The cottage was clean on arrival, well equiped for our stay and very useful for the two of us with two young dogs. Discrete and extremely quiet, surprisingly, in respect to its location so close to the centre of town. North Walsham offers a vast range of opportunities to explore from those on the NE coast, historic houses as Felbrigg, Blickling and Gunton within a most approachable distance of about ten miles. The cottage is within a wealth of footpaths and other places to walk dogs in safety and enjoyment. Experience on arrival with a basket of apple juice, cake and dog treats and milk in the fridge, we felt genuinely that we were being welcomed. The location of the cottage within the grounds of Marshgate House was surprisingly good as there was plenty of privacy and lack of overlooking. The people staying in the Diary had three greyhounds with them which caused no problem with our dogs during the entire week. The gardens are well planned, easy to use and lovingly kept. We were fortunate in having extraordinary mild weather apart from the dramatic Storm Boris, and Simon brought us out a table and chairs into the garden which we enjoyed using most of the week. The paintings on the wals were numerous and individual; to the owners which helped to uplift the quality of the experience of the spaces. The decoration, furniture and fitting out of the cottage was considered in a practical and cultured manner which gave a very positive feel for the use and enjoyment of the spaces. We would gladly recommend this holiday let to any of our friends and will look forward to our next visit.
