We enjoyed our week in this well equipped and cosy cottage. Anthony was very welcoming and on hand if we had any queries.The cottage is well located for touring the area and there are a number of local pubs offering a range of good beers and food (though none in Freethorpe itself.)

We were looking for a base from which to spend time with family in Norwich. Despite the roadworks on the A47, we were able to get in and out without too much delay. The views from the property were fabulous and it was very warm and comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely time here. The barn had everything we needed. Comfy bed, cosy sitting areas to relax. It was clean and well equipped. In a peaceful location with easy access to nearby walks. Anthony and his wife were very friendly and helpful and recommended lots of nearby places to visit.
