Shuttleworth Lodge Reviews

Kevin
Lovely cottage and grounds. Very peaceful and full of nature. Very relaxing. Plenty of room for six of us + dog. Grounds brilliant. Would certainly use again .
Isabel
Beautiful property ideally placed in North Norfolk, perfect for family and dog.
Hilary
The house is located down a wooded country lane and backs onto fields. It is really peaceful and quiet. The garden is huge and is surrounded by trees for the birds and wildlife. The house is decorated and furnished to a high standard and very comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and the utility room was extremely welcome because we had monsoon rain for three days, and we were able to dry everything out. It is a 15 minute drive to Wells and Holkham, which are the best beaches in Norfolk. Its honestly the best place I have every stayed in and would recommend it to anyone.
Nicola
Excellent accommodation, good location, could have been cleaner
Neil
Excellent location and property with lots of room both inside and out. Very peaceful and quiet with lots of wildlife.
Louise
Beautiful location, brilliant layout and everything you need for a great holiday. Amazing large garden for the dog to run around! Lovely to sit on the patio and enjoy the wildlife. So peaceful, a truly lovely area. Very central for exploring North Norfolk delights. The Lodge provides all kitchen utensils you may need and a barbecue outside, also books and games etc. great facilities. Appearance of garden needs attention, weeds growing at front entrance, house keeping needs fine tuning. Welcome bag needs improving to include milk for that first cuppa on arrival!
Michael
Lovely, well equipped lodge (would have loved to find a Nespresso coffee maker though!). Great garden - enjoyed breakfast in the morning sun. Our dog loved exploring the garden and chasing the squirrels! Very good location for coastal or countryside walks.

Shuttleworth Lodge is the perfect escape, peaceful yet a great location for exploring the North Norfolk area. Very clean, comfy beds, a real home from home.
