Church Cottage in Catfield, Norfolk, is praised for its comfortable, well-equipped interiors and tranquil, wildlife-friendly garden. Its peaceful location offers easy access to local attractions, making it ideal for a relaxing stay. Guests appreciate the cosy atmosphere, the well-stocked kitchen, and the garden's appeal to both children and pets.
The cottage is generally described as clean, with well-equipped kitchen facilities. However, a few reviews mention a smell of sour milk in the fridge area and a strong damp smell throughout the property, which suggests room for improvement in this category.
The location is highly praised for its tranquility and easy access to local attractions, including the Norfolk Broads and the coast. The peaceful setting opposite a church and the proximity to nature trails contribute to its high score.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with cosy beds and a relaxing atmosphere. However, some concerns about the steep staircase to one bedroom and the interlinked bedroom arrangement slightly lower the score.
The property is well-stocked and equipped, with a good kitchen and garden facilities. However, issues with dampness, heating, and maintenance of certain areas, such as the steep staircase and the presence of mould, indicate a need for attention to facilities and maintenance.

Beautiful thatched cottage within a stones throw of the Norfolk Broads and the sandy beaches of the east coast.
Church Cottage is a picturesque cottage nestling in the quaint village of Catfield which is perfectly placed for a holiday exploring the Norfolk Broads. Families can relax and unwind in this quaint cottage which is full of character and charm. There is a garden for the little ones to run off steam. Conveniently located north of Barton Broad and just south of Hickling Broad there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy all this area has to offer. Take a boat out for a day or two and relax whilst you bask in fresh air and beautiful scenery. Head upstream along the 'Ant' from Ludham and stop off at How Hill to stretch your legs or have a picnic, or cruise a little further to Sutton and visit the Museum of the Broads which is accessible by boat or road. At Hickling there are plenty of opportunities to bird watch or walk. The beautiful beaches of the east coast are only a stones throw away and well worth a visit if you like sandcastle building or splashing about in the waves, Seals are often spotted bobbing about off the coastline in this area.
