Located within the pretty village of Hickling the property offers comfortable, cosy and family friendly accommodation. With the Broads National Park on its doorstep this cottage is at the heart of a beautiful area for exploration.

Mr Wiltshire
A really well equipped and cosy cottage. The location is perfect for exploring the Broads and the east coast. The village is very peaceful with an added bonus of a traditional (friendly) pub. All in all, an excellent place to stay.

Mrs Rooke
We loved this cottage, it was well presented and clean and comfortable. Lovely quiet location, close to NWT nature reserve on Hickling Broad and also not far from the local beaches. Saw hares and muntjac in the surrounding fields. Within walking distance of local pub.

Mr Mitchinson
Lovely, spacious, comfortable, well equipped and generously provisioned cottage in peaceful and beautiful location within easy reach of a number of Broads and the coast for superb walking and bird and seal watching. An excellent place to stay, well located to easily visit the Broads, North Norfolk coast, Norwich and South Norfolk/North Suffolk and a short walk to Hickling Broad nature reserve (fantastic).. Beautiful, peaceful garden to sit in at the end of a day's walking. A superb cottage.
