The cottage was in a lovely location. Easy to walk into Wroxham town centre. It was clean and beds were comfy. However, some of the decor and furnishings were dated and worn. The showers were not great ( the bathrooms could do with refurbishing) and downstairs bedrooms were a bit chilly. But for a long weekend it was perfectly adequate as we were out for most of the day/ evening. The views from the lounge window were lovely. It was a good base to travel into Norwich from. Highly recommend the Waterside Restaurant. We had a delicious Sunday roast there.

Great value for money in a very spacious house. Some of the appliances, fixtures and fittings are a bit dated but all in all very good accommodation for 3 blokes working away from home at a very reasonable price.
