Lovely cottage, light and airy. Great spot to sit outside - we had fab weather. Very comfortable furnishings and great to have both bedrooms with an ensuite. The stairs are quite steep so something to consider if you're not that agile. The sliding door at the bottom of the stairs was so helpful to keep our dog downstairs as he'd had surgery andRead more needed to avoid stairs and also wasn't allowed upstairs.. We found the parking ok and only once had to park away from the house. We had a great stay and did lots of birdwatching and walking. Hide

This was the perfect cottage for our needs. Having two en-suite bedrooms was great. It was comfortable and cosy as well as being tastefully decorated. We enjoyed some lovely walks without having to drive at to the starting point. A small grocery store, excellent cafe and pub are all a stones throw from the front door.

We loved The Anchorage. Was in a great location central to the village . The furnishings were beautiful, and the high quality bedding etc was a real bonus. As good as a top quality hotel . Loved the open fire. The whole place was cosy, and a treat on a February short break. Thank you

We really enjoyed our stay at The Archorage in Snettisham. The cottage was beautifully presented and well equipped. I would recommend the cottage to anyone staying in the area. Our advice would be to book early for meals at the Rose and Crown pub and also to get in early for the (superb) breakfasts at the Old Store. Both are recommended and areRead more very close to the cottage, but tend to get very booked up. Hide
