A comfortable stay. Spacious house and good location. Providing own towels and shower mats was extra packing and washing and stripping beds was extra unnecessary task. Think it should be all included in the price. However an enjoyable weeks stay with the family.

We had everything we needed and the Owner was very helpful. The single bed in the left hand side room at the back of the house is more suitable for a child. I am very light so it was reasonable for me.

Thank you for the review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay in Manningham House and felt the house was well equipped for your requirements. It is worth noting that each single room has a standard sized single bed as indicated in the Vrbo house description, not a child’s sized single. Both are solid John Lewis beds with wooden frames.

Returning guest

We stayed in this property 2 years ago and decided to return as we wanted to visit Sandringham. The property was in fantastic condition and the on suite bathroom had been replaced since the previous visit which was a pleasant surprise. Overall a lovely peaceful place for a short break with a fantastic pub across the road.

Perfect 4 Night Break

We've stayed in a nearby village several times before but the property owner sold up. We are a family of 5 (4 are 18 plus) so can struggle to find somewhere big enough. After much searching, we found Manningham House as an alternative but were still a bit nervous...we shouldn't have been! The house is lovely and spotless! If you are looking for somewhere quiet and secluded, the location is great too! Liz (the owner) was really helpful and communication was bang on. We 100% intend to go back.

So pleased that Manningham House gave you a perfect break and that it was able to match your last holiday rental. As you did, other guests love the spaciousness which is not always evident in the description and photos. We are looking forward to welcoming you back!

About the host

Hosted by elizabeth cooke

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Essex but we love spending time in Norfolk. Ringstead is that hidden gem: close to the beaches but just off the coast road. Children and families all love it!

Why they chose this property

Norfolk is simply stunning! The huge expanses of sandy beaches never cease to amaze us. In winter they offer bracing walks and in the height of summer holidays they can still feel remote. Norfolk is known for its huge skies, often portrayed by local artists and photographers. The pubs, the farm shops, the fish shops all keep us well fed during our stay and the car goes back home laden with goodies for the following week. Manningham House used to be our regular weekend bolt hole from London as it is only just over two hours by car. Having moved to the countryside we still enjoy our visits to the most beautiful coastline in the UK!

What makes this property unique

The village of Ringstead is perfectly located: only 5-10 minutes from the beaches and coast road but also in the tranquility of the countryside. It is well catered for with a shop, pub, playground, antiques centre and garden centre - good for browsing. We always come away with something we never knew we needed! For those wanting a quiet time, the back garden of Manningham House is a suntrap and many an afternoon is spent having a bbq and wandering across to the pub.
