    “Duck house is a lovely place to stay, very comfortable and quiet.”

    The kitchen is on the small side and could do with a bit more worktop area, but it's perfectly functional. The parking space is at the end of the cottage, which is fine, apart from the fact that telephone wires cross this area and the numerous pigeons tend to sit on them and every morning the car was covered in pigeon droppings, so be prepared to start your morning by clearing them off the car. Apart from that, Duck House is a lovely place to stay.

About the location

WATTON

Swaffham 10 miles; Thetford 15 miles; Norwich 23 miles.

The well-served market town of Watton is in the district of Breckland, just less than 25 miles from Norwich. Perfectly positioned for access to the whole of Norfolk and North Suffolk, this town is thought to be where the 'Babes in the Wood' were abandoned in Wayland Wood. You will see on the town sign that there are two babes, and a hare jumping over the barrel reflecting the town name; wat being the local dialect word for hare, and ton for barrel. There is a traditional market held every Wednesday morning with produce including freshly caught fish, and there are two supermarkets and a number of independent shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs to enjoy. Within reach is the popular Thetford Forest Park, a number of golf courses, other market towns and not forgetting the cathedral city of Norwich. A convenient base for your Norfolk adventure.

Please note: this property does not accept children, but will accept babes in arms.
Please note: this property can only accept bookings for a minimum of 3 nights.
Please note: Customers are not permitted to charge electric vehicles at the property without prior arrangement with the owner.
Please note: This property has a good house keeping bond of 150 GBP.
