Well equipped with great pool
This property is very well equipped with generous provision of staples in the kitchen (herbs, spices, dish washer tablets etc). Most importantly though, the heated pool was very clean and kept to a very pleasant temperature - the kids were never out of it. Good pub within easy walking distance (though better in the drinks and garden departments than the food).

Wonderful break for all ages
Our family group ranged in age from 9mths to 70years plus dog and we all had a wonderful time. The accommodation was spacious, comfortable and very well equipped. Highlight was the swimming pool which we used at least twice a day. There were many great walks for the dog and the 5 yr old loved throwing poo sticks from the bridge into the ford nearby. Lots of bird life, so peaceful but only a few minutes drive to Holt, or walk if you prefer through the wood.(we were told it comes out at Budgens!). Letheringsett mill is 10 minutes walk, we did not manage to visit when open but apparently serves tea and cakes and well worth a visit. The seaside is a short drive away so lots to do nearby if you can get the children to leave the pool. Many thanks for an amazing holiday we will not forget.

Expensive for what you get .
My overall impression of the property was positive although some of the furniture is a bit tired, dated and uncomfortable , the cleaning of the property wasn’t as good as we would have expected , the kitchen floor ,hi chair & fridge door were not clean on arrival . The owner also needs to update the terms & conditions as we were phoned during our stay and ask not to charge our electric vehicle . I would also suggest a few more home comforts eg cushions & covers/blankets for the chairs as they were stained also extra toilet rolls as we ran out . To summarise we enjoyed our stay at the property but expected better value for money .

Great for multi generational families
Beautiful holiday cottage that is probably one of the best equipped that we have ever rented. Well positioned in a peaceful hamlet it has generous off road parking for two large vehicles. The annexe works very well allowing some peace and quiet in the main house. The pool is lovely and stayed warm even with the cloudy weather. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this cottage to family and friends.

The Old Stables is the perfect property, pool and location for a wonderful Norfolk holiday.
The Old Stables worked well for us, two families, one residing in the main house and myself and family in the annexe. We found the kitchen well equipped for cooking and enjoyed some meals around the huge table. The weather was warm and sunny during our stay and it was wonderful to use the pool every day. The pool is certainly this properties biggest asset. ( we did have some issues with wasps, my 3 year old niece was stung in the pool on our last day. The small fruit trees around the pool attract wasps and we all felt that the trees should be removed). The property is in a lovely quiet location but close to many attractions and beaches. We have no hesitation recommending The Old Stables and would love to stay again.
