Lovely property

Very nice property, clean and comfortable. We stayed with our dog, and the paddock was excellent for him to have a safe run around in. We had a very enjoyable week there and would book again in the future.

Lovely property. Perfect garden for our dog

Before booking we read lots of very positive reviews. Just before going a really negative review came up which of course was a concern. However on arrival I realised that this negative review was completely unwarranted in our view. The garden was extremely safe for our sight hound. In fact she happily sat outside looking over the fields. The owner had asked us if we would like the chickens and ducks moved further down when she knew we had a dog. As we didn’t know how our dog would react we asked for them to be moved. They were before our arrival. The cottage was spotless There was a lovely welcome pack. We asked for ideas for places to visit and these were sent to us. We went to Hunstanton old beach which was perfect with the dog. We also went to Oxburgh hall which was a nice day out. All communication with the hosts was promptly replied to and they were welcoming. Had a great short break and we’re glad we booked the little owls nest.

Wouldn’t recommend or stay again left after 15 minutes

The owner said secure back garden and offlead area. I knew the offlead area wasn’t secure but it turned out that it was actually just the back garden, not back door only a front door in use which is unsafe and a fire hazard. Also chickens in the garden which they didn’t inform me as had I known it didn’t have a secure back garden and had chickens I wouldn’t have booked it.

Would recommend

The cottage was clean and everything you need for a holiday was provided. We had no issues at all! It would have been nice if some of the windows provided a view of the outside but that's an architectural issue I suppose!

Lovely barn in beautiful location.

Lovely place to stay. We visited the area to visit family and friends. Plenty of places to explore and some great restaurants too. It was lovely to come back to the barn at the end of the day and relax. Very comfortable. Thanks.

Absolute ideal location to relax and unwind

From driving to the location and upon our arrival, I was absolutely gobsmacked by the vastness and the quiet, peaceful and serene location of the property. The property itself was superb and both very clean and very well equipped. I am so looking forward to booking this gorgeous property again in the not too distant future. So many great reviews this property has had and I am not at all suprised !!!! Very lucky to live in this part of the country.

Comfortable cottage, nice rural location

This cottage was perfect for our needs as a mature couple. Siutated in a good location and so near to lots of local attractions in all directions. Would have been nice to have met our hosts. The welcome treats were a lovely touch, thank you. The fresh eggs available to buy for travellers was an added bonus.

Wonderfully quiet, peaceful and spotlessly clean

This property was exactly as described. We arrived to find tea, coffee, wine and cake waiting for us in a sparklingly clean holiday home. Indeed, we have stayed in many, many cottages/holiday homes over the years and we are extremely fussy - especially with regards to cleanliness, and this is the first where we felt able to just make a cup of tea without having to wash the crockery first. The cottage was spotless and sparkling. So gold stars all round! Leesa and David were very accommodating, taking our booking at very short notice and our stay was peaceful and relaxing. I would not hesitate in recommending thier property to others. Many thanks for a really lovely 12 days.
