“We had a lovely week at Cameron's Cottage.”

The hosts are very friendly and helpful as are the neighbours. We thought the cottage was really well equipped and it's location was great for exploring Norfolk.

Mark July 2023

“Had a lovely time in this beautiful cottage.”

The cottage itself is great and Jane and Brod were very helpful and friendly. The place was genuinely welcoming to dogs - which is not always so. Brod keeps the garden beautifully - we are pinching his cherry espalier idea! They introduced us to the idea of adding raw cider vinegar to the dog's water bowl to stop yellowing of the grass, and provided us with a bottle to use. A tip we will use back home.

“Lovely clean cottage and welcome pack a lovely gesture.”

The furniture is dated and could do with updating - the brown couch in particular as it seems to have lost its substance. Photos don't show how tight the parking is if all cottages are occupied. However owners accommodated our trailer and let us park it on site bearing in mind it was a small trailer. Owners live on site and their garden runs along back, also fence between cottage and next door is only 5ft approx in places hence garden very overlooked. Cottage description pet friendly but we were asked to put spoonful of apple cider vinegar in dogs water. This immediately indicated to us it was pet friendly with conditions. As this in cottage folder probably best to leave it at that and not mention to new arrivals. In conclusion a clean cottage on outskirts of Swaffham. Garden very overlooked so if you like privacy probably not for you.

Gillian March 2023

“The cottage was spotlessly clean, had everything we could wish for.”

Very friendly lady, the welcome pack was much appreciated. Only thing we would say is that the brown sofa has lost its seat padding so was not as comfortable as it once was. Apart from that we couldn’t fault anything.

- Gillian, March 2023

Kelly August 2020

“Cameron's Cottage was very much a home from home.”

It had everything we could have thought of needing. The kitchen was really well equipped if you did wish to cater for yourself - even down to a slow cooker for those winter stews after a day out. The fire was a real bonus for a cosy night in, although the cottage itself was lovely and warm. The owners are really friendly and on site which was a bonus to find out about local sites. The cottage itself is well positioned for a short stroll to local shops and pub but also to see most Norfolk sites. Lovely waking up to rabbits in the front field. Would definitely recommend.

- Kelly, August 2020
Tracey December 2019

“We spent a very chilled out New Year at this beautifully appointed and furnished cottage.”

In particular the sun lounge was a lovely and peaceful place to relax. We were greeted by the owner who very kindly left us bread, milk, biscuits, tea and coffee and a bottle of fizz to celebrate the New Year - all much appreciated. Having Netflix to watch was an unexpected surprise too. Lots of lovely places to visit nearby.

- Tracey, December 2019
Alison September 2019

“A really friendly greeting on arrival, complimentary bottle of wine, very nice.”

Beautiful cottage and excellent facilities, didn’t want to leave. Thanks so much for a lovely few days.

- Alison, September 2019
Sally August 2019

“Friendly owners made us welcome.”

Cottage was walking distance into Swaffham.

- Sally, August 2019
Mary August 2019

“This is a compact and cosy cottage which is well equipped.”

The welcome pack was a great touch and Jane and her husband were really friendly and helpful. We had lovely weather so made good use of the sun room. The garden and terrace were very pretty but very open to next door’s garden. I would recommend this cottage as it’s comfortable and in a good location for touring Norfolk. It could, however, do with some updating, especially of the bathroom and double bedroom wardrobe.

- Mary, August 2019
