Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is consistently described as very clean and well-presented, with numerous guests highlighting its spotlessness. This suggests a high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is often described as beautiful and convenient for exploring Norfolk, with the property situated in a breath-taking spot. The proximity to local attractions and the countryside setting contribute to a positive experience.
While many guests find the beds comfortable and the property spacious, there are a few mentions of poor mattress quality and a need for better curtains. These isolated comments suggest that while comfort is generally high, there is room for improvement.
Facilities like the hot tub, kitchen, and communal spaces are well-received, but some guests report issues with hot water, heating, and shower pressure. Maintenance concerns slightly detract from an otherwise excellent rating.
Guests frequently mention the welcome hamper and other thoughtful touches, indicating that the hosts go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. However, it should be noted that such gestures, while common, are not guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
Situated on the outskirts of Mattishall village, Heath Cottage dates back to 1650 and has been lovingly restored and extended to offer a country escape with a hot tub for up to eight guests.
If you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle, Heath Cottage puts you at the heart of the countryside, with plenty of local footpaths and bridleways to explore across acres of fields and farm land. Despite the feeling of being away from it all, the cottage is on the outskirts of the village of Mattishall, and you’re within easy reach of some of Norfolk’s most historic towns, including Dereham and Wymondham. The county town of Norwich is also just a 20-minute drive away.
Inside this semi-detached cottage, you’ll find plenty of room for you to all relax and enjoy your time away. There’s a sitting room with a wood burning stove to keep you cosy in the cooler months, along with a separate snug and a sitting area in the kitchen too. Two of the bedrooms have zip and link beds that can be converted to twin beds if required.
Despite being thoroughly and tastefully renovated, the property has retained many of its period charms, including its wooden beams. The delightful, enclosed garden is accessible from bifold doors in the kitchen. On a sunny day, there’s nothing better than to open the doors fully and enjoy life al fresco on the terrace, complete with hot tub and table tennis, surrounded by the birdsong.
