Great location.

Cottage was excellent, and the garden was secure. 3 minute walk from the Lion Inn, which was very dog friendly. The river again was only 3 minute walk away. Lovely walks around the area. 4 adults and 3 dogs, where we never felt hemmed in, as the cottage easily accommodated us all.

WOW

What a wonderful relaxing week we spent at broads cottage. Our 17 year old grandson said he had never felt so chilled, which is high praise indeed. Local pub/restaurant on the doorstep which we frequented often! Lovely walks nearby, the dogs had a field day We found the before and after photos of the renovation very interesting

lovely break

Really enjoyed our week at this beautifully renovated cottage. Walking the dogs by the marina was a treat for them and us. Local beaches in easy reach by car and many were almost empty and dog friendly. A perfect location for a week away in early autumn

Great cottage great location

Lovely cottage 2 mins walk from the Norfolk Broads. Well equipped & spacious lovely little garden for our dog's to enjoy however the road outside was busy at times but parking within the garden was a plus and great for loading and unloading the dogs away from road. There was one little issue with the tap in the kitchen which mark resolved promptly. WiFi was not the best but I guess that's because of the village location. Lots of great walks from the doorstep for the dogs and we found a couple of walks were the dogs could have a free off lead run. Lots of Beaches are all within 15 mins drive, we loved staying in Norfolk and everything it offered for us and the 6 dogs

Thank you so much for your kind comments about the cottage – we’re delighted you enjoyed your stay. We did notice your score for value for money and just wanted to explain a little. Our cottages are priced for the property as a whole, rather than per guest, since many of the running costs are the same whether 2 people or 6 people are staying. This means it can feel more expensive on a per-person basis when a smaller group chooses to book a larger cottage. We hope this helps to clarify, and we’re really pleased you made the most of your time here and would love to welcome you back. There is a repeat guest discount code we have sent to you for any future bookings and we have various discounts available that may help with the value score if you book a larger property with us in the future.
