I would describe my stay at Kingfisher cabin as 'Paradise Found' what a gem location; peaceful and not overlooked. The two massive wind turbines in an adjacent field presented no noise problems' in fact the only noise throughout the week were from the Canada and Greylag Geese that frequented the beautiful lake on the doorstep of the cabin. The cabin was well appointed and the owners left us a welcome pack (thank you). Past visitor experience reports mentioned that the sofas provided were uncomfortable? I found no such issue with either (two matching sofas) also someone mentioned the double bed was uncomfortable (the mattress was indeed hard, however I came prepared by bringing a mattress topper which proved perfect. The smart tv provided works well, however no DVD was present, though advertised. There is no shaver socket provided. A sort drive brings you into Burgh le Marsh that provides a well stocked Co-Op and also five pub/restaurants.

Our stay was absolutely fantastic. The cabin was clean and comfortable and the scenery was wonderful.There are plenty of nice pubs and other places to eat nearby, many of which are within walking distance if are not in a hurry.The hosts left us some nice treats which were a pleasant surprise when we arrived.We spent each evening in the hot tub watching the stars and I cannot remember the last time I felt so relaxed. The day we returned home we were already booking our return visit.
