There was ample room for us all (a family of 7 plus a large dog) and it had ground floor facilities which were accessible ( bedroom, shower, toilet). The house was well equipped with everything we needed especially the kitchen. The welcome pack was very much appreciated after our 6 hour journey! We were warmly introduced to the house and learned of its history and a bit about the area. As well as relaxing at the house we found it was a great location we visited Norwich, Yarmouth, Wroxham and other lovely places. A really great relaxing house.

. The place itself was fabulous and the grounds and gardens and lakes are amazing.Would recommend as long as the hot water is running properly. The fresh eggs from Jennyâs chicks was a great touch and she even brought us some more when requested! Shame about the water! Would have been a much better score.
