    “Although we enjoyed our stay very much we did find that some of the things were lacking ie graters, bread knife which was a little annoying.”

    However the main issue was general cleanliness particularly in the kitchen regarding pans and some of the mugs. It would benefit from a proper clean (which should include the window frames and generally the shower).

    Thank you very much for taking the time to leave your feedback. I’m really pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay, and I’m sorry that some aspects of the kitchen and general cleanliness didn’t meet your expectations. Just to reassure you, all of the mugs were cleaned on the 1st of June — I did this personally as I wanted to check the kitchen myself. We also have two frying pans available: one that’s more heavily used, and a cast‑iron pan for guests who prefer that style of cooking. Even so, I’ll be reviewing all of the kitchen equipment to make sure everything feels consistently fresh and guest‑ready. Thank you as well for highlighting the items you felt were missing, such as the graters and bread knife. I’ll make sure these are added so future guests have everything they need. I appreciate your comments about the window frames and the shower too. I’ll ensure these areas receive a more thorough clean going forward. Your feedback is genuinely helpful, and I’m grateful you took the time to share it. It will certainly support me in continuing to improve the experience for future guests. Property Owner

About the location

HEACHAM

Hunstanton 2.5 miles; King's Lynn 15 miles.

Heacham is a large village located on the West Norfolk coastline, on The Wash, boasting a lovely family friendly sandy beach, ideal for jet skis, kitesurfing and windsurfing. The village has many cottages built from Carstone, which is a feature of this part of Norfolk, and also offers a good range of shops, restaurants and country pubs. Within walking distance is Caley Hall, home to Norfolk Lavender with its sweet smelling lavender fields, and Heacham Hall, owned by John Rolfe, who brought his young bride Pocahontas to England to live at the hall (in the local church of St Mary you will find a memorial to her). This part of Norfolk is renowned for its abundance of birdlife throughout the year, with several local RSPB sites, while within easy driving distance is Pensthorpe Nature Reserve and Gardens, as seen on BBC's Springwatch. Nearby Hunstanton offers traditional seaside entertainment including a sealife centre, while The Queen's Sandringham Estate is just a 15 minute drive.
