The cottage is in a very peaceful situation where we could relax or find plenty of places to visit in the surrounding area. The owners are friendly and helpful though not intrusive. We had a wonderful week and hope to go again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay at Nursery Cottage. Jonathon & Angela were the perfect hosts. We loved the tranquil gardens, sitting out enjoying the glorious weather listening to the lovely singing of the birds in the trees. This really is a perfect location for exploring the broads and the lovely Norfolk coast.
