Guests say
Keeper's Cottage in Norfolk is consistently praised for its idyllic location, cleanliness, and comfort. Guests describe a peaceful retreat amidst nature, with a beautiful lake and woodland. The property is well-equipped, and the owners are commended for their friendliness and helpfulness. The presence of a swimming pool and the quality of furnishings are frequently mentioned as highlights.
Reviewers are unanimous in their praise for the cleanliness of Keeper's Cottage, often describing it as immaculate and spotless, indicating meticulous maintenance.
The location is highly regarded for its tranquillity and natural beauty, with frequent mentions of wildlife and a private lake, contributing to a serene holiday experience.
Comfort is a strong point, with guests highlighting luxurious furnishings, exceptionally comfy beds, and a relaxing atmosphere, although one mention of inadequate heating prevents a perfect score.
Facilities are generally celebrated, especially the swimming pool and well-equipped kitchen. However, a single complaint about heating and the cost of additional logs suggests room for improvement.
While the reviews reflect positively on the owners' helpfulness and the overall experience, there is no specific mention of gifts or special touches that would fall under 'thoughtfulness'. Therefore, this score is set to null.
