Super cosy cottage. Really well equipped. Lovely comfy three piece suite. Pleasant walks from the garden. Good location to explore North Norfolk. Quiet roads and easy access to all the beaches and sights. Dereham only a mile down the road, very nice little town with everything you would need.

The property suited us well as we had family history work to do in Scarning itself and we also wanted access to Norwich and Downham Market and to the north Norfolk coast which we love. So for us the location was perfect and the tiredness of much of the property's furnishings weren't a problem.

We had a great week here . Everything you need is there. Garden is huge & dog friendly & the walks out the back are lovely. Being so far in land it's more fore walkers & cycling & if you like long runs out you can get to the beach in 45 mins which we did on three separate occasions. All round it really good.

Amazing cottage , very spacious very traditional but homely, we loved it, had everything we needed. Heather was a lovely lady who popped over in the rain to say welcome and to wish us a nice holiday. Garden was brilliant for the boys, plenty big enough and we didn't need car to go for walks , definitely on my list to go back to.

The cottage was in a lovely quiet lane. Well equipped and comfortable beds. A lovely big enclosed garden to enjoy and we were so lucky with the weather for October. Was able to sit out on patio on the evening and look at the stars and hear the owls. Saw buzzards flying overhead on our woodland walk out through the back gate. Central for lots of attRead moreractions. Great Yarmouth, Oxburgh Hall and Gardens well worth a visit, also Castle Acre Priory. Dereham has lots of shops. Would love to come back. Hide

The cottage could be lovely, the kitchen is really well equipped. The rest of the cottage could do with having the carpets replaced. When I spoke to the owner she said that they have had a lot of dogs in the last five months. There are holes in the patio that need filling in as they are quite large and a chair leg could easily go down it.

An absolute gem! Although right by the road/lane, there are just 2 houses even in the summer with a caravan site nearby, it would still be secluded as it stands on its own private plot. The bungalow is surprisingly spacious. It comes with just about everything you need - a home away from home (literally). Very large garden which is fully enclosed.
