Guests say
Stable Cottage 5 offers a spacious and well-located base for exploring Norfolk, with a standout swimming pool and charming farm setting featuring animals. Guests appreciate the friendly staff and the property's value for families. While the cottage is generally clean and nicely decorated, some maintenance issues and noise from neighbouring units have been noted. The location is peaceful yet convenient for days out, and the on-site facilities, especially the pool, are a highlight. With a little extra care and attention, this property could be truly exceptional.
Most guests found the cottage clean and tidy, though a few mentioned issues such as a dirty dishwasher and some areas needing a fresh coat of paint.
The property is praised for its peaceful rural setting and proximity to Norfolk attractions, beaches, and local pubs, making it ideal for exploring the area.
Guests enjoyed the spaciousness but reported some discomfort due to thin mattresses, creaky beds, and noise from upstairs units, which affected relaxation and sleep.
The swimming pool and farm animals are highlights, and the property is well-equipped for families. However, some maintenance issues (extractor fans, shower, freezer compartment) and unclear bike storage were noted.
Staff are described as friendly and helpful, and a welcome pack is provided, though it could be updated. Please note that gifts or welcome packs are not guaranteed.

Nicely decorated, great size property in a location which was fantastic for exploring round Norfolk. Excellent value. The fishing lakes are really lovely and the farm was a real pleasure. We very much enjoyed seeing the donkeys and goats as we swam in the immaculately kept pool. Hugely recommend for families.
