Lovely and cosy with everything you could want and more. Hosts provided a brilliant welcome basket for both humans and our excited dog, Jasper. Great little dog friendly village with a smashing pub and cafe . Would highly recommend recommend to any dog owner who wants a relaxing break but has a dog who loves swimming and meet people. Thank you so much for our wonderful stay xxx This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Mar 29, 2025 #### Wonderful to be back at Jack's Shack Another wonderful visit to Winterton-on-Sea and Jack's Shack. Caroline has provided everything you could need for a dog-friendly holiday by the sea and the welcome basket is the best we have received at any rental property. Jack's Shack is virtually on the dunes making it so easy for humans and dogs to go for lovely walks from the doorstep regardless of the tides. The Seal View is a perfect place to stop for a coffee and the fish & chips from the Winterton Fish Bar are the best around!

We had a fabulous long weekend. Caroline had thought of every home comfort for us and the dogs, I have not stayed anywhere before where the dogs have been so well catered for. The cottage is lovely, calm, quiet and in the most amazing location.. we loved having the dunes and beach outside of our back door. I am already searching for dates to come back! ##### Clare E.

The cottage was clean, well presented & every comfort gad be thought of by the owner. This is the best holiday home we have stayed in.

Caroline was fantastic, lots of communication and additional touches which made such a difference. We’ve never stayed in such a well equipped house, it had everything and more. Would definitely recommend and we will be back. Thank you, Caroline! This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Jun 7, 2025 #### Just Perfect For me staying with my two dogs, Jacks Shack was the perfect location, and perfect accommodation. Out of the back door and straight onto the dunes where my boys could run, walk, sniff freely off lead. A few minutes (or more dependant on sniffing) and you are at the beach. Jacks Shack is a very comfortable cottage and well equipped with lots of cups, plates etc. dishwasher, washing machine (should you need??) Totally enclosed garden so completely safe for dogs. Winterton is a quietish lovely location with just one pub, which suited us. If you want rowdy late nights, this is not a place for you!! This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Feb 24, 2025 #### Amazing What a brilliant place to stay. Everything down to the last tiny detail had been thought about and implemented. We took our 2 dogs and they absolutely loved it, there was just everything that you could think of for them to enjoy their stay. We were made to feel so welcome and the communication before hand was brilliant. We will definitely go back to Jack's Shack!! Thank you!!!

May 8, 2025 #### Lovely well equipped house that is more than dog friendly on the sand dunes at Winterton on sea. Nestled right near the beach, this charming dog-friendly cottage is a perfect getaway for pet lovers. The outdoor area offers plenty of room for you to enjoy the sun whilst your furry friends have access to the picturesque beach and sand dunes easily. Parking available in the garage. Inside, the cottage is cozy and well-appointed, with comfortable furnishings and all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay. Dog amenities go above and beyond what you usually expect in a self catering cottage. (We have found this to always be the case at ERC) Our pup loved the nearby dog-friendly cafe/ pub. If you’re looking for a relaxed escape where your dog is just as welcome as you are, this cottage is an absolute gem! Highly recommended for both two-legged and four-legged travelers alike. ##### Mandy C.

Fabulous! ##### Ann C. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Sep 29, 2024 #### Loved our stay by the dunes! We stayed for four nights at a lovely little cottage (Jack’s Shack) which is right behind the dunes at Winterton on sea. Gorgeous beach, lovely little village, really cosy little cottage with literally everything you might ever need! I loved how incredibly hound-friendly this holiday was - the owner clearly really loves dogs and my dog felt so welcome! The communication before, during and after my stay (from the owner and from the East Ruston team),was exceptional, and I will definitely consider having a holiday stay with East Ruston cottages another time.

What a fabulous place to stay, from the location, to the facilities to everything thought of for the dogs, we really cannot fault Jack's Shack. The kitchen was so well equipped, the bed super comfy with quality bed linen and pillows and everywhere was spotless and furnished to a lovely standard which felt very homely. The log burner was easy to light with logs provided. We loved to be able to walk out the back directly onto the dunes but still so close to the fish shop, pub and tea room all literally a 2/3 mins walk. Everything has been thought of and we are very much looking forward to another visit next year. ##### carol B.

A great location right on the sand dunes in Winterton on Sea. Open the back door and you can walk for miles with the dog running free. The owner has provided everything you could possibly need both for humans and dogs! She made contact before our stay which made arriving very smooth. A relaxing week from the start.

Apr 26, 2024 #### Fantastic dog friendly cottage in a very dog friendly village We stayed for a long weekend with our dog and had a great time. Jack’s Shack is great for humans and dogs alike with lots of thoughtful touches including dog blankets, towels, beds, bowls, ‘holiday’ tags and a nice welcome pack for us. Very spacious bedroom, well appointed kitchen, good sized dining room and a lovely suntrap sunroom. One of the highlights is that the back garden is essentially the start of the dunes. Highly recommended. ##### Mike F. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Apr 26, 2024 #### A lovely little cottage on the dunes We booked Jack's Shack as a 'last minute' break and we certainly weren't disappointed. It's a lovely little cottage only footsteps (literally) away from the dunes at Winterton, so a perfect location for both humans and dogs. The cottage it one of the best appointed and provisioned holiday cottages we've stayed in. The owners have thought of everything two-legged and four-legged guests could need including a lovely welcome basket of goodies. We would definitely recommend it and look forward to returning there one day.

We was welcomed with lots of treats, wine cheese crisps etc. There was also every toiletry you could need. The house was beautiful with a log burner which was lovely as we went in February so was used every night. There is a lovely dog friendly pub within walking distance and the most beautiful beach on the doorstep. I would definitely go again, thank you x This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Apr 26, 2024 #### Beautiful place What can I say about this place.

A lovely, cosy cottage in a great location (right on the dunes) with everything humans and dogs might need for short or long breaks in this beautiful part of the Norfolk coast. The welcome basket has some tasty treats to get the holiday off to a great start and there are plenty of dog beds, bowls, toys and treats to please four-legged guests too. It is undoubtedly the best provisioned holiday cottage we've stayed in. Winterton has a great Fish & Chip shop and Poppy's Tea Room and the Seal View Cafe (right on the dunes) are perfect stops for coffee and lunch. We hope to be back very soon.

Jack’s Shack is located right on the dunes & so easy to get out for lovely walks, but also under 5 minutes to Poppy's tea room & pub which are very dog friendly as well as the excellent fish & chips shop & the corner store. The cottage itself has lots of equipment for both humans and dogs. The only niggles for us (being old) are the lack of a chair/stool in the bedroom (the bed is quite high) and the dim lights making reading & doing jigsaws difficult. Obviously having the only toilet downstairs is not ideal, especially with a sleeping dog on the way through to the bathroom, but it is not a big problem. It is a very quiet location - just the birds to wake us up and the bed is very comfortable (both very important to us, although the pillows didn’t suit us and the sheets were heavily creased). The heating also worked very well. The front garden is nice & sheltered & fairly private and it was good to have the loungers. The seating in the lounge & dinning area could have been better, but were OK. We found it disappointing that we could not access the cottage before 4 on check in day and had to leave before 10 on check out day, especially as we were only there for 3 nights.

It met all the gold standards that we have so far experienced when booking through East Ruston Cottages - very clean, very comfortable, welcoming, everything you need and more provided for both humans and dogs. Could easily have turned up with just a suitcase, ourselves and the dogs and nothing more. Excellent location for village amenities and beach walks. Is definitely on our return list. Blown away by the provision of so many doggy items that we never knew we needed!

Really enjoyed our stay, the host had thought of everything and the home was packed full of useful surprises. Suitable for children and most dogs. Our dogs did struggle a little with the proximity of the neighbours and neigbouring doggy noises. That was more of an oversight of mine as opposed to the hosts however. The host had thought of everything for dogs inside of the property however and the dogs did mostly enjoy their stay. 10 minute walk to the beach, 1 minute to the Dunes. Lovely little village with a nice little pub, very good fish and chip shop and cafe. Will definitely visit Winterton again. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Pittsburgh](https://www.expedia.ca/Pittsburgh-Hotels.d601717.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fives Beach Hotel - Á la Carte All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-The-Fives-Beach-Hotel-Residences-All-Senses-Inclusive.h1966239.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Dartmouth](https://www.expedia.ca/Dartmouth-Hotels.d7560.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Waterton Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Waterton-Park-Hotels.d181753.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cabin Rentals Rocky Mountain House](https://www.expedia.ca/Rocky-Mountain-House-Cabins.d10606-aaCabins.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flair Airlines Abbotsford (YXX) to Toronto (YYZ) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/flair-airlines-from-abbotsford-intl-to-pearson-intl/f8/yxx/yyz) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Oslo (OSL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/osl/calgary-to-oslo) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Dallas (DFW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/dfw/vancouver-to-dallas) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) > > [Puerto Rico Island Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Rico-Island.d180021.Destination-Travel-Guides)
