An ideal 'hideaway' for two people plus dogs. Handy for the coast, The Broads and many other places. Nicola has thought of everything that might be needed. Even mats for the dogs who loved lying on them on the underfloor heating. Also lovely welcome pack - which was most appreciated.

Peaceful and quiet location and, single lane roads aside, the cottage is well sited for visiting the Broads, beaches and interesting towns and villages. The enclosed garden is perfect for the dogs they are safe and secure. Highly recommend the White Lion at Wheatacre - large appetites required for superb food!

Great dog friendly place to stay, with friendly and helpful owners. We booked very last minute one evening, and despite not arriving until gone 10pm, Nicola was there to greet us, + even had dog treats and a bottle of prosecco waiting for us despite no notice. We travelled with our 2(very) big dogs, and have to be careful with where we take them (NRead moreeeds to have a decent size enclosed fence, no breakable items around the place which could be swiped off by tails etc) and this was perfect for them.
