Thank you Cate. We had a lovely stay in the Snuff box. Everything was clean and comfortable. Ideal for Stradsett Steam Rally. Thank you for the thoughtful welcome box and also dog treats and poo bags. Lovely cottage and enclosed garden with plenty of room for Dexta to run in. Enjoyed the ferry across to King's Lynn.

The cottage was excellent , and in a good position for the coast or countryside. Well equipped and clean and comfortable even the dog was catered for, the one little niggle was the garden was not fully enclosed at the side and front so we had to be aware of where the dog was in the garden at all times . The owner was aware of water works being done while we were there and supplied us with plenty of bottled water even though in the end we didn't need it.
