The cottages were very well restored and furnished. The dog proofing and walks for dogs was excellent. The owner was incredibly helpful and the location lovely. One or two of the doors are quite low, the 2 tallest men bashed their heads a couple of times.

Fantastic property for those with dogs. Walks from the door and the owner even provided a crate. Lovely welcome gift of eggs and local lemon gin. The owner met us on arrival and was approachable for anything throughout our stay. Lovely peaceful setting and only a 5 minute drive from Dereham. A great choice. I can highly recommend.
