Reviews

Me and my partner decided to have a getaway in Norfolk. After spending a lot of time researching different places, we decided to go with Flint Cottage and let me say we weren't disappointed. Firstly, given the COVID-19 situation, extra care and consideration had been given to the cleanliness of the property before our arrival. Clear instructions had been printed for any queries we may have had. The owners also took the time to laminate the instructions as well as helpful bits of information like takeaway leaflets and local attractions. The cottage itself is cosy and very suitable for a couple who are looking to get away for a few days. It has all of the amenities needed for a short break including a dishwasher (to my delight). There were also supplies added like dishwasher tablets, soaps, washing liquid and kitchen surface cleaner so I didn't need to buy anything (aside from the beer ). All in all it was a fantastic stay and great experience and we will definitely be returning at some point next year.

The situation of the cottage was excellent for touring around Norfolk. The owner visited us on day 2 in order to ensure everything was ok. It certainly was, but her visit was very much appreciated.

A lovely, cosy, well equipped cottage. All décor and furnishings were to a high standard, we were very comfortable. The cottage is conveniently located for the town but still had a rural character.

A comfortable Cottage in a lovely area with lots to do and see.

Rated by Mrs Cockerell reviewed on 5th July 2015

An immaculate cottage. All amenities and information was extremely good. A cosy cottage and a very restful stay. The location was ideal as it was central to all the places we visited, for example; Sandringham, Norwich and Ely.

My partner and I had booked this cottage for a 3 night stay. Such a gorgeous cottage and it has everything you need. Unfortunately as our dogs didn't settle we had to leave the same day we arrived which is a shame. Its a lovely cosy cottage and we felt very welcome

A beautiful little cottage, perfect for couples. It was well presented, clean and tidy throughout and had a very well equipped kitchen with everything you could need. Provided a very detailed, well put together information guide and plenty of leaflets to get out and explore local attractions!

This is a very comfortable and well equipped cottege and in a very good location. There are two large supermarkets just up the road and Swaffham is quite central for exploring the North Norfolk coastal region and Thetford forest. Our only issue was that we had not appreciated that this cottage is linked to the cottage next door (which is also to rent), by a door in the bedroom. Whilst we were not concerned about the security, noise from the bedroom of the next door cottage did bother us. We could hear our neighbour having conversations with others and on his phone as well as his alarm going off in the morning. We felt very conscious about the impact on our privacy as a result. We talked to the owner about this and she said they would look into trying to improve sound proofing. How much this would bother you is for you to decide. However, the cottage otherwise is really cosy.

For me and my partner who are away from each other a lot of the year this was the perfect little cottage for us. It felt homely and warm. We didn't want to go far but just far enough to spend quality time together. Our dog settled in very well and I think she was sad to return home after all our fabulous walks which we had recommended to us. Also there were plenty of guide brochures at hand for us to see what was local to us to do at this time of year. We will definitely book again in the near future. The cottage was kept very neat and cleaned to a very high standard.
