"We absolutely loved our week here at tge Duck House, for us it was quiet, peaceful and such a lovely place to come back to after a day's walking about and enjoying Norfolk."
The Hot tub for us was fantastic we used nearly every night, we felt relaxed and ready for rge next day after 40 minutes in it.
Our holiday was so good it felt like we spent 14 days at Duck House, it was nice that the history of the site was included in the welcome brochure, we always felt that should if we needed to that we could have contacted the owners who lived next door but we were left to our own devices and that suited us on saying that we did make sure we said bye and thanked them for having us at Duck House, we will always remember the relaxing time we had there.

"Property was great and suited us as we are in our 70’s and have some mobility problems so single level property is a must, the surrounding gardens are beautiful with a tranquil pond with visiting family of Moorhens."
Only issue is not suitable location for all electric vehicles as you cannot charge there overnight, and there limited public charging points in the area. Had I have been in petrol vehicle would say 10 out of 10 for this property, with the owners being first class.

Everything we could have hoped for was there to ensure that our holiday was as enjoyable as possible. From the luxurious furnishings and decor to the bottle of prosecco in the fridge on our arrival, the hot tub that was so relaxing after a day out exploring, and the peace and tranquility of the private garden..... everything was lovely. I was celebrating a big birthday, and it made my day even more special.

"The property was lovely and clean and also well maintained, we never had any intentions of eating main meals in , if we did we believe it would have been difficult."
We found several downsides to the property in our personal view.
No phone signal EE
Wifi continually dropping out
Having to wash my car every morning due to pigeons
Lack of wardrobe space
Chemicals in hot tub burning our eyes
Could do with some bigger mugs /cups
Tried to contact owners but unable to get through, informed they were on holiday in France so no onsite help.

"Comfortable, clean well maintained property."
The hot tub was amazing , everything we needed for a 2 week stay. The extras including Prosecco, jams, milk, orange juice , teas, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits made you feel welcomed. The property benefited from room to room underfloor heating which was fantastic as you could control the temperature in each room. Perfect for individual choices. The property had a washing machine but on rainy days had no where to dry washing , Louise the owner provided us with a airer which we out put to good use. There is ample parking. Both Duncan and Louise were great hosts , gave us the much needed privacy we wanted. Excellent position for walkers with great trails nearby. Deers are a plenty in this beautiful county . Would highly recommend.

"This is perfect for either exploring the area or walks in the area."
We did some of both. It is a quiet place to stay but with a good pub with good food within walking distance. The Duck house is 5* for quality, comfort, cleanliness and facilities. It was great to have the hot tub indoors but with doors opening out to garden when weather is better one way and other way straight back into your own bathroom to shower off. Owners were close by but not intrusive, very friendly and helpful. The Farm shop close by ok for fresh veg but not much else. We hope to revisit at future date.

Duncan and Louise are excellent hosts, who ensured Duck House had everything we needed including secure bike storage, and a lovely welcome package - they were welcoming but unobtrusive.

The house is perfectly situated for exploring North Norfolk and also has wonderful walks and cycle routes on the doorstep. Thoroughly recommended!!

"Excellent accommodation, clean and comfortable, and in an ideal location for walking and reasonable proximity to Norwich and the Norfolk coastline."
Can't do anything about the weather, but we wrapped up warm and dry for our walks, and had the luxury of the hot tub on our return every evening. The takeaway food option from the local pub (The Chequers) was another bonus - good food (try the stake & ale pie with their special gravy). Wild life around Duck House is also a joy. We thoroughly recommend Duck House as an ideal escape for two; walking, site seeing, relaxing in the hot tub, and curling up on the very comfortable sofa with a good book and the one you love. Just Brilliant! .

"The Duck House was exactly as listed but I have to say you don't really appreciate the fine details untill you actually stay there."
The space was warm and comforting and the hot tub over looking the pond and garden was a joy.
Both myself and wife really enjoyed our stay and a big thankyou to our hosts Duncan and Louise.
We got to explore around and about and the information pack helped us plan our days. As we were coming out of lockdown we didn't get to try the local pub as their opening times were limited but maybe we will save that for the next time.
Once again the Duck house was a lovely romantic place to spend our week.

"The Duck House is a very well appointed accommodation and a great get-away for a couple wishing to escape to a quiet spot in rural Norfolk."
There are some great walks in the area amongst the numerous pools (called Pingos) and forests that create an almost swamp-like environment along with abundant wild-life (remember to take binoculars/cameras with you). Alternatively, Thetford, Norwich and Ely are all in easy driving distance, as is the coast line which has some wonderfull beaches/dunes. The hot tub makes a wonderful addition to the Duck House as an extension to the bathroom, and a great way of relaxing in the evening after a day out exploring.

My only criticism, there wasnt a bottle opener or corkscrew! 9.5/10
