“Broadband birthday break and Norwich race”
Large cottage in peaceful location able to accommodate family groups and great for a family celebration. Easy access to the Broads and surrounding areas including Norwich. Plenty of good places to visit and to eat out. We all enjoyed the view at the rear of cottage and the peace and quiet. One of the group spent the four days fishing! Hope to return next year maybe in the spring. The owners were extremely helpful and courteous.

“Annual weekend away”
Fabulous house in a beautiful location. Facilities are great, although a little dated, but more than adequate, in fact in their day would definitely have been luxurious! Kitchen, lounge & dining are fantastic spaces and definitely fit for a larger gathering. Only complaint is that the sofa sections are not secured and therefore have a tendency to separate if you sit on a join. Would definitely recommend this property & are considering a return visit next year. If you’re visiting in December then a trip to the Cromer Christmas Show is a must!
