Overview
Property code: 36880

A converted former coach house, this property is set within the grounds of a 17th century manor house. The beamed ceilings and exposed brickwork lend the property a characterful feel and remind guests of its history and heritage. The ground floor is comfortable and light-filled, whilst upstairs there are two bedrooms, one of which benefits from a sanctuary-like bathroom with a sumptuous free-standing bath.

The small village of Sloley is located within easy reach of the coast as well as the Norfolk Broads, and is ideal for those who are looking for somewhere quiet and rural with plenty of opportunities for pleasant country walks. 1.5 miles north of the property, the neighbouring village of Worstead has a handy railway station, as well as a pub and chip shop: perfect for evenings when you don’t fancy cooking.

5 miles south of this well-situated cottage, the town of Wroxham is known as the gateway to the Norfolk Broads and is the perfect place to hire boats for the day. For active families, BeWILDerwood is a fun forest adventure park with an excellent range of adventure playgrounds.

Location is great for getting to different places around norfolk. Overall I would say this cottage is adequate. It's advertised as dog friendly but I would say it's least dog friendly place we've been to and lots of rules around the property. Our dog enjoyed the small enclosed garden though as well as my daughter. It's worth noting that there is noRead more shops or pubs etc nearby so everything is driving distance which we didn't mind at all also no bbqs allowed in garden! Hide

My dog and I stayed at Sloley Old Stables for a week. The cottage is warm and comfortable. Fully equipped, convenient location to Norwich and the seaside. I worked from the cottage during the workdays and the Internet connection was excellent.

We spent a lovely week at the Old Stables. The converted building, to the rear of the main house, is a thoughtful blend of original features and modern updates. There were 2 of us plus our Norfolk Terrier. We found the accommodation welcoming, warm, cosy, and well equipped (change in plans meant we cooked-in almost every night). The small, quiet, aRead morend private garden was ideal to enjoy lunch. We saw more stars than we are used to and even glimpsed part of the Lyrid meteor shower. Great hosts! Hide

Great location, easy access to the coast, nearby stores etc. Quiet, secluded, but the top floor bedrooms not well insulated and ventilated, can get really stuffy and unbeareably hot, even after a warm day.

Location of the cottage was ideal for trips to the coast and to the nearby Norfolk Broads. The cottage itself was nice, although the master bedroom bed was not very comfortable in our view (very soft). The cottage is positioned in lovely grounds and we enjoyed the outside spaces, including the private garden.

We had a wonderful time staying at the stables. It is well appointed and if you want a break from the modern world then it is just the ticket. The internet is poor and so was my phone signal, the closest shop and pub are about four miles away, and at night you can hear a pin drop, perfect.

Absolutely wonderful place. So comfortable and clean. The owners are the nicest people, very kind and helpful. The only complaint we had was that a week isnt long enough! The Old Stables is in a peaceful setting but close enough to the Broads and the Coast. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a break in North Norfolk. Only issue was we hadRead more trouble finding it at first- directions from Holiday Cottages not the best! Thank you for a SUPAW stay, our dog loved it too. Hide
