Great house in a great location
The house is clean, well appointed and suits a family very well. The yard is gravel which is the only downside if you have young kids who like to play outside. There is a sandpit and toys though. We spent most of our time at the beach at the end of the street so the yard was fine

Beautiful beach house, great family holiday, would be hard to find a better place to stay.
My family of 6 (2 adults, 4 children) stayed at the Orford Holiday House. It is beautifully presented. Very clean, modern, and has just about everything/anything a family could need on a holiday away. A well set up kitchen, games and toys for kids (for play both indoors and out), beach equipment, comfortable beds, clean and modern bathrooms, ample (and safe) parking AND a complimentary bottle of wine! The owners are easily contactable, and always responded promptly to any enquiries. We all loved staying here and would highly recommend this property to anyone else looking for a comfortable, relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable holiday house.
