For location and size of space, price was good. Blakeney is a great base. However the property and outside space is very tired and in need of attention. It's overgrown with many weeds and the outdoor table and patio need a good clean. Inside some of the curtains and fittings are very dated. The toilet seat in the main bathroom is grim and really needs replaced - coating is bubbling and not very hygienic. Carpets in downstairs area have several stains.Good supply of plates etc but kitchen could do with clear out, drawers and cupboards struggling with amount of items. Some more clothes pegs would be a bonus alongside a new or fixed whirligig. We enjoyed our stay (4 of us) good size of rooms and living space, enjoyed peace and quiet and decent cups and plates.

Kelling, Blakeney Stay July 22

An excellent property offering high quality specification and value for money with a perfect large safe enclosed rear garden and private parking just a couple of mintues walk from the quay. The early evening sunsets from the upstairs balconey across the marshes to Morston are amazing.

We were a large family group and all the extra towels and bedding were provided. We come every year and had a wonderful time as usual.

The Kelling, autumn break.

Warm, comfortable and spacious. Well equipt kitchen and lovely log burner. Bathrooms are quite tired. The showers in particular need some maintenance and a deep clean, to remove black mould. All in all a great property, would definitely stay again.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. All comments are most welcome. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay and we hope you stay again soon. We do have a local property manager who oversees the maintenance during the season and we close down twice a year for more specific maintenance. I do hope the issues you mentioned did not spoil your stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 Mar, 2020
Christine and her group were great guests. They followed house rules, communicated really well and looked after the property, handing it back in a lovely clean and tidy condition. We are already trying to arrange dates for next year.

Well equipped house in a beautiful setting.

We really enjoyed our week at this house. The house is large and interesting and very well equipped with everything you could need. The television had Netflix which enabled us to sign in to our account which pleased the children! The only disappointment was there was no games room. The description said games room and the photo's showed a pool table which the children were looking forward to playing on. However when we arrived there was no sign of it which was disappointing. Other than that we had a lovely week and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
