A really lovely property, well looked after and very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and the garden is absolutely lovely. It could do with a few cleaning products for those using the cottage and there was no dishwasher salt or rinse aid which the dishwasher is in need of. I don't think anyone would buy that on their holiday. Otherwise, a lovely place and Salthouse is splendid.

The cottage was wonderful and in the most brilliant location . Everything was of a great standard with the most comfortable beds, amazing bathroom and wonderful views from the cottage. The garden was perfect for children. A few little things let it down . The dishwasher didn’t work, there wasn’t a stair gate and the high chair was not safe for small children as no harness

Barn Cottage is a beautiful cottage in an ideal location for walking and access to local beaches (with a short drive to the more popular ones). It is clean, comfortable and spacious for six adults, with a relaxing, cosy layout, albeit with some low ceilings in places for taller members of our group. The Aga was a challenge as a novice, despite instructions in the manual, however this was negated by the combination microwave oven providing the quick cooking temperatures we are used to; a simple step by step guide to use both ovens would be useful to speed up the familiarity of each appliance There is no service for mobile phones, (digital detox!) however WhatsApp worked well and the Wi-Fi provided good service. Returning home feeling chilled, we are considering another weekend at Barn Cottage later in the year!!

Difficult to find driveway when arriving in the dark - no lights General grubbiness, had to clean surfaces ourselves and wash pots, cutlery and pans before use.Rusty implements Old rancid looking diffusers spread around the house. Cobwebs in multiple places. Fire place unmade. Black Damp patches in what was advertised as a conservatory but in reality was a glorified boot room, with a tumble dryer in the corner. We wouldn’t even leave coats in there. Outside ‘Artic Hut’ had not been cleaned, ashes from previous fires remained, grills unwashed, wax from candles on every surface. No bath mats for either tiled floor in bathroom/shower room All in all the most disappointing cottage ever stayed in. Norfolk Hideaways did send a handyman to sort out a heating problem and dishwasher salt and rinse aid to add to the neglected dishwasher. They also offered to send cleaners in whilst we were there, which was not practical, especially in COVID related times to have them in whilst we were present with two young children. Besides, to rectify all the above would have taken hours, as obviously cleanliness is not part of their routine! I can honestly say the property was left much cleaner when we left than when we arrived as we ourselves cleaned up and disappointingly had to avoid using the Artic Hut and conservatory. Final comment would be that not is at it seems in the description, looks good but practically falls short and overall we would not advise using Norfolk Hideaways nor Poppyland Cleaning Company.
