  Spacious and total comfort

  Left on 12/06/2012 for a stay in September 2012
  
  

  We were greeted in a friendly yet non-invasive way and had a nice selection of groceries left for our use. The cottage looked new and pristine and we felt at home and comfortable straight away with many books and DVD for our use if required.
  We had a very peaceful stay and enjoyed the shared garden and the local wildlife, especially seeing deer out of the window while having breakfast.
  The cottage is in an ideal position for fishing and walking.
  I would certainly recommend this to all. My thanks to the caring owners too.

  First class accommodation

  Left on 10/24/2012 for a stay in August 2012
  
  

  This is a fantastic holiday cottage; its photographs do not do it justice! From outside and from the details shown it looks quite tiny - it is beautiful; very spacious with everything you could ask for and, if it wasn't there we only had to ask - not that we needed to.
  The location was quiet yet easily accessible with good road links to the many local towns, villages and attractions. The area is crammed with things to do, so much so that we ran out of time in one week! The owners were very helpful and knowledgable about their area without being intrusive in any way. We could not find any fault and would love to go back again soon.

  Beautiful cottage in beautiful surroundings.

  Left on 09/26/2011 for a stay in June 2011
  
  

  The owners were most welcoming with many unexpected extras. Nothing was too much trouble for them,they were most accomodating. The cottage had everything, and more, that you would need for your stay. The location was perfect for touring the area, whether you wanted a trip to the north or east coast or to the many places of interest inland. There were also many lovely walks around the lanes/roads nearby to unwind in the evenings after a day sightseeing. The cottage is perfect for two who like to be able to see open fields whilst having breakfast. We could not think of anything negative to say about our stay, only that it was not long enough, but that is the fault of us not the cottage and its owners.

  First class accomodation

  Left on 01/13/2011 for a stay in November 2010
  
  

  Both myself and my husband were extremely pleased with the accomodation. It was impeccably clean, well laid out in beautiful surroundings. Nothing was too much for the owners and they even laid on some provisions. We had full use of the washer/dryer & freezer at no extra cost. I cannot fault this property at all. I have slight walking difficulties but found this cottage to be ideal.

  Exceptional

  Left on 12/18/2009 for a stay in August 2009
  
  

  Our stay here in August was our 2nd stay at this wondeful cottage.We were so impressed the 1st time we came back. The cottage was exceptionally clean,the furnishings lovely. We had the full use of a utility room with washer ,dryer,clothes maiden,freezer. The situation of the Little Lodge was very pleasant with lots of wildlife on the doorstep. A good centre for visiting the Norfolk coast and not far from the Park and Ride for the city of Norwich,we even ventured into Suffolk visiting Bressingham Gardens.
  Best of all were the owners who did everything to make our stay enjoyable. The welcome pack was extensive.Replacement towels and bed linen were readily available. There was lots of DVDs to watch in the evenings.
  We would highly recommend this cottage.
