    Such a lovely place! We only needed somewhere to sleep as we spent most of the time at a nearby family location over the Christmas period . If you like a snug room with bath and balcony , ask for room 1. If you want spacious twin room with shower then room 3 is perfect. Linda, the owner was very lovely and nothing was too much trouble !

    Nothing really. Maybe some way to hook the shower head on the wall if it could be practically contrived!

    Very quiet location near the sea and all restaurants and attractions. Lovely old place and very friendly and helpful owner. We liked the flexible breakfast arrangement too. Comfy bed and the balcony would be fantastic for sitting out in warmer weather.

    Room was fine but the decor was a bit tired. Bed was a bit over-firm for our taste!

    Very welcoming host. Interesting, historic Arts & Crafts building in an attractive part of New Hunstanton. Lovely sunny balcony, great for breakfast. Easily available on-street parking. Easy walk into town. Takeaway breakfast goods available all day and night.

    Can't think of anything.. we had a lovely stay.

    Linda the proprietor was so welcoming and helpful from the point of booking. She went out of her way to accommodate my parents gluten free and dairy free requests . The rooms were lovely and clean ... We loved our little balcony as well. The location was central and in walking distance to the beach. Would definitely come back again!☺️

    Linda was a friendly and perfect host. The location is fabulous for central Hunstanton - near everything but still a quiet area. The facility of having continental breakfast items available in the shared longe area whenever you want it and the use of a communal fridge made my stay even more comfortable.

    I couldn't park anywhere near by and had to pay on a carpark half a mile away. Affixed head shower is not ideal, and the toilet flush was haphazard.

    The lady owner was welcoming and explained everything well. There was a breakfast table that was a nice touch the location was really good the property was dated but suited us for a couple of nights.

    There wasnt anything that we didnt like about te Gables - it was a flawless stay with a wonder host..

    We booked 3 nights in The Gables Guest House and did not know what to expect as this was our first time in a Guest House. Linda the owner was very quick to respond to an early arrival request this was not an issue. The Gables is located so close to the sea and 10 to the local amenities. The Gables is a wonderful town house, set on a very quiet street, the room was spacious, comfortable and very warm and welcoming – you cannot ask for any more. The facilities within the room are fantastic, Iron, hairdryer, fan, Kettle with plenty of tea, coffee, milk and sugar – far beyond anything I have seen in any hotel,, there was no fear of running out of anything. The bathroom had shower gels; shampoo and hand wash etc. and not cheap toiletries. Linda the owner is a lovely warm welcoming person who was there if you needed anything or as we wanted a recommendations where to eat an evening meal and Linda was spot on with her recommendation of Chives. All in all this was a very memorable visit to Hunstanton in a beautiful guest house with a warm and welcoming host – Linda, thank you for being you!
