Cherry Ridge is highly praised for its cleanliness, spaciousness, and well-equipped facilities, including a large, warm pool and extensive garden. It's ideal for family gatherings, offering comfort, entertainment, and a touch of luxury with thoughtful touches like a welcome pack. The property's serene setting and proximity to local attractions add to its charm, despite a minor note about an aggressive neighbour.
Guests consistently commend the property for its cleanliness, with multiple reviews highlighting the spotless condition and great smelling bed linen. The well-maintained environment contributes to the overall positive experience.
The property is appreciated for its peaceful setting and proximity to the Norfolk coast, with local pubs and beaches within a short drive. However, one review mentions it being slightly out of the way, which slightly affects the score.
Reviewers are unanimous in their appreciation of the property's comfort, noting the comfiness of the beds and the spaciousness of the rooms. The property's suitability for large groups and families enhances the comfort factor.
The facilities, including a large indoor pool, well-stocked kitchen, and entertainment options, are highly rated. A suggestion for additional coat hooks and outdoor furniture indicates room for minor improvements.
The welcome pack and other considerate amenities are well-received, demonstrating the hosts' thoughtfulness. While such gestures are appreciated, it's important to note that these are subject to change and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

From the start communication with Matthew the house manager was very clear and helpful. He shared a very thorough guide for the house and was happy to answer any questions. We arrived on a very cold Friday afternoon and Matt had kindly already had the heating on to ensure we arrived to a warm house. This set the tone of our stay. We received a welcome pack including snacks, drinks kit and an appreciated Prosecco. The Kitchen was very well stocked and having salts, spices even tin foil was very useful when preparing food. There was lots of group size serving bowls and plates, and a good range of cups and glasses for all drink types. Two ovens were great when cooking for a group!The house itself was lovely, very clean and well presented. Bedrooms were all an excellent size and we fitted in travel cots in them no problems at all. The number of ensuites and bathrooms is ideal for a large group. Bed was one of the comfiest I've stayed in aside from my own!The pool was much larger than we expected, and nice and warm. Poolside towels and having dressing robes was a great touch.The garden was huge and much appreciated for a run around post nap. I imagine in summer it would be ideal for BBQ!Living room is well stocked with DVDS, portable speaker and we even found some games in a cupboard.Overall we had a wonderful stay for my mums 60th and would absolutely stay again and recommend this to anyone considering it.

A lovely property with excellent facilities, this is a great place for a family gathering. One word of caution there is a field adjoining the garden with some ponies in it. The owner of the ponies is pretty aggressive, using foul language and shouting at the children when they were stroking them. Otherwise a perfect stay

Cherry Ridge is a great place for families. The pool is great for everyone. Watching the wildlife in the garden interesting for the children. Local village deli and hotel were great for food. The only thing I would add to the house would be coat hooks in the hall and some in the bathrooms.
