Perfect location in the middle of Norfolk as we wanted to cover all of the County day to day. A lovely couple who would do anything for you. Lovely Cottage, very clean except a little dust on the bathroom floor in the corners, but as everywhere else was spotless then presume their cleaners accidentally missed. The little accessories they provided was very impressive, we weren’t expecting, it the little things that count. They make you feel as comfortable at the cottage than you would be at home with the quality, not like other accommodations where you get cheap rubbish. Overall.....a big 5\* and I would definite look to book at Glen Cottage if we do Norfolk again. And I forgot the dog too, if you have a doggy, they provide for you dog too, which is tops...! ?????? ##### Si This review is from a guest who booked and stayed through a partner site and can't be verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jun 16, 2019 #### A really relaxing holiday in a a real country location.

We had a wonderfully relaxing week in this Cottage. One of the best we have stayed in. The location overlooks fields, has its own parking space and was very quiet. The welcome was so genuine and the freshly baked bread was delicious. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts. The furniture was comfortable, it was spotlessly clean with all the equipment you could need. We were able to use the garden which was a great bonus. Many places to visit that were close by. Some we revisited and still more new experiences. And at the end of the day ..a perfect bed to sleep in. We shall return. ##### Christine This review is from a guest who booked and stayed through a partner site and can't be verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cosmin Mar 20, 2019 #### We felt very welcoming, comfortable and relaxed.
