Guests say
Cherry Ridge is highly praised by guests for its spacious, well-equipped interiors and exceptional swimming pool, making it ideal for family gatherings and celebrations. The property is consistently described as clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully managed, with many appreciating the warm welcome and attention to detail. The kitchen is particularly well-stocked, and the garden and games facilities are popular with both adults and children. While the location is peaceful and close to local attractions, a minor issue with a neighbouring field was noted. Overall, guests thoroughly enjoyed their stays and would happily return.
Multiple reviews highlight the property as spotlessly clean, with fresh-smelling bed linen and well-maintained facilities. No significant negative comments regarding cleanliness were found.
Guests appreciate the peaceful setting and proximity to local attractions such as Brancaster beach, Sandringham, and family-friendly pubs. One minor mention of the property being a little out of the way, and a single negative interaction with a neighbouring field, but overall location is viewed positively.
The house is described as spacious, with comfortable beds and ample room for large groups. One guest preferred softer beds, but others found them excellent. The property is also noted as suitable for wheelchair users.
Facilities are a standout feature, with guests praising the large, warm pool, well-equipped kitchen, games room, and thoughtful extras like poolside towels and robes. Suggestions for minor improvements (e.g., more coat hooks, new outdoor furniture) do not detract from overwhelmingly positive feedback.
Guests frequently mention welcome packs with snacks, drinks, and even Prosecco, as well as helpful communication from the house manager. While these thoughtful touches are appreciated, please note that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

Our family had an excellent stay at Cherry Ridge. The party was myself and my wife, two daughters with husbands and two grandchildren. The property is fabulous. Brilliant living area, well equipped kitchen and 5 good sized bedrooms. The grandchildren had the two twin bed rooms so had a room each. They shared a bathroom on the landing, the other rooms all en-suite. Handy bathroom just outside the pool area, with a utility room next to it. Wonderful to get a decent welcome pack of water, milk, cake, biscuits etc. The pool was great. The kids especially never wanted to be away from it.Sandringham is very close. Holkham and Wells 20 minutes away, a lovely windmill 20 minutes walk, or two minutes in the car is well worth a visit. The King's Head pub 10 minutes walk away was brilliant. So a very enjoyable stay. All wanted to repeat it.

The house was amazing, and the family adored the pool. The house was extremely clean and the property clearly well looked after. On arrival we found the kettle was broken and phoned the housekeeper, Matthew, who replaced the kettle within 1 hour, despite it being bank holiday! couldn't ask for more. The lower comfort score is a personal preference of softer beds, however, the son in laws thought the beds were amazing!!The location is ideal, and we highly recommend the local pub - the King's head- for food and drinks.We would love to return again.

One of the best places we have ever stayed in. The house has everything you could need, items in the kitchen which are often not supplied e.g. foil, clingfilm, baking parchment, spices, seasonings etc. The pool is wonderful and the drying area for towels, robes and swimwear means everything is ready again for the next swim.
