Mr Rawlings
A charming cottage tastefully and comfortably appointed in a very pleasant quiet location.The best we have stayed in and it was excellent in terms the basics such as cups, saucers, mugs , glasses and cutlery in general. In addition it was very refreshing to have a plentiful supply of items for instance as dishwasher tablets, kitchen roll and washing up liquid. Beds very comfortable and heating extremely efficient. Cannot do other than fully recommend Dolphin Cottage.

The cottage was very well furnished with good quality linens. The kitchen was very well stocked. The cottage was ideally placed for many of the coastal villages and it was good to have the Wiveton Bell within five minutes walk.
