Keepers Cottage, Dereham

Keepers cottage is a little hidden gem. Located on a farm its beauty and peaceful setting makes for the perfect get away. Our dogs loved the beautiful large garden it’s the happiest Iv ever seen them. It was completely secure so we didn’t have to worry about them getting out. We played ball games every day on the lawn with the kids. We loved using the hot tub every day and the fire came in useful on a few really chilly rainy evenings. I’m from a busy urban area and the cottage is so peaceful I could sleep with my windows wide open and enjoy the silent breeze without being woken up by cars. The kitchen is a great family room and we cooked lots of lovely meals on the big cooker. The washing machine and dryer helped me keep up with the kids washing. We walked the dogs every day around Beeston village and every walk was a joy. The local pub is definitely worth a visit too. Delicious food and dog friendly. I’m a runner and ran to litcham which is 2.7 miles away. Gorgeous. We enjoyed few days out to holkham sherringham but also had just as much fun stopping at the cottage for some r&r. I could have easily stopped in every day. I was very sad to leave this morning and I couldn’t recommend it enough. Thank you to the owners it really was perfect

Cottage was as shown in pictures and was wonderful and quiet. It is situated at the end of a single track lane surrounded by farmland so you do get the normal farm noises (harvesting whilst we were there) but at night the sky becomes a canvas of stars and there was nothing better than lazing back in the hot tub watching out for shooting stars. There is no BBQ but a stand is provided for you to bring your own or buy disposable ones. Head room in the two upstairs rooms is limited but you only sleep there don't you!! This is a wonderful place to unwind, very peaceful and the children can shriek and laugh without hte worry or distrubing neighbours. Would I go back? yes in a jiffy :-) fantastic week
