What a wonderful weekend spent in this beautiful lodge in the norfolk broads . The pictures do not do this place justice it is beautifully furnished and decorated and so comfortable. We came for two nights with my friends and parents and had lovely relaxing evenings sitting round fireplace playing board games. I arranged a boat trip with the host Andrew for the saturday in the cruiser boat for 4 hours which was worth every penny it was pouring with rain but didnt spoil our fun we enjoyed seeing the views and hearing about the local area from andrew . Just a note hear to say andrew could not do enough for you making you feel welcome, answering any questions , easy to reach if you needed anything ...just a perfect host 👌 will absolutly visit again in the spring or summer !
This was an amazing property with everything needed and all to a very high standard. 8 ladies stayed for a birthday weekend and had a fantastic weekend. The owners are a lovely couple and very helpful. Our boat trip was fantastic- would definitely recommend a stay here .
