    Excellent location and such a cute cottage. Immaculately clean and well stocked with all the items we could possibly need. Exactly what we were hoping for.

    we didn’t actually stay in the property above, but given a much bigger cottage next door. We had lots of space, the cottage was very old and decorated in keeping with its age. I loved the kitchen, in fact I loved all of it.

    Lovely presented cottage, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. Good location to the village pubs and cafe, and the bus into Norwich.
