We had a couple of issues. One of our party is a pianist (which had been planned that he played as part of our celebration) and the piano had not been tuned in years! We lost internet connection (which had nothing to do with the property) but it kicked out the boiler via the Hive and our 2nd day plans were semi ruined as we had no heating or hot water till the afternoon which was too late for our planned lunch with local friends. However when we raised these issues we received a relatively priced refund but I had to chase it once.

Great place for a family gathering. Lovely long table and good quality tableware including nice wine glasses and loads of cutlery and crockery. Young people pleased with technology including large tvs and exciting fridge! Delighted to find car charging point. We will be back!

Delightful barn conversion with lots of space and facilities. BBQ and garden very pretty with lots of mature trees. The owners have thought of lots of little touches to increase comfort at the property e.g throws and candles, magazines and games, lots of stock items in the larder. I haven't cooked much on an AGA before but it was very easy and quick. The location on the edge of the Norfolk Broards meant we could access the waters, the North coast and the East coast too. We had a day in Southwold and walked, boated and cycled so plenty to do - we had hoped to have a few wet days to justify spending more time indoors!
