Guests say

Westfield is a charming, peaceful woodland retreat, much loved by guests for its tranquil setting, abundant wildlife, and well-equipped, homely atmosphere. Visitors appreciate the extensive garden, thoughtful touches, and the property's suitability for families and dog owners. The location offers excellent walks and easy access to Yarmouth, though the rough access track may not suit everyone. While most find the cottage cosy and clean, a few mention maintenance issues and comfort concerns with beds. Overall, guests enjoy a relaxing and memorable stay, with many eager to return.

Most guests found the property clean and well-presented, with several specifically praising its cleanliness. A few minor comments about sooty glass on the log burner and a general sense of being 'a bit run down' were noted, but these were outweighed by positive remarks.

The peaceful, secluded woodland setting is highly praised, with guests enjoying the tranquillity, wildlife, and proximity to walks and Yarmouth. The only recurring negative is the rough, muddy access track, which some found challenging, especially in wet weather.

Guests generally found the cottage cosy and warm, but several mentioned issues with bed comfort, including hard or soft mattresses and noisy beds. The upstairs lounge and overall homely feel were appreciated, though some maintenance issues affected comfort for a few.

The property is described as very well-equipped, especially for families and children, with books, toys, games, and kitchenware. However, some guests noted missing items (e.g., microwave, can opener), minor equipment faults, and maintenance issues such as non-working lights or radiators.

Guests frequently mention thoughtful touches such as spare batteries, chargers, a spice drawer, welcome packs, and even peanuts for squirrels. While these gestures are much appreciated, please note that such gifts or extras are not guaranteed for every stay.
