  Some of the mattresses are very old and dirty.

  They have clean mattress protectors on but, when stripping the beds at the end, the protectors came away too revealing very old mattresses. I didn't check all of them just the two I stripped. In May a review mentioned the stained settee. The owners answer was to cover up with what looked like quilted throws off the beds. They didn't fit well and were constantly slipping off the settee. The coffee table in the lounge which was originally black had chips of white all over it so it never looked clean. The vacuum cleaner didn't pick anything up. When I checked the brushes they were completely clogged with dirt, hair and fluff. It would have been a long job to breathe life back into it. I only hope the cleaners were using their own equipment.The owner needs to check that equipment is in a usable state. The wash basins in the bathrooms were very small and, with a glass shelf above, impossible to get your face over. I think the three star rating should really be 2 star. My family all agreed it felt like student digs. On the plus side the location is excellent. There was plenty of space for the 6 young children to run around. The kitchen was well equipped for a large group. You get parking for 2 cars for the week for free and extra parking permits are available for £5 for each 24hrs from the owner but you are not guaranteed a parking spot especially at the weekends. However, Sainsbury's is a 10 minute walk away and my son parked there for the week for £21. Finally be aware that because of Covid you can't get in the property until 5pm and you have to vacate at 9am. The cleaners arrived at 9.02am. These were not the times I was given when I made the booking earlier and it was quite a rush to get 9 adults and 6 children breakfasted, packed, beds stripped etc. and out by 9am on leaving day.

  We had three generations of our family staying at Field Piece Cottage for a long weekend in November 24. The property was as expected, in particular the large open plan receptions rooms downstairs were well appointed and ideal for our group. The kitchen is well equipped and enabled us to cater for ourselves on Saturday evening. The beds were comfortable, however the two bedrooms in the top level dormer roof space, needed care when walking around due to the varying height levels.In pre-arrival dialogue with NH's we had requested that a travel cot, high chair and stair gate be available for us on arrival. After realising the high chair was not in the property, a quick call to the office resulted in one of their people dropping off what was missing within an hour of us asking, which was much appreciated.Overall a good weekend was had by all with Burnham Market and the local North Norfolk coastline, proving to be the star of the show.

  We had a lovely stay in Clover court.

  The rooms were clean and the house well equipped. There was plenty of space for the 16 of us to enjoy each other’s company but also have room to retreat! The kitchen is large and well equipped and each of the rooms having their own en suite meant no queuing for the bathroom The living area is spacious and allowed us room to sit and read or watch TV and the large dining table was ideal for family meals The beach was within walking distance and dog friendly and we enjoyed swimming in the sea. The only downside was the previous occupants had taken the wifi router! The owner did his very best to replace this and get it working. It did, unfortunately mean we had to spend extra on wifi cloud connection for the first 4 days as myself, and 3 other family members had unavoidable work meetings whilst away.

  My Husband and I stayed at Foxglove Cottage for a week with our Labrador puppy, Meg. It was just perfect - well laid out, well decorated and well equipped. Just outside the back door there's a decked veranda perfect for keeping the dog (and any children) close by if required although they are very welcome to enjoy the freedom of the field with the horses and chickens etc. The location is fantastic, a lovely quiet spot in the country with good local walks and yet just about 20 minutes to any of the beaches on that part of the Norfolk coast. Not to forget to mention that Ed was a super host - friendly and helpful... Thank You. We couldn't fault Foxglove Cottage and would highly recommend it.

  Great for a break from home and visiting North Norfolk. A lovely little traditional timber cottage, tucked away. Very quiet and peaceful - for 2 people in 1 double bedroom, large living room, large kitchen and large bathroom. The furniture - for two people - in the large living room looks a little lost , and maybe that could be improved upon. A large private deck at the back overlooks fields, trees , some poultry and horses - lovely for a nice al-fresco drink. Once you get used to the narrow lanes around the property, which are generally very quiet, all the sights of interest are within easy reach - beaches, little villages and market towns, pubs, nature reserves, and historic places etc
