A delightful cottage, the owner Alison has provided a home away from home, and you can't ask for anything more. The kitchen has everything you need, plus more. Beds are very comfortable with cotton bedding and feathered pillows, we slept very well. Bath and shower was perfect. The only hiccup was the housekeeper forgot the welcome pack and any additional supply of toilet rolls. Alison was lovely when we addressed these issues and a couple of others. Nothing that couldn't be simply rectified. On street parking outside the property was no problem. Waitrose was a short drive away in Swaffham Certainly recommend and if we're ever in the area again we'll certainly book again Much appreciationWendy and Esme

This is the second time we have stayed in Chaff Cottage when visiting Castle Acre. It is a lovely accommodation; very cosy and delightful. The bed in the master bedroom is so comfortable. The bathroom includes a great rain shower fixture overhead. The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for any meal preparation. The cottage is dog friendly and close to country side walks to the fabulous castle and priory ruins, as well as along the River Nar. My husband and I, with our two Labradors, had a wonderful time and will certainly seek to stay in Chaff Cottage again. Please do give Chaff Cottage a try. You’ll be glad you did.
