“Had a very relaxing stay, a little bit further out than where we usually stay but ideal for Broads and Wells (About 25 min) Plenty of areas for walking (Dog walking) Cottage well equipped with modern facilities, ideal for 2 / 4 people, two bathrooms and two large baths (one with over shower) plenty of room for off road parking.”

Plenty of local pubs (Not many dog friendly) plenty of grocery retail in the surrounding area. Very friendly owners, very helpful.

“The cottage information said there was a small enclosed garden.”

We booked because of this as we have a dog. There was not one. Instead there was a very small gravel yard across from the property and shared with the other house. It was not suitable. The property was also extremely noisy being next to a very busy road. It was too expensive for what it offered and should be offered as a budget type of holiday only. We left a day early due to the extreme traffic noise keeping us awake at night. We feel your information on the property should be more accurate and that the price should be reduced.

“Tricker's Cottage is a beautifully renovated barn, all fixtures and fittings are of a high standard and it is well furnished in a comfortable, contemporary style.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our week; there is an excellent gastro pub two minutes drive away, and its location means that the Norfolk Broads, the coast and everything in between are easily accessible. Joanne, the owner, was extremely welcoming and both she and her husband were available to help if needed - a problem with our water was resolved within minutes of alerting them to the matter. The admin for the holiday was professionally and efficiently managed by Sykes; we would recommend both the cottage and Sykes without hesitation, and plan to visit again in the future.

“The position of Trickers makes it the perfect location for touring round Norfolk, the road mentioned by some people didn't bother us.”

We've stayed with Sykes several times and Trickers is probably the best accommodation we've had, well thought out, everything we needed was available. We've had a lovely holiday with plenty to do, I would recommend the short drive to Morston Point and join a seal boat trip, this was brilliant but you do need to prebook. I have no hesitation in recommending Trickers.

“Lovely comfortable cottage located well for visiting the Broads and coastal areas.”

Mrs Theobald June 2021

“Tricker's Cottage is beautiful and so thoughtfully set out on 2 floors.”

It was really useful having a bathroom upstairs as well as downstairs especially during the night! There is a fabulous storage facility assigned to the cottage which we used to store our bikes and bike rack, with a further fridge if required, although we didn't need this as there were just the two of us. We went for a bike ride along part of the Marriot's Way which was lovely and shaded by the trees. We found the Bridge Inn pub and had refreshing drink before carrying on. We also visited The Parson Woodford Pub which is on the road opposite the cottage. It was fabulous, with friendly staff and delicious food; we even went back on our last morning for breakfast before heading home! We visited Cromer and walked along the pier before having a spot of lunch at the Kings Head pub which was really lovely. We also visited Alby's Craft and Gardens, Lenham Glass and Pensthorpe Natural Park. We had a short stay but it we did plenty of sightseeing and have lovely memories. Would definitely recommend this accommodation and would love to visit again in the future. Thank you Joanna and Darren.

Miss Findley November 2020

“Used this as a base for working away from home.”

Cottage was lovely, clean and tidy and catered for all our needs. Only downside was the noisy traffic from the main road, of which neither of us are used to. Would definitely recommend

- Miss Findley, November 2020
Dr Taylor October 2020

“Tricker's Cottage was extremely well kitted out, it was clear that a lot of thought was put into all of the furniture, facilities, kitchenware etc - there was everything you could need for a holiday stay.”

The bathrooms were of a very high spec and the huge free-standing bath was a lovely bonus. It was nice to find a place that actually welcomed dogs rather than just tolerated them! Good off-road parking, and it was fantastic to have great countryside walks straight from the doorstep. Would highly recommend.

- Dr Taylor, October 2020
Mrs Rowley October 2020

“Trickers Cottage was lovely.”

It was extremely clean and warm. The beds were very comfortable and good quality bedding and towels was used. The owner was very friendly and gave a lit if information about the surrounding area

“A well equipped cottage in a beautiful part of Norfolk.”

- Mr Gruner, September 2020
Mrs Lucas August 2020

“Perhaps it was mentioned in the ad but I did not notice it.”

The property is next to a very busy road. Whilst it is possible to take a dog for a walk up the lane near the property, I felt it was not very suitable for a dog. Whilst the is a pub nearby we did not feel it would be safe to walk to it due to having to walk along the road.

- Mrs Lucas, August 2020
Mr Keillor August 2020

“The cottage was fabulous, just the right size for the three of us.”

Very clean and well equipped, and close to everything we wanted to do, yet far enough away to feel remote. The owners were very welcoming and very helpful. All in all a very pleasant stay, and we will definitely be back here in the future

- Mr Keillor, August 2020
Mr Callaghan July 2020

“Very clean and well kept property, had everything you need to have a comfortable break.”

Location is great not too far from Norwich centre but also the coast. Brilliant hosts, went out their way to welcome and help us.

Miss Beautement February 2020

“Trickers Cottage is lovely, beautiful period features, fantastic bath upstairs, all the amenities you need, modern but with lots of character.”

Great location for exploring Norfolk and Jo was a wonderful host. Essentials all provided on arrival, underfloor heating on when we got there as well so really nice and cosy. Lovely countryside view from living room window. Nice and powerful shower, basically everything you need and had a great couple of nights away, will definitely be staying again.

“A clean, comfortable cottage that contains almost everything that travellers would need.”
