About this property

Gaffers Cottage - sleeps 12 guests in 5 bedrooms

Gaffers cottage has been upgraded over the years and still retains many of the original features, character and charm with exposed beams, brickwork and wall ties.

There is a well-equipped kitchen with a range cooker and a breakfast area that opens into a generous dining room. The living room opens onto a sunny patio. Our large garden is bounded and divided by old walls and railings into three distinct areas with BBQ, lawns, courtyard and play areas. This property is ideal for a large family or group of friends to enjoy time away to relax and unwind or enjoy a special occasion.

Birthday weekend at spixworth
Me and my family stayed at Gaffers to celebrate our mums birthday and we loved it. We’ve stayed at Spixworth cottages a few times before and we always love coming back. The games room is great for the kids, there’s amazing walks to take our dogs on and the house itself is just great and has everything you need. There is always someone on hand to help too if there is ever anything you need. We love it here and we’ll definitely be back.

Another great stay
Beautiful cottage with everything you could possibly need. Lovely countryside setting whilst still being very close to Norwich. Friendly and helpful owners who answer every communication promptly. This is our 3rd year at Gaffers and we will be back next year.

A wonderful wedding week
Jack, Sheelah and the whole team at Spixworth Cottages were so helpful throughout our entire stay. We feel so lucky to have found the perfect venue for our wedding and to have had all our friends and family stay on site with us. The cottages were perfectly equipped and really comfortable, and the extra facilities like the games room and swimming pool were perfect in the heat! Thank you all so much. Cath and Tim

Gaffers Cottage
We all very much enjoyed our stay at Gaffers Cottage. Location is great both logistically and within the grounds of Spixworth Hall. The staff and service were very friendly and always helpful. The swimming pool was great! For an outdoor pool, it was always a very good temperature & very well maintained. Our brother-in-law also hugely enjoyed the private fishing lake. Our (very minor) areas of improvement would be some of the plants/trees within the garden could do with cutting back, particularly by the back gate. The garden furniture could perhaps be updated at some point as some family members struggled a bit with the chairs. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience & we would definitely return in the near future.
