Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our break at The Cottage and enjoyed the flowers, wild life and the area in general. Thank you for the edible goodies you left for us. Also for the clear instructions on how to find Stubbs Barn. Norfolk and Suffolk are beautiful counties. We also managed a bit of Family History at Lowestoft Record Office.. Best Wishes from Ruth and Clive.

Summary: The lodge is perfect for a get away from anywhere and everyone. You have your private garden and look out onto the fields in front. There is a gravel drive to you lodge and plenty of parking. Lodge well equipped with T&C provided and the host very kindly made bread, left butter, milk and homemade jam or not forgetting the fresh eggs. They have chickens, ducks and geese, which are all kept secure, and no you dont hear the cockerill in the morning. There is under floor heating and believe me it, its plenty warm enough in the lodge. The TV is a little smaller than we are used too, but you do have access to many channels plus a DVD player. We had a christmas tree in the room which was lovely and made it all feel very cosy. Towels and bed linen all good quality. You have a supply of cleaning materials in the lodge already, washing tablets, dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid etc etc . JUst make sure you go into Loddon across the road. There are plenty of places to visit: The Angel is lovely, The Swan is a great pub, but has a great restaurant upstairs with good quality food give it a go.
