Christmas Cottages in Norfolk

What our customers say about their holidays

  North Norfolk is a favourite destination and I think The Cart Shed has now become our favourite accommodation!

  The owners have carried out a first class conversion from, as the name suggests, a farmyard store, to a cosy luxurious cottage for two. There was everything that you could ever need for a self-catering break and this is a property with all-year-round use with the provision of underfloor heating for those chilly evenings while in the summer months, full width glass doors provide uninterrupted views across the opposite meadow, with grazing sheep during our visit. Located down a quiet lane but easy to find and not far from main (for Norfolk!) roads, there's a tranquil atmosphere and the lack of traffic noise means that you can hear birdsong constantly, and little else. The owners, Jane and James live in the adjacent farmhouse and were always available although not needed but a very useful local area guidebook was a great help. All in all, a real gem and highly recommended.

  We received a very warm welcome from owners, Mary, Micheal, and friendly tail wags from Monty the dog, on our arrival at The Haven.

  They were so helpful during our stay and so were the friendly neighbors next door. The fresh flowers, along with the delicious homemade goodies, were a lovely touch. It was a most peaceful and relaxing break away at the Haven, and so enjoyed sitting on the private patio, in the pretty sun-soaked garden. The annex is a delightful retreat and within easy reach of the beaches, boating on The Norfolk Broads, local walks, pretty villages, and good pubs to dine at. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, and the kitchen was well equipped along with the light modern-decorated lounge too, which I'm sure would be very cozy with the wood burner in the colder months. There are so many things to do nearby that we are very much looking forward to a return stay! Mandy & Alan June 2023.

  Comfortable, clean well maintained property.

  The hot tub was amazing , everything we needed for a 2 week stay. The extras including Prosecco, jams, milk, orange juice , teas, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits made you feel welcomed. The property benefited from room to room underfloor heating which was fantastic as you could control the temperature in each room. Perfect for individual choices. The property had a washing machine but on rainy days had no where to dry washing , Louise the owner provided us with a airer which we out put to good use. There is ample parking. Both Duncan and Louise were great hosts , gave us the much needed privacy we wanted. Excellent position for walkers with great trails nearby. Deers are a plenty in this beautiful county . Would highly recommend.

  We absolutely loved our week here at tge Duck House, for us it was quiet, peaceful and such a lovely place to come back to after a day's walking about and enjoying Norfolk.

  The Hot tub for us was fantastic we used nearly every night, we felt relaxed and ready for rge next day after 40 minutes in it. Our holiday was so good it felt like we spent 14 days at Duck House, it was nice that the history of the site was included in the welcome brochure, we always felt that should if we needed to that we could have contacted the owners who lived next door but we were left to our own devices and that suited us on saying that we did make sure we said bye and thanked them for having us at Duck House, we will always remember the relaxing time we had there.

  Excellent accommodation, clean and comfortable, and in an ideal location for walking and reasonable proximity to Norwich and the Norfolk coastline.

  Can't do anything about the weather, but we wrapped up warm and dry for our walks, and had the luxury of the hot tub on our return every evening. The takeaway food option from the local pub (The Chequers) was another bonus - good food (try the stake & ale pie with their special gravy). Wild life around Duck House is also a joy. We thoroughly recommend Duck House as an ideal escape for two; walking, site seeing, relaxing in the hot tub, and curling up on the very comfortable sofa with a good book and the one you love. Just Brilliant! .
