - Daisy the greyhound just loves the dog treats. Thoroughly recommended. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Nov 7, 2024 #### A lovely stay The cottage had everything for a truly dog friendly stay. The owners were warm and welcoming, and left us a lovely welcome basket - thank you! The hot tub was such a bonus at the end of a day out. We really liked the local area and found lots to do with our whippet (Lady). Thank you for a lovely stay. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie S. Sep 24, 2024 #### Fabulous stay Bumblebee cottage is lovely. It has everything you need for a holiday. The property was very clean and beautifully finished. The large paddock was wonderful for the dogs, it even had a warm tap outside to shower the dogs if needed. Situated a short walk from a lovely pub. It is very peaceful and the lighthouse can be seen from the property. Very much enjoyed our stay. ##### Julie S. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Jul 7, 2024 #### Perfect place for relaxation!! We have had a most relaxing week here. The dogs have loved the local walks and beaches, the paddock to play in and the welcome biscuits. We have loved everything about the cottage, from the welcome hamper to everything inside and outside. Relaxing evenings in the hot tub and a nice peaceful area to relax outside. We will definitely be returning as soon as we are able to. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie and Bruce W. Mar 11, 2024 #### The Bumblebee Our stay at The Bumblebee was as perfect as it could be. Everything was exceptionally clean and beautifully presented throughout. Our two greyhounds enjoyed the local walks and ambling around the paddock. The hot tub was an added bonus. Paul and Stella made us feel very welcome and we can't wait to return. ##### Julie and Bruce W. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara M. May 11, 2025 #### A little piece of heaven We returned to Bumblebee in a different season and found a tranquil peaceful haven surrounded by nature bursting into spring. The cottage is more than comfortable, beautifully presented and the patio is a sun trap. There is everything there for humans and dogs. The walks from the front door are relaxing and the beach is 5 minutes away. The owners are supportive and friendly but unobtrusive. We will be back! In fact already booked for the autumn. ##### Barbara M. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Mar 23, 2025 #### Perfect! A perfect, relaxing, peaceful week at a very beautiful cottage. Bumblebee has been lovingly restored to a very high standard. The owners were very friendly & happy to have a chat & left us with a very generous welcome hamper on arrival. Shared with The Walnut & The Peanut, the dog paddock is a great addition & there are excellent walks from the door & the nearest beach is only a few minutes drive. Overall, we've had a really lovely week with some great weather for March! From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent May 31, 2024 #### Amazing! Where to start? Stella and Paul have created an idyllic and beautiful holiday spot. The quality of accommodation is inspiring. Everything is thought of for both people and their four-legged family members. You just can’t say enough about the hosts and the cottages. We live nearby and stayed while undertaking renos. We have already recommended to friends and family and would most certainly stay again! Perfection. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paula D. Apr 24, 2025 #### Simply the best Stayed 4 nights at bumblebee cottage it was like home from home actually better as had hot tub and wood burner which made it so cosy. The attention to detail was amazing the welcoming hamper the beautiful smell as you walked in and the fresh tulips and lots more that just caught your eye everyday. Lovely large garden for dogs shared with the other 2 cottages which isn’t a problem and you still have your own little outside patio alot of lovely towns and beeches a short drive away, there was a pub with great food about half hr walk away. There was a lot of information in bumblebee cottage if you needed or ask Paul or Stella they were very helpful. ##### Paula D. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine P. Jun 9, 2024 #### Great place to chill The cottage and owners were first class, everything you and your four legged friend could ask for. We loved the area, so many fantastic beaches and walks. There were recommendations for places to eat and drink, with your dog. Generally with all the dog orientated information the holiday was stress free. Which made it even better. We will return later in the year with the confidence that we will be chilling in comfort. We loved it. ##### Catherine P. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debbie F. Feb 5, 2024 #### Beautiful dog friendly cottage in a lovely location Just had a great two weeks at Bumblebee. Perfect for us and our two dogs. Everything provided that we needed and a lovely welcome basket. Large shared paddock right outside was easy to use, torches and outside lights provided for use last thing at night. About a mile and a half flat walk to the beach at Cart gap which has a little cafe with beach huts provided for dog owners. The whole area is very dog friendly. Paul and Stella were very welcoming and helpful. We are already planning our next visit. ##### Debbie F. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katharine B. Apr 10, 2024 #### Beautiful Bumblebee We stayed at the new Bumblebee cottage as a family group along with The Walnut and The Peanut. We were welcomed with a lovely basket of local goodies. The cottage is beautifully furnished and the log burner is great for cosy evenings. There are lovely views over the fields through the windows and stable door. Everything you could need is provided for humans and dogs. The hot tub was so relaxing with towelling robes provided and checked by the owners daily. Thank you for a lovely stay and we hope to be back soon! ##### Katharine B. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Apr 15, 2024 #### Bumblebee Cottage What a lovely property! As soon as you walked in you could appreciate the effort the owners have put in. The decor, clean and spacious and with everything we needed and more. A lovely generous welcome pack on arrival with treats included for our dogs along with bowls, towels and beds for them. Great location for walks and close to several different beaches. The dogs had use of courtyard and secure green which they made good use of whilst we relaxed in the hot tub! The owners are on site and were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend and would love to come back soon. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara M. Nov 10, 2024 #### Terrific cottage Bumblebee is a well thought through modern cottage with lots of character. Paul and Stella are owners who clearly have a passion for their business. This is a great dog friendly property but doesn’t let the humans down either. Lots of mod cons, comfortable bed and well equipped kitchen. It’s in a quiet but accessible location. The facilities for dogs are great from the outside shower to paddock to lots of dog toys and throws. I really trust East Rushton Cottages on their choice for their portfolio and Bumblebee and Willow tree holidays are a winner. It came recommended by Sue for the quiet location for a reactive Cairn to escape fireworks and it delivered. It’s been a great find for us , and hopefully we will return. ##### Barbara M. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Aug 14, 2024 #### Perfect! Perfectly peaceful but just a short drive to everything, Bumblebee is the best yet! East Ruston Cottages always get it right but Bumblebee is just perfect. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome and comfortable. The goodies basket was delicious (super baked goods), the dogs loved the play field and our bed was more comfortable than at home (seriously!). Beautiful views from hot tub heaven every evening and cool early morning strolls along quiet lanes & tracks. We would highly recommend Bumblebee as a super dog friendly and comfortable cottage for two people. Spotlessly clean with everything needed for a relaxing break. Thank you ERC & Bumblebee Owners. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue M. Jul 14, 2024 #### Excellent Bumblebee was perfect for us and our 3 Westies, two of them elderly so being able to let them wonder about the lovely well kept paddock was amazing for them. The quality of the Bumblebee with great furnishings and equipment was spot on. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners. Hot tub was an added bonus in the evenings with a glass of wine. Weather wasn’t the best but we had an enjoyable week. Only negative and I hate to say this is we like to read before bed and found the lighting in the bedroom a bit too dark. The bedside lamps are beautiful but more for decoration than being able to pick up a book and read a couple of chapters before sleep ##### Sue M. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lindsey M. Aug 4, 2024 #### Absolutely amazing cottages, stunning location & fabulous hosts!! already booked a return trip We have 7 rescue pugs and finding somewhere that doesn't panic the minute you mention 7 is amazing. Cannot recommend staying at Bumblebee Cottage enough we left yesterday and it was hard to leave. Paul and Stella are a lovely couple they have made their properties little slices of heaven, the cottage is immaculate well thought out in design and cleaned to an exceptionally high standard, set on private peaceful and very lovely grounds the location and we have had the best time The accommodations are not just dog friendly they are all above and beyond and designed with our furry pawed babies in mind. Fabulous welcome pack on arrival eith lots of yummy treats for us but also with treats for the dogs! They also provided bowls, towels, spare leads, beds, crates and throws for the furniture so the doggies can sit with us for snuggles. We also had a doggy pram provided for our senior Pug which made this trip easy for us and fun for them. Happisburgh is beautiful we were close to the beaches but having the paddock was perfect for lazy days and made our holiday planning so much easier, an amazing relaxing dog friendly place we have already booked to come to Bumblebee Cottage for August 2025 xxx ##### Lindsey M. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Aug 17, 2025 #### Amazing stay we absolutely loved our stay. The cottage was immaculate and the welcome goodies were amazing. Location was perfect , very quiet and relaxing but still close to beaches. Really dog friendly-probably the best dog friendly cottage we’ve ever been to. Thank your From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katrina W. May 11, 2025 #### Second time here This is our second visit and won't be our last! Lovely holiday home and very lovely hosts. We would highly recommend it ##### Katrina W. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Jul 20, 2025 #### Simply the best Absolutely can not fault our stay at Bumblebee Cottage. Due to a family health issue we didn’t think we would make it there. But we did, and we were made very welcome. There is everything you could possibly need in the cottage. Our dogs settled in so well. The welcome pack was especially good and some nice little personalised touches. Thank you Stella & Paul xx ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [The Flying Bull Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Liss-Hotels-The-Flying-Bull-Inn.h25677205.Hotel-Information) > - [Kings Head Hotel by Greene King Inns](https://www.expedia.ca/Norwich-Hotels-Kings-Head-Hotel-By-Greene-King-Inns.h10414421.Hotel-Information) > - [Clifton Park Hotel - Exclusive to Adults](https://www.expedia.ca/Lytham-St-Annes-Hotels-Clifton-Park-Hotel.h2301929.Hotel-Information) > - [Red Lion Todwick by Chef and Brewer Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sheffield-Hotels-Red-Lion-Todwick-By-Greene-King-Inns.h2621699.Hotel-Information) > - [Grassington Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Skipton-Hotels-Grassington-Lodge.h76266496.Hotel-Information) > - [Chiseldon House](https://www.expedia.ca/Swindon-Hotels-Chiseldon-House.h24161816.Hotel-Information) > - [Luxury Beach House Rental with Hot Tub, 30 meters to Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Luxury-Beach-House-Rental-With-Hot-Tub.h27313935.Hotel-Information) > - [Lakeside Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Norwich-Hotels-Lakeside-Lodge.h31001547.Hotel-Information) > - [Cosy Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Northallerton-Hotels-Cosy-Cottage.h31001064.Hotel-Information) > - [OYO The Leven](https://www.expedia.ca/Middlesbrough-Hotels-OYO-The-Leven.h16573899.Hotel-Information) > - [Mary's Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Ilfracombe-Hotels-Marys-Cottage.h26996795.Hotel-Information) > - [Ivy Bank](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Ivy-Bank.h31004611.Hotel-Information) > - [Sandy Balls Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Fordingbridge-Hotels-Sandy-Balls-Holiday-Village.h82956532.Hotel-Information) > - [The Loft](https://www.expedia.ca/Holsworthy-Hotels-The-Loft.h26996248.Hotel-Information) > - [The Derwent Manor Boutique Hotel ](https://www.expedia.ca/Consett-Hotels-The-Derwent-Manor-Boutique-Hotel.h9535.Hotel-Information) > - [Royal Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Norwich-Hotels-Royal-Hotel.h5061271.Hotel-Information) > - [The Dairy](https://www.expedia.ca/Keighley-Hotels-The-Dairy.h31000303.Hotel-Information) > - [Cliveden House](https://www.expedia.ca/Maidenhead-Hotels-Cliveden.h518646.Hotel-Information) > - [Rose Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Skipton-Hotels-Rose-Cottage.h31001473.Hotel-Information) > - [The Antrobus Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Salisbury-Hotels-The-Antrobus-Hotel.h15879840.Hotel-Information) > - [Charming 3-bed House in Levenshulme, Manchester](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Charming-3-Bed-House-In-Levenshulme.h103940695.Hotel-Information) > - [Hex Wildlife Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Doncaster-Hotels-Hex-Hotel.h74151245.Hotel-Information) > - [Burley Manor](https://www.expedia.ca/Ringwood-Hotels-Burley-Manor.h65828.Hotel-Information) > - [The Feathered Nest Country Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Chipping-Norton-Hotels-The-Feathered-Nest.h44085381.Hotel-Information) > - [The Queens Arms Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hexham-Hotels-The-Queens-Arms-Hotel.h29476804.Hotel-Information) > - [Stonehenge Courtyard](https://www.expedia.ca/Stonehenge-Courtyard.h97558122.Hotel-Information) > - [Southern Cross Guest House](https://www.expedia.ca/Sidmouth-Hotels-Southern-Cross-Guest-House.h3968950.Hotel-Information) > - [The Cross at Croscombe](https://www.expedia.ca/Wells-Hotels-The-Cross-At-Croscombe.h35380551.Hotel-Information) > - [Cowley Manor Experimental](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-Cowley-Manor.h1662540.Hotel-Information)
