Lyons Green

We were met by Jenny, who introduced us to the cottage.

We had a welcome pack of fresh eggs, butter, milk and bread. The description is a true reflection of it, it has character. There was plenty of room for the five of us. What it doesn’t tell you is, that everyday we had visitors, from deer, hares, bats, birds and the squirrel. It was so relaxing watching them. We walked around the two pond’s everyday, that has some big fish in them, and even disturbed some grouse that were hiding in the hedge rows one time. We were able to get to where we wanted, a bit longer to the beach, but only an hours drive. When you live in Birmingham, that is close. We all said that we would come back again. We had glorious weather, had doors and windows open. We celebrated a 40th birthday with a BBQ. Thank you Jenny, it was lovely to meet you and stay in your lovely home.

We had a fantastic holiday at Lyons Green, it was amazing, we'd happily come back again in the future.

Such a nice place, the location was fantastic and Jenny, the owner was so friendly and helpful. Thank you x

First of all we must mention our host, Jenny.

A truly remarkable lady who welcomed us on arrival, showed us around and made sure we were settled. Lyons Green is something of an enigma ( meant in the most favourable way). For the most part, with the exception of the kitchen, we were taken back into a previous era with beautiful semi-antique furniture which has stood the test of time and truly adds to the terrific ambience Jenny has created. Not a single piece of modern flat pack furniture. The beds were extremely comfortable . Bathroom facilities were good and the kitchen provided everything needed. Lyons Green is in a wonderfully secluded location with the biggest garden outside Kensington gardens. This means we were treated to a great display of local wildlife, viz, foxes, hares, Herons, muntjac cormorant and a whole host of bird life. And of course, the Norfolk Red cattle ( the first we'd ever seen) in an adjacent field. Future potential occupants please be assured, if you decide on Lyons Green, you will in no way be disappointed with your choice. Enjoy The Two John's father and son duo.

Lyons Green was a lovely house with a wonderful garden.

So much wildlife to see. The owner was very friendly and very keen to ensure our stay was as comfortable as possible. We hope to return.

As it was a last minute booking, we were not sure what to expect, but Lyons Green was a wonderful find.

Set in beautiful, peaceful surroundings, it had everything that you could want. Thank you Jenny for all the thoughtful goodies, they were much appreciated! We will definitely go back again, but for a proper holiday next time! Sue & Dave

Lovely peaceful setting .

Spacious property was ideal for two couples or whole families. Extremely friendly host’s who ensured everything was going well through the holiday.

A fabulous property.

Only two of us so loads of room. Would be though even if there were seven! From first being greeted by Jenny, the owner, walking us through, we felt at ease and comfortable. This certainly rates with the best we have stayed in. We made good use of the spacious conservatory facing one of two lakes. The location was perfect for touring the county. All in all we would highly recommend Lyons Green.

Some of the wooden furniture could do with updating/repairing, as well as some of the kitchen appliances but otherwise we had a very comfortable stay, thank you

Lovely house with fantastic countryside all around.

Perfect base to tour East anglia

Amazing property best cottage we've ever stayed at,owner very helpful and attentive overall a wonderful week.

A really lovely property with great garden and a good place from which to explore north Norfolk.

Had a fantastic week here, the house and gardens were beautiful.

There was ample room for us all (a family of 7 plus a large dog) and it had ground floor facilities which were accessible ( bedroom, shower, toilet). The house was well equipped with everything we needed especially the kitchen. The welcome pack was very much appreciated after our 6 hour journey! We were warmly introduced to the house and learned of its history and a bit about the area. As well as relaxing at the house we found it was a great location we visited Norwich, Yarmouth, Wroxham and other lovely places. A really great relaxing house.

Delightful stay in excellent accommodation and beautiful surroundings.

Jenny was very warm and welcoming! Would recommend (though need a car to make best of it).

6 of us arrived after a 4 hour journey, only to find that there was NO hot water and we had to spend the rest of the day and night without a hot or warm shower!

. The place itself was fabulous and the grounds and gardens and lakes are amazing.Would recommend as long as the hot water is running properly. The fresh eggs from Jenny’s chicks was a great touch and she even brought us some more when requested! Shame about the water! Would have been a much better score.

The hosts were very friendly and checked on us to see if we needed anything.

The property felt like home from home. Good size rooms and good quality furniture. Wonderful views of the lake and wildlife. We sat on the seats at the lake and watched the wildlife. Took walks round the lake etc. We fed the birds fat balls and seed in the hanging feeders. We are going to book and go back.

Fantastic location and cottage.

Jenny ( the owner) made us feel at home from the moment we arrived. Great sense of humour which was a great start to our holiday! Would highly recommend this location for its beauty and tranquility. The ideal place to totally chill out and explore the wonderful Norfolk countryside.

Lyons Green is a very spacious and comfortable property.

The furnishings are high quality and there is ample seating within the various reception rooms, enabling members of our family to have quiet time when required. We had everything we required to enable us to have a wonderful stay. The property is set within extremely spacious and beautiful grounds We definitely recommend this property.

What an amazing property!

We are a family of 5, including a parent with limited mobility. We booked the property because we thought the downstairs bedroom and walk-in shower would be ideal, it did not disappoint. The bathroom was opposite to the King size bedroom on the ground floor. There is so much space to move around every room, the pictures do not do it justice. The grounds around the property are very well maintained and private. It was ideal for walking our dog, he walked around the lakes every morning before heading to the beach for the day, he loved it! The kitchen is very well-equipped and the utility room is an added bonus. The location is ideal too. We could get to the coast in under an hour. There are so many places to visit in the area and the house is so comfortable we could easily have stayed another week at least. We would love to return to this beautiful property.

We spent a wonderful relaxing week at Lyon’s Green.

Fully equipped with everything you could possibly want. Comfortable and impeccably clean. The outside space was amazing with large ponds, great wildlife. We had visiting swans, herons and many other types of bird. There is also a great private garden to the rear of the house. The owner Jenny couldn’t have been more helpful. She provided a great welcome pack and met us at the property on arrival and on departure. Having stayed at many rental holiday properties this personal service was the best we have experienced. We visited the wonderful beaches, the Broads, National Trust properties, Sheringham, Wells, all in around 40 mins drive. We were blessed with wonderful weather all week! If you are looking for a relaxing break in Norfolk I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property. We will be back!

A warm welcome for a lovely property.

Spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The star feature has to be the fantastic setting. Between outings, staying in was a pleasure.

This was a beautifully presented holiday home with period furnature that was also practical, very good facilities, and two spacious and comfortably equiped living areas; a living room and a conservatory.

The gardens are a haven for anyone who loves peace, quiet and nature with two ponds and plenty of space to walk and enjoy. We had a lovely week and all of us want to return next year.

We just came back from another fabulous week at Lyons Green.

Beautiful house, beautiful gardens and great location for exploring Norfolk The house has a wonderful relaxing atmosphere which sets the scene for a great holiday.

Very comfortable cottage in an amazing setting.

Very relaxing.

This is a very interesting house in a charming setting in a very restful location.

One can imagine staying there and writing a book in Agatha Christie style! Owner was attentive and quickly fixed minor problems.

Got there for 14.

00hrs as agreed with owner and was greeted with a stressed owner how did apologies for her curt greeting however having experienced the lovely peacefull possion of the cottage we all had a very enjoyable week and the facilities were very good, would recommend this for a quiet location. She was very generous with her welcome pack having most things you would need for your first 24hrs.

We enjoyed our stay at Lyon’s Green and was made very welcome by Jenny.

There was everything that you needed at the cottage and it was like home from home, everything has been carefully thought about. The property itself is a Gem with great facilities and surroundings. We would highly recommend Lyon’s Green.

Lyons Green was the best ever equipped cottage we have stayed in for many years & as such deserves a mention.

The extreme weather had reduced the water level in the lake and weed was a big problem. However, we did manage a couple of sessions and landed some 50+ carp... mainly commons to 8 or 9lbs and some nice mirrors to around 10lbs. Light tackle is not recommend as these fish fight hard an head straight for the weed. We would certainly recommend this holiday to any large family group and intend to return in the future.

An extremely comfortable and well equipped house in beautiful and peaceful surroundings.

A quite exceptional cottage.

Large and very well furnished and equipped, it stands in large grounds with two lakes, which are the home to two families of geese. Thoroughly recommended.

The house and grounds were lovely we enjoyed the lake and the peace and quiet , no open fire as stated but no need as the weather was lovely, unfortunately we had a problem with key at the end of our holiday as we put it through the letterbox and the owner had no spare key , there was no instructions left as too were to leave they key , the owner was obviously angry and upset and let us know , we did apologise and unfortunately this did put a damper on our weeks holiday as the owner were very welcoming and friendly when we were showed around , we have used Skye’s holidays numerous times and have never had any previous problems .

Although the photos on the website initially grabbed our interest, my wife and I could not help repeating wow as Jenny met us on arrival and showed us round this fantastic cottage and it’s grounds.

The facilities are first class and very comfortable. A great base for visits to the coast and local towns. We definitely plan to return in the future.

What a fabulous property!

Loads of space and facilities in absolutely beautiful surroundings. Would definitely recommend and would also rebook - it would be lovely to see the grounds in the Summer months.

We have just had a fabulous stay at Lyons Green - three generations plus extended family (ages 24 to 80 plus a cockerpoo!

).The house itself was perfect for our needs. Lots of space to get together as well as space to have some quiet time between the dining room, spacious lounge and sun room. Then there are the stunnomg grounds to wander around which are shared with the adjacent cottage. Find a seat by the lake and see all the beautiful wildlife, and you also have a rear private garden too. We arrived to find a lovely welcome pack and the owner, Jenny, who is absolutely lovely, checked in on us to ensure we were ok and had everything we nedded. Lyons Green is ideally situated to explore the beautiful north Norfolk coast as well as Norwich, Thetford Forest, the Broads, and the lovely town of Holt with its independent shops and lots of cafes etc. We have made some wonderful memories during our stay and the pictures really do not do the property justice. A fantastic time was had by all and we can't wait to go back!

Amazing Location Peaceful and quiet.

Very attentive hosts

We had a wonderful week at Lyons Green.

There were 4 adults and 3 children and Ben the dog. The house was very comfortable with plenty of room for us to spread out. The surroundings are very rural and beautiful. The two ponds were lovely with lots of wildlife. The carp are huge. It is a great spot for exploring Norfolk and we managed to get to Cromer, Norwich, Melsop Farm, Sandringham, Swaffham and Kings Lynn. The weather was very kind to us and Jenny was on hand and very helpful. Lots of things in the house for the children to do. We had a nice meal at The Canary and Linnet which is in the village although too far to walk but five minutes by car. I would highly recommend Lyons Green. Anne Marley and family.

We all enjoyed our stay at Lyons Green.

Everything about it was good. Just one point to mention is that it would have been nice if there was a complete board game to play! Just a small point on an otherwise enjoyable holiday. We took our dog and she was amazingly good. She was afraid of the fish in the lake and didn’t want to go near it

Beautiful house, in a lovely, peaceful setting.

Lots of wildlife to be seen. We saw deer, owls, swallows and a heron. Pond teeming with huge fish. We found it was a bit of a trek to everywhere but Norwich was nice, about 40 mins and the park and ride convenient. Lots to see, including the castle museum, cathedral and shops. Our son hired a canoe from the Pub and Paddle for an afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed it. Spent a day on a hire boat on the broads, another 40mins drive, but worth it when we got there. Several nice pubs along the rivers, but found that mooring places are a bit limited. All in all a great holiday house.

Exceptional location and exceptional help and support from Mrs mallon

Fantastic helpful host Jenny.

There was a welcome pack and fresh flowers on arrival. The house is amazing and I would recommend without hesitation.
