“Lovely lodge in peaceful surroundings.”

“Lovely secluded property with good view.”

Very warm and comfortable. A few minor points that let down full score - no hairdryer, no teapot (we used the caffetiere) and the fridge with freezer compartment is rather small for a family. Better with separate fridge and freezer. No microwave cooking dishes or casserole dish. A wooden stirring spoon would have been useful too. Would certainly stay again however.

“POSITIVES Absolutely delighted with our recent stay at Chestnut Lodge, we stay in lodges and cottages at least twice a year and I have to say this is the cleanest accommodation.”

I cannot stress enough the level of cleanliness in this lodge, it smelt so welcoming. The kitchen was lovely and all the crockery were clearly new and matched, small point but I did appreciate the aesthetics of matching dinner sets! Sofa and chair very comfortable. Location was great, isolated which is what we wanted. Spencer was very informative about the horses and great to chat to. DOG FRIENDLY If you have a dog and are considering renting here are some additional tips. The Gamekeeper pub/restaurant is about a 20 min walk, dog friendly (really friendly) excellent food and service. There is a large village green should you wish to throw a ball about 10 minutes away. And we visited Old Buckenham Country Park on one of our walks and enjoyed a hot drink and treats overlooking the lake. NEGATIVE The double bed is small, bedroom hot and bed uncomfortable. Was difficult getting the grill to work, only way to manage was by turning the timer on. A laminated sheet with simple instructions would be helpful to future guests.

“A beautiful lodge very clean and a wonderful location.”

The gentleman who owns the horses was great fun and we had many a lovely chat with him, he even tried to teach us some norfolk.

“We had a lovely time from the beginning to the end of our holiday at Solar Rise.”

The setting is stunning, with views across the Norfolk countryside, looking on to horse paddocks and fields. We found the accommodation well presented, clean and modern. Light and airy with high ceilings and double doors opening onto a balcony which takes advantage of the views. It was very reassuring to have the owners of the lodge next door, although we had no cause for concern it was so reassuring that they were there and so friendly and accommodating. We would definitely recommend Solar Rise and the two lodges as an excellent holiday location. The nearby village of Old Buckingham is a ten to fifteen minute walk away, where there is a handy village shop and two pubs.

“Had a fantastic holiday in this beautiful lodge.”

So good we’ve been twice this year. Pretty well equipped and spotlessly clean. The views looking out across the open countryside is the perfect place to relax. Loads of walks on your doorstep and a couple of pubs nearby. Loved the interaction with Jeremy who owns the horses which are in the paddock in front of the lodge and meeting the owners who are really friendly. We can’t wait to go back. If you love walking, it’s a lovely area to explore. Only one tiny negative was that we thought it could have had a bigger bed in the double bedroom. Other than that, perfect

“Enjoyed our stay v much, accommodation was spotless and comfortable, v relaxing.”

Found it difficult when it was time to go. Having the owners nearby was helpful, especially on arrival. Sitting on the outside space was also very relaxing, if you want some peace and countryside views this lodge is perfect.
