    “Question: Can two septuagenarians be thrilled and delighted at the thought of staying and sleeping on a bus?”

    Answer: Indubitably. We stayed in "Walter" for 7 days and it was an absolute delight. Walter works his magic on you from the moment you see him. Set in his own space at The Midden, he provides a lovely haven for "getting away from it all". An excellent place for exploring North Norfolk, without travelling too far from him. We visited different places every day and non were more than a 40min drive. An added bonus was that The Midden has it's own railway station (rather a Halt), so a trip, ...

    Answer: Indubitably. We stayed in "Walter" for 7 days and it was an absolute delight. Walter works his magic on you from the moment you see him. Set in his own space at The Midden, he provides a lovely haven for "getting away from it all". An excellent place for exploring North Norfolk, without travelling too far from him. We visited different places every day and non were more than a 40min drive. An added bonus was that The Midden has it's own railway station (rather a Halt), so a trip, to Walsingham and back, on the Wells and Walsingham Light railway was so easy. But don't forget to tell the guard to stop at The Midden. So, would we recommend Walter? Yes. Go for it. You will not be disappointed.

    Dear Ben, thank you so much for the lovely review. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. Furthermore thank you for the lovely carved characters. I gather you whittled them from Midden wood. Wishing you safe travels. Nicola and Team Walter Property Owner
