What a lovely, good sized cottage in a very convenient location! We very much enjoyed our stay and everything we wanted to visit, all over East Anglia, was only 30 minutes or less to drive to.The only negative is that the cottage could do with a spring clean and a touch up!

On a positive note, great location, lovely size house and beds comfortable.Negatives, upstairs shower broken, mould in the downstairs bathroom. Whole house needed some TLC. Bad smell from the drainage when we first arrived. No comment book left at the property.
