"Very disappointed we booked this stay because it was advertised as fishing lakes there are 2 lakes but neither can be fished on as they are too shallow and silted up with green algae."
This is advertised as a lodge when in actual fact it is a park home (Large Caravan)

"The comfort and quality of the lodge and furnishings are excellent."
The towels and bedding were lovely. The cleaning could have been a lot better. There were so many cobwebs, and these weren't just little recent ones. The cooker was filthy with grease. One of the seats outside was damaged, looked like someone had stood on it.

"The location is pretty, peaceful and we love it."
From here, the maximum drive to anywhere of interest in Norfolk is 60-75 minutes. Many places need much shorter drives. Nearest shop for "immediate needs" is about 4 miles away. Nearest "big shop" 7 miles away. Plan accordingly. The site is "hidden away" (but perfectly accessible for cars).
The property itself is lovely, very comfortable, certainly large for 2 people, clean, and has most things anyone might need. We had no complaints at all in that respect. (Please bring your own fans - the property does not have any! When hot, you will need them!)
However there is, sadly, one drawback that was major to us, but which might not, understandably, matter to others. The internet connectivity is shockingly slow and bad. And that's when you can get it at all. So if you need to be web-connected, you may well find that you will be spending a lot of time watching circles whizz around on your screen. This may be a site issue, rather than a property issue.
There is outside furniture, but one chair appeared unusable and the furniture didn't really appeal overall to us. It looked a bit "tired".
Overall summary - a lovely property, well stocked, on a lovely and peaceful site, but not really ideal for those who need internet connection whilst away. And, as I say, when hot, bring your own fan!

"Whilst the lodge would have been lovely when new it has been neglected considering the owner lives on site this coukd have been avoided."
Whilst the beds were comfortably & the linen & towels were of good quality the important things have been neglected. The two fireside chairs were in a very bad state they were covered in stains. I understand this is due to clients t neglect but it doesn't take long to steam clean when not in use. It states it has a washing machine but the detergent drawer & seal were full of water & gunk. I did leave a note to say PLEASE CLEAN ME again this could have been done during a change over clean. So consequently we only stayed five nights instead of the seven. Won't be staying there again.

"Stunning location."
Lodge perfect for our family needs. The only draw back was that the WiFi was very poor signal. Used coffee shops to downloads programs etc for the child.
Add bonus was the dishwasher and washing machine.
There is a private swimming at the top of the site which you are to book, great for raining days.
We would defiantly return.

"Petite Lodge secluded by woodland and lakes."
Very rural location so a car is essential. Nearest beach was 30 mins drive. Lovely walk around the main lake passing through woodland, however signs on the park are very confusing as to where you can and can't walk. I'm sure that there were lots of walks to do but unfortunately we struggled to know where to walk, especially in the woodland, maps of local walks would've been fantastic. Lodge itself was comfortable and tastefully decorated, main bedroom was a good size with the addition of having en suite wc. Overall we had a pleasant stay, neighbours either side and in front were pleasant and even treated our dog.

"Lovely lodge and location."
Very comfortable but pillows could do with upgrading and choice of hard/soft provided. Nice welcome pack provided.
Very quiet park with nice walks. Unfortunately cannot recommend for on-site fishing, the 2 lakes are very overgrown/weedy with very few available swims (with a bit of good management and re-stocking by the site owners it could be excellent for fishing.
