Hosts Charlotte and Justin extended a really warm welcome to their eclectic home where one felt part of the extended family situated in the middle of the beautiful village of Walsingham. Well situated for visiting beautiful North Norfolk. I much enjoyed talking to them both and appreciate their help in sorting out some minor problems we had encountered. The relaxed self service breakfast made for an easy holiday timetable having slept well in the comfortable bed in a colourful bedroom. Would recommend if you like a stay with lots of personality.

Really loved that we could take the bikes into the house and those of us with an ebike could easily charge. Host also offered us clothes washing facilities.

This property was very close to all points of interest in Little Walsingham. The host was welcoming and it was a treat to stay in such an old and atmospheric building.

I liked everything really, though one thing is I am old and fat and don't do well with getting out of baths and so I would have preferred a shower, and the shower attachment had seen better days. I am sure there could have been one found if I had asked so it isn't really an issue (except maybe in my fitness regime) and I made do - the jug helped! Only other thing worth a mention maybe is that when the neighbour flushes it sounds like it is coming into the room beside the bed! I know more about their toilet habits that I really want to. These are two very minor issues in comparison to the overall fun of staying there but I mention them so they might be addressed. appreciating that it is not easy in an old house like this.

There is a wide spectrum of places to stay on the market. From your average bland formulaic hotel - which has its place - to your crazy great-Aunt Betty's country house where you played as kids. The Old Bakehouse is definitely up the far end towards the latter. It is set in a very interesting old house, in a lovely small country village. There are three letting rooms and the guests are welcomed to do their own thing, or eat and spend some time in the large common room with other guests and family. I quite liked that, especially as I was alone this time. The musical and artistic hosts are passionate and interesting and interested in people. The house has undeniable charm, creaky floors, interesting furniture and art. That to me is more attractive and charming and makes up for any perceived or imagined shortfalls in facilities. I didn't have my dog but I was pleased to see they are very dog friendly too. I'd recommend and if in the area I'd be back. Nearby pub great for dinner too.

Nothing to do with the property itself, but a visitor with a vehicle does need to think about parking in relation to unpacking. There is a sizeable public car park nearby, but it does get very busy in the daytime even out of season. I parked there with ease after hours in winter and brought my gear down the 80 or so yards involved. If you are not that fit, try and unload FAST on the front step. (It's a narrowish main street. You will not be popular if you block it).

Breakfast was based around fresh croissants. Self-service, so therefore very flexible on time.

Shower, took a long time to heat up and the water didn’t drain away very well, so I had to stand in Coldwater to have a shower.

Very friendly owners. Quirky property. Good location for our needs.

Would have liked to start the day with a cooked breakfast but the continental one was still very nice

Quietness and comfort, especially the bed. The building just oozes history and character. Nice to appreciate the artistic talent of the hosts.

Breakfast was basic, croissants were dry, other alternatives were cereal and toast. Expected more for an included continental breakfast. Room was quite cold

Justin very welcoming. Interesting, historical building, self contained room and bathroom.
