It was a nice cottage but the access road was almost impassable. The shower was inaccessible and the furniture was very uncomfortable.

Very welcoming cottage, very well equipped and comfortable. Ideal for dogs as the garden is all fenced in. Perfectly situated for discovering Suffolk and Norfolk.

We received a warm welcome . The accommodation is brilliantly located to explore the river waveney or the nearby dog friendly beaches. It feels a bit of a work in progress. We had pegs but nowhere to peg wet swim stuff. A clothesmade would be handy. The single bedroom consisted of a bed- that's it . A shelf (as not much room for bedside table) Read moremaybe a lamp, with nowhere to put clothes. We has a thoughtful welcome hamper, crisps , biscuits, pear juice and fresh (?) Coffee but not cafetiere or percolator to try it. Having said all that, we enjoyed our break, and the dogs appreciated the enclosed garden with walks from the door. Hide

Clean, comfortable and well-sited for visits to the beach and the Broads/museums/local pubs for dinner. Thoroughly recommended.
