“Spacious, clean, and well-equipped accommodation in a great location.”

Easy walking distance to grocery stores, while there are plenty of coastal and other walks a short drive away. Host was helpful and responsive to questions. Would highly recommend!

“It was disappointing to find that there was a notice when we arrived telling us not to use the bath because of it being out of order.”

This should have been advised to us before we took up the accommodation, particularly as a bath was required for the elderly and child members of our group. We feel that at least a discount should have been offered to us. Also, it was found impossible to get a full night's sleep in the downstairs bedroom because of its glass door allowing too much light into the room and also the noise of the plumbing from the main en suite upstairs which was disturbingly loud in the downstairs bedroom. The property also felt somewhat overlooked and within easy hearing distance when sitting in the garden due to the close proximity of neighbours. We would also suggest that a bigger fridge is needed for a house that takes up to 8 people.

- Jean, August 2022

It was unfortunate about the bath and I am sorry as this was short notice to my knowledge I could not get a plumber to deal with it straight away after previous holiday makers had left a new set of taps had to be fitted as taps would not shut off completly this is now rectified Two ample showers were available for your use Black out blinds and curtains are in the downstairs annexe The property is in a quiet residential area with an enclosed garden Property Owner
Gill August 2022

“We had a wonderful holiday at The Twickle.”

We were a group with young children and dogs and we felt that everyone was very well accommodated - the wine and biscuit starter pack was a nice touch! It felt very spacious and was well equipped with crockery, glassware, cupboard space etc. plus everything we needed for the week including tea towels, dishwasher tablets, soap etc. A great location for day trips all around Norfolk. For those with children we'd thoroughly recommend Bewilderwood, Wroxham barns and Walcott beach. Thank you for a lovely stay!

- Gill, August 2022

I am so pleased your stay at the Twickle was a good one for you and your family Look forward to having you stay again in the future Property Owner
Elaine July 2022

“On arrival there was a smell in the kitchen of rotten cheese on opening the fridge and taking out compartment at the bottom there was all rotten milk, had to clean fridge out and microwave before using them cooker hadn’t been cleaned, all cupboards to store food needed wiping out ,all bedroom cupboards had spiders and cobwebs in them so didn’t use them, beds upstairs uncomfortable , sofa uncomfortable could do with an update all round not the best place I’ve stayed and I come to Norfolk every year.”

- Elaine, July 2022
Brian July 2022

“We had a lovely stay here.”

Great location for a family (included 2 children under 6, 2 grandparents and 4 adults). Close enough to everywhere that we didn't need to spend a long time driving to anywhere. Facilities were good, garden was enough, conservatory was lovely. Kitchen and living room/dining was spacious enough. A really lovely property

- Brian, July 2022

Many thanks for your lovely comments It pieases me that you all had a great time at the Twickle Look forward to your return when in Norfolk again Property Owner

“Great house worked well for us Great for the dogs with garden and good walks ...”

Great house worked well for us Great for the dogs with garden and good walks around really good base to travel from nothing more than 45 mins away like Great Yarmouth to Sheringham

- Andrew, May 2022

So pleased the house and garden worked well for you all and the dogs I agree we are very central for the coast and city with very good travel links Hope to see you all again at the Twickle Property Owner

“Television reception was spasmodic, picture would pixalate, actually lost signal completely on Sunday night for about 15 minutes, in middle of Peaky Blinders.”

Perhaps a Smart TV would be an improvement.

- Stephen, March 2022
Paula February 2022

“We had a thoroughly enjoyable weekend at The Twickle.”

There was plenty of room for the family and dog to spread out, and the facilities were well laid out.

- Paula, February 2022

It pleases me to read that you had an enjoyable weekend stay at the Twickle with your family and dog would love to see you come back to the Twickle on another family occasion Property Owner

“Fantastic location, walking distance to town, supermarket and train station.”

Very spacious, it could be cleaner and needs updating.

- Dawn, September 2021
Colin September 2021

“The 3 seater sofa was so uncomfortable we had to use conservatory chairs which were slightly better.”

As we were all in our sixties comfort in the evening is very important to us. The en-suite upstairs is lovely but be careful as on two levels the owner does provide a torch for night time visits,very thoughtful.The bed is really comfy.However the second bed upstairs you can feel the springs. Nice cottage for a family.There is the town centre 10 mins walk away with a Lidl and a lovely park for children and dogs. The cottage garden at the back is fully enclosed so ideal for dogs.

- Colin, September 2021
Carl September 2021

“This is a great house in a great location with all the things you need.”

Kitchen is well stocked and plenty of space with dishwasher. For a 4 bed house the fridge/freezer is rather small. We managed to get Tesco delivery direct to the house on day of arrival but there is a Lidl close by, as well as a great little park for the kids. The rear garden of the house is nicely kept and has some lovely wild flowers including rosemary and lavender, with plenty of seating and a small BBQ. The bedrooms are a mix with a small double on the ground floor but 2 further spacious doubles on the first floor and a twin (with 1 very creaky single). North Walsham is great location for travelling to the beaches to other days out. We did Sea Palling, Great Yarmouth, ROAR and Pettits - all less than 30 mins drive away. Lovely place would recommend.

“Our second visit to The Twickle, and another relaxing stay again.”

Great location for visiting the north Norfolk coastline, which are dog friendly much to the delight of our Jack Russell. Plenty of room and well equipped for all our needs, a very comfortable stay. Recommended to all dog lovers, walkers and beach goers and those looking for a comfortable quiet time.

Lynne May 2021

“The Twickle was a wonderful holiday house to stay.”

Extremely comfortable in all areas of the house. Beds especially comfortable. Everything you need no matter how long your stay. We had a slight issue which was literally sorted within 15 mins by the owners. Would definitely recommend, also very central to lots of interesting places to visit. Thank you very much Mary and Ed.

“Our holiday at The Twickle exceeded our expectations.”

It was very spacious, homely and in the perfect location for exploring the beaches and countryside.

- Lesley, August 2020
Jonathan July 2020

“A lovely house in a nice, safe neighbourhood.”

Easy access to lots of beaches and, of course, Wroxham. The house is lovely with equipment well beyond most others. There really is everything you need and more. One snag was the timing of the hot water. We’ve stayed in many cottages and are used to central heating being timed but not hot water. There is a tank of hot water, on storage, for showers e.t.c after 10am but as late risers with 7 in the house this did catch us out one day. The house is Only 15 minutes to a host of fabulous beaches and to Wroxham, the main base for the Broads. We’d highly recommend to anyone with a need for space and comfort.

- Jonathan, July 2020
Elaine August 2019

“Great holiday home, very comfortable, spacious, mostly well equipped, large baking trays for a roast dinner in the kitchen would have been good but otherwise home from home.”

Great for the dogs.

- Elaine, August 2019
Mark June 2019

“Great location in North Walsham for travelling around the broads and the north coast.”

Dog friendly as well which was great too. Highly recommended.

- Mark, June 2019
Alan June 2019

“A well kept property with plenty of room and features for a family holiday.”

North Walsham is a pleasant town with plenty of amenities. The train station is within walking distance of the property with a good service to the surrounding area. Norwich is just a 30 minute train ride away.

“The Twickle was a fabulous house which accommodated 4 adults, 4 children and 2 dogs with room to spare!”

Great location for woodland and beach walks. Lidl and Sainsburys just down the road. 5 min walk to lovely park which was great for kids and dogs.

- Susan, October 2018
Vanessa October 2018

Paul August 2018

“Had a great week here with family, the property was clean and well equipped, just like home from home.”

There was a large Lidl store just up the road from the property also close by are Sainsbury and Waitrose. There is also a choice of takeaways within the town. North Walsham is well situated to access most of North Norfolk and is only 15 minutes from a nice beach at Mundesley. We would certainly have no hesitation in staying there again
