"Great little cottage for our weekend away."
10month old loved it! Nice size bedroom. 2 bathrooms one with shower for us and one with a bath for little one. Richard was welcoming and came to help when we had a problem even his dog came to say hello. He Set up the cot and high chair ready for us too. Chickens wondering around and ponies in the feild behind. Fishing lakes close too. We even nearly caught a fish. Not much signal in area and wifi dropped in and out alot unless you stood by front door,but wasn't really an issue only when we wanted to Google the local area. Bed was comfy and living room was nice to chill and watch tv in the evenings. Well presented cottage, kitchen had everything we needed. Would love to come back again. Thank you for a lovely little break away from home!

"We visited Stable View two years ago and liked it so much we decided to go back this year and this is unusual for us as we don't usually visit the same place twice."
We were not disappointed and only had one little problem which was sorted out by the owner very quickly.

"Peaceful location, friendly and helpful staff."

"Lovely little cottage, perfect location for our stay."
Having two bathrooms is a great addition for a small property. The kitchen had most things, but the cooking equipment could do with looking through as some was missing, but it didn't hinder our stay. The owner was lovely and easy to talk to, I would recommend this to anyone wanting to stay central to Norfolk.

"A lovely barn conversion on a farm."
Very clean. It has a washing/drying machine and a walk-in shower, neither is mentioned in the description, so it's a nice surprise. Good symmetrical wifi at least 20 plus Mbps. There is lots of wildlife to see – sitting outside having a nightcap, lots of bats flying around, a very rare sight these days. There are 2 horses, 2 ponies, and two pigs to see, plus the chickens, and one night we saw a young hedgehog.

"Very pleasant week in Norfolk."
Lovely quiet rural setting in farmyard with chickens and ponies. Great dog walks in the surrounding fields. There’s no mention in the description of the second bathroom with large shower unit. This was a welcome surprise and should be included in the description.

"Stable View was clean and comfortable, extremely well equipped, and felt like a home from home."
It’s in a great location for exploring Norfolk and parts of Suffolk.

"Comfortable cottage in a convenient location."
Very well-equipped, and with shower room as well as bathroom. Friendly owners were always on hand if anything needed. Just perfect.

"This was our first time using sykes cottages, very impressed."
The property was well catered for, was nice to have somewhere with a fully stocked kitchen and some decent knives and cutlery. The beds were very comfy and the memory pillows for me were amazing, heating and hot water when you need it. It's a stable barn conversion so tall ceilings and beams which unfortunately are dusty and full of cob webbs, but did not impact our stay, but cleaning could be notched up a little bit in all areas. Chickens outside the bedroom window each morning was amusing and seeing the horses and pigs. Also fishing lakes are nice, although hubby didn't catch a single fish!! Would definitely recommend and return.

"Great find for a stay in this lovely area."
Excellent price and quality. The host was very helpful and quick to reply. Just a couple of minute's drive from the village, which has a late night opening small supermarket. Will certainly return for my next local visit.
-
"Lovely, clean, warm & well equipped."
Very friendly owner. Handy dog walks on site. chickens in yard which some may not be comfortable with. Our only gripe is the ice box in fridge needed defrosting.

"We enjoyed our stay at Stable View."
However, we felt that it might not be to everyone's taste. The accommodation was clean, modern and well equipped. While we knew the cottage was on a working farm, it is not clear that the property is part of a building which also houses chickens. We keep fowl ourselves so were unconcerned, but others might find such close proximity - the chickens were keen to join us in the outdoor area and one came into the kitchen- might be less appealing for some people, especially any with anxiety about birds. The owner was pleasant and friendly but there were no instructions of any kind in the cottage and he only appeared on the second day - again, we were fine, but some clients may want a bit more help. There are good opportunities to walk a dog on site and a large recreation/ sports ground opposite the entrance. Hingham is attractive and has a good shop, foodie pub and chippy. We enjoyed exploring the local area and would be happy to return.

Our cottage was fine and we didn’t have any problems at all. We have used your services for many years.
-
"We were not happy with not being able to enter cottage until 5pm but we accepted it as cottage looked lovely when booking."
Other than that the cottage was up to a high standard and the owner made us feel welcome. We came away wishing we had booked two weeks.
-
"We had a lovely time the accommodation was brilliant and comfortable everything we wanted ,plenty of fields to walk round for the dog."
The owners were friendly and always around if needed my husband enjoyed the fishing even though he didn't catch anything for the week
-
"Great fishing!"
Spacious cottage. Lovely animals. Great to see all the little ducklings on the pond. Some farm machinery noise. Nice local village -closed Monday. Wymondham & the Abbey was a nice place to visit but beware even the tea shops close at 2pm! Loved our day on the Broads. Shame the journey there and back took so long.

"We had a lovely stay at stable view it was even better than the photos with an extra shower room."
The cottage has everything we needed and the farm was Lovely our autistic son loved it and was very relaxed he especially loved his morning visit from the cockerel which gave us a call at a very respectful 9:30am. We will rebook for sure.
-
"A lovely place to stay and central for us to explore the parts of Norfolk that we had come to see."

-
"Stable View is a brilliant place to stay in a lovely part of Norfolk."
The cottage is extremely well furnished and very comfortable. You will find all the facilities necessary. We were very impressed at the cleanliness throughout. The owners have now installed a lovely shower room with excellent shower, which had not been advertised. A lovely surprise!!
-
"A lovely base, perfectly placed for exploring"
-
"Second time we have used Stable cottage and can say it is a well maintained,well equiped,clean place to stay."
Spoke to the owners on a couple of occasions and nothing is a problem for them, always friendly and helpful. Nice central location and 2 good fishing lakes (even though the fish werent playing this time). I would certainly use again as a base for seeing Norfolk due to its location. Tried the White hart pub in Hingham and can definately recommend the meals there and Chalforts tea rooms are well worth a visit.

"We had a wonderful stay at Stable View Cottage."
Beautifully presented,spotlessly clean,and everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay in a lovely location.Hingham village itself is really nice with quite a bit of history,and the White Hart Hotel serves lovely food,with friendly staff who went out of their way to accommodate us for an evening meal on at least two occasions.Norfolk is a beautiful county,and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring some of the Towns and Villages,both inland and on the coast.

"Great site Quiet location excellent fishing lakes."

"A superb location to spend a week away whether for touring or for a relaxing break."
The cottage is amazing. Spotless with high quality furnishing, comfortable bed and everything you need already there. The fishing is brilliant and the owners, although busy around the farm all day, always took the time to chat and show interest to ensure everything was okay. An excellent property and highly recommended.
-
"If you had any reason to visit Norfolk then I would say check these folks out first, because with the hospitality and service these people offer they will be fully booked very early for next year."
-
"This was a great place to stay Great little cottage and the fishing was excellent"
-
"~Stable view cottage is a top class holiday spot."
the cottage was spotlessly clean with a great range of facitities. A ten minute walk puts you in the middle of a lovely village with bakers, cafes and a pub. A lovely secluded and quiet spot to just relax and chill. If you like fishing the 2 lakes hold some excellent carp and tench along with other smaller silver fish. The staff always had time to speak and asked if everything was ok on more than one occasion and nothing was a problem for them.
-
"My husband and I had a lovely week at Stable View, it is a very nice cottage, the only drawback for older people is the lack of a shower."
It is very difficult getting in and out of the bath without hand holds. Mentioned this to the owners who said they would hopefully be fitting a shower sometime in the future. The weather was perfect and the fishing was very good
-
"Great holiday,very friendly owners,clean and tidy through out site."
Fishing good to.many thanks.
-

Our grandson loved talking to the chickens and watching the rabbits running around the farm yard. Didn't want for anything during our stay.
-
"We enjoyed our stay at Stable BI would have preferred a built in shower to a bath."

Quietly nestling amidst the stunning Norfolk countryside, the ancient town of Hingham boasts two village greens, a pub serving good food, and a number of independent amenities including a variety of shops, along with an array of Georgian architecture not to be missed.
