"We just got back from a really nice four-night stay at this place. The owners are super friendly and helpful, but theyre not overbearing, which we appreciated. The fenced garden was perfect for our dog to run around safely. The cottage had everything we needed and we even enjoyed a BBQ one evening. The hot tub was fantastic! Wed definitely come back and already recommended it to friends. Thanks for a lovely break!"

"We had such a great stay! The lodge was spotless and super comfy. Everything we needed for a relaxing self-catering getaway was there. Perfect location too, surrounded by beautiful scenery. Highly recommend it!"

"Honestly, we were really impressed with how spotless everything was - its such a change from places that feel a bit neglected. The small business vibe really shows, as you can tell the owners genuinely care about your stay. Some small suggestions: having a second key would be handy and clearer instructions for the fire and boiler would help. Spare pillows and blankets would be a bonus and a dressing gown for the hot tub would be lovely. Also, itd be great if the fridge was turned on when we arrived and if there was a recycling bin provided. Overall, quite a lovely stay!"

"We stayed at the lodge recently and honestly, it was a lovely experience. The place looked almost br and new, super clean and everything was in perfect working order. The towels, linen and gowns provided were top-notch, making us feel really pampered. Its quite spacious too, which was great. The heating was easy to control, so we were always cosy and we loved the electric fire with the big TV and DVD player for chill-out evenings. The kitchen was well stocked, though with plates and cutlery for two, we didnt really need to use the dishwasher much. Overall, its a fantastic spot for two exploring Norfolk - wed definitely recommend it as a comfy base!"

"A great place to stay. The location is great and very central so nowhere is too far. The lodge had everything we needed, was really clean and beautifully presented. The hot tub was well used by us all. The only thing that we would like to see added is a couple of recliner type chairs at the back by the tub as it was the only shady spot! The owners were very welcoming and helpful."

Perfect for our family of 4 with a 7 and 4 year old and a great base for exploring the local area. The shop on site was great too and everything was spotlessly clean. Will be staying again and also will recommend to family and friends. Thanks for a great holiday!"
