“We both really enjoyed our holiday it was autumn so as we are getting older we were so happy that the heating was really good.”

The owners were on hand if there were any problems but there were none we have been before on 2 occasions so we knew it was nice hope to return again next year in spring or summer all being well.

“A lovely little cottage, very well equipped.”

Friendly and helpful owner. Delightful setting, very peaceful but within walking distance of shops, takeaways and pubs. Would recommend for a couple seeking a quiet break.

- David, August 2024
Neville August 2024

“Moonlight Cottage is a lovely property for exploring Norfolk and the Broads.”

The owners are great, making sure we settled in OK. The location is good - we particularly enjoyed the ready access to the Bure Valley Trial for traffic free cycling.

- Neville, August 2024
Victoria August 2024

“Lovely cottage in a very peaceful location whilst being close to beaches and lots to do nearby.”

The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The garden has lots of room to play and the tyre swing was a hit with our daughter. Owner was very helpful with local suggestions. As with much of Norfolk mobile signal is patchy and the WiFi is slow/intermittent for anything other than basic browsing so would suggest downloading anything you want prior to arrival or taking some games/DVD’s in case of a rainy day.

“Nice cosy little cottage everything we needed the owner was very friendly and ...”

Nice cosy little cottage everything we needed the owner was very friendly and helpful - the internet was down for a few day but not the fault of the owner - the location was good for visiting the local area we even managed to hire a boat for the day for a trip on the broards - nice pub a mile up the road with good food and large portions ( the rissing sun )

Geoffrey May 2024

“Very comfortable cottage, very private, facing, wih one other cottage, a small grass field, set back from the minor road, about a mile from the small village of Coltishall, and a further 4 miles from Hoveton with Roys ample food hall, pharmacy, department store, toy store, garden centre, and free short, medium and long stay car parks.”

Coltishall has a pleasant green space by the river. Owner welcomed us helpfully, and then left us private unless we would have wanted help.

- Geoffrey, May 2024

Patricia March 2024

“Excellent cottage which had everything we needed for a very enjoyable holiday.”

Spotlessly clean and a comfortable bed. Ideally located just outside a small village. Easy access to lots of lovely places in Norfolk. Holkham hall and parkland was beautiful. We loved the town of Holt and seal spotting at Horsey beach. The host was on hand to sort any problems such as when the internet connection was lost he came immediately and sorted it out. Would definitely visit Norfolk again and stay at Moonlight cottage. Highly recommended.

- Patricia, March 2024

Ron September 2023

“A stunning holiday cottage in a beautiful woodland location.”

Much larger than expected with generous kitchen, bathroom, utility room, lounge and bedroom. Very well equiped. Maintained to a very high standard and very clean. Could not have wished for more. Would definitely stay there again

Jacqui August 2023

“Welcomed by host.”

Tea, milk and biscuits available on arrival. Moonlight cottage is in a lovely setting and very well equipped. Clean and comfortable and close to areas of interest and local facilities. Would recommend.

Richard October 2022

“Moonlight Cottage was ideal for a peaceful weekend break.”

We found it in a quiet rural setting, comfortable, well equipped, spotlessly clean and with a range of books and DVDs for a rainy day. We hope to return for a longer stay.

- Richard, October 2022
Elizabeth June 2022

“The cottage was clean and had everything we needed.”

The only downside was the fan in the bathroom - it sounded like a First World War aeroplane taking off!

- Elizabeth, June 2022

Hi Liz, thank you for your feedback and bringing this to our attention. As a result the fan has now been replaced. Regards Dave and Chris Property Owner
Margaret May 2022

“Really tucked away from roads, so its peaceful and very quiet.”

Just birds. Cottage very spacious, all facilities including a washing machine and dishwasher. Seating outside in garden. Would say its a superb getaway if you want a peaceful break. Thankyou Dave and Chris.

“Very friendly host and lovely area to stay in Norfolk.”

Loved the fresh flowers in the kitchen! Nice touch.

Carol June 2021

“This cottage was in a beautiful, idyllic and tranquil setting, away from the world.”

Birdsong and the occasional rumble of trains on the Bure Valley railway- a 5 minute walk away up a narrow lane -was all we heard. We spent our holiday cycling down traffic free country lanes and walking along the path beside the train. Moonlight cottage is centrally situated for exploring Norfolk although it was too hot for us to do that. We walked to the river Bure and enjoyed pub lunches nearby. Would highly recommend hiring a day boat to see the nearby Broads. The cottage itself was well equipped for a self catering holiday, and spotlessly clean. We wouldn’t hesitate to return.

- Carol, June 2021
Glenis May 2021

“Lovely little property in a tiny,rural hamlet.”

The owner, Dave, lives very near the cottage and is delightful and very helpful. A pleasant stay.

- Glenis, May 2021
Mark May 2021

“Great location to explore the broads area.”

- Mark, May 2021
Wendy May 2021

“The heating system in the cottage was difficult - on the controller, there was a switch that had been labelled on/off.”

It never seemed to do anything, so we just had to rely on the pre-set programme. Fortunately, most of the time there was no problem as the weather wasn't too bad, but if we'd been there at a colder time, it could have been difficult. Having said that, the owner was easily contactable and I'm sure would have helped us out if necessary. The setting was beautiful with local walking and convenient for the Norfolk Broads.

- Wendy, May 2021
David July 2020

“Excellent cottage, very clean with all you need for a good break - good location - would be happy to return in the future.”

- David, July 2020
Elizabeth October 2019

“Lovely clean cottage, very well equipped.”

Extremely quiet location. The owner was on hand for queries and quick to respond. I would certainly book again.

- Elizabeth, October 2019
Anne September 2019

“It was a wonderful base for exploring the Broads and the whole of Norfolk.”

Very convenient local village with shops, pubs, garage etc. Very lovely welcome cake, milk and flowers from the owners, nice touch.

- Anne, September 2019
Joseph August 2019

“Lovely location for exploring norfolk.”

Owners and personal touches are fab. Fantastic stay. Only criticism would be double sofa pull out bed was very uncomfortable and small but fine for our 4yr old. Picture perfect little place.

- Joseph, August 2019
James May 2019

“We enjoyed our stay at the lovely Moonlight Cottage which is ideal for 2 persons although there is a bed settee in the lounge for occasional use.”

The location is really peaceful for relaxing there and there are many places to visit in the area .The only drawback for us was the Friday booking when we found the traffic on the A1 horrendous in both directions and took much longer than expected..

- James, May 2019
Nisha April 2019

“A fantastic holiday cottage perfect for our family of 4.”

A fantastic location with lots to do. The host was friendly and helpful.

Malcolm August 2018

“Moonlight Cottage was one of the better cottages we have stayed in, it is very quiet and was well equipped.”

The owner Dave was very helpful and on hand if needed and the first to contact us regarding keys rather than the other way round. When we visit again we will be back. The cottage was very clean which is something that is really important to me. It was one of the few places we have been that was better than the brochure.

- Malcolm, August 2018
Joanne July 2018

“Very clean & tidy, beautiful quiet area with easy access to all areas.”

Really enjoyed our time there, would definitely go back.

- Joanne, July 2018
Michelle May 2018

“Moonlight Cottage was very clean and the facilities were really good.”

The little extras were nice as we arrived late so no shops open. The furniture in the living room is dated but usable. There is parking which is tight but manageable. We didn't go to any local pubs or shops so we can't comment on them but we did go to Wroxham Barns, Bure Valley Railway and Great Yarmouth which we thoroughly enjoyed with our 6 year old. Overall we really enjoyed our stay, thank you

- Michelle, May 2018
Laura March 2018

“The cottage is nice, well set out and has everything needed.”

Within easy reach of attractions in Norfolk. Owners were helpful and on hand if there was an issue. Parking shared with another cottage and very tight.

- Laura, March 2018
Avril November 2017

Our only complaint would be that the furniture was very dated.

- Avril, November 2017

“A very pleasant single story property where the facilities were more than adequate for our needs.”

We were very comfortable. We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and made good use of the deli, pubs and eateries within a mile or two. There was plenty to see, either the beaches on the north coast, or to Norwich. There were many beautiful villages around too.

- Jane, July 2016
Susan June 2016

“Beautifully equipped - secluded location but still within easy reach of village either on foot or by car.”

- James, May 2014
Anna April 2014

“The owner of the property was absolutely delightful and very helpful and friendly.”

We also felt the cottage was a home from home and had everything we needed and could want. I have been to rented cottages before where there have been things broken, missing and if you are cooking instead of going out, the kitchen was unsuitable for cooking anything further than beans on toast! Not so with this property, they'd thought of everything and the homely, welcoming touches like milk and tea / coffee were very gratefully received after a long M25 on a Friday night journey! We were very sorry to leave.

- Anna, April 2014

About the location

COLTISHALL

Wroxham 4 miles; Norwich 9 miles.

The pretty Norfolk Broadland village of Coltishall is known locally as the ‘Gateway to the Broads’, where, on Coltishall Common, you can find an array of moored boats sitting along the banks of the River Bure. The banks of the River Bure are the picturesque setting of Coltishall Staithe, a large grassed area enjoying riverside pubs and restaurants, a village store/Post Office and attractive cottages. In summer, both locals and visitors enjoy relaxing picnics, feeding the ducks and playing ball games, while in winter, the local waterfowl enjoy Coltishall Staithe’s riverside tranquillity. On the outskirts of Coltishall is the summertime pick-up stop of the Bure Valley Railway, a narrow gauge steam and diesel service running between the market town of Aylsham and Wroxham, and walkers can enjoy the riverside footpath from Coltishall Lock. The local area offers a wide choice of places to visit from craft barns and beautiful gardens to National Trust properties and Redwings Horse Sanctuary, while river boat trips can also be enjoyed. With Norfolk’s beautiful and varied coastline within easy reach, this is a lovely location for discovering Norfolk.
