Excellent hosts who went of their way to ensure we received a lovely personal welcome. The kids loved using the pool every day and the cottage was cosy and full of charm and character.
Peaceful and comfortable property with easy check in and everything you need to make the stay like being at home.The pool was excellent and was well used everyday, multiple times!We found a lovely restaurant 20 mins away called The Barn at Terrington St John, but local restaurants and shops are walking distance from the property.
John and Sue were such lovely hosts. The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed. It made for a very relaxing stay. The pool was an added bonus and we were impressed with its size and warmth. A real plus.
Delamore Cottage was very comfortable and well equipped! Our little grandson loved the pool and went in everyday of our week’s stay. The kitchen has everything you need and Sue left us milk, bread, biscuits which was an added bonus! Sue kindly sent us an email beforehand with lots of places of interest which was very useful. We really enjoyed our stay!
We had a truly fantastic 7 day stay here. The cottage was a delight with all necessary amenities and more. The gardens were beautiful and tranquil, affording us a week of relaxation. The pool was a huge highlight enjoyed by us all.The true stars were John & Sue who were lovely hosts; kind, responsive and helpful. Thank you so much for your warmth and hospitality.
We had an amazing time staying at Delamore Cottage and the hosts Sue and John were very friendly and helpful, making the stay really enjoyable. Our daughters enjoyed the swimming pool which was at a perfect temperature and free to use whenever we wanted to use it. Fully recommend it if looking to stay in the area.
We spent a lovely week here with our 3 kids (17, 15 and 12) and Sully the big puppy.The owners, John and Sue, are just superb. Really relaxed and friendly, full of information on the locality and where to take the dog for good long walks nearby. Kids loved the pool, we loved the space and the time to unwind in this beautiful part of the world that we’ve never visited before. The place was spotless and very well equipped. Excellent!5 stars - brilliant!! Highly recommended.
We had a wonderful week- house and garden were so comfortable and well equipped - everything that’s needed- pool was warm and so much fun, beds were all really good too and John n Sue Sid everything to make our stay a memorable one. Thank you - we were certainly sad to leave
Amazing break over the Easter Holidays! The property was amazing and the pool was a huge hit with my children! The Gardens are beautiful and we were lucky to able to spend sometime sat out in the beautiful sunshine.We will definitely be back thanks so much!!
Stayed with my family for 4 nights. We had a great time and the pool was excellent. The hosts John and Sue were fantastic and very helpful. Lovely relaxing break.
Sue and John really were the most perfect hosts - Super friendly, communicative and full of great local advice! It was our daughter's birthday when we visited so they'd decorated the place with banners and balloons and left both our daughters some chocolates! It was the sweetest gesture!The pool was the highlight. We had exclusive use of the pool and garden swimming every day and the pool was always clean and well-heated. The double bedroom on the ground floor was also convenient to my elderly parents. All in all, a lovely week, thank you.
Easy to book, hosts were lovely. They were friendly, welcoming and communicative, allowing us our space but providing all that we needed plus an Easter extra treat for us.
We had a really relaxing 9 day break with our 2 kids particularly enjoying the lovely swimming pool. There was plenty to interest us all nearby, for example day trips to Sandringham and Burghley. John and Sue were great hosts, made us feel most welcome and were really responsive.
We had a lovely stay at Delamore cottage for my birthday. The cottage and adjoining house are set in beautiful grounds and as we were lucky with the weather really enjoyed sitting out on the patio and admiring the surroundings. The pool was a great addition after a day out sightseeing.
The hosts are a really nice friendly couple.
We would definately visit again.
Had a great stay, accommodation excellent, great welcome pack, pool at bonus. Loads to do in the surrounding area for families. Dog friendly. Friendly and helpful hosts. Hope to be back soon!
