Guests say

Guests have consistently praised No.5 Hedgehog Den for its comfort, cleanliness, and well-equipped facilities, including a hot tub. The lodge's location is appreciated for its proximity to local attractions and its suitability for both friends and family getaways. The property is described as homely, with a festive touch during the Christmas season, and the owners are commended for their responsiveness and hospitality.

The lodge receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being 'impeccably clean' and well-maintained, contributing to a pleasant stay.

The location is highly regarded, with guests enjoying the nearby Norfolk Beaches and local walks. The convenience to attractions within a 15-minute drive is also noted.

Comfort is frequently highlighted, with guests finding the property comfortable and homely. Spacious bedrooms and effective heating contribute to a cosy experience, although one review suggests room for improvement in furnishings.

Facilities are generally praised, especially the hot tub and enclosed garden for dogs. However, one review suggests that the outside area could be better maintained, and another mentions a quick response to a minor maintenance issue.

While the reviews reflect a positive experience with the owners and mention festive decorations, there is no specific mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.

About this property

Comfortable and stylish, this chic lodge is the ideal escape for couples or small families, boasting a bright, co-ordinated interior and lovely outdoor space with a hot tub. It’s perfectly positioned within Norfolk’s glorious countryside for all kinds of outdoor activities, from golf to cycling, as well as trips to the seaside and exploring the waterways of the Broads. In Great Witchingham there is plenty to see and do, with a great local pub/restaurant just a short drive away. With the Roar Dinosaur Park just a 5 minute drive away, this makes for a fun filled family day out with the dinosaur trail, animal enclosures and play park. - if you also book this property you will receive a 10% discount for the Dinosaur Park. Set just a few moments away from the property is The Bug Parc where your young ones can see hundreds of rare and unusual invertebrates.

After a long walk or a day out exploring, hang up your coat in the entrance hall and head into the lounge, where you can stretch out on the comfortable seating (there’s a sofa bed if needed), put your feet up and indulge in a movie on the Smart TV. The bright and airy kitchen/diner has all mod cons for stress-free cooking and cleaning up, with a spacious table where you can get together for sociable meals. A superb bathroom can also be found on the ground floor, and there’s a laundry room, shared between the small group of holiday homes, situated just across from the parking space. When you head upstairs you’ll discover two stunning bedrooms, both with a sloping ceiling and a skylight, one a king-size and the other a twin. In the wraparound garden there’s a gorgeous hot tub in which you can enjoy an indulgent soak, and your patio boasts outdoor furniture ready for you to linger over drinks or a meal alfresco.

This property can also be booked with Middle of Nowhere No.6 which is located next door making this great for large groups of friends or families, looking to holiday together but have their own separate space. Click the link here to view Middle of Nowhere NO.6.

Walkers and cyclists will want to get out on Marriott’s Way, a 26-mile route that runs from Norwich to Aylsham along disused railway lines, while families can take the children for a nostalgic train ride from Whitwell and Reepham Station, less than 2 miles away.

      This was a great location, lodge super comfortable and hot tub a lovely treat

    • Mrs Sawyer

      Property is nice but with a few small changes could be better. For example the outside area had a lot of stinging nettles and was very unkempt. Inside of property was nice but basic, a few personal touches and more comfortable mattress and settees would help. Just feels that minimum has been added at the cheapest cost, yes, it is a business, but due to the afore mentioned I would not return and it wouldn’t cost much to make an improvement.

      We really enjoyed our stay! We loved how private the hot tub area was and having the enclosed space for the dog. On the first day we noticed that the remote control to TV needed new batteries and the owners were over very quickly to help and replace. Thank you.
