The Wherry in Norwich is a well-regarded holiday cottage, praised for its beautiful location and abundant wildlife. Guests have enjoyed comfortable stays, with particular mention of the friendly heron, and have often rebooked. While some minor issues with maintenance and the lack of WiFi were noted, the overall experience was positive, with the cleanliness and views being highlights.

The cottage is consistently described as very clean, with guests expressing satisfaction and intending to return, indicating high standards of cleanliness.

The location is highly praised for its lovely views and proximity to wildlife, making it a standout feature of the property.

Guests found the cottage comfortable and cosy, although there were some comments about heating control restrictions, suggesting room for improvement.

The property is generally well-equipped, but comments about the need for maintenance and the absence of WiFi suggest that the facilities could be enhanced.

There are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches provided by the host, so it is not possible to assess thoughtfulness in this context.

    Another great holiday at the Wherry. Lovely views and the Heron was a bonus, we called him Henry and he was there everyday and took fish from the husbands hand. One thing would suggest is that if you go in the winter months take wellies as the road and driveway has a tendency to flood a little when the weather is bad.Have already booked for next year.
