Orchards Retreat

Buff is a fantastic host. We felt very welcome from the moment that we arrived. We love the house and the garden. Any gardener would love it. The house was charming and well located. The bedroom was large. Buff ensured a fresh supply of tea, coffee, milk and biscuits. The breakfasts were amazing with everything that one would need. For evening meals we would recommend Masala Garden and the Reedham Ferry Inn.

Such a wonderful house with beautiful gardens. We stayed at Orchards Retreat for one night to break up our walk along the Wherryman's Way from Great Yarmouth to Norwich. We could have paid more for a hotel, but there's no way we'd have got such a generously-sized room, peaceful setting, nor had the pleasure of meeting such a kind and generous host - Buff really did make us feel at home... and she serves a mean home-cooked breakfast! Other reviewers have commented on the decor being in need of an update. Whilst it's a fair argument, we found our room clean, relaxing and thoroughly charming, and would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful stay without pretence. Say hi to Boris the cat if you see him!

We took all three b&b rooms for a local wedding. They were all huge, extremely comfy beds and lovely views out of the windows. Lovely friendly hosts and a good breakfast. There's no denying a few places could do with a bit of decorating but it really didn't detract for us. It was a beautiful charming house.
