We had a lovely stay at the cottage and the children loved trying the dinghies. It was a complete break from WiFi, which is exactly what we wanted. A moment to breathe and enjoy nature. We saw foxes, rabbits, a barn owl and deer among other animals. The owners were friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed using the electricity meters, which made us more aware of our energy usage. We definitely want to go back next year and would recommend.

What a great way to start a holiday superb directions. A Beautiful place, 3 bedrooms (1 twin, 1 single 1 double) all with more than ample wardrobe space and storage, very comfortable. The Kitchen was a great surprise as it was bigger than expected for a cottage, very well stocked with utensils a large fridge/freezer microwave washing machine oven and hob, all clean and very useable. I Love to fish and my wife loves to read books, this place suited us both :) we had great riverside garden where we spent a great deal of time. There are many places to walk, Waxham Beach is a nice walk(20 mins) steady pace. Go see the Seals. Sea Palling was a hidden gem with Fish and chips(Very Nice and reasonable price) a small amusement arcade and the Lifeboat Tavern and outside seating area. I would say if walking around this area please wear hi-viz as roads are narrow with no Pavements. Wroxham and Potter Heigham are close. we were told of some great walks without even leaving the Property. Wonderful.I Asked what if someone askes what we were doing there the reply was" Just tell them your staying with Gary , it will be ok" .Gary , What can i say Legend of a man. Thank you for pointing out so much wildlife i would have missed Made our stay very easy. Thank you.
