Poplar Farm house is a superb holiday accommodation. Beautifully laid out and exceptionally well equipped, with an extremely large garden to relax in. Fantastic location for the coast and the Broads. Louise and Martin were also wonderful hosts. All in all, one of the best holiday homes we've ever stayed in

Had a fantastic week at Poplar Farm. The owners were very welcoming and the welcome pack was superb, including a delicious home made cake. The house is very well equipped, everything you could need, a real home from home. All the bedrooms were clean, comfortable and airy. Both sitting rooms have large comfortable sofas, games and a large toy box whRead moreich was a god send when it rained all day. The large garden is wonderful for dogs and children to safely play and explore the little wooded area. Lots of seating in the garden to relax and enjoy the peace and spot the wildlife. Ideal place for family holidays. We had such a fantastic week the kids didn't want to go home. We would definitely go back. Hide

Lovely location, and a great house for multi-generational holiday. The garden was also fabulous, we saw deer, rabbits, a hare and lots of birds. The owner was super helpful, and the welcome pack with homemade goodies was delicious!
