Location was great, easy access for exploring surrounding areas. Handy for supermarkets as Waitrose & Tesco Superstore were only a 5 min drive away plus there is an Asda (Metro?) within a 5 min walk from property which was very useful. Free Car Park is only 50 yards away. Easy parking on road at side of property (for a few minutes only) to unload. No problem getting key code, all went smoothly for us. Property had everything you could need, it was well furnished & kitted out, bed was comfortable & property immaculately clean & warm.
Shower room (including only loo) were modern & absolutely fine BUT for us we didn't like it being off the kitchen. Would've liked access to main TV channels not just Netflix etc. These are just our personal preferences though & probably wouldn't effect anyone else.

Great property for a short stay holiday with a free car park 50 yards away
Dust bin men emptying bins at 5am on a Monday morning- although I appreciate they need to empty them!

Everything! Anything you could need was there. We liked the location, the set up of the apartment was perfect.
Few Cobwebs but expected in summer.

location
Great disappointment. Despite my size 10 55kg frame, I could feel the springs through the mattress of the poor quality bed. Contacted owner who then put a ‘mattress topper’ on the bed, (without letting me know they were going to access the property while I wasn’t there) which made little difference. Fortunately a relative living nearby brought a proper mattress topper which made the bed bearable. The spiral staircase to access the bedroom was slippery with a rickety plastic railing so glad I wasn’t staying here with children, although a stair gate was in place. If you’re not worried about the bed or stairs it’s an adequate place for a short stay but several minor issues make this less comfortable than it could, or should, be. As a solo traveller it’s also a security concern that the key code for the main door and my room door were the same.

So, so clean! Often, I arrive at properties and need to clean them before we settle in - but not this apartment! It was also really warm and comfortable. Lots of cooking equipment, right down to scales if you need them. The fridge/ice compartment was a decent size for our 3 night stay, and would probably be fine for longer. Lovely to have a coffee machine and all the proper cups and glasses for any beverage we fancied. The sofa bed was much appreciated by by teenage son. I liked having the bed upstairs, to give him space, but still being able to hear him if there were any problems - as it was a spiral staircase through an opening. Just a quick note - the door code needs the hashtag key pressed before the number. A kind stranger helped us figure this out.

good location for wedding party ; entrance door security very welcome ; easy access to free parking
close to road & felt a little overlooked & exposed to passers by ( but that probably because I’m not used to that at home)

The location, small town close to shops and pubs. Very convenient if you are visiting Norfolk coast and Norwich. The place was tastefully decorated and there was even a Dolce Gusto coffee machine. The free car park just a few metres up the road was very good too!
Nothing. All was good.

Great apartment, quiet and comfortable, no distance from the centre of Swaffham.
The smallest of niggles; it was very hot (height of summer!) so a fan would have been appreciated. No worries though. Altogether excellent.

Being only a 5 minute walk from all local amenities was most welcome. The cottage was above our expectations and all the facilities were great.

We spent a lovely few nights at the Barn while visiting for a family birthday. The apartment was lovely, stylish and comfortable. Jilly was very helpful and gave clear check in directions. Although very close to the High Street, the apartment was very quiet. The free car park is really close by. We'll be back!

The property was exceptionally clean and tidy when we arrived and we were really happy with everything provided. Everything you could think of was to hand including fully equipped kitchen, coffee maker, washing machine, board games, iron/board, clothes horse, extra bedding, leaflets, hairdryer and more. The TV had direct access to Netflix and Amazon Prime which was nice for quieter evenings watching films. The double bed was very comfortable and spacious and the whole apartment felt very fresh and modern whilst staying homely. It was located in a nice area, a few minutes walk to the town centre, with free parking over the road. We had no issues with the apartment or gaining access to it as we were emailed a door code in advance.
The only thing that bothered us were that the communal waste bins were located inside the entrance hall of the property and as these filled up, they began to smell. This was rectified quickly as the hosts came and jet washed them, but would be better if they were located outside.

We had everything we needed for a short holiday. The property was clean and close to the activities we had booked.
The smell from the bins in the hallway. The downstairs area was quite small, a kitchen with a sofa but ok for two adults and a child.
5.0 / 5.0
The property was spotless and very nicely furnished down a quiet side road. Entry with the key code worked well as emailed to you before arrival. Would definitely be staying again very highly recommend this property.

The cleaner was such a delight as being a housekeeper myself she couldn't do more to help. Was so clean and smelling fresh. Everything was thought of. Bed was so so comfy. Location was ideal for buses etc etc. Will be staying again.
The walls were very thin so could hear guests arriving late at night and doors slamming.
I would recommend a telecom system to be applied for things like food delivery as I ordered iceland and I had no idea they attempted delivery as there was no way of contacting my specific room. But I honestly couldn't fault anything else.
The hallway was very cold so I would recommend even some electric heaters that have a timer on them as it was very very cold.
