Spinney's Den, Knapton

We had a lovely 4 night stay at Spinneys Den. The owners were very welcoming but unobtrusive during our stay. The cottage was very well equipped, very clean and the owners had thought of everything we needed. Very dog friendly garden and also supplied dog bed, bowls towels etc. Lots of added extras most cottages never supply. Beautiful location near to numerous places to visit,wonderful large hot tub, comfy bed, great shower, great parking, views from the balcony were amazing, we saw deer in the field adjacent and you can even see the sea! Loved the welcome goodies of freshly made scones, jam butter milk and cheese baguette and personalised welcome card . The only negative was having no free wifi. We think it is a necessity now in holiday accommodation. That aside it was one of the best cottages we have stayed and would definitely recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Spinneys Den. The facilities are excellent and everything has been considered for a comfortable stay. The hosts were friendly and really helpful. We would highly recommend a stay at Spinneys Den and would love to stay again. The hot tub was a definite winner even in the cold weather!. Thanks so much for your hospitality.

Was a lovely stay in a lovely area! House was well stocked and there was plenty of info on the area provided.

Cottage was spotlessly clean and the owners had thought of everything to enable a relaxing enjoyable stay, from welcome pack with home made scones to condiments to umbrellas and waterproofs. The cottage is ideally located for visiting the coast or historic houses.

We had such a lovely stay at the Spinney. We have stayed in many rented cottages around the world and this one really stood out for being the best . The thoughtful touches like home made scones, toiletries supplied which went above and beyond and the spotless accommodation. The kitchen was so well resourced and had everything you could possibly think of and more. Thank you so much John for providing an outstanding service.

Absolutely stunning property. Well maintained, extremely clean well presented. Loved the little touches such as sauce sachets, milk in fridge, scones delicious! and the book full of ideas, walks and brochures for local areas. Hot tub was perfect after a day out exploring followed by a jigsaw puzzle

Had a lovely stay at the property! However on arrival we were questioning whether we were at the right place. Pictures led us to believe that the owners of the property we not going to be within ten meters of the property also in the pictures shown the area around the hot tub would be secluded and not that the owners could see right through. However was a lovely property, great location and I would advise that the gate into the owners back garden is removed and replaced with bushes.

Our 3rd visit to Spinney Den so that says it all, spotlessly clean and welcoming, the hosts Nikki and John are very accommodating and thought of everything to help make your holiday special and relaxing and evenings spent in the hot tub rounded off a lovely day exploring Norfolk. We will definitely be returning... Thankyou Nikki and John

Spinneys den was fabulous. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and was so well equipped with many extras that we havent had in other holiday accommodations. The location was perfect with great views across the countryside to the sea. Nikki and John were great hosts and the welcome scones and treats on arrival were lovely. We would definitely recommend and will be returning.

Beautiful property, extremely clean with everything needed for a great stay. The little extras were a lovely touch and the hot tub was amazing! The bed and pillows were so comfy. I have frequent insomnia but I slept so amazingly here! It's the most relaxed I've been in a while. One of the best holiday cottages we have stayed in. We will definitely be back!

The property was exactly as described and fair to say probably surpassed our expectations, extremely clean, comfortable and equipped with everything required for a holiday week. Thank you for the welcoming bits and pieces, very much appreciated after our long journey. Views from the patio doorsbalcony were lovely, looking to the sea, watching the ships float by, we downloaded a ship app to identify them and their destinations a bit sad I know lovely at night watching their bright lights. Spinneys Den is located perfectly for visits to the Broads, the Norfolk Coast, we visited Sandringham and Blickling Estate, both an easy drive away. We would recommend this property to our family and friends, a lovely week, maybe one day we will return. Thank you for sharing your property with us.

1010. It was a lovely stay with a hot tub to enjoy and a fabulous balcony with views across open fields to the sea near Mundersley and Bacton Sands. We really felt we were pampered for four nights. This upside down house living area upstairs with access to a lovely balcony was great to come home to after trips out to the local coast, woods and National Trust properties. The owners have put a lot of thought into little touches to make you feel welcome and your stay perfect, including for our dog. A great selection of games, books, Blu Rays & DVDs, dog basket, dog treats, cool bag, some beach stuff, a secure garden and balcony. Hospitality gifts were a nice thought too after a long drive. Its a bolt hole for two the open views across the landscape and the big skies means it doesnt feel small. Top tip take binoculars if youre into wild life. The property is set back from a road, but we didnt find road noise too intrusive and at night it was very quiet. Owners next door, Nikki and John, were welcoming, polite and on hand if we needed to ask questions or query anything. They set a high bar for standards. The place was spotless. We have no hesitation in recommending it to friends and family.

We had an amazing stay with our little sausage dog. The hosts had thought of everything from a dog bed to towels for the hot tub. The den is located at the top of a driveway, just a few meters from the owners house, however you would not know. The hosts were so quiet and just left us to do our own thing, only seeing them when we were coming back from a day out at the local beach. The hot tub is also private as well as the balcony from the living space. I highly recommend this property and we will definitely come back! Loved everything about it. Be mindful this space has no internet provided however I did have 5G phone signal.

Yes, we arrived around 6pm on the 27th and were disappointed to find that our 'cottage' was infact a lego house on the end of someone's driveway. Good things first, the place was very clean and nicely presented. It had a nice view from a little balcony, though this was somewhat tainted by a main road only 30 or so metres away national speed limit, on which cars were bombing past every few seconds. It was also nice to only be a 5 minute drive from the nearest beach, which was great. The main issues we had, were an infestation on the Monday morning, of tiny flealike insects, that we were still finding on our clothes the following day back at home. We don't know if it was something that came in from the outside, or if it was an existing problem we hadn't noticed until the Monday, when they were all over the walls and ceiling upstairs, but not downstairs. Finally, and the main cause for concern, and the reason our early departure, was the owner, John. We'd had no dealings with either of the owners, save for a nice welcoming platter left out for our arrival. On the Saturday early evening, my wife had looked inside the hot tub to see if it was ready for use, and had come back in to shower first as was laid out in the property rule book, which had infinitely more 'don'ts' than 'do's', and put on her costume. When she went back out to try it, she noticed the straps had been resecured on the cover. She asked if I'd been out and refastened the straps, which I hadn't, but slightly confused, we chose to take a trip to the beach instead to walk the dog. The following day, we decided to actually use the hot tub, and was in it for around 40 mins or so, when it cut out. I remember it saying in the rule book that it might trip and where to find the fusebox, so we got out and came inside to check that was the reason it had stopped working. I thought it wise to dry off before accessing the fuse box, and after I'd sorted it I was putting my shorts and tshirt back on when there was a knock on the door. This guy who I had to assume was John, because he didn't say hi, or introduce himself at all. He simply said 'could you make sure you close the cover on the hot tub when you finish using it'. I was completely confused by his attitude and failure to even say hi, and explained that we'd literally only got out a few minutes before because it had tripped, and was drying off and dressing prior to sorting the hot tub. He continued over to the hot tub and proceeded to close it down and I just closed the door and went back inside. My wife immediately raised the very fair point, which was how did he know? we got out of the hot tub, and within only a matter of minutes he was at the door. The hot tub, despite the suggestion that it would be in some way private, was overlooked by the second, larger lego house on their drive, however, that place appeared unoccupied during our stay. The speed in which 'John' appeared and his general manner, completely freaked my wife out and she wanted to leave on the Sunday, as she was made to feel as though we were under some kind of observation. We decided to wait until the Monday in the hope that the trips to the beach could in some make up for the tiny space and weird owner, not mention we'd paid out over 600 for this. We woke up next morning to the infestation and decided enough was enough. We started to pack the car, and as we were doing so, John suddenly appeared at the hot tub again! .... seriously, this was a nightmare and not the birthday treat for my wife that I had intended. We stayed in all, one evening and one full day, and had it not been for the nearby beach, we'd have left even sooner. As we left, I told John we were leaving and he never even had the good grace to ask why. It felt very much as though they want the money that these properties bring, but they don't actually want the guests. We left the place utterly spotless and drove home. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this.

This property was one of the best we have ever stayed in. Beautifully decorated and Spotlessly clean, it was equipped with everything you could need. From travelling with your dog, to exploring the coastline or taking a picnic for a day at the beach. The hot tub was superb.

Can't fault spinnys den perfect retreat definitely recommend for those who like the quiet life. Nikki n john lovely couple very helpful can't do anough for u . 1010 will differently go back

Beautiful accommodation, loved the hot tub . Hosts were fabulous. We loved the scones & welcome pack on arrival. Niki also was very helpful in helping me to surprise my new husband with some Fizz. Flowers & chocolates as it was our honeymoon

Fantastic location and with great facilities. The highlight is the balcony and view of the countryside and see. Would thoroughly recommend.

Really lovely stay, despite the rain! Spinney's Den was very clean and tidy, a true home from home! The hot tub was one of the biggest ones we have had. The balcony is a great place to chill, listen to the bird song and admire the views. The welcome pack, tailored to our dietary needs was a lovely touch. We loved the reverse living, great shower and a very comfy bed and a toilet on both floors. No WiFi as stated in the info but we had a strong 4G signal. A good variety of DVD's to watch when not out in the hot tub or exploring the local area. We definitely hope to return again for a longer stay.

Thank you Nikki and John for a wonderful relaxing weekend at Spinneys Den and the delicious welcome scones.

This holiday was honestly amazing! We loved it that much we are going to book again for next year hopefully. The property was exactly what it said on the description and more. Waking up every morning and sitting on the balcony watching the deer bounce about the field was definitely a highlight. The walks around the property for your four legged friends are stunning and so easy to find. We were very lucky weather wise but even if it rained all week there was still so much to do with the TV, a lot of DVDs to choose from and board games and puzzles! The hosts were so lovely too, if you needed anything they were there but also gave you your own privacy! It really was a perfect break away in the UK.

Lovely clean, cosy and well equipped property. Well situated for exploring North Norfolk. Plenty of useful information and leaflets on places to visit. Also well laid out information file about the property and area left by the owners Nikki and John. We had a lovely welcome on arrival and beautiful homemade scones and welcome pack. Hot Tub was a must after a day exploring.

Excellent quality, very well set out . Modern yet homely. Great location. Plenty to of places to visit. 100 recommend .

We had 2 weeks away in the lovely cottage. Thank you to the owners who were very welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed for our stay. Stunning cottage, best hottub we have used! Incredibly powerful jets and views of the fields. Our husky loved her stay also, it was perfect for dogs as within 10mins from Spinney den you can walk to the woods, or 510mins in a car can get to more woods or the beach. We felt relaxed from the moment we arrived, such peaceful surroundings. Would 100 recommend and would definitely visit again. Thank you!

Beautifully presented, comfortable place to stay. Website picture does not do the accommodation justice.

We had an absolutely wonderful week stay. My partner and I came away for my birthday and it most definitely did not disappoint. Fresh bread and homemade scones on arrival was an added bonus! Beautifully comfortable stay, relaxing hot tub and games provided. We could not fault it and we cant wait to recommend this to familyfriends and return ourselves!

Lovely property, would highly recommend

The cottage was very clean, comfortable and cosy. The location was ideal for visiting surrounding areas. Would have no hesitation in recommending it to friends and in my book a five star

A fantastic property ideally placed for exploring the Norfolk Coast. We found Spinney's Den to be beautifully maintained to a high standard with good quality fittings and furnishings. The Hot Tub was a superb addition and most welcome after a busy day in the countryside. The hosts Nikki and John were very welcoming and the gifts on arrival were delicious.

Lovely place to stay, feel so welcome on arrival with all the fresh scones and bread. Perfect location with lots of places nearby to visit and amazing hot tub to relax in after a busy day. Dog also loved all her treats and the bed provided. Second visit and will definitely be going for a third

What a spectacular upside down cottage situated in the lovely Norfolk countryside. Great views of the countryside and the sea in the distance, off the balcony. Very handily situated for the beaches and The Broads. The cottage is very well equipped, with the added bonus of a hot tub in the enclosed garden. The friendly owners, Nikki andJohn, were very helpful in pointing out places of interest to visit. Would definitely recommend this property.

Absolutely lovely house with incredible views from the balcony, feels really nice and secluded. Hot tub was brilliant, we could have easily not even left to explore the surrounding areas! Only small issue was couldnt get the coffee machine to work but there was plenty of sachets so not the end of the world. Definitely will be visiting again in the future for a hopefully longer stay!

Have stopped in many holiday lets over the years but never one better than this one. Lovely accommodation with everything one could wish for. Very dog friendly. Well situated for the beach and other walks. Owner extremely friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone.

Our second stay at Spinney Den and we've already booked it again, so that says everything! The property is of a high standard, Nikki and John are the perfect host's and thought of everything you may need to make your holiday one to remember. The hot tub is amazing especially after a full day exploring beautiful Norfolk. Looking forward already to our return visit.

This is a fantastic little place to stay for a couple with a dog. Although the village itself does not have much in terms of amenities , it is very pretty and peaceful. The lodge is great, hot tub fab, even in the unexpected September sunshine. It was nice to be left to our own devices and know someone was close at hand if we needed anything. Could not get the coffee machine to work however. Everything else was just as described and just as required and I would recommend this property.

A fabulous stay, a repeat visit for us Just as enjoyable as the first Well be back Dave

Amazing property and so well equipped. Welcome pack including cheese baguette grapes and Milk was a really nice touch . I would definitely stay at Spinneys Den again .

Lovely welcome, spotlessly clean. Lovely relaxing stay. Only improvement I could suggest would be wifi provision but I would definitely rebook this property in the future.

Spinneys Den is a lovely property close to a sandy beach. The welcome pack was much appreciated together with the personalised welcome letter!. There are many small features available which John and Nikki place for use by anyone using their property. The hot tub is a joyous addition to soak in after a long day., and the view from the balcony is lovely. Thank you John and Nikki for a fantastic stay at your Den ! Andy and Elaine.

Spinneys Den is really lovely, clean and well equipped. The balcony and garden area both have table and chairs and get the sun, and the hot tub is great! We made use of the maps and ample information on the local area which the owners have thoughtfully provided. A great place to stay, and I would recommend it as an ideal base for exploring North Norfolk.
