Reviews

Lovely cottage in a great area. Spotlessly clean and a lovely garden. Very quiet location with easy access to other areas.

Mr G,

Excellent cottage in a quiet spot, yet accessible to the coast and popular spots.

Mr B,

Beautiful, well equipped cottage in a very peaceful location. The garden in particular is superb - generous size and very pretty. This has to be one of the best cottages we've stayed at in the UK and we would definitely return here if ever back in Norfolk. You will not be disappointed!

Miss T,

Lovely cottage, very peaceful. Nice comfy bed. Loads of places to visit. Went to some of the nature reserves like Sculthorpe Moor and Pensthorpe. Parked at Blakeney and walked to Cley next the sea. Very nice bakers at Blakeney. Definitely go back again and recommend. Only downer was the weather which stopped us making the most of the garden supposed to be summer.

Mr P,

Had a lovely time and would stay there again. We saw a hare staring in at us through the main window on two occasions and also had the delight of seeing a deer with the tiniest baby you could ever have seen. Magical.

Mr S,

Lovely character features in the cottage, nice secluded location

Mrs W,

We were very happy with lilac cottage, clean tidy and everything was there that we could possibly have needed. Enjoyed our stay and hopefully will go back again if only to see the farm animals. thankyou very much.

Mrs B,

Lilac cottage was lovely. Its a very peaceful location on a farm but ideal to visit many areas in North Norfolk. The enclosed garden was great for our two young children to run around in safety. The cottage was clean and provided us with everything we needed. The owner was very kind in sending on an item my son left behind and was always quick to answer my messages. Thank you so much for a lovely holiday.

Mrs W,

A beautiful cottage situated in lovely countryside. Very quiet. Beautiful garden and seating area outside.

Mr S,

We have really enjoyed our stay in liac cottage, ideal for families, with a enclosed garden area. We enjoyed most late afternoon/evenings in the garden playing. The cottage was well equipped for a young families needs with stair gate/ High chair etc. The cottage is surrounded by beautiful countryside ideal for explorers or time/space to relax. The location is great to explore North Norfolk too.
