There is golf and fishing available nearby and within 5 miles are the National Trust properties at Felbrigg Hall and Sheringham Park. Shop and pub 2 miles.
Great location for travelling around Norfolk, owners lovely and very informative.
Quiet rural location surrounded by beautiful countryside and wildlife, yet only a 8 min drive to supermarkets, restaurants, etc at Cromer. Great location for cycling with lots of country lanes, near to the coast and Broads.
This is a beautiful conversion in an idyllic location. Perfect for pet owners and couples. You do have to drive to find somewhere to go for a long walk as the lanes around are too narrow for any kind of stroll but that wasn't an issue for us in the slightest. Pretty Corner is very close with amazing views. I do have to say we live in a major city and due to the local wildlife, it's quieter at home! Pheasants make a terrible din!! 😂 We will absolutely stay again! It was the perfect retreat from some R&R away from the stresses of real life.
Orchard cottage was absolutely wonderful and all we could have asked of holiday accommodation. The standard of all the amenities provided and cleanliness were of the highest order. Our only disappointment was the lack of the advertised WiFi, the reasons for this was explained to us by the owner as the thick flint cottage walls and that he was in the process of hard wiring the properties so it would not be the case in the future. We had a wonderful holiday at Orchard cottage and would readily return for another.
Response on behalf of the owner; Thank you for your comments; and we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. Orchard Cottage is now hard wired for WiFi and Sure Computers recently installed a hub in the property so that WiFi is available as advertised.
Overall a very beautiful place with lots of places to visit within a very short distance. It does advertise they have WI-FI however that doesn't work inside the cottage. Which in fairness to the owners are going to be sorting this out in the near future.
Response on behalf of the owner; Thank you for your comments; we are pleased you found our place beautiful. The WiFi was recently sorted by Sure Computers and it is now available inside the cottage.
The many negative is the lack of useable wifi. They offer very weak wifi lacking good coverage in the cottage and limited to 1 device at a time. The cottage is very good and has a huge orchard garden. Great for dogs too. We also saw a deer one evening. Beds are a little hard and the sofa a bit creaky but that's picky. We liked it and would go back.
Response on behalf of the owner; Thank you for your comments. We are implementing a plan with our IT company to improve the wi-fi. This will improve connectivity and enable our guests to connect more than one device at a time. We are hopeful that this will be in place by the end of July.
Excellent location. The dogs enjoyed the orchard.
