Snaptrip says
Cuckoo Lodge in Holkham is highly praised for its peaceful location, well-equipped facilities, and cosy atmosphere. Guests appreciate the enclosed garden, ideal for dogs, and the property's proximity to local attractions. The welcome hamper is a delightful touch, though its provision should not be expected. Some minor maintenance issues and cleanliness concerns were noted, but overall, the lodge offers a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the lodge to be clean and welcoming. However, a few reports of dust, spiders, and unclean areas slightly affected the overall impression. The majority of feedback suggests a high standard of cleanliness, with only occasional lapses.
The lodge's location is consistently lauded for its tranquillity and proximity to nature reserves, beaches, and local sights. It is described as remote and peaceful, perfect for relaxing and exploring North Norfolk.
Guests frequently mention the comfort of the lodge, particularly the beds and the cosy feel of the property. Some minor comments about sofa comfort and heating issues during one stay were noted, but overall, the lodge is seen as a comfortable retreat.
The lodge is generally well-equipped, with a few requests for additional kitchen items and a shower attachment. Maintenance issues like the back door handle and heating were promptly addressed, indicating good responsiveness to guests' needs.
While guests express gratitude for the welcome hamper and car parking pass, these amenities are not consistently mentioned across reviews, and it is important to note that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed for every stay.

Well located for seeing the coastal nature reserves and beaches and also inland sights such as Binham Priory and Little Walsingham. Thornham, Hunstanton Cliffs and the Burnhams are also worth visiting. etc. Very well appointed and beautifully renovated; the air-source heat pump works very well (we found it almost too warm at night!).
