Summary: Lovely cottage with views of the lake, lots of games, dvd's etc.No wifi but not a problem for us. Saw our first ever kingfisher through the lounge window!
Renee S. Sep 25, 2024 07:13:12 PM
Summary: Great location in a beautiful setting. Very poor signal on the mobile and no broadband but knew that anyway. Second time I’ve stayed. A bit of updating with decor as a bit tired but overall met our needs.

Summary: Nice place, could do with another cupboard to put your food in. The mattress was appallingly uncomfortable/cheap. I like the place/location but will not return due to the bed. ,

Summary: We had a lovely stay here, it’s very homely and the lake outside is beautiful. We enjoyed sitting outside lots and listening to the wildlife. The cottage is the perfect size for a small family and within driving distance to a lot of places. We will definitely be staying here again, thank you :)

Summary: The house is beautifully situated between the Broads and the north Norfolk coast, both within easy reach although the house is location is quiet and out of the way. The lake at the rear of the house is lovely and we saw frogs, newts and a kingfisher during our stay. The house itself is well-equipped and comfortable. I see other reviewers had issues with hot water but we had no problems. Lack of wifi is not a problem for us and we knew there would be none before we got to the house, but we also had no mobile signal and 4G which meant that while we were in East Ruston we were completely uncontactable which was more of a concern. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay, thank you!

Summary: Clean and simple holiday home, with patio with an absolutely stunning view. Ducks, swans, geese and even a heron occupy the lake in front of a pretty tree screen. Ample books and video library for more than a two week stay. Location is excellent for walks or visits to stately homes and idyllic villages. We left an ordnance survey map of the area for the benefit of future occupants. Suggestion: share a WIFI service with the neighbours, as non access to the web was a challenge.

Summary: Beautiful location. Didn’t appreciate walking through face height cobwebs throughout the property. After previous reviews stating issues trying to get hot water we understood this to have been addressed, however, there was no hot water and no guidance. We eventually sussed things out but a bit of concern initially. Nice homely and comfortable place to stay.
