We had a lovely stay this bank holiday at Bon Vista guest house, and we had the best room, number 5, which is the premium room with a sea view and a lovely kingsize bed and large double sofa bed. We stayed one night, myself, my husband and our teenage daughter. We were made very welcome by the owner Jim.... More

My husband and I booked Bona Vista for a weekend away staying 3 nights in the beautiful Cromer. At the time of booking, Jim notified me that this coincided with the Cromer & Sheringham Crab & Lobster Festival demonstrating great local knowledge and made us feel welcome to ask anything about the local area. We arrived slightly earlier than suggested... More

I have just returned from a 4 night stay at Bon Vista in Cromer, Norfolk. Jim, the owner, was not only lovely, kind and caring but also considerate of our needs. We stayed at Bon Vista after it was recommended and I am so glad we did. The room was delightful and the breakfast was delicious. Jim made us feel... More

My first stay at Bon Vista, last year, happened by accident. After failing to find anywhere to stay near Fakenham I decided to drive to the coast and try my luck there. Bon Vista looked as good as any other B&B and appeared to have vacancies so I decided to give it a go. I couldn't have made a better... More

Our family visited Bon Vista over Easter and they were kind enough to put us up for one night. We had a double room with a camp bed for our child. The room was very cramped and we had a small ensuite. Sorry to say the mattress was awful and our child's duvet had a huge dried bogie on it!... More

Hi thank you for your review. It was not really what I expected. When you go out of your way to accommodate someone explain to them that the room does not normally have a put up bed and that it will be cramped you don't expect them to moan about it. This has certainly taught me a lesson about human... More

Just come back from a 3 night stay at Bon Vista. Very clean and comfortable room with a good en-suite shower. Lovely breakfast. Jim and Tina very friendly and made us feel welcome. Have stayed in a few b&bs in Cromer over the years and this is the best by far. Will hopefully stay again soon!

We had a lovely stay at the Bon Vista. The hospitality of Jim & Tina was second to none (and so was the breakfast! Yum). The rooms are very comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated. Can't wait to stay again. Thankyou Jim & Tina.
