We have been coming her for about 10 years. We first came here because we had a older dog that didn’t like stairs so Mill Lodge was perfect. It has everything that we need for our weeks holiday and the secure garden is fantastic for our dogs and the hot tub is great after a day out. Gemma is worm and welcoming when you arrive and if you need anything she is there to help. You are only 25 mins away from Wells next the sea that has a great beach for dogs as are all the beaches around here. There is a pub across the green that is worm and welcoming, the food there is very good. We love it here and have booked for next year already April and September, we would recommend Mill Lodge then anyone.

This is a fantastic cottage in a beautiful, quiet village.. The enclosed garden is perfect for dogs and there are lots of great walks from your doorstep. The hot tub is a great feature and the nearby pub (2 minutes walk) is one of the best I've ever been to! Further afield, the North Norfolk coastline is only 30 minutes drive. All in all a fantastic holiday - thank you!

Milk lodge was everything we expected and so much more.. Beautiful cottage in a perfect location. It was very clean and had everything we needed I would recommend this property to everyone - perfect for Families and for dogs too.

Mill Lodge was perfect for our needs.. The listing was accurate and above expectations. We had a brilliant stay and the hot tub was a bonus after busy days out visiting local National Trust propertiesn Holt to Sheringham NNR Railway and Hunstanton. Highly recommend.

Mill Lodge is a very comfortable, spacious and well equipment property.. We stayed with 2 friends and there dogs, the enclosed garden was very nice and we could sit out with no worries The owner met us on arrival, very friendly and helpful with local advice and explained everything clearly Would definitely recommend and plan to visit again

Mr Coleman, September 2019

A lovely break in a well appointed and versatile property.. Kitchen of property extremely well equipped. Friendly & welcoming owners close to hand if needed but not obtrusive, left us to our own devices but made it clear they were readily available if help needed with anything. This property was particularly good for our 3 dogs who were also welcomed. Hot tub was a very welcome bonus. Location of property was close enough to beaches & local towns for us to help make a great break. We would recommend this property to all. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Mill lodge is a great base to explore the North of Norfolk.. It’s secluded garden is great for dogs and kids to play. My only advice would be they could do with a couple of fans as there are only doors in the bedrooms and no windows and unless you are prepared to leave the doors open all night there is no air circulating and also my parents who are a little unsteady on their feet had to use the middle room as we had the cot in the big room and there are no grab rails in the bathroom to help. Apart from this we had a fantastic time and the hot tub is a great way to chill on an evening

Mrs Selby, August 2019

Very quiet and secluded despite being part of a complex.. Lovely garden and hot tub and convenient for the coast. Very dog friendly.

Mrs Riche

The lodge is perfectly situated for exploring Norfolk The owners have thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable.. It is also ideal for dogs with a large enclosed garden..

Really nice place, helpful people.. If people are staying 5 nights would be nice for them to have enough things e.g toilet roll and teabags

Mr Taylor

October 2018

Advertised as pet friendly but on arrival after reading the card found out dogs NOT allowed in the bedrooms.. This created a problem as our dogs always sleep in our room and I take my own bedding to make sure they do not cause a mess if they jump on the bed. The Lodge itself was a good wheelchair friendly layout however the underfloor heating does not provide much warmth on the colder days as it is on a timed thermostat that cannot be accessed. The toilets in the double bedrooms had an airlock so made an awful lot of noise when flushed and the end bathroom had a strong gas like odour presumably from the boiler. The Hot tub is under a tree so we did not use it as anticipated the leaves falling in the water and any rain on the leaves dripping on to us. We have a hot tub at home so luckily this did not affect our stay. We met the owner on arrival but then only saw her briefly when she arrived home in her car...she did not give a friendly wave or stop to enquire if everything was ok. I feel strongly that any rules such as the no dogs in bedroom rule should be mentioned on booking as this would have definitely made look elsewhere. As it was I had a stressful week trying to keep the dogs out and listening to them cry and have unsettled night...I ended up sleeping on the sofa to be with them. The negatives are a great shame as on arrival the property had a wow factor and the garden is a good size to relax in on a warm day.

Mr Firth

July 2018

The owner didn’t seem interested in us.. A toilet seat broke on second day and was not repaired all week.. We asked about the hot tub temperature but never got a response. She was not available when we left. Very disappointed with her attitude. The property whilst good for people with disabilities needed some attention. Mattresses and pillows uncomfortable, toaster needs updating, placemats tatty, The hot tub did not function properly and was not very clean. Oven grill did not work neither did the extractor fan. A bit disappointed overall Neil and Carol Firth

April 2018

We have stayed at Mill Lodge Twice before.. It is in a fairly central position for exploring Norfolk. The Lodge is very comfortable. Both my sisters and I have Arthritis we are in our sixties, and everything was accessible as it is all on one level. The garden is large backing onto woodland and secluded with a Hot Tub to soothe your aches and pains, and safe for our two dogs to play about. Mrs Bidewell the owner is very friendly and available to help if anything is not as it should be.

Mrs Boor

March 2018

Very well laid out cottage.. Access to the garden and the hot tub through the en-suite rooms was a good design feature. Good that it was tiled throughout as we had dogs and it was a particularly wet week. The washing machine and tumble drier were useful as we had one small bath towel and hand towel each for the 5 days and as we were showering daily and using the hot tub they got pretty wet quite quickly. I would recommend that customers might like to bring an extra towel for the hot tub. Good sized fridge freezer, and a very easy to operate cooker were great - and good to have a dishwasher. The cottage is well designed for wheel chair users I would imagine, although we can't vouch for that personally. The location was very quiet and rural but is not too far from the wonderful city of Norwich. It is also in reasonable proximity to the North Norfolk coast. You would need a car (or to be fit cyclists) if you want to do anything more than just relax, chill out and go for country walks. You will need to bring your own toiletries/soap/dishcloth and hairdryer as these were not provided as far as we could see. The lighting throughout was sufficient to read and do our jigsaw, which is a bonus as it is often dim in lodges we have stayed in in the past. All in all, a good cottage with lots of plus points.

This is second time we have been here and know what to expect so had a very good .... This is second time we have been here and know what to expect so had a very good time,if you do not know you will require to take all food as there is nothing ,when I say nothing I mean nothing so take everything,there are plenty of shops nearbye,also no instruction for anything ,one tip dryer will require water collection at top empted or will not work,the toilet at top of building can be heard everywhere when flushed,

Mr Cunliffe

January 2018

There were no kitchen towel or hand towel or washing up liquid.. In fact nothing a all for to help us to keep the kitchen clean. Even when we left there was no brush etc to sweep up. All through cold stone floors. We did phone and ask for a heater which was given, but only heated a small area. The inside is fully open plan, nothing to shut the lounge and kitchen off from the corridor leading to all bedrooms. These consisted of one disabled en-suite. which my husband used as it was the only room with a proper shower and even that wasn't very good as the water didn't run out very quickly. The next room was a bedroom with en-suite, but the bath was only half size, with a large seat and half size bath, no good for me. I therefore used that bedroom and had to walk down the corridor to use the bathroom. The 3rd bedroom had bunk beds. The garden - none at the front, but very small at the back, not big enough for the dogs to run around in, and was covered in leaves, under which my husband found a lot of dogs mess which hadn't been cleaned from previous occupants. Not very nice. Definitely WOULD NOT recommend to anyone else. Brenda and Barry Cunliffe

There were 3 people n 3 dogs and everything we needed was there.. It was great having a bathroom each n the disabled wet room was extremely well designed. There was nothing too much trouble for Gemma (owner). The hot tub was great even when it rained.

Just got back today form Mill Lodge after spending a lovely week there. This will be our 3rd time staying there. It is a great place well equipped with all you need to make your stay go with a swing. The hot tub is nice after a long day out and about and the wifi works well specially if you are like me and have Vodafone phone signal is good but data isn't so good. The pub across the road is open after being shut for a while. We eat there one night and the food was very good . This is a great dog friendly place to stay the garden is safe for the them . We will be going back next year .

Mill Lodge is a lovely retreat.. It is both clean and comfortable and we hope to b able to go back sometime.

The cottage was great; spacious and well equipped. The three bathrooms made life in the morning very easy and it was a real treat to come back to the hot tub in the evenings too. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat, with easy access to the North coast of Norfolk.

Had a lovely week here, owners are very friendly and helpful. Fantastic facilities for the disabled person, house is well thought out. Nothing lacking. Hot tub a real boon. Would definitely visit again.

The area was excellent for all our dogs, they enjoyed the walks..
