    “Our hosts were friendly and welcoming and the property was spotless when we arrived.”

    We much appreciated the milk in the fridge, and the biscuits. There was a well supplied kitchen with plenty of pans and extas like a cake tray and cheese grater (the sign of a good holiday cottage!). We got caught out slightly by the fridge as in the door can only hold 2 pint bottles of milk, but we improvised and used the salad drawer for 4 pint bottles. The weather wasn't kind enough for us to be able to use the patio area, but there are comfy looking seats and a table, with a small awning ...

The weather wasn't kind enough for us to be able to use the patio area, but there are comfy looking seats and a table, with a small awning over some of them. We had a great stay as the house is close (but not too close) to the A11 and therefore Norwich, Thetford etc. and Old Buckenham has its own windmill, castle and huge village green to explore.
