We had a fantastic week in The Stables. The cottage is spacious and well equipped, lovely garden and we could pick plums! Its only a short drive away from the coast and half an hour to Norwich. The hosts were friendly and thoughtful.

An excellent property, beautifully clean and equipped. The owners are lovely but leave you alone to get on with your holiday. The wildlife park 300 yards down the road is well worth a visit and sitting in the properties garden and listening to the Gibbons whooping is amazing.
