The accommodation is of a high standard and has everything you need for a perfect break. We made good use of the Hot tub in the afternoons after visiting the sea and inland attractions. Oak Tree Lodge's owners were friendly and helpful and I would recommend the lodge to anyone who wants to explore Norfolk.

The owners were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The hot tub was immaculately maintained, the kitchen contents were very generous more than enough for six people self catering. No complaints whatsoever.
