“An amazing little lodge, spotlessly clean & very comfortable.”

Very well equipped with everything you needed to cook a meal. Very relaxing watching the wildlife on the lovely big garden. Hot tub fantastic...Can't fault anything. We had such a chilled out break. Hosts are great, never bothered us but there when we needed them. Pub 5 minute walk away. More pubs & supermarkets a short drive away. Perfect

“Eugene and jane are great hosts.”

The welcome pack is a great addition. The property is beautiful and spotless. The hot tub is maintained every day when you are away so as not to intrude.

“Exceptional rental property.”

Everything you could possibly need for an enjoyable stay was provided. Hosts extremely helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Wildlife in the huge garden was lovely to watch with a glass of wine on the terrace in the evening(birds, rabbits, squirrels and deer). Hot tub was very welcome after a day exploring the area. Would definitely recommend this property and will certainly be returning. Thank you Jane & Eugene

“The lodge had every facility we could have hoped for and the owners, Eugene and Jane were always on hand if we had any queries.”

The accommodation was very comfortable and peaceful. The hot tub was very relaxing despite the 40 degree heatwave! The property was finished to a high standard as it was built just before Covid pandemic, so everything was brand new. I would definitely recommend SomePlace Else to anyone who wants a quiet break in Norfolk.

“Didn't want to leave!”

Tranquil and comfortable in a perfect setting. It was lovely to meet the owls and watch all the wildlife in the garden (deer, rabbits, squirrels, and lots of birds!) It's so peaceful and quiet here, it makes for a great night's sleep and stargazing in the hot tub is the best way the spend the evenings! Immaculately presented, has everything you need and the hosts are wonderful too. Can I move in, please?

Beautiful cabin, everything thought out perfectly, set in amazing surroundings. Loved sitting outside watching all the local wildlife - rabbits and squirrels on the lawn, Ozzie the owl and the lovely chickens. Spent a lot of the week talking to the animals!. Thanks to Eugene and Jane for their hospitality we’ve had a lovely week.

Beautiful lodge, beautiful setting. Eugene and Jane were brilliant host's. Sharon and Ozzie (the owls) were a hoot. We had lots of chats and even got to feed them. The wildlife in the garden was great to sit and watch. Already rebooked this amazing place . I would highly recommend Someplace Else.
