"Lovely property with plenty of space for a family of 4 and everything we needed."
Plenty of clean towels, more than we needed but nice to have extras available. Double mattress in main bedroom was a little on the soft side for us, we prefer a firmer mattress. Older property so floors upstairs were quite creaky but didn't bother us and to be expected in am older property. Owner met us on arrival and was very friendly and helpful.

"We had a wonderful week in Violet Cottage."
It is in a central location for visiting other towns and villages such as Thetford, Bury St Edmunds, Newmarket, Ely, Diss and Norwich and Kings Lynn etc. A bonus with this cottage is that it is the only cottage (out of the 7 we stayed in) that has a cloths dryer and conservatory for drying cloths without using bathrooms which helped us enormously.

"When we arrived we were very pleased with the accommodation."
The kitchen was lovely and bright with lots of equipment. The bedrooms were spacious, especially the master bedroom. The two bathrooms were very useful with having a 15 year old son, he used one we used the other one.
Would definitely return. 5⭐️

"An excellent property, great value for money, fully equipped with essentials plus the added luxuries such as full size bath towels and TV with Sky in every room!"
Having 2 bathrooms is a lovely bonus and the upstairs shower was fab. Plenty of parking for our 2 cars. We only had a short 2 night stay but would certainly have no hesitation in returning.

"The bed was a bit soft for us."
It was difficult to come out of the driveway, hard to see traffic coming from the left and right and hard for traffic to see us. Its a busy road with large lorries going up and down it. Perhaps aome mirrors might be a good idea to make it easier to see traffic and for traffic to a car coming of the driveway. We enjoyed our stay, it warm abd comfortable and had everything we needed.
The double bed mattress has been replaced with a new firmer one. The traffic was more busy than usual, due to a diversion for roadworks, which are now complete, in another part of the village.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in violet cottage, the owner Mrs crane (who we never met) has equipped it really well."
the location was good handy for everywhere we wanted to go, the village pub was very friendly and interesting, easy parking at the cottage and a beautiful garden.
Only downsides for us was the furnishings we found them to be very dated , air fresheners in the wardrobe ??, also the cobwebs especially behind the dressing table.

"Lovely cottage with everything that you could possibly need, and very thorough information book."
A delightful owner - spoke on phone for key collection, was in garden and waved on our arrival, plus a couple of texts after departure, but otherwise we did not see her. Perfect break. Although they weren’t doing food, The Wellington pub (5 minute walk) was fabulous and so welcoming that we became “regulars” popping in for a couple of drinks after our days out.

"The cottage was clean and comfortable."
Only one point - nowhere to plug in my hairdryer to do my hair in front of a mirror in the main bedroom. I had to do my hair and make-up in the conservatory with the mirror from the second bedroom. Feltwell village is lovely, the local pub The Wellington is excellent and serves great food. Be sure to visit St Nicholas' church - Saxon origins from 683! Large local playing field for running around (which we did). Two local shops and a great fish and chip shop.

Delightful and private getaway with large garden in the heart of the village. If you are wild bird lover then this is the place to be. With two bathrooms this suited our needs perfectly. Diane and Gordon are lovely hosts, friendly but not intrusive. Gordon was particularly Informative regarding all things local.

"The cottage itself was fine but we didn't feel very welcome, generally."
The cottage was clean and more spacious than expected, however, there are serious problems with the internet and sky TV. The garden is actually a large garden which belongs to the owners who live next door and it really feels like their space.
We could've overlooked this if the hosts had been a bit friendlier. We stayed for 4 weeks and didn't see them at all after moving in until the day we were moving out and then all the owner said was 'what time are you leaving? You can leave the keys in there'. There was no 'how was your stay' or thanks for staying. We were quite shocked and felt like they wanted our money but didn't really want us there. Very disappointing.

We had to leave early because the weather forecasts were on Amber warnings, so did not get to Kings Lynn and Suffolk. A good excuse to return at some time. The owners live next door but we're not obtrusive. All in all a good and comfortable retreat.
