There are three ground floor cottages adjoining Bay Tree House:
Woolly View, The FoxBurrow and Bobtail Corner.
Each unit has its own private entrance,
and has been designed with
great attention to detail to provide privacy and comfort.
Equipped with all you need for either a short break or longer stay,
the accommodation is warm and comfortable and the welcome equally so.
Each cottage has a TV/DVD player, hairdryer and alarm clock,
bed linen and towels are provided, and also included are electricity and heating.
Guests can either stay on a bed and breakfast or self-catering basis,
Christine is happy to provide a continental style breakfast and welcomes up to
two well-behaved dogs in each property. Guests can also park their car immediately
outside the properties - useful when it comes to unloading baggage and dogs....

Woolly View and the Fox Burrow sleep 2 people and Bobtail Corner can sleep 4
with the use of a sofa-bed. They each have a small, private outside area to sit
and enjoy to countryside views, Fynn, Jack and I did just that after our arrival;
me with the cream tea which had been thoughtfully left for me and the dogs
with their bowl of food (its tough being a dog!)
Coming back here after a hectic and hot day of agility was just wonderful.

We stayed in Fox Burrow,
which was ideal
for our short two night break. It has a small kitchen area,
en-suite shower room
and lovely,
comfortable bed.
There was plenty of room in the
bed/living
area
for the three of us,
I have stayed in
hotels which
had
smaller rooms
and so this
was spacious
by comparison.

A short walk from the house took us into the village where we followed a footpath
by the church, through woodland and into open fields – perfect for a quick stroll
before dinner. Passing friendly neighbours sitting in their gardens or walking through
the village
helped confirm the comfortable feel of the location.
It is always a bonus when staying at any dog friendly property, to be able to take
the
dogs for a walk without getting into the car, and that is certainly the case here.
We have already booked our next stay at Bay Tree House,
and I am certain there will be more.
The unique city of Norwich is steeped in history with its extraordinary and
outstanding
buildings, its famous people and its beautiful riverside.
In the countryside discover the
amazing unspoilt landscapes of the Norfolk Broads
where you can sail, canoe,
walk and cycle. You can hire sailing boats,
motor cruisers (by the hour or the day) you can even charter one of the
few remaining
Norfolk Wherry yachts, complete with crew.

The Boudicca Way is a long distance footpath which runs for approximately
36 miles between Diss and Norwich. It offers a great place to walk, cycle,
bird watch and explore. Other long distance paths within the area include
Marriotts Way,
a 21 mile (34 km) route from Norwich to Aylsham.
This path is on former railway lines and is also suitable for horse riders and
cyclists. Aylsham lies on another long distance walk, The Weavers’ Way,
which runs for 61 miles between Cromer and Great Yarmouth.
“Kett’s Country”, a 21 mile (34 km) route to Wymondham, commemorates
Robert Kett,
leader of Norfolk’s Peasants’ Revolt in 1549.
The Tas Valley Way takes you on a 25 mile
(40 km) tour of small villages
between Norwich and Attleborough. Bird-watching is a popular
pastime as the Broads are home
to some of the rarest wildlife including the
reclusive bittern.
Norfolk Wildlife Trust manages nearly 10,000 acres for
wildlife reserves right
across the county
with a number of these within easy
reach of Nowich,
and the RSPB has 5 or 6 reserves also within reach.

Fynn and Jack enjoy the accommodation and local walks. |
Situated on the edge of the small, peaceful village of Frettenham,
Bay Tree House enjoys a peaceful location surrounded by open
countryside and farmland and next to an animal sanctuary.
Ten minutes from the city of Norwich and airport, five minutes from the Broads
and just a short journey to the coast makes this an ideal base to explore
all that this part of Norfolk has to offer.
Bay Tree House is also conveniently located
for the coast, with Great Yarmouth
and the Broads to the east,
and Cromer and Sherringham to the north. |
