"We really enjoyed our stay at Granary cottage."
It had everything we needed & was a perfect place to stay while visiting family in the area. Will definitely book again.
-
"We stayed here while our house had a new bathroom fitted."
We live in a nearby village. The Granary is spacious, well-appointed and comfortable. It's also in a village which gives easy access to many Norfolk attractions.
-
"Nice property with pleasent owners, the shower cubicle needed a good clean, the larger oven needed good clean and some of the kitchen cupboards, soiling on bedroom carpet."
Pleasent area to stay in good location for exploring surrounding area of Norfolk.
-
"Lovely bungalow, quiet and peaceful in a nice village."
Equipped with everything you need and host very welcoming. Pub with great food just 5 mins away and very central to places of interest for days out. Would go back.
-
"Few changes would be helpful."
No shelf in shower to put shampoo,etc on. Another towel rail or two to hang towels after showering. Would have liked a waste paper bin in the bedroom. And maybe a clock in the living room. Based on other properties that we have stayed in. All good
-
"We loved being in this cottage but were disappointed with the china provided ie two little mugs and two odd cups, and the cottage was supposed to sleep four."
Not the standard usually provided by Sykes! Also, bathroom could have done with more than one small bath towel rail, Otherwise, really comfortable. Garden is a perfect sun trap.
-
"Spotlessly clean and ideal location for touring the area."
Host warm & welcoming but noted that there was a lack of utility products to use in the dishwasher and conflicting information regarding recycling.
-
"The cottage is in a lovely village, it has fish chip shop, a small general store, & a local pub which are all in walking distance."
The cottage is warm & welcoming, good for people with mobility problems, with two small additions to shower room a grab rail & a non slip mat in the shower. It has a lovely wide hall with wood floor through out apart from bedrooms. The surrounding area is beautiful & Norwich well worth a visit.
-
"The Granary Cottage is a lovely property."
It is comfortable, very clean and ideally located for exploring West and North Norfolk. My family and I had a great stay there and would highly recommend.
-
"Well-equipped cottage, fantastic location for visiting North Norfolk."
Warm and clean. Helpful hosts.
-
"A clean spacious property."
Kitchen well-equipped. Unfortunately unable to put the central heating on but had the living-room fire on. On the downside we found the settee and armchairs a bit old and uncomfortable. Pretty little garden and loads of room to park the car.

"2nd time we have stayed at the granary cottage, enjoyed both times"
-
"The property was clean and comfortable, with a friendly welcome from the owner."
The outdoor space was a nice place to relax, and we made use of the BBQ on one night though the grill may have seen better days it worked very well with when using BBQ trays on top of the grill. The bedrooms and beds were very comfy, as were the chairs/sofas in the living room. We did feel that the kitchen needed a few additional items like a salad bowl, and smaller tongs for the hob (the giant BBQ ones were a little too big!), and the frying pan seemed a little well worn, but was clean. We would only suggest one thing and that is the shower/bathroom is a little tired - though the shower worked very well, it is a little dated perhaps. Overall, we would recommend the property and area to friends and family - the one level accommodation meant that it met the needs of the lass able in the party very well. The Crown pub (walkable distance) is well worth a visit!
-
"Great property, great location, well presented."
We were vey comfortable and cosy in what was a colder than expected week of March. The property gave us a comfortable and cozy home to come back to after our day of travelling and touristing in the area.
-
"Excellent cosy cottage in a wonderful location."
Highly recommend.
-
"The cottage was very spacious and very well equipped There was just one thing let it down that was the shower cubicle."
..it is in need of a good clean regrout and a new shower head. The remainder of the cottage was spotless. The owner was very friendly.
-
"Great cottage, clean, well stocked and a brilliant location to discover North Norfolk."
The owners were available when needed, but otherwise they left us to enjoy our holiday. Would highly recommend.
-
"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Granary Cottage."

-
"Lovely cottage in a very friendly village with walks close by."
Cottage was very clean and inviting.
-
"We have loved our stay at Granary Cottage."
The location is ideal for exploring North Norfolk. We stayed in the height of a heatwave but the cottage was lovely and cool in the heat . The village facilities were really handy and we can definitely recommend the chippy down the road. The property is well loved and comfortable and had everything you would need and the owners are really friendly and welcoming. We can definitely recommend this property for an enjoyable holiday.
-

"Great cottage, very comfortable with excellent facilities."
Everything was very clean, lots of space and all really good. Excellent location for visits to National Trust properties, nature reserves, countryside walks and the coast. Looking forward to our next visit.

"Needs grab handles shower room new frying pan may be a higher lounge chair for a diisable person"
-
"This was our third stay at Granary Cottage, and each time, it has felt like a home from home."
The property is very comfortable and met all our needs. The location is great for exploring north and west Norfolk. The owners live next door and are friendly but not intrusive.
-
"Our best holiday this year"
-
"The Granary Cottage was excellent, very comfortable and well equipped with everything you may need for a quiet holiday."
Centrally located in the village, friendly but not intrusive owner next door.
-
"Very peaceful, clean and comfortable cottage, well situated for visiting all parts of Norfolk."
Plenty to see and do in the area, although the local pub, The Crown, despite being recommended, appeared to be having a bit of a crisis on the two nights we visited for food!! Over an hour wait on the second visit. The cottage did lack a few minor necessities such as washing up liquid, a washing up cloth, tablets for the dishwasher or any cleaning products - not the sort of things you think to bring with you! Also, a mirror in the second bedroom would be nice. These are only minor quibbles, though, and we still had a very pleasant stay. Would recommend.
-
"A very enjoyable stay."
Thank you.
-
"The Granary cottage is excellent for a holiday."
It is spotlessly clean on arrival and is very peaceful. It is ideally situated to visit not only countryside but also the Norfolk coast. The owners are on hand if required but leave you to enjoy a peaceful holiday. We would highly recommend the Granary Cottage. We love it.
-
"Well located cottage for visiting north Norfolk and within close proximity to a pub serving hearty fayre."
Probably affected by covid restrictions, kitchen good but desperately needs a new frying pan. Bathroom lacks proper mirror and lighting in the living room could be improved as natural light is limited and only one table lamp.
-
"Due to covid, every effort had been made to make us feel safe."
We had been to the cottage before and knew it was clean and comfortable. It is an ideal location for the coast and country. We cut out holiday short because of the new lockdown but enjoyed the time we had there and will be back.
-
"This cottage was a good base for exploring albeit through Covid-19."
The cottage itself was easy to locate. It was spacious and clean. Facilities provided were good although a mirror in second bedroom would be ideal. All precautions appear to have been taken in regards to keeping everyone safe. Some utensils and kitchen equipment may have been removed for this purpose but we managed. Thank you to the owners.
-
"The Cottage was very clean and comfortable and was an excellent base for a very enjoyable holiday, we will book again."
-
"The cottage was lovely and comfortable and had everything we needed."
We had a lovely holiday. Many Thanks
-
"We enjoyed our week’s stay at the cottage in these strange COVID-19 times very much and it was a welcome break."
The cottage is very clean, well-equipped and comfortable, and the location is picturesque and quiet. The owners are on hand and were friendly and helpful as needed. The cottage provided an excellent base for exploring north Norfolk and for linking up with our two sons and their families who were camping nearby. We would certainly consider a repeat visit.
-
"The owners live next door and are a lovely couple."
They introduced themselves then left us to enjoy our holiday. The facilities were excellent and the standard of decor matched the same standards. This was a bit worrying as we took our granddaughter and were constantly worried regarding possible damage Overall we would highly recommend this accommodation many thanks for a wonderful break
-
"Nothing was too much trouble very friendly good knowledge of local area ."
Would go back again .
-
"Lovely holiday."
The property was very nice as was the owner. We loved the area, wonderful! Situation was great for visiting Hunstanton, Norfolk Lavender, Sandringham & Walsingham. For people with mobility problems it was very good, cars parked not far from the front door & space to walk with a rollater inside. The only thing we found a problem, with us being older, was the sofas, they were very low & soft making it difficult to get up. Would consider a return stay.
-
"Slightly over priced, Paid over 400 worth between 325 and 375."
-
"The cottage is a lot bigger than we thought."
Great value. The owner is next door and shares an entrance drive - v. friendly but not at all intrusive. The cottage is much nicer than the village which suffers intermittently from heavy traffic/shooting.
-
"Absolutely ideal for a disabled person as my husband found out when he was able to manoeuvre his wheelchair around in the property."
These facilities are hard to find when hunting out holiday accommodation in this area. The owner was very helpful.
-
"This was our second visit to this property and once again it provided a very comfortable home from home."
The location of the property is ideal for exploring North Norfolk.
-
"The cottage was very convenient for my husband who uses a walking aid."
Very quiet and calm . near to many towns with interesting history and museums
-

Lovely cottage. Shop in nearby garage very friendly. Not far from pub. Excellent base for local trips.

The property
An attractive, single-storey brick and flint annexe, adjoining the owners' home in the small village of Gayton, seven miles from King's Lynn.
Well placed for touring the North Norfolk coast, this Gayton cottage provides very comfortable accommodation for couples and families, and set entirely across the ground floor with a convenient shower room, it's also suitable for guests with restricted mobility.
The light and spacious sitting room in this Norfolk cottage has French doors that open out to the rear garden with furniture, a pleasant place to enjoy an alfresco meal in the sun, whilst the two cosy bedrooms are warm and inviting, especially at the close of a busy day spent exploring.
A few minutes' walk brings you to the village pub and shops, whilst the historic market town of King's Lynn, just a short drive away, offers excellent amenities with its independent shops, eateries and pubs set along the charming cobbled streets.
Within easy reach of this cottage near King's Lynn are many attractions, including the splendid Sandringham Estate, just six miles away, Castle Acre and the National Trust manor house at Oxburgh Hall.
Hop on your bike to discover the Norfolk Coast Cycleway, spend a day beside the sea at the beautiful Holkham or the popular seaside resort of Hunstanton, or why not visit one of the nearby RSPB reserves?
This centrally-located Gayton cottage is a wonderful base for an enjoyable Norfolk break.
About the location
GAYTON
King's Lynn 7 miles; Swaffham 10 miles.
The small Norfolk village of Gayton is surrounded by charming, open countryside, and yet is within easy reach of the coast, offering two shops, a fish and chip shop and a pub, and host to a prominent historic windmill. Gayton lies seven miles to the east of the popular market town of King’s Lynn, which still retains the character, charm and many traditional buildings of its original function as a medieval port, set along its winding streets. With a mixture of old and new structures, King’s Lynn provides excellent amenities including a modern shopping centre, art galleries, museums, two theatres and its iconic Customs House. From Gayton, the North Norfolk Coast is within easy reach and will appeal to many, with its expansive golden sandy beaches, coastal walks and cycleways, RSPB reserves and nearby Sandringham House and Estate, Oxburgh Hall and Houghton Hall.
