Luckily we stopped for some milk. All the cottages we have stayed in have always left milk, tea, coffee often bread or biscuits.

Comfortable furniture. Advertisement doesnât show that the cottage is actually above someoneâs garage. Wouldnât recommend to anyone looking for a private location as owners are right next door and you can see into each otherâs accommodation. The notes and instructions are excessive. Presumably the wifi is the owners home wifi, the signal is very weak and can not be reached upstairs.

Light, warm and airy. Well equipped. A delightful base for exploring north-west Norfolk.
