"Our second visit to The Granary to visit friends, home from home it’s perfect!"
-
"We enjoyed a fantastic 2 week stay at The Granary courtesy of Stanley and Christine (and their daughter Helen)."
They were the perfect hosts and the accomodation was every bit as it was described, and more! Location was perfect for Norwich and the surrounding areas, along with easy access to the Suffolk, East and North Norfolk coastline. The garden was lovely and secure for our dog with access to an adjacent field for walking. Perfect, thank you! Claire, Sean and Crystal.

"We had a wonderful stay at The Granary!"
Due to traffic being very kind to us we arrived earlier than the check in time, but after contacting Christine & Stanley they said that this wasn’t a problem. We were met promptly and shown around the property and grounds - all lovely. The Granary was spotless, milk had been left for us in the fridge along with a bottle of local apple juice and a cake. There was also a tray with various condiments, tea bags, coffee etc. The bedrooms were spacious, with wardrobes and drawers, and the beds very comfortable. The wet room was amazing, and perfect for my elderly mum. There was a good selection of miniature toiletries in the bathroom cabinet too. Our cocker spaniel, Pippa, soon made friends and loved exploring the garden. There is also a field behind The Granary that we could use to walk her, with an opening in the far corner to various footpaths, which made for some excellent walks. It was a perfect base to explore Norfolk and what it has to offer. At the end of our stay we all said that it felt like we had been staying with friends, and mum said how safe she felt when we left her to take Pippa across the fields for a walk. Thank you Christine & Stanley for a wonderful holiday, we’d like to visit again in the future, if you’ll have us!

"We lived nearby for several years and it was a perfect base for us to catch up with our old friends and neighbours."
The cottage is beautifully presented, very comfortable, in private grounds giving us all we wanted. It is perfectly placed to explore Norwich and beyond.

"We just loved our stay at The Granary!"
This was our second visit and we just love everything this area of Norfolk has to offer, there really is something for everyone! The Granary is beautifully presented everything has been thought of and it is spotlessly clean. Just perfect if you have a dog too as there are brilliant spaces and walks right on the door step. Christine & Stanley are perfect hosts and could not have made us more welcome. We will most definitely be back! Thank you so much Karen & Robin

"We had fabulous time at The Granary."
"Home from Home". Exceptional property. Very comfortable and relaxing. All facilities available. Great base for exploring Suffolk and Norfolk. Dog friendly was important to us and The Granary was outstanding. Not only a garden but field to walk and exercise the dog. Would highly recommend. Christine and Stanley our hosts were very welcoming. Would definitely book The Granary again!

Highly recommend

"This is a fantastic property, by far the best that we have stayed at in Norfolk."
And the owners are great, and eager to help if needed. My sister-in-laws and I will definitely return to the Granary, and not bother to look for a different airbnb in the area. The kitchen is well appointed, the beds are very comfortable and as 'oldies' we appreciated the wet room shower, and a separate toilet.

"We stayed over Easter as a family of 4."
The location is ideal for trips to the broads, the coast, Norwich and some lovely places around Norfolk. The property is an old barn, converted to a high standard with a lovely kitchen and beautiful surroundings. The farm is stunning and the walks around the area are picturesque. The owners Christine and Stanley were great hosts and couldn’t be more hospitable if they tried. Really helpful and left us alone during our stay unless we needed something or advice on the local area. Would highly recommend!

"The Granary is by far the best we have stayed!"
Everything has been thought of to make for a memorable, comfortable and relaxing stay. Perfect for dog owners The Granary is situated in the quiet village of Fritton lots of walks and a very secure exercise field right next door. The Granary is close to convenient shops in Long Stratton and within easy reach of many of Norfolks amazing pubs, cafes, restaurants, the coast, the Broads and many places of interest to visit. Stanley and Christine could not have been kinder hosts nothing was too much trouble. A true gem we look forward to returning. Karen & Robin
