A Warm Winter Break

Along with the New Year we celebrated a 70th birthday at the Potting Shed. The Potting Shed is in an ideal location with easy access to beaches, walking and a good local pub with excellent food. It has spacious well appointed accommodation giving individual space to a large group of people, with ages from 5yrs to 70yrs. The garden room/games room being an added bonus for both children and adults. We stayed in January but found it a warm and cosy retreat after refreshing walks on the beaches and in the local countryside. Would visit again.

Great house for family get together

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. It was perfect for our three generation family get together. Wonderful accommodation. Very spacious. All very spanking new! Lovely decor. Great having the games room in the garden with so much equipment. Lovely additional room overlooking the fields. Absolutely nothing to find fault with. I have rented some 20 holiday properties and this is definitely at the top. Wine and chocolates to greet us. We were blessed with lovely weather. Lovely area, lots to do and visit all easily reached.

Great stay

We had an amazing weekend get-away at the Potting Shed. The accommodation was very comfortable, and spacious for us all. The garden was also very well maintained, and allowed us to enjoy some time in the sun. There was a lovely touch with a bottle of wine and box of chocolates on arrival. Overall, great stay and time away in Norfolk.

Bright, comfortable, a bit too personal maybe..

A very light,bright and welcoming house with plenty of space and bathrooms for five adults. There is much care and thoughtful attention to detail for guests’ comfort - beautiful bed linen, generous piles of towels, toiletries etc. However it has to be said that we did feel a bit like Goldilocks when we arrived in the dark - a car in the front driveway (which we had been told about in advance), anoraks on the coat hooks inside the front door and a fridge containing an eclectic selection including an empty butter wrapper (some milk would have been good). The table place names and cards covering the dresser also kept reminding us we were in someone else’s house! The open plan kitchen dining area worked well for our Christmas gathering, although it was a pity one of the two ovens tripped the switch and couldn’t be used. We also found the dining table on the small side and think it would be a bit of a squash for seating 10-11 as advertised.
