Really nice first floor apartment with view of River Bure. Thoughtfully and comfortably furnished with good quality furniture. King bed incredibly comfortable and large sofa bed comfortable too for both sitting on and sleeping on. Small, well equipped kitchen with mini washing machine and clothes airer. Excellent water pressure in shower. We parked our car right outside the apartment, on the road. We used the car several times and always got a parking space outside again. Steps up to the park for dog walking and children's play park, are immediately across the road. We stayed for a week during the heat wave but managed well as windows open wide for the river breeze to come in, and there’s a large and efficient portable fan in the apartment. Peter, the owner, is responsive and helpful. Everything is clean though there was the odd cobweb and some dust on skirting boards, but I haven’t stayed in cleaner holiday accommodation. Beds and bedding were immaculately clean. Washing up liquid and washing up cloths supplied together with pump soap in kitchen and shower room, lots of clean tea towels and oven gloves, kitchen paper roll, foil, roll of bin bags, salt & pepper, vinegar, biscuits, ice lollies, nice fluffy towels and good shower mat plus a week’s supply of toilet paper.We plan to return next year.

Lovely stay, only negative would be the steep stairs, which previous people have mentioned. Meant to leave a note as we left to say that some of the bulbs in the ceiling lights in the lounge need replacing. Otherwise really enjoyed our time in Horning.
