Chimney Springs suits us very well, as a holiday location with easy access to the Eastern Broads. As I have limited mobility, a bungalow is ideal, and there are a very nice garden and sunroom for those days when we don't wish to stray far. This was our third holiday at Chimney Springs and we hope it will not be the last.

As always a lovely stay in a beautiful Bungalow. Fully equipped with everything a Family could need. The garden is amazing . Spoilt for places to sit out in it. Can’t wait for our next stay. Jenny and Allan Davy.

A wonderful bungalow with a fabulous enclosed garden for the dogs who loved exploring it. The bungalow had every amenity possible and nothing lacked in the kitchen. The village has a wonderful local spar with a free cash machine and a fabulous Chinese just a short walk into the village .There is Also a pub and Indian but didn't sample them. Went to hemsby for fish and chips which is only a mile away. There is a fantastic farm shop a few hundred metres from the bungalow that does lots of fresh local produce and there is a cafe there as well which is always packed. Yarmouth is a short drive away for a larger food shop and you are close to caistor and hemsby beaches . Overall a brilliant stay would definitely return again in the future.
