We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Wagtail Lodge. The location is ideal for exploring the North East Norfolk region. It was a very comfortable stay and everything that we needed was available in the cottage, the welcome pack was especially enjoyed. Thank you to the owners for making us feel so welcome.

A very comfortable cosy cottage in a peaceful location. The owners have kitted it out in a very homely way and they are extremely hospitable and helpful, but not intrusive. We have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the local area. Would definitely recommend and would come back.
