Enid December 2024

“Definitely could do with larger bath towels.”

Also vet in back bedroom was like sleeping on a boat. Every time my husband moved I rocked about which meant we slept separately during our stay. The sofa is also very low which gave us both difficulty getting g off it. All said the cottage is very well equipped and very warm. Negotiating the stairs was tricky but we coped. We couldnt park the car in the parking space so gad to use the grass verge outside next doors cottage. Not ideal.

Christopher December 2024

“My family (wife, 2 young children and dog) just back from a great stay at this lovely cottage.”

Clean, cozy and comfy! Well located for travel into Norwich and further afield into the countryside. Really appreciated tone and speed of responsiveness from the owner as well.

“Was comfortable, could perhaps do with new settee as existing one has maybe seen better days, other than that it a great stay.”

“We had a wonderful stay in the lovely cosy cottage.”

Very clean and well maintained everything we needed for our holiday. Just one little niggel couldn’t find instructions for microwave

Kathi June 2024

“This is a delightful old cottage.”

I stayed with my little dog on one of the hottest days of the year so far and it was so cool inside. So much was provided, even dog bowls and biscuits ! Wonderful communication with the owner, thank you. There is a lovely new café just a few doors away and lunch at the Red Lon was excellent.

- Kathi, June 2024
Kerrie May 2024

“We had such a wonderful time at Meg's Cottage.”

Plenty of time to rest, relax, recharge and reconnect with the family. A proper homely cottage filled with everything you might need. A whole library of books and games to enjoy. Lots of interesting quirks and features. We all loved it. Thanks.

- Kerrie, May 2024
Alwyn May 2024

“Very enjoyable stay.”

Thanks for the nice welcoming package of goodies. Communication was also good. Meg's cottage was a cosy place to stay & a good base to travel around the area for our 7 day stay.

Warm, cozy, extremely well equipped. Just a joy of a property to stay in.

Susan January 2024

“It’s a lovely homely cottage once you have conquered the quirky staircase and got used to the shower which eventually runs nice and hot.”

Generally well presented but could have done with a flick around the odd cobweb although we appreciate it is early season. Parking/exiting is not a problem if you get help from a lookout although drivers were very considerate in letting us out. Great location for food and drink and access to Norwich by car and bus.

- Susan, January 2024
Stuart January 2024

“The cottage was warming and inviting, well set out , pleasant to stay in, loved the tapestry, ideal holiday break.”

“Excellent location close to cycle/ walking track , plenty of places to eat and also close to supermarket.”

Very charming house and felt it like home from home there

Denzil September 2023

“A mid 1800’s cottage in a pleasant village a few miles outside of Norwich with two good pubs a stone’s throw away and garage with a Subway just across the road.”

Two large comfortable beds up a staircase which is typical in a cottage of this age and should be used with care. The lounge is comfortable and the internet works fine, kitchen is very well equipped. Outside was secure for our dog to investigate but some of the greenery needed trimming back. Plenty of walks, Tesco a few hundred yards up the road and fish and chips next door to a Chinese takeaway a ten minute drive. Any problem the owner just a phone call away only too happy to help.

- Denzil, September 2023
Andrew September 2023

“An excellent location.”

Pubs, Tesco and Garage just a few minutes walk away. 20 minutes bus ride into Norwich and well placed for visiting the Broads and north coast. It is homely and comfortable. If you have mobility issues then take the warnings seriously. The cottage is on two levels with a step between the kitchen and sitting room, and between the two bedrooms. Also the stairs are very steep and narrow and require great care. If you are of an age to need to get up in the night the journey to the downstairs bathroom is quite daunting!

- Andrew, September 2023
Rachel August 2023

“A very well equipped cottage in an ideal location for exploring Norwich and Norfolk, we will definitely be staying there again.”

- Rachel, August 2023
Ken June 2023

“Good cottage.”

Good base for exploring Norfolk.Plenty of walks for dogs.Good access by bus into Norwich.Car parking ok once you've gotten used to it.Would recommend cottage to anyone. Ken.

Violet June 2023

“Enjoyed our short stay at Megs Cottage.”

Lovely cosy and comfortable cottage. Well equipped cottage, beyond expectations of facilities and level of provisions provided in the cottage. Chose Megs Cottage as it was close to family we were visiting for a few days on our holiday tour and we were delighted with local amenities. Due to the descriptions provided by the owner we were aware of the steep stair and managed okay. Although we didn’t try to take our one large suitcase upstairs! The only disappointing factor was the parking space. Although described as parking for one car, the available space was compromised due to the now overgrown shrubbery which was not shown on website photos, as this still shows an old photo without any shrubbery, only a few plant pots on the left of parking space. The hedge, bushes and plants that surround the parking space really could do with being cut well back or removed altogether to provide a bigger space, as to ensure ease of exit from car the passenger had to get out before entering the space to allow the driver to gain plenty room at their door to exit safely without scratching door on hedge and give enough space to actually get passed car.

- Violet, June 2023
Tracey May 2023

“The picture shows a cottage sitting on a country path the reality is it's on a very busy road.”

The car wash in the petrol station opposite was very noisy. The back bedroom was lovely and the bed, pillows etc very comfortable but having to walk through the other bedroom to reach the bathroom downstairs kept waking my friend up. The garden was not a pleasant country garden it was very overgrown and we saw a mouse in the garden and along with the noise of the traffic and uncomfortable seats couldn't relax in it. Overall it looked very tired and needed to be painted inside and out. We left a day early due to lack of sleep. btw I also live in an 1890 cottage so please don't use that as an excuse for the lack of work that needs to be carried out. Very disappointed.

- Tracey, May 2023

We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. The vast majority of our guests enjoy staying with us and compliment us on the way we look after our property and garden. The description and information on the Sykes website does state that the bedrooms are connected and that the property is situated on a main road, however we are sorry to hear that this did effect your stay. We wish you well for your future holiday venues. Property Owner
Karen May 2023

“This cottage is a little gem.”

Very homely and cosy in an ideal location to explore Norfolk. Petrol station, Tesco and two pubs on the door step. Stairs are a little narrow and steep and not ideal for the elderly. We have booked again for next year.

- Karen, May 2023
John April 2023

“Well equipped, well placed for touring.”

Good selection of books, also material on local outings.

- John, April 2023
Michele March 2023

“Gorgeously comfy, warm and cosy.”

Although as listed, on a busy main road, it was no problem inside the cottage. We loved climbing the little stairs up to bed at night!

- Michele, March 2023
Gordon February 2023

“This is a genuinely old cottage and has been sensitively refurbished to provide all modern amenities whilst still retaining its strong cottage character.”

The owners have gone to great lengths to provide all that could possibly be required for an enjoyable and comfort stay, for people and (if applicable) a dog. Internally it is a delightful, cozy property. It is well placed for touring around Norfolk, and an interesting walking/cycle route along a former railway (The Marriott’s Way) is very close. However it does have some drawbacks beyond the owners’ control. It is situated on a very busy main road near a major junction and almost opposite a large petrol station. However it is double-glazed and pretty quiet inside. There is, as promised, space off road outside for one car, but if any visitors had a second car this would be very difficult to park nearby. Although there is a small enclosed garden to rear, there is no outlook other than the road. The tiny spiral stair could be very hazardous for the very old, young or anyone with limited mobility. The combination of very awkward stairs and downstairs bathroom, beyond the living room and kitchen, make access to the bathroom difficult in the night. Additionally one of the double bedrooms can only be reached through the other. For any visitors for whom these drawbacks do not matter, and there may well be many, the property can be warmly recommended.

- Gordon, February 2023
Sean December 2022

“Lovely cottage, full of character.”

Incredibly warm considering how cold it was outside. Plenty of towels, tea towels etc. Only drawback is the parking but considering the old world style of the cottage that's to be expected. Busy road but inside couldn't hear the traffic at all. Lovely place.

- Sean, December 2022
Penny October 2022

“A lovely little cottage!”

Very cozy.

- Penny, October 2022
Thomas September 2022

“Very clean and comfortable accommodation with everything we needed for our stay.”

Local amenities (butcher, baker, two pubs, bank, supermarket, post office, petrol station) were on our doorstep but cottage ideally located for so many day trips out - National Trust houses, Norwich City Centre, coast etc. Welcome bottle of local apple juice and chocolate biscuits a very nice touch. Would thoroughly recommend to anybody

- Thomas, September 2022
Karen September 2022

“Lovely cottage in an ideal location.”

Some rooms could to with a lick of paint but overall a cosy little cottage. The stairs are very narrow and would be difficult for some people, lots of detail in each room. Very close to petrol station, Subway, Tesco and two lovely pubs.

- Karen, September 2022
Lorraine August 2022

“This was our 2nd visit to Megs Cottage within 3 months & we loved it-again!”

The reason we book Megs cottage,apart from seeing friends & cycling around Norfolk,is it is a home from home.It's as if the owners have just left with all their books etc for us to enjoy.It is so very well equipped with everything we need.I also really like the fact that it is not like the usual places that have a very bland feel with everything being magnolia with an air b&b feel.

- Lorraine, August 2022
Caroline July 2022

“Very well equipped, spotlessly clean cottage.”

Property was exactly as described.

- Caroline, July 2022
Susan June 2022

“Excellent cottage in a very convenient location.”

Busy road but very quiet inside the cottage and delightful garden. Our Lancashire Heeler did manage to wriggle his way through the side of the wrought iron gate and was found and ended up in the local vets. Otherwise excellent holiday cottage and would use it again. Susan Hunt

- Susan, June 2022
Linda June 2022

“Meg's Cottage is an extremely charming cottage.”

We stayed for four nights and enjoyed it tremendously. It has quirky features and a steep staircase so you need to be mobile to stay there. It is very dog friendly which is very important to us. The garden, though tiny, is beautiful and relaxing and the positioning is great for Norwich and the coast. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, especially at the end when my daughter forgot something! We will definitely return to this cottage.

- Linda, June 2022
Paula June 2022

“Spent a lovely long weekend here.”

The cottage was very clean, full of character and a pleasure to stay in.The beds very comfortable. Steep stairs going to first floor not suitable for elderly sadly. The outside space is small but very pretty with table and chairs nestled amongst an array of flowers. Very well situated for Norwich and the Broads. Traffic noise from road a little unfortunate.

- Paula, June 2022
Lorraine May 2022

“We really liked staying at Megs Cottage & would definitely recommend it to friends although some might struggle with the stairs.”

The books & other artifacts made it an interesting place to stay-so much nicer than all those bland make-overs we've seen in other places.We hope to be back next year.

- Lorraine, May 2022
Michael April 2022

“A VERY NICE PLACE.”

Information must make clear difficult staircase and bathroom downstairs. Very well equipped. Unfortunately my wife and I would not use again due to the degree of difficulty encountered but this stay was managed and our weekend passed very well. The amenities available from this site are amazing. Thanks M.Lee

- Michael, April 2022
Andrew April 2022

“Lovely little end terrace house which has a good lived in atmosphere with many sweet ornaments plus books and games.”

Owner very nice also. Note very steep staircase making it unsuitable for some.

- Andrew, April 2022
John March 2022

“We had a great time, the cottage was lovely and met all our needs when we were there in March.”

It's a shame that the road is busy, we expect that might cause some discomfort in summer when you'd want the windows open - but that wasn't a problem for us, too cold outside! But the cottage was very warm and comfortable.

- John, March 2022
Debbie February 2022

“This is a really lovely quaint cottage.”

Comfortable, cosy, sympathetically furnished and extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need. It is very well located for touring the Broads, the Norfolk coast and Norwich with a regular bus directly into Norwich city centre just a very short walk down the road. The village has two pubs a pizza takeaway, a cafe and a Tesco supermarket. It should be noted that the staircase is extremely steep and the bathroom is located downstairs which I feel would make this property problematic for people with small children or anyone who has mobility issues. This was not a problem for us and we knew this detail before we booked.

- Debbie, February 2022
Emma February 2022

“Megs cottage is snug and cosy, well situated for lovely walking, but still in easy reach of town.”

We really enjoyed our stay!

- Emma, February 2022
Caroline December 2021

“Beautiful, cosy cottage that smelled so clean as soon as we walked in - particularly appreciated in these covid times!”

The local apple juice and cookies left to welcome us were delicious and all the information and personal touches around the place made us feel as if we were staying with friends.

- Caroline, December 2021
Lorraine September 2021

“Beautiful cottage in the centre of Drayton with all amenities on your doorstep.”

Great base for exploring Norfolk with access to all main routes. Cottage is beautifully maintained and equipped with everything you need for your stay. Stairs are very steep, which we knew when booking, so was not a problem for us. Lovely little cottage garden which we enjoyed sitting in whilst having our morning coffee. Would definitely rebook.

- Lorraine, September 2021
Ann September 2021

“Meg's cottage is clean, comfortable and home from home.”

Lots of local walks and further afield. Would definitely recommend.

- Ann, September 2021
Michael August 2021

“A lovely clean comfortable cottage well situated for trips to east coast, dog walks , pubs and cafes perfect!”

- Michael, August 2021
Derek July 2021

“This is a delightful 19th century cottage with a lovely small garden.”

There are outside tables and chairs to sit in sun or shade. The stairs are accurately described on the website, they are an adventurous scramble with a hand rail. There are steps and a low doorway into the back bedroom. A short bus ride or drive will take you into Norwich, we spent a day at Holt and one at Sheringham. There’s off road parking and plenty of local shops. For cyclists there’s Marriott Way. The owners have put lots of interesting things inside and a wealth of books. A good space to rest and relax or as a base to explore from. If you are infirm or unsteady on your feet, the stairs are not for you. We would be happy to stay again.

- Derek, July 2021
Susan July 2021

“The cottage is lovely!”

Very well equipped and cosy with a pretty little courtyard garden however it is on a busy main road so sitting in the garden is not a tranquil experience! The spiral staircase is also challenging at first but after a few days becomes easier! It is well situated for getting in to Norwich with a bus stop a few minutes walk away and it also has 2 pubs within a few minutes walk!

- Susan, July 2021
Sheila June 2021

Nigel May 2021

“Lovely cottage, extremely well appointed in a good walking area.”

The booking process was easy and trouble-free. We will very happily book more holidays through Sykes and extremely happily go to Megs Cottage again.

- Nigel, May 2021
Karen April 2021

“The cottage is a great base for Norwich and not too far from the Broads.”

However as was made clear in description the stairs would be an issue for lots of people and the adjoining bedrooms and bathroom downstairs and being on a main road. We knew when we booked though and owner very pleasant on phone and very clean and well equipped cottage. Didn’t realise though that sofa bed was more comfortable than rear bedroom and that mattress was like a brick so should be replaced. As said it is stated in description about stairs and bedrooms but owner has made the best of it and we would return.

- Karen, April 2021
Virginia April 2021

“What a super cottage; clean, welcoming, easy to access and everything was thought of!”

Would completely recommend Sykes Cottages and Meg's cottage.

- Virginia, April 2021
Alex W December 2020

Sandra October 2020

“Really enjoyed our short stay at Megs Cottage .”

Special consideration was given by the owners , in all aspects , with additional sanitisers and required products supplied in the current climate . A spotlessly clean home , very well equipped and kept to a high standard . Would recommend a stay in this lovely cottage . Thank You .

- Sandra, October 2020
Denyse October 2020

“Comfortable cottage, quiet inside despite being on the main road.”

Well situated for getting into Norwich and trips to the north coast and broads, very close to the Marriotts Way for daily dog walks.

- Denyse, October 2020
Grenville September 2020

“Enjoyed the cottage.”

I wear varifocal glasses and managed to stumble over the kitchen carpet at least once a day which could be a problem for a less mobile person. Not a problem to the others so I'm obviously a slow learner!!!!! The stairs are steep but not a problem for us. The automatic lights on the stairs are an ecellent idea. The two Pub/Restaurants nearby were good and excellent value.

- Grenville, September 2020
Denis September 2020

“This cottage was quite central to amenities.”

There were 2 pubs very close by and if you wanted to eat out, you could. Also their was a Tesco supermarket near by which was handy.

- Denis, September 2020
Nicolette August 2020

“Lovely cottage, the courtyard garden is very colourful, however very small (not much room to sit if you bring a dog), lots of little extra touches like board games and toys for kids, beds very comfy, rooms warm!”

- Nicolette, August 2020
David July 2020

“Meg's Cottage, dating back to 1860 is a gem.”

Beautifully presented with every facility. The owner's had left us lots of goodies, plus something for our Goldie! The house was comfy, cosy and a joy to stay at. Having read the website there were no surprises, only welcome ones, such as the attractive tiny garden. Shouldn't talk this property up too much - it might be fully booked when we try to go again!!

- David, July 2020
Theo March 2020

“This property was an excellent find.”

It’s location was excellent with links to Norwich by bus or walking. The cottage was lovely and everything was as seen in the pictures or described on the site. We usually like to try different cottages, but will definitely return to this one as it’s ideal for when we go to see bands in Norwich (plus we didn’t get the full experience of the surrounding village and walks, due to being there as lockdown was being put in place!) The owners were great and had a lovely conversation with them regarding our dog staying. Would highly recommend...

- Theo, March 2020
Robert February 2020

“Characterful cottage.”

Cottage was surprisingly spacious and very comfortable. Extremely well equipped. Minor niggles: we personally didn't like the extensive use of 'air fresheners' throughout the cottage and the stairs are very steep and narrow! Overall though we had a most enjoyable stay and would happily stay at cottage again.

- Robert, February 2020
Tracy December 2019

“Was over the moon with the cottage and also the personal touch left for both us and our dog.”

- Tracy, December 2019
Serieta October 2019

“Megs cottage was perfect for us (my husband,14 year old daughter and dog).”

I was worried about the stairs after reading other reviews but we did not have any problems with the stairs. The cottage had everything we needed and more. We were there the last week in October (half-term in Southampton but not in Norwich). Tesco is less than 5 minutes walk away. Pubs, dominos, petrol station with shop and subway even closer. The owners are lovely and were very very helpful. I really hope we get to stay again and would definitely recommend it. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your lovely cottage.

- Serieta, October 2019
Lynn October 2019

“The cottage was lovely although the stairs were a challenge and could have done with a hair dryer as the weather wasn't great and I didn't bring mine, but couldn't have wanted anything else, like a home from home we would definitely recommend to others.”

- Lynn, October 2019
June September 2019

“The cottage was warm and cosy.”

It had everything you could want,whatever the weather. Books of all kinds and a selection of games. Both bedrooms were spacious and very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. It had a good homely feel. Good location for buses into Norwich (a good bus service). Close to pubs and shops but the cottage still felt peaceful inside.

- June, September 2019
Ruth August 2019

“The comfort & cottage generally.”

There were so many nice touches, like towels, tea, coffee, biscuits, soap & cloths to save us the bother. It was actually beautifully furnished & decorated. The garden, though small was v pretty. Plus they had several bookcases with books to cover every interest. Good tv with Sky. All very effective for a short break like we had. It was near to all amenities- a garage cold room off- licence & a 24 hour Tesco. Plus ideal in quiet area near to all main routes. One thing, I did expect it to be in a small side road but it is on a main road, so you need help backing out, & have to be careful as there is a double junction. The car pull-in space just fitted our car which is a vauxhall Astra. However if you are careful it’s fine. We still loved staying there!

- Ruth, August 2019
June July 2019

“The cottage was very clean and well appointed and was the perfect base for exploring Norfolk.”

The village has various local shops as well as a filling station and supermarket. We had a very enjoyable week and would stay there again.

- June, July 2019
F June 2019

“Nothing more to add to our feedback except (don't ever update as it's character is lovely).”

Oh there was one thing about parking,when we parked our land cruiser it was very difficult to unload as couldn't open doors fully.Very tight fit.

- F, June 2019
Diane June 2019

“Lovely cottage with lots of character very clean and comfortable.”

Had everything you could possibly need. We were made to feel very welcome. We would definitely stay here again.

- Diane, June 2019
Richard May 2019

“Very comfortable, spotlessly clean cottage, handy for Norwich, and with two pubs and a supermarket within five minutes’ walk.”

Very tight steep spiral staircase and proximity to busy road mean it is not suitable for children. Parking is a bit of a challenge with a big car as the space is small. For us and any couple wanting comfort, convenience and value for money Meg’s Cottage is ideal.

- Richard, May 2019
Jane April 2019

“Great cottage and offered everything that you needed.”

Very comfortable and cosy and we loved it. However the staircase does need to be highlighted as extremely steep and could be a challenge for some.

- Jane, April 2019
Peter March 2019

“A great little property well positioned and surrounded by excellent facilities.”

- Peter, March 2019
Ann December 2018

“Meg's Cottage was a lovely place to spend a few days after Christmas while seeing our daughters and grandchildren near Norwich.”

The sitting room was cosy, warm and comfortable. We were impressed with the books and games provided. We hope to come again later in the year.
