The cottage was perfect and delightful with the house being very picturesque with plenty of internal room and two bathrooms. Also the pub almost opposite the cottage was a good watering hole and the food was good.The location was ideal for exploring the Norfolk Broads and we clocked up many miles (both on land and on the rivers) and visited plenty of places. The beaches were magnificent and towns like Norwich with its Cathedral, Cromer, Great Yarmouth and Caister-on-sea did not fail. National Trust places we visited were quite magnificent and a trip to Sandringham is a must.For 8 days we packed in many trips and the cottage always provided a haven for tired travellers. A great time and a super cottage.

We have stayed here before and enjoyed it. A bit of a bugbear on this trip was the creaking and stretching of the building at night which was sufficient to wake us.

A lovely dog and people friendly place.

Had a great week staying in this house. It's set up well with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The area has terrific dog walks, either across the countryside, the dunes or gorgeous beaches. In fact, the whole town seems to have dogs !

Wow - what a beautiful place to stay! We loved our time here, especially how comfy the beds are and how close it was to the beach! Really swift response from the team when required and loved the detailed book. We also hired a boat down on the Broads which i highly recommend!

Perfect location, but not ideal

The property location is ideal in a small village close to the beach. Cleanliness in the bathrooms and kitchen was very good, however the living rooms had a doggy smell which was engrained into the furnishings.
