Sandcliff Guest House enjoys a superb location near the beach and within easy walking distance of Cromer's town center and the 2024 Pier of the Year. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, some offering lovely sea views from bay windows-perfect for relaxing. Many find the tea and coffee making facilities a welcome convenience, and dog owners particularly value the thoughtful "doggy box" provided; though some guests have noted that certain bathrooms are shared with multiple rooms.

Wonderful stay!

friendly staffexcellent breakfastwater bottle
The staff were really friendly. Breakfast was excellent. It was freshly cooked. I chose to return because of these features. The room was great.
The bottle of water in the room was for the kettle. I was never told this. The bottle exploded at 2.50 in the morning, waking my wife and me. Everything was soaking with glass.

The location was very convenient. It was close to the coast (just a short walk!). Onsite parking was available and nearby, a plus. Staff allowed me to leave my car there until check-in time, which I thought was very helpful.
My room was small. It featured a shower and toilet within the bedroom, but there was no proper ventilation even with the window open (that was a problem!). There was no fan provided, made for an uncomfortable night.
