The only bad part is you have to leave! We had a wonderful time. If you love nature and wildlife it’s all there. All amenities are local. Beautiful walks, on top of the Norfolk broad a perfect setting. Our holidays also revolve around our dogs and this location and cottage is very much dog friendly

A great place to stay if you like a quiet, restful holiday. Lots of wildlife to see and great for walking the dog straight from the cottage. We can recommend the cottage for a peaceful break. Definitely worth a repeat booking!
