It is a lovely spacious cottage (we are a family of 4 so the kids had their own rooms). Perfect location for exploring north Norfolk. The cottage could do with a tiny bit of TLC - couple of windows need attention, maybe a blind in the upstairs bathroom (?) and the extractor fans need a bit more oomph. Cottage was lovely and clean though, garden a nice addition and perfect for the kids. I imagine its very cosy in the winter with the woodburners going.

Everything was very clean and orderly. It was a great location for exploring the North Norfolk coast.

The cottage is a perfect layout for young children, and the boxes of toys were a pleasant surprise. The cottage had everything we needed like high chairs and cot. A stairgate would have been useful however. Perfect location for exploring so much of Norfolk, only 15 minutes to various beaches or plenty of places to explore inland. The village itself is lovely, with a playground we visited every day and very much enjoyed the ducks and ducklings.

Although cottage hd been occupied the previous week it smelt very damp & there was lots of condensation - no extractor in the bathroom mattress in small double definitely needs replacing ##### Julie Holmes This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Phillip I. 20 Oct 2017 #### The Duck Experience! Duck cottage located in lovely village of South Creek with a pub within walking distance serving good pub grub. Nights were cool so we took the liberty of lighting the log fire creating a warm, cosy ambience. Everything was to hand at Duck Cottage, nothing was forgotten in the way of amenities. Aptly named with the local ducks often wandering into the garden! ##### Phillip I.

The cottage is very cosy but surprisingly spacious – idea for our 3 little girls to play hide and seek in! They also loved the toys and books in the cottage that had been left for them to play with. The cottage is very comfortably but stylishly furnished – the big comfy beds were lovely at the end of busy days spent outdoors. The kitchen is really well equipped and it was great having a separate utility area with WC, sink, washing machine and microwave. The enclosed garden is charming and again very spacious. Duck Cottage is really well located – we did lots of day trips and got everywhere very easily. South Creake itself is very pretty – we fed the ducks a couple of times and the playground proved invaluable. As did the local pub where my parents stayed when they joined us for a day or two. Also, we found the neighbour in the cottage adjacent to Duck Cottage really helpful and friendly. We’d definitely stay here again – it felt a bit like home from home – ideal when the weather determines that you stay inside!

Cottage is in a great location to explore Norfolk. Loads of things to do. The cottage was really comfortable and we really enjoyed it. Will be back again!

There was mould under the coffee machine and dust along all the skirting boards in drawers etc. the upstairs toilet made a consistent dripping sound and the hot water was not always available The house was freezing when we arrived as the batteries in the thermostat were not working The house is also too noisy from the traffic that passes the windows and wakes you up at 5 in the morning . Proper double glazing is needed if you expect people to have a restful nights sleep ##### Penny F. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel and Spa Chester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-And-Spa-Chester.h527788.Hotel-Information) > > [Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Grosvenor-Pulford-Hotel-Spa.h790572.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [5* Detached Stone Cottage with a Private Indoor Pool (Not Shared)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashbourne-Hotels-5-Detached-Stone-Cottage-With-A-Private-Indoor-Pool.h31752210.Hotel-Information) > > [The Windermere Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-The-Windermere-Hotel.h13431161.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-The-Christchurch-Harbour-Hotel-And-Spa.h18097.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Cotswold Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-De-Vere-Cotswold-Water-Park.h1770053.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [Oulton Hall Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Hotels-Oulton-Hall-Hotel.h15948.Hotel-Information) > > [The Park Royal Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warrington-Hotels-The-Park-Royal.h24462.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Windsor Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Egham-Hotels-Fairmont-Windsor-Park.h60335617.Hotel-Information) > > [Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bolton-Hotels-Last-Drop-Village-Hotel-And-Spa.h9341.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham-Cotswolds](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Cheltenham.h65899.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Manchester-Airport.h75715089.Hotel-Information) > > [Ufford Park Woodbridge Hotel, Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woodbridge-Hotels-Ufford-Park-Woodbridge-Hotel.h12685.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwich-Hotels-Dunston-Hall.h519081.Hotel-Information) > > [Redworth Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newton-Aycliffe-Hotels-Redworth-Hall-Hotel.h517266.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Macdonald Old England Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Macdonald-Old-England-Hotel-Spa.h10610.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Manchester-Airport.h26104.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [ORIDA Maidstone Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maidstone-Hotels-ORIDA-Maidstone-Hotel.h74419166.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Aphrodites Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Aphrodites-Group.h901033.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Silverstone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Towcester-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Silverstone.h48251404.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Bristol Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Bristol-Airport.h16543862.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Wokefield Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reading-Hotels-De-Vere-Wokefield-Estate.h1044123.Hotel-Information)
