Previous visitors' comments about Willow Brook Cottage:
The location of the cottage was superb due to the facilities in Harleston. It was also a good base for exploring the wider area. The cottage's garden was fantastic. The appearance of the cottage from the outside was lovely and the bedroom and living area were also very nice.
Mr Watson, Mansfield, July 2011
We liked the peace and quiet, also the village was great with lots of shops and places to eat. There was lots to see and do in the area and one week didn't seem to be enough to explore.
Mrs Leightell, Gateshead, June 2011
Willow Brook Cottage was in a great location and extremely well equipped. The garden was superb and great for watching the wildlife. Harleston itself is a small market town with many independent shops and good pubs. Magic.
Mr Anderson, Bolton, March 2011
