Norbank Cottage was excellent, we both had a lovely week there..

The attractiveness of Norbank cottage as a holiday destination has everything to do with the hosts Terry and Ann.. They thought of pretty well everything when equipping the cottage and while you are staying there they manage to find the perfect balance between privacy and helpfulness.. The landscape and gardens are also special with a strong link to the calm of the countryside.

There is something you should be aware of.. The only negative experience of our trip was the complete frustration of being unable to enter In contact with your customer service. Day after day left hanging on for 10 or 20 minutes before just giving up.We need to talk to someone about having had to cut short our holiday after just asking for an extension. Yesterday I completed your satisfaction survey and asked for someone from Sykes to contact me. I do not know if you got the survey or the message. Probably not as you have repeated the survey request today. So, Norbank Cottage is great, but sadly Sykes admin is not.

As soon as we got there we knew we would want to go back, this was a perfect little retreat for us with lots to see and explore locally - sadly illness meant we had to cut short our stay, so we will definitely go back as we had barely started exploring

The heating is radiators they were fine just a bit warm in upstairs were the beds were.. We had to make sure we switched them off about 2 hours before we went to bed. Everything else was fine the kitchen was well equipped. The only thing we found a bit disconcerting was the amount of Ladybirds in the accommodation.

We had a lovely week at this spotlessly clean, well thought out in it's design cottage situated in the owner's garden and with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We didn't meet the owners because they were on holiday but they had the courtesy to call us before our arrival to let us know they would not be there, informing us of our point of contact should there be any problems, which there weren't. We loved hearing the sound of the steam train regularly from Bressingham Steam Museum.

Mr Visbeen

The cottage was very nice, but the owners were even nicer.. They were so helpful and friendly that we can recommend this cottage to everybody. The surrounded area is wonderful, you can walk miles in fens and heath parks, visit old churches and beautiful villages with interesting pubs..

Mrs Mary H

July 2018

This cottage is a true gem. Very cosy and welcoming. The owners Ann and Terry made us feel really at home. We had a great holiday with plenty to do in Norfolk and Suffolk. We have already booked again.

A cosy well-appointed cottage.. Fabulous owners – Terry and Ann, friendly. Beautiful gardens to sit in. The cottage is close to Bressingham Gardens and Steam Museum. Well worth a visit. An ideal base to discover Norfolk and Suffolk including Southwold, Thetford Forest etc.

Mrs Allman

June 2018

We didn't meet the owners because they were on holiday for the duration of our stay but they gave us a courtesy call prior to our arrival to let us know they were away and to let us know arrangements should there be any problems or if we needed anything.. As it was, there were no problems and we didn't need anything because the owners had clearly made arrangements for the cottage to be spotlessly clean and with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable, had even left us scones, cream and jam. We really enjoyed our week and would certainly recommend / return ourselves, my "extra tall" husband learned exactly how to duck and dive the low beams by the second day but for me of "average height" I didn't hit my head once :-)

Mr Harvey

April 2018

Very satisfactory cottage, had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable..

Mrs valentine

Weather wasn't brilliant but that did not stop us touring around the country side.. At the end of each day we looked forward to getting back to our cosy cottage.

Mr Hanson

Well equipped but need to mind your head in the bedroom area if a tall person.. Could do with a bit more heat in the living area.

What a beautiful cosey home, I can honestly say the best anniversary holiday we have been on, so much to do in the area.. Mr and Mrs Better were so kind and welcoming even when we turned up too early! Would absolutely go again, the little cottage had everything we needed, was really warm for the dead of winter, and the facilities (cooking, shower etc) were top quality. Absolutely loved it, thank you so much! Charlotte and William

Could not fault this cottage, it was very clean and well equipped. In a great location for exploring Norfolk and Suffolk. Had six wonderful days there, we wanted to bring the cottage home with us. Would highly recommend!

Mr Leigh

January 2016

It was a well presented cottage which contained everything you would need, a true home from home. The owner was very friendly.

Mrs Thorogood

November 2015

Norbank cottage was a very clean, well presented property. The owners were very hospitable and everything was as it should be for an enjoyable stay. I would happily recommend this property to friends and I would be more than happy to stay there again myself. It was convenient for all the attractions of Norfolk. We were there as a couple but it would be ideal for a single person as it's not too isolated and the owners' property is adjacent to the holiday let. For such a tiny cottage the storage was plentiful and there is a lovely outside seating area.

Ms Birbeck

October 2015

The cottage was comfortable, very beautifully converted, spotlessly clean and well equipped. There were instructions for everything and everything worked. The family were welcoming, helpful, friendly and generous without being intrusive. The garden was lovely. I couldn't fault the property or the hosts.

The hospitality of the owners was fantastic. The Cottage was clean, comfortable and well equipped, in a lovely rural location. We just had a fabulous time.

Mr Newman

May 2015

This is a small but perfectly formed cottage cleverly designed and finished to a high standard. Ideal for exploring South Norfolk and Suffolk and just a 10min car ride from Diss with a good range of shops and supermarkets.

Mrs White

It is a lovely cottage in a lovely location with exceptionally kind friendly owners who have made this small and very quaint cottage a home from home. We will definitely be going back again and strongly recommend it. It was a stones throw away from the wonderful gardens at Bressingham Gardens and there was a very nice pub down the road, it had easy access to many places to visit.

Mr Hill

The owners were very friendly and helpful, and the cottage was lovely, very cosy and comfortable. We also love the area, there is lots to see and do, with the Bressingham steam museum just up the road and well worth a visit. Would definitely return.

Mr Byrne-fraser

Norbank is a charming cottage in lovely, peaceful surroundings, yet close enough to the town of Diss. Our hosts were very welcoming and attentive. The cottage itself is a fabulous conversion of a grade 2 listed building and is immaculately kept and a credit to it's owners.

Mr Evans

April 2015

A very pleasant short break in a well presented property and surroundings. We were greeted with a warm welcome that lasted for the duration of the stay. We hope to return again in the near future.

Ms Hughes

The Cottage is small but very well designed, light and modern. I have stayed here several times now, and will hopefully continue to do so. It is handy for the lovely little town of Diss and the amazing Bressingham Gardens is just down the road. The owners are very welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended!

In a lovely location and was spotlessly clean. It had all you needed for 2 people and lovely friendly owners.
