This is a superbly converted, former agricultural building on a working farm. Furnished to a high standard, it is cosy and comfortable. The owners take great pride in its presentation and surroundings. We have visited previously and, once again, had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday. Thank you.

Stunning little end-of-terrace cottage out in the countryside, set on a working farm. The cottage offers all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. Plenty of parking for larger vehicles, lovely walks noted from the farm, and an offer for farm tours! Local shops, a supermarket within 10/15 minutes drive. The cottage is perfectly situated on Read morethe outer edge of Snetterton Race Circuit, making it great for those wanting to visit. With that, there is noise from the track during the hours of 09:00-17:00. For us, it was background noise that tuned out over the TV when we were at the cottage; we were mostly out exploring during those hours though. We have already recommended the property to friends who visit the race track regularly and look forward to coming back in due course. Hide

A beautifully constructed and appointed cottage, situated on a working farm. The cottage is well laid out, very spacious and had everything you need for self catering if rather not eat out. Very peaceful and relaxing. You cannot get much better for racing at Snetterton which was part of our reason for choosing this property. Would definitely rRead moreecommend. Hide
