    We have all been coming to Norfolk for many years and this is by far the best house we have stayed in. We have had a lovely time, and look forward to returning next year.

  • K & Family

    The property was one of the best furnished and equipped holiday homes we have stayed in.Very comfortable and excellent location.

    Lovely house, good location. We bought a bathmat for the downstairs shower (for the old people!) and have left for future use. Saw deer in the garden. Snettisham Farm worth a visit for the deer ride on a tractor. Briarsfield has nice playground for children. Food is ok, as are most of the restaurants in the area. Thank you.
