A very nice bungalow with all we needed for our stay. Very clean and a generous welcome pack. Although the property is situated in an area with a lot of bungalows, we found it very peaceful and quiet. The fully enclosed garden was ideal for our retired Greyhound, with a grassy lane just around the corner for morning and evening walks.We were also not far from shops, dog friendly pubs or the Broads. Great.
