Fabulous house

The location of Plumtrees is perfect, situated away from the main road, near The Green and overlooking the salt marshes. There are a number of lovely walks straight from the house and the pubs and Deli are within easy walking distance. The house itself was wonderful, great layout, warm, comfortable rooms and very nicely furnished.

Birthday weekend away

Having previously enjoyed many weekends away in this country over the last year including through Norfolk Hideaways we had high expectations of the property, spending a little more on a 3 night stay then we would normally due to a special birthday. The property was lovely and in a fabulous location, however just not very welcoming. It felt sparse and cold with attention to detail missing. We looked forward to the open fire but had only been left 4 logs for our first evening. These burnt in no time. Luckily we had come prepared with a bag of logs. The fridge was clean but empty, a bottle of milk would not have gone amiss. Perhaps a small welcome hamper would be helpful. The fridge also had a very strong odour, a bit like bleach which remained all weekend. Not very pleasant for storing food. The side lamps in the lounge did not work and when we went to replace the bulbs from those left in the drawer, they didn’t work either. Some of the pillows have seen better days and we left we stripped the bed to be helpful, to find stains on the mattress protector, which probably should have been replaced. There was also an ornament in the bedroom that had been broken previously and really should have been removed rather than leaving it in pieces. Despite the little issues, the house was nice, the master bedroom lovely with its views and the location for walks from the doorstep fabulous. The local places to eat were really good too. We had a lovely weekend and with the issues resolved would recommend the property.

Plumtrees Revisited (4th time)

Plumtrees is a spacious, well located holiday home in the village of Thornham. We have stayed here 4 times - 4 adults and a 10yr old. It is perfect for our needs and we would hope to return. It is comfortable, warm and well equipped with views over Thornham Marsh to the sea and Titchwell RSPB reserve. A barn owl regularly hunts over the nearby village green. Thornham is a lovely village and Plumtrees gives easy access to the 3 pubs/restaurants, Thornham Deli and playing fields, Thornham Harbour and coastal walks. The positives vastly outweigh any negatives. However, as regular and hopefully returning customers, we would note that the towels are of average quality and bath sheets really ought to be provided. The copper bottomed saucepans take an age to heat and as has been commented on in the visitors book, a 4 piece toaster should replace the existing one. Please see these as constructive comments, designed to further improve the very good customer experience.

Comfortable Accommodation in a wonderful Location

We very much enjoyed our stay in Plumtrees and we would definitely book again, especially post-covid. The reason I have only given 3 for cleanliness and customer service is that there was no way of knowing how clean the property was in covid terms. It had clearly been cleaned but what else had been done? Had all the surfaces in all the rooms been cleaned with an approved anti-viral cleaner? Ditto the handrail down the stairs, the door and window handles and the light switches? Had the house been thoroughly aired? As there was no mention of any of this on the website, or in the information we were sent, I contacted Norfolk Hideaways but they were no help. They just said: "all our cleaners know the protocols" but, as they do not publish those protocols, that was no help. As a result, we opened all doors, windows and skylights upon arrival for 30 minutes and we cleaned all of the above ourselves. It took us about an hour. Plumtrees has some quirky design features, such as the light fitting in the Master Bedroom being a made from a dustbin and jam jars, but these do not detract from its comfort. It also has several low beams which is unexpected for a modern house, one towards the bottom of the main stairs and one in the en-suite bathroom. Being a tall male, I could not use the en-suite toilet but, as we had the whole house to ourselves, I used the family bathroom or downstairs toilet so it was not a problem. The views from the Master bedroom are magnificent, both to the north (towards the sea) and the east (towards RSPB Titchwell). We spent many happy hours enjoying those views - the house is worth booking for them alone! If I were to make one suggestion to improve the property it would be to upgrade the bed in the Master Bedroom from king (5ft wide) to super-king (6ft wide). There is more than enough room and it would be a major benefit.
