    “The decor, furnishings and fittings of the cottage - the Hay Barn - could not have been to a higher, more tasteful standard.”

    Parking was convenient to the cottage, which is set in beautifully maintained grounds, complete with stream running through gardens featuring a 'Japanese' footbridge. The surrounding area is tranquil, disturbed only by a low hum of traffic along the distant A47 and, in early evening, occasional overhead visitors from nearby RAF and USAF airbases. Our only regret is that we had booked for four nights. It should have been a lot longer to fully enjoy this delightful holiday rental and its wealth ...

    Parking was convenient to the cottage, which is set in beautifully maintained grounds, complete with stream running through gardens featuring a 'Japanese' footbridge. The surrounding area is tranquil, disturbed only by a low hum of traffic along the distant A47 and, in early evening, occasional overhead visitors from nearby RAF and USAF airbases. Our only regret is that we had booked for four nights. It should have been a lot longer to fully enjoy this delightful holiday rental and its wealth of attractions - zoo and Broads - just a short distance away.

Swaffham 5 miles; Dereham 6 miles; Norwich 22 miles.

The thriving village of Necton is situated at the heart of Norfolk, between the market towns of Swaffham and Dereham, and hosts a welcoming pub with restaurant, a village store with butcher’s and a post office, whilst an impressive Norman church dominates the village and boasts a beautiful carved oak communion table dating back to 1086 and a wonderful Jacobean pulpit. Visit Bradenham Hall, a fine Georgian house with over 27 acres of beautiful gardens and arboretum, reputed to have been visited by Lord Nelson, or enjoy the infamous Peddars Way and the Norfolk Coastal Path, offering 93 tranquil miles of picturesque Norfolk countryside close by, great for walking, cycling and horse riding.
