“Very private location and very secure.”

Great attention has been taken to ensure guests have their own space and surroundings. The proprietors have gone some lengths to achieve this. All the same, during the little contact we had with the owners we found them to be very friendly and helpful and keen for us to have an enjoyable time. The accommodation itself is excellent with some really nice touches. It was perfect for my wife and I and especially our dog with excellent walks in either direction.

The accommodation itself is excellent with some really nice touches. It was perfect for my wife and I and especially our dog with excellent walks in either direction. Morrisons supermarket is a mere 10 minutes walk away and all Norfolk attractions are within the hour. Google maps was really useful to transverse the new Norwich northern perimeter road.. It's a strong recommendation if you want to explore the area and somewhere your dog will enjoy if you have one..

“The Lodge was lovely.”

Much of the weather was cold and wet and it was great to go off exploring the coast knowing we would have a cosy and welcoming place to return to. Although the Lodge is close to the city, it is surrounded by fields, very quiet and beautiful. If you want to explore Norwich, the Lodge makes an excellent base.
Mrs Horne October 2019

“We love the relaxed feel of Foxley Lodge.”

It has every thing needed to make you comfortable, has an open feel and the bonus of being near to Norwich. It is a good spot for drives to the many scenic spots in Norfolk and is close to the park and rides from which Norfolk city is only a few minutes away.
Mrs Bailey October 2019

“Lovely cottage .”

Spotless clean nicely decorated the heating does a good job . . Great place to explore Norfolk most places within 20 miles . Dog friendly garden a bonus no way a four legged explore could escape .
Mr Hall August 2019

“Cottage very nice and comfortable, could do with a bigger freezer compartment and general instructions on how to use cooker and washing machine/.”

good base for touring Norwich. very close to supermarket and a good Chinese, but quite a long walk to nearest pub. saying this we would return.

“Just a personal note that having a large bed at home we found the bed in the cottage a little small for us however we did manage and the airplane noise did not have a negative effect.”
Mrs Pitman July 2019

“This was a lovely cottage, beautifully decorated and very peaceful.”

I don't think we could fault it. Very comfortable and spacious. We had some lovely days out, all close by. A great place to stay.

“It was an amazing location ...”

It was an amazing location Very private 10 minutes walk to the supermarket Handy location for everywhere Amazing layout of property
Mrs Dean May 2019

“This property is a very nice size for 2 people and has good facilities which include a washing machine if you should need it and an enclosed garden.”

There are a couple of things that let it down though, the aircraft which start to take off at 6.30 every morning and the very squeaky staircase. The bathroom is downstairs so if one of you need to visit it during the night you cannot help but disturb the other one.
Mr Bush January 2019

“We chose to go away on the coldest week in the year trooping round remote burial sites (things some do for fun) so it was so good to return to a nice warm cosy cottage.”

The owners couldn't have been better, just the right amount of contact to make sure all's well. The cottage is extremely well placed for exploring a wide area, many pubs serving good & fair priced meals through out the day, we live in a very quiet & rural area-and are 'light' sleepers-the near by airport did not disturb us in any way. Recommended.

“We had a great Christmas at Foxley Lodge, well equipped, warm and cosy, so peaceful.”

Great location. Owners really helpful and friendly. Loved the Christmas tree and Presents.
Mr Smallwood November 2018

“Friendly owners who were keen to give help when needed and left a welcome pack.”

The heating was good and plenty of hot water.

“Quiet cottage”

Foxley Lodge is very quiet and well placed for exploring lots of Norfolk. We enjoyed trips to lots of beaches as well as Norwich itself and even down to Framlingham in Suffolk from this base. It is close to a supermarket but felt like it was in the countryside, which was really nice and very quiet and peaceful. The owner greeted us on arrival and seemed like a very nice chap; we were then left to enjoy the property for the week. The cottage is compact but well furnished with shabby chic furniture and two big sofas, which we really appreciated. The kitchen has enough in it to let you cook whatever you want, within reason, and the shower room was functional. The garden is very secure for even the smallest dogs, and ours enjoyed investigating thoroughly. The wide gate has an extra guard to slot into place so that there really is no way for an enterprising pooch to wiggle through or under. There are no views at all from the cottage though, which is something to be aware of. You are also very close to another holiday property from the same owners and if sat outside you can hear each other quite plainly without effort. We felt the biggest plus was how clean and nicely presented the property was. We found the cottage handy, well equipped and very comfortable downstairs but struggled to sleep - the bedroom seems light and airy but isn’t well ventilated enough to cope in the heatwave and was very hot and stuffy. This in addition to quite thick duvet and pretty inconsequential pillows. The stairs also creak very badly making it impossible to take a trip downstairs to the toilet in the night without waking your partner. We had a good stay but probably wouldn’t return in the future due to this issue - on holiday you want to be well rested but we came home pretty tired from a lack of quality sleep.

“Very relaxing retreat for two and the dog”

Had a lovely restful week and took our dog for his eighth birthday, he spent the week outside on the decking. Nice walks and a nice pub in Horsham St FAith. Just sat peacefully in the lounge and drunk coffee what away to spend your time. The owners were very friendly but left you to enjoy the week. The local area was quiet and the people were all friendly. Supermarket in walking distance. The aeroplanes were so low and close but never caused any real noise or issues,quite enjoyable. Didnt want to leave to be honest and will be back later in the year as we plan to go a few times a year if we can,

“A wonderful week's holiday”

Beautifully furnished and equipped cottage. Perfect location for visiting most of the county of Norfolk. A great pet friendly cottage, with completely secure garden, especially the added gate guard for smaller dogs. My partner and I had a very relaxing week in this lovely cottage, woken only by the dawn chorus and the odd plane landing at the nearby airport. Would highly recommend this property.

“Wonderful!”

Just returned from a weeks stay in Foxley Lodge. What a find! Lovely location, super cottage very tastefully furnished and decorated. We loved the enclosed and private garden meaning we could let our dog out without fear of him escaping (he's only small!) The extra fencing on the bottom of the gate was brilliant, especially if you visit with a smaller dog. A great location for visiting the Norfolk Broads and not far from the coast and pretty little Norfolk towns and villages. A few aircraft and helicopters fly overhead as the airport is close by, however these never bothered us at all. A real gem of a find and will highly recommend!

“A wonderful weeks stay at Foxley Lodge”

Lovely lodge in a really nice spot private and quiet just an occasional plane overhead as it is not far from the airport. The lodge is well laid out with all modern items installed. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Close to Norwich and not far from Cromer and Yarmouth. The lodge is lovely and clean and well looked after.
