“Enjoyed our stay had everything we needed, lovely and quiet and lots of wildlife visited the chalet.”

Leigh, the owner was very helpful. Would recommend The Brambles particularly for people who are elderly and can't cope with steps.

“A lovely well kept lodge.”

Very Suitable property for our disabled daughter as there was a ramp access and Walk in shower. Leigh the owner was there to welcome us on our arrival. She checked everything was OK during our stay and there to say farewell at our departure.Excellent joining instructions with lots of useful information on what to see and where to eat etc. We were able to see daily visits by deer and rabbits from the lodge.

Mr Marriott February 2020

“The lodge was fitted out with everything you could possibly need.”

with some touches above and beyond expectations. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and we all loved walking through the woodland walk every day. Our cairn terrier Ice really enjoyed the freedom of no lead and the freedom to run around. Then back to the warm lodge for a cup of tea. Every evening we were visited by the Muntjac deer looking for food, Not to mention the squirrels and birds. The site agent Leigh made sure everything was perfect. Nothing was too much trouble - really great. Well the week soon was over and it has given us some wonderful memories. For February the weather was really good. One day we went to the centre at Thetford forest, had a good walk and then tucked into our picnic. Top notch. Would we come again- you bet we would and to anyone thinking of going there book it.

Mr Hall June 2019

“The lodge was absolutely beautiful and Lee, the owner, was so lovely and helpful.”

The situation is ideal if you are looking for a quiet and peaceful holiday, we sat on the veranda with a glass of wine or a coffee listening to the birds and we even saw a deer about 10 feet away just wandering past and there was always rabbits around and a pheasant patrolling his territory. Thanks for a lovely week, we look forward to booking again next year. Ann & David Hall.

“The lodge is in a beautiful setting, private from the other 2 lodges on the grounds.”

We found the lodge very well appointed, especially with the gates to the veranda allowing our dog outside space without fear of her wandering off. She also found the wooded area great to run around in and would recommend to families. All in all a very enjoyable stay and will certainly use again. Lyn & John
