“We hadn't intended to book such a large property for 2 adults and an elderly dog but, when it became available, we decided to go for it!”

We were not disappointed and didn't 'rattle' around in the property. The layout allows you to 'shut off' unrequired rooms (for us one twin-bedded room) and dining room if so desired, but we made use of the facilities, didn't need for anything from kitchen utilities to room fans [the weather was hot!] and just enjoyed the extra space! The shared lawn and designated parking space in an open garage were a luxury! We often sat outside to enjoy a coffee in the morning sun! We were pleased to see the ...

We were not disappointed and didn't 'rattle' around in the property. The layout allows you to 'shut off' unrequired rooms (for us one twin-bedded room) and dining room if so desired, but we made use of the facilities, didn't need for anything from kitchen utilities to room fans [the weather was hot!] and just enjoyed the extra space! The shared lawn and designated parking space in an open garage were a luxury! We often sat outside to enjoy a coffee in the morning sun! We were pleased to see the recycling arrangements were clear and comprehensive. The cottage is ideally located for walking into Swaffham for groceries and local amenities. Larger supermarkets are a short drive away and Swaffham makes a good base for driving to the coast and other attractions. We will definitely be back.

“Lovely cottage will definitely stay here again (as have family in the next village) Very comfortable beds, great bathroom upstairs and handy loo downstairs too Kitchen well equipped with everything you need Covered parking area very handy Nice that towels, bedding, tea towels, tea, coffee, sugar, milk and biscuits provided for our arrival.”

Really enjoyed our break, nice village to stay in with plenty places to eat out and a great base for exploring Norfolk. My only complaint would be that the glasses and cups in the cupboard were dirty so had to wash them before we used them but otherwise would highly recommend manor farm cottage

“The hospitality of rosemary with the help she gave me with my dog.”

- Mrs Hynes, July 2019
“This cottage is beautifully decorated with everything we could need for a relaxed stay.”

It's particularly well equipped for families with young children with toys and games and even plastic crockery. We would definitely recommend it.

- Miss Billinge, May 2019
“The whole package was more than we expected.”

Property was beautiful, the essentials where provided for arrival and the use of domestic items. The owners where very approachable, helpful, professional people who ensured your stay was accommodated for. The directions where true to the property. I would definitely recommend, they appear to have a row of let's depending on party size. First time booking. Was not let down. There is also a Lovely cottage style cafe and Old Mother Hubbard's fish & chip shop in the market Square for time out. No complaints, Thank you.

- Mrs Marsden, April 2019
“Cottage was bigger than expected, clean, comfortable and well equipped.”

Everything was to a high standard Enjoyed being in the centre of Swaffham and great to have parking

- Mr Cope, November 2018
“First class cottage in excellent location.”

Plenty of room and well equiped cottage. Easy to find in a convenient location for the town, and quiet in doors despite being on a main road. Communal garden in a row of 3 cottages, parking shared with permanent resident in end cottage who was rather unfriendly but not the fault of owner! We had a great 3 night stay while walking the Peddars way. Highly recommended

- Dr Bromley, September 2018
“Brilliant cottage - had everything a family with 2 young girls and a dog could need!”

Friendly owners and the cottage provided a good and comfortable base for exploring the North Norfolk coast and also within walking distance to Swaffham which has an array of shops, pubs, restaurants and supermarkets.

- Mr Conway, September 2018
“We had no hot running water after the second day due to a fault on the combination boiler but in fairness Mr.”

Ison came round to try and remedy the situation but was unable to do so! We found the double bed very uncomfortable and requires a new mattress also we found the lighting on the upper floor absolutely dismal, brighter bulbs required all round in bathroom and bedrooms! This is a very nice cottage but let down by easily addressed minor faults(PLUS NO HOT WATER) Stan and Pat Stevenson.

- Mr Stevenson, September 2018

I am sorry to hear you experienced boiler and maintenance issues during your stay at the cottage. We want you to have all advertised facilities on our website and we strive on having exceptional property standards in all Sykes’ properties. We will investigate the issues with the property owner to establish why our service has fell short on this occasion. This is not our usual expectation and would like to assure you that your issues are being handled. If you would to discuss this further, our lines are open 7 days a week from 9am until 7pm.

- Mrs Hughes, June 2018
“Beautiful cottage with lots of outside space, and close to the market and local shops.”

Well restored and with all amenities. Lovely owner, who came to check that we had everything we needed and very friendly neighbours. Easy access to all areas of North Norfolk. We fully enjoyed our weekend away.

- Ms Pedersen, May 2018
“Beautiful cottage, extremely well furnished with very comfortable beds, plenty of good quality towels & linen.”

The kitchen was fully stocked with super china, glassware etc. The comfortable sitting & separate dining room were spacious & accomodated 6 easily. The cottage was immaculately clean & we were treated to a welcome pack (tea, sugar etc) . Easy parking & close the centre of town it was perfect.

- Mrs Simpson, April 2018
“We visited the cottage in extremely cold weather but the accommodation was warm, comfortable and well equipped.”

Situated opposite a wonderful old church, we had the marvellous spectacle of a murmuration of Starlings settling down into the churchyard at dusk each evening.

- Mrs Reid, March 2018
“Very cpmfortable cottage which acted as as excellent base for our family history research in the area.”
