  Green Farm Barn December 2024. Great stay, much enjoyed. Property comfortable, clean and spacious. Wi-Fi excellent. December booking and the Barn was warm enough when thermostat had been located. Bring cleaning products, kitchen roll, shower gel etc. Note the Nespresso machine takes Vertuo capsules (not available to buy locally). Note for dogs owners that the boundary from property to adjacent field is not fenced, but local Covehithe beach is a joy for dogs to run! Read on for caveat re the property letting agency.. Clause 3 of the Booking Ts&Cs enables the Owner/Agent to make changes to your booking. For example I booked and paid my deposit for a 14 day stay over Christmas and New Year. 6 weeks prior to start I received an email from the agency saying that the owner wanted the property for the last 4 days therefore I could only have it for 10 days - or otherwise I could cancel my holiday arrangements and have my deposit returned. Trying to find out an explanation entailed speaking to many different customer representatives as the agency is one of several which I believe have Travel Chapter as the umbrella company. However I had to cut short my holiday and change the arrangements I had made for New Year. Needless to say if you the paying client needs to make any change to the contract then you will pay heavily for it.

  A delightful, warm and cosy lodge. Very clean with a very well equipped kitchen. The location on Kelling Heath Park was perfect, just about 200 meters from all facilities, including the leisure pool and pub, which served excellent food and drink, albeit a little expensive, No wifi in the lodge, which was a little disappointing, but it is available in the Pub area. A good selection of games, and videos for the DVD player. Right from your doorstep is a wonderful array of woodland walks and nature trails of various lengths. The paths are wide and largely flat and suitable for pushchairs, wheelchairs and mobility scooters. The overall location is close to the sea side towns Cromer and Sheringham. Sheringham Park is worth a visit. We had a lovely few days at Bacton and Happisburgh Beach and did a couple of bracing coastal walks. Overall a wonderful, relaxing stay for couples or family.

  Having been regular - one might even say loyal - customers at Durdans for several years now we are sad to find the standard of maintenance leaves more and more to be desired.

  Nearly all of the fridge door shelves are now broken, as they have been for at least 2 years, so it is impossible to keep a bottle of milk in the fridge. The Venetian blinds in the en-suite bathroom don’t work and the curtains in the master bedroom need rehanging. The drain outside the kitchen is blocked so the waste water from the sink just flows out onto the drive. None of these are serious deficiencies (although not being able to keep milk in the fridge is seriously annoying!) but they do make Durdans feel rather unloved, and its guests accordingly rather underappreciated . We also arrived to find no tea towels and no oven gloves (we had to go and buy a pair of oven gloves, and fortunately we brought our own tea towels as there are never enough, but to find none at all is really not on). With a heavy heart, I think we may be moving on next year.

  The cottage was beautiful and in the perfect location with the beach being a 5 min walk away. Cromer town centre was 1 min down the road and there were several lovely cafes and a Co-op literally round the corner. The bed was also the most comfy thing I’ve ever slept on, it was honestly divine! My daughter enjoyed the bunk beds in the second bedroom and also complimented them on being extremely comfortable. The only reason for not giving a 5 star on everything was that the stairs are so tightly curved and extremely narrow that I was scared to come down them whilst carrying anything, which made things slightly difficult, but we did get more used to them by the end of the week, lol! Overall, an absolute gem of a holiday cottage and one that we will most definitely be coming back to ??

  Despite a couple of issues we had a very nice time at Green Farm Barn. It's very spacious and comfortably furnished. We stayed with another couple and there was plenty of space to spread out. Quiet except when person in house close by roared out of the drive loudly in a sports car. Plenty of outside space and lots of board games provided. Good location for exploring a lovely part of Suffolk with plenty of nice places and pubs close by. Would recommend but take a few bits with you e.g washing up liquid, anti -bac spray and extra towels and loo rolls.
