Dating back over 300 years, Moor Farm Cottage (ref UKC3734) has a lovely open fire to relax around, and Church Farm Barn (ref UKC3739) offers a cosy wood burner.
Keen fisherman will enjoy the on-site lakes and ponds, and fishing is included in your stay so there are no supplements to pay; also included is access to the children’s play area so you really won’t have to venture too far to have a great holiday. If you can tear yourself away, you will find yourself in Wells-next-the-Sea in just under half an hour. Here there is a lovely mix of artisan and traditional seaside shops, restaurants, cafés, pubs and amusements. There is also a narrow gauge railway that takes you to the gorgeous wide, sandy beach and a much photographed quay. Equidistant is the bustling coastal market town of Sheringham, with Sheringham Park, North Norfolk Railway and two museums. Head along the coast and visit Cromer with its famous Edwardian seafront and pier. Travel east or west along this stunning coastline and you will find a chain of pretty seaside towns and villages offering marshes, beaches and quays. Make time for a trip to the medieval city of Norwich, with its splendid Norman castle, museums and guided ghost walks. Go shopping in the Norwich Lanes, alleyways of colourful independent shops, and then enjoy a meal, perhaps before taking in a show at one of the theatres. Norwich is just a 30-minute drive but there are also very good park and ride links. Beach 20½ miles. Shop 1 mile, pub and restaurant 2 miles.

Could be nice property but major TLC needed. Bedding is very poor and new beds needed. Small room ceiling is falling down, badly stained from leaks in above bathrooms. Bathrooms need showers fitted properly and bath sealant sorting out. Ivy growing into main bedroom. None of the doors close properly. Kitchen very dated, under sink is rotten. Dish washer needs sorting. Needs more kitchen equipment. I thought we were in a courtyard with swimming pool and children's play area. Not so we were further up the lane so lot of noise from busy road. Pool was fine. Children's play area dangerous, rotten, trampoline broken! I was very disappointed especially what I paid for half term. I have owned holiday let's and I would not let out a property the way this one is let out. Would I recommend? Definitely not, not until it is brought up to a good standard.
This property is part of many cottages. Most are within the confines of Moor Farm which is a copmplex with a play area, some animals, a swimming pool and a fishing lake. Church Farm Barn is about 0.4 miles away and along a tight single lane road which would be hard to walk down with the kids in tow. Still, manageable, but we mistakenly thought it was all on site.
The property was lovely, a peacful setting and large property which is very comfortable for 8. The property was just left unlocked for us to arive, this is a bit odd as I wanted to check the property fully to make sure noone was waiting as a surpsie! Surely a key safe would be a cheap option here.
The boiler wasnt working properly for us but a call the the out of hours mobile and a friendly plumber arrived within the hour to release the air lock and put pressure back in the system for it to operate. Unfortunately the same thing happened the following day. This may have just been unfortunate and to be fair to the management the response was quick and friendly.
Overall, a lovely countryside retreat which would do for 3 or 4 couples, or two families with kids. Would stay again.
We stayed for two weeks post lockdown and were worried the holiday wouldn’t be great. We could not have been more wrong! Gorgeous, spacious house. The photos do NOT do it justice. Prepare to be wowed! Pool was clean, warm and easy to access as were the facilities. The village is gorgeous (you have to walk through it to get from the house to the farm) and we picked up the most divine cherry tomatoes everyday from a family on our walk. Everyone is mega friendly in the area and the people running it couldn’t have been more lovely or more helpful.
You must bring your own soap, toilet paper etc as there is a small amount but not a lot.
To summarise, we loved it! Our only downside (which is small) was that the garden is an unfenced front garden and is surrounded by a driveway to multiple houses and leads onto a busy road. We have an active 2 year old and spent our holiday running around after her which wasn’t very relaxing.
Thank you for a wonderful stay in a beautiful part of the world.
