We had a wonderful long weekend at this cosy, spacious and beautifully equipped house. Three children (11, 8 and 5) came with us, along with my husband and my mother, and none of them wanted to leave. There was so much for them to enjoy — books, games, toys, and a brilliant table tennis table in the garage.The hosts have thought of everything, including beach accessories like windbreaks and crabbing nets, which we used at Thornham Old Harbour. Brancaster Beach was stunning, and Sandringham Estate was a fantastic day out for the children too.The beds were very comfortable, and the bathrooms were excellent with underfloor heating and lovely showers. The garden was well maintained and felt very safe for the children to play while the adults relaxed.We also had a delicious Sunday lunch at The Gin Tap. A perfect family stay.

Great location, lovely village, clean accomodation, well stocked kitchen appliances, enough space for different groups to be occupied!

This was our second visit to this lovely house and it was perfect - again! It really feels like a home from home. Elizabeth sent a text to check that we’d settled in ok and was very friendly and helpful. We hope to visit again for a time in the future! Thank you :-)

Thanks for your kind review and we are very pleased you enjoyed staying in Manningham House. The table tennis is usually a big hit with families and can get quite competitive! Please do stay again when you return to Norfolk. You will be very welcome.
A simple online process to rent the property and good communication from the owner when the time came to pay the rental balance.

It is important to be able to book easily and securely so I am glad that worked well for you. From your correspondence with me during your stay, you seemed to enjoy your long weekend at Manningham House very much and were very comfortable In our house. We loved your comment that if it wasn’t for having to return to work you might have taken up squatting there! Do please consider our house if you plan another weekend in Norfolk. You will be very welcome.
A comfortable stay. Spacious house and good location. Providing own towels and shower mats was extra packing and washing and stripping beds was extra unnecessary task. Think it should be all included in the price. However an enjoyable weeks stay with the family.

We are delighted you enjoyed the week in Manningham House and that you appreciated the location of the house. Your comment about towels and bathmats has been noted but may I just point out that this information is available in the Amenities section of the Vrbo Manningham House page so guests are made aware ahead of booking.
Very clean and spacious house with all the essentials and more that you would need for a great stay. Super communication from the owner at all times. A lovely location, peaceful village with amazing shop and lots of great days out in the local area. Would definitely stay again for another holiday.

Very pleased you enjoyed your stay and that you found everything you needed in the house. We love the Gin Trap too - good food and just opposite, what more could you ask for? We look forward to welcoming you back. Thank you for your kind review.
In a lovely village with a great shop, this house was perfect for us. We had lots of room to spread out and it is very well equipped. We knew where we wanted to go during our stay so didn’t need the fantastic array of leaflets and information on the area

Thank you for your kind review. I am glad you enjoyed your weekend in this lovely part of Norfolk and were happy in our house. Do come back another time! You will be very welcome.
We had everything we needed and the Owner was very helpful. The single bed in the left hand side room at the back of the house is more suitable for a child. I am very light so it was reasonable for me.

Thank you for the review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay in Manningham House and felt the house was well equipped for your requirements. It is worth noting that each single room has a standard sized single bed as indicated in the Vrbo house description, not a child’s sized single. Both are solid John Lewis beds with wooden frames.
Wonderful property exactly as shown in fact better, so homely cosy and warm the owner was so informative on the property and area very attentive, we would definitely recommend to other guest and we would love to stay there again in the future.

Thank you! Delighted you enjoyed your stay in Manningham House. Please do stay with us again.
We stayed in this property 2 years ago and decided to return as we wanted to visit Sandringham.
The property was in fantastic condition and the on suite bathroom had been replaced since the previous visit which was a pleasant surprise.
Overall a lovely peaceful place for a short break with a fantastic pub across the road.

We are delighted you enjoyed another stay at Manningham House. We love the new en-suite too and I hope you also liked the new front door and windows. It is important to keep on top of maintenance for all to enjoy. Do come and stay with us again!
We absolutely loved this property, spacious, clean, great location for exploring the local area, nice enclosed garden, ample parking for two cars, perfect for all ages, from 2 to 73! There was great communication with the owners before we travelled and afterwards. Can’t recommend enough.

About the host
Hosted by elizabeth cooke
My husband and I live in Essex but we love spending time in Norfolk. Ringstead is that hidden gem: close to the beaches but just off the coast road. Children and families all love it!
Why they chose this property
Norfolk is simply stunning! The huge expanses of sandy beaches never cease to amaze us. In winter they offer bracing walks and in the height of summer holidays they can still feel remote. Norfolk is known for its huge skies, often portrayed by local artists and photographers. The pubs, the farm shops, the fish shops all keep us well fed during our stay and the car goes back home laden with goodies for the following week. Manningham House used to be our regular weekend bolt hole from London as it is only just over two hours by car. Having moved to the countryside we still enjoy our visits to the most beautiful coastline in the UK!
What makes this property unique
The village of Ringstead is perfectly located: only 5-10 minutes from the beaches and coast road but also in the tranquility of the countryside. It is well catered for with a shop, pub, playground, antiques centre and garden centre - good for browsing. We always come away with something we never knew we needed! For those wanting a quiet time, the back garden of Manningham House is a suntrap and many an afternoon is spent having a bbq and wandering across to the pub.
