Highly recommend Lower Wood Farm cottages definitely have the wow factor! Absolutely everything you need for a fabulous family holiday. It’s very quiet and a perfect safe location. The facilities are brilliant for young children and early teens ,with bikes, footballs, pedal toys and the play barn is like a toy shop. The swimming pool is lovely and warm and well maintained. The cottages are beautifully decorated and equipped with practically everything you need for your stay. The only things we actually needed to buy were cling film, aluminium foil and extra loo rolls! The only small issue was condensation in the bathroom after showering, probably needs a better ventilator installed. Would love to come again

We had a wonderful time at Lower wood farm. The accommodation was super clean and comfortable. It was well stocked with equipment in the kitchen and there were thoughtful extras like a step stool for little ones in the bathroom. The pool was so welcome on a hot day but my boys favourite thing was the play barn and the big fields to run around on. The grounds were immaculate - it was the perfect week away!

Excellent place to stay amenities very good, our 4 yeat old grandson thoroughly enjoyed the vast amount of different toys etc. . in the play barn. We used the bikes several times to ride up the lane to get fresh milk and eggs . The pool is great which we used each day. The booking system works well.
Well maintained grounds. Jill and the team work very hard keeping everything in top condition.

This is our fifth stay, first time in Pipkin and we had just as lovely a time as the previous 4. Pipkin is the smallest but just as comfortable and well furnished as the others (Bramley, Appleloft and The Cottage). The 2 bedrooms are large, perfect for us staying with our grandson. We particularly liked the kitchen/dining/lounge area, and there is all the equipment provided to make our 4 day break easy.
The swimming pool is a big draw, and we were able to book an hour each day for a private swimming time. We could have had a second swim in a shared time slot. The playbarn was helpful particularly this time (weather a bit on the cold side!) as our 12 year old loved trying to beat his Grandpa at pool. There is something for every age group here.
Jill and her team work so hard on the grounds, they look immaculate.

The accommodation and services were fantastic. Great location for visiting lots of beaches and attractions nearby. But plenty to do at Lower Farm that we could have spent more time doing... bike riding,walking, playing in the games room, swimming, just chilling in the sunshine. We wished we had a couple of days longer there and would definitely recommend it. Great quality!

We had a lovely long weekend break in Pipkin Cottage and from the moment we arrived we were impressed. Everything was so clean, the facilities were great, a big bonus for our young daughters who could play outdoors and in the play barn. The swimming pool is a great bonus and it was great that we could book it out just for us to use.
Looking forward to returning in the near future and have already recommended to family and friends.

Lower wood Farm is a beautiful quiet rural location amazingly well cared for and clean. The facilities in the area are fine. The swimming pool is well managed but for elderly people it is very difficult to get into the water through lack of rails and hand holds. This was a pity for us.

From the moment we arrived, our stay was made relaxed and enjoyable. We arrived late however we were still met with a smile by Jill who showed us round the Cottage and Pool and then let us enjoy the tea and cake waiting for us in our kitchen. The pool is even better than the photos, and we used this numerous times over our weekend stay. The cottage was spotless, very comfortable and had everything we needed and more! The Playbarn and outside play area, with its football nets, bikes for all to use and pool table, was a real hit with my 7 year old ( as was the Smart TV/Wifi so we could enjoy a family Netflix movie night after a long day of exploring and swimming!)
Horsey Seals were less than a 30 minute drive away and Casiter beach less than 10 minutes.
Lower Wood Farm is a real treasure, beautiful location, 5* accommodation and facilities and a perfect location to explore Norfolk.

My wife and I (along with our 2 year old) enjoyed our stay at Lower Wood Farm
The grounds are nicely landscaped and there is a great play barn for children and adults alike.
Only drawback is there are not as many animals on the farm, so my son was slightly disappointed.

Pipkin cottage was clean and comfortable and we had everything we needed. Covid safety rules were followed to a high standard and we felt safe. The organisation for use of the pool was excellent, booked and for single cottage/family use. The barbeque area was well thought out as were the play lawn spaces. All staff we met were really helpful and pleasant.

Lower Wood Farm is not only beautiful but also immaculately kept and packed full of activities for families with young children. We couldn't believe how much was available (at no extra cost) for our little one, who had the time of her life! The pool is clean and a lovely temperature, the cottage we stayed in was perfect for us and was unbelievably clean (cleaner than some 5* expensive hotels we've stayed in), the welcome afternoon tea was a lovely touch and the play barn was heaven for any toddler! Jill was on hand for assistance at any time. I really can't fault our week away and we will definitely be returning!

Can highly recommend Lower Wood Farm Cottages. As a family we took 3 cottages which were equipped with everything we needed and spotlessly clean. Because of Covid restrictions booking to use of the swimming pool was an added benefit. The four grandchildren enjoyed the play barn and being able to run wild. Also borrowing bicycles was a bonus. The grounds were beautifully kept.

We enjoyed our stay in two bedroomed/ four person Pipkin Cottage. The farm complex was in a beautiful peaceful location surrounded by fields & cute livestock. The grounds were impeccable with attractive flower displays & public footpaths radiating in different directions for walks to local villages & the River Bure. Our accommodation was comfortable & well provisioned with free wifi. We enjoyed the lovely indoor swimming pool on site & the games room. The farm is a good base from which to explore the Broads & the coastal resorts. Our host Jill was very helpful. We would recommend a stay at Lower Wood Farm.

Outstanding accommodation in an idyllic and tranquil setting. The cottage was spotlessly clean and fully equipped. The facilities were limited by the need to comply with COVID-19 restrictions - the loss of the play barn was particularly missed during inclement weather. The swimming pool was understandably time limited but always immaculately presented. Jill went out of her way to welcome and ensure continuing care throughout our stay.

Lovely luxury cottages that have deeply thought about all the little detail for both children and adults. Very well equipped kitchen, high spec smart TV, soft luxury towels, very comfortable beds and overall a very clean, well maintained cottage. The fields and grounds are wonderful though due to weather we couldn't use the extensive kids play park facilities. Superb!

We made great use of the lovely indoor swimming pool as well as the Play Barn - what a great addition this is and ideal for children of all ages.
Cottage was well equipped, beds were very comfortable and we made use of the more than adequate kitchen facilities.#
We would have no hesitation in recommending to others and will definitely be back!

I have stayed at Lowerwood Farm as part of a family group with children of all ages and I’ve stayed on my own to have a break and recharge my inner batteries. It ticks every box for me, the pool is superb, the cottages second to none, safe places for children to run and play and nothing is too much trouble for Jill. There are so many things to do in the surrounding areas. The beaches nearby are lovely, good places to eat and Norwich is brilliant for shopping. Can’t wait to go back again.

We stayed in Pipkin and it was lovely and clean and very happy to come and stay again here. The Lower Wood Farm is a nice place to have a base to explore from or just stay in. There is a nice swimming pool to have a chill by or have a nice swim.
They have a nice barn part to sit in with a pool table etc and On-site laundry facilities washing machines & dryer if required to do some washing to save getting home with loads.
Jill and co are all on hand to help and made our stay very welcome.

We had a short break with our 8 year old granddaughter and we all had a thoroughly good time. She enjoyed the facilities and we enjoyed the rest while she was busy! She made a friend and together they swam, rode ponies and bicycles, all available on site. The surrounding area provided lots to do and see plus good restaurants. Overall a comfortable and relaxing stay with everything we required.

Highly recommended.
The accommodation was clean, comfortable and had all mod cons (30 mbps wi-fi, big screen smart TV, DVD player, fully equipped kitchen).
The on-site facilities were also excellent (swimming pool, play barn, selection of bikes).
Finally, the location was great with many fun things only a short drive away (Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens, Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach, the Broads) as well as more practical things (supermarkets).
Highly recommended.

Had a lovely stay at Pipkin Cottage. There was much appreciated cakes, tea and coffee upon arrival. The cottage was very cosy and homely. The games room was fun for adults as well as children, as was the pool.
The only down side was the weather, which did not effect our fun filled stay.

This was my second time staying here. It is a fantastic place for families, as the facilities are second to none. My daughters loved playing in the play barn, on the bikes and scooters and climbing frames. Everywhere is immaculate, inside and out. The swimming pool is a great size and spotless too! We had mixed weather, but that is the great thing about staying there. There is plenty to do inside if it rains. Can’t recommend enough.

We enjoyed a very relaxing week appreciating the excellent indoor pool, the well looked after grounds and the quality of design of the whole site. Our week was particularly quiet because of the time of year but we could see what a great site this is for people with young children. Pipkin was very comfortable and well equipped. Jill was very helpful, informative and welcoming.
The location of the site gives the benefits of quiet countryside with access to many good beaches within a short car journey.

Looking at Lower Wood Farm on the internet I had high hopes for the accommodation and facilities. Upon arrival it exceeded all my expectations!!
We booked last minute but service was great and very accommodating. The cottage was set up for us with an 8 month old in tow, with Cot and high chair already in place and upon investigating the play barn there were toys and books for children of all ages (and adults). The pool was clean and warm which was fantastic for the young one.
I cannot recommend this place highly enough and will definitely be staying again.

Lower Wood Farm Cottages was a pleasure to stay at. The entire property is immaculate and very contemporary. There wasn't anything lacking there. This is a quiet place with loads of space to spread out in comfort and the staff was friendly. We traveled with a 21 month old and they have a play barn with tons of toys for toddlers! There is a fantastic open grassy area with room for kids to run until they exhaust themselves. There are adult bikes available for use and some tiny bikes as well. The horses at the fence were friendly but watch your kids fingers as they think everything is a carrot. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves staying here. We initially though it was a bit expensive but in the end we felt it was definitely worth it. No regrets at all!

We actually stayed in Russet as we were kindly upgraded for extra space. Clean, comfortable, lovely beds and well equipped kitchen.
The play barn and pool were amazing - only 1 other cottage occupied so felt like we had the place to ourselves. Having indoor space for the children to run around and play was great in a chilly November afternoon. Pool warm and lovely atmosphere when it was getting dark outside.

Lower Wood farm's facilities were immaculate and maintained to a very high standard, especially the garden, pool and play barn which also doubled as a local information centre and contained an exhaustive supply of activities and places to visit, all neatly arranged.
The cottages were nearly all occupied during our stay but the complex had obviously been laid out to preserve the individual privacy of each rental at all times.
Pipkin cottage was spacious and well designed with views across open fields from both bedrooms.
It all made for a very relaxing and enjoyable week especially as we were able to make full use of the pool and games room each evening after returning from a day's walking or cruising the broads.

This was our first family holiday in Norfolk. There were 5 adults and 2 children and we had two cottages between us, Pipkin and The Cottage. Jill was an exceptional host and reassured us if there was anything we needed to just ask. We did not need to do this as Lower Wood Farm Cottages has everything to suit the needs of young children to grandparents. The cottages were fully equipped and the furnishings excellent. The swimming pool and play barn were used daily often before we went out and always on our return. First class accommodation all round. We will return!

Third time that we have used Lowerwood and it gets better each time.
In our case this is because our kids are at the age now where they can start to appreciate the excellent pool and games room.
The cottages are really nicely furnished and decorated ...classy countrylife..styley.
Appliances , fittings all excellent.
Location is brilliant to explore the North Norfolk Coast / Broads area...and actually if you are into walking , wildlife etc there is no real need to get in the car some really good footpaths straight from the farm.
Observed and photographed Marsh Harriers @ 300 yards from the Farm.
Finally the staff are fantastic ,we had a couple of minor issues (not anyones fault) and the staff dealt with them fantastically.
PS. cakes waiting on arrival.....lovely touch.

We had a wonderful weekend away at Lower Wood Farms, in the lovely Pipkin Cottage. It's a great setting, with some amazing touches. I would recommend this place for anyone, esp those with young families!
The pool is wonderful, kept warm all year round (we were there in November, and it was very cold outside!!) and child friendly, including provision of arm bands, floats and some toys. The play barn is huge, and combined with the outdoor play area has enough toys, climbing frames and activities to keep children occupied for hours and hours on end!
A parents dream - enough here to keep young children occupied and plenty for parents to enjoy as well!

For a wet and windy week in Norfolk this was a perfect location with 2 small children. The cottage is warm and cosey with a well equiped kitchen. The pool and play barn kept children and parents alike entertained for the wet and windy weather that made the walk on the beach impossible. Our second stay at Lower Wood Farm and would go again

Clean, well maintained, lots of facilities and play barn for kids. Downside for us is they are shared with adjacent caravan site (which also allows dogs, whereas cottages don't) which wasn't made clear before we booked and which really should have been.
James from Cambridge stayed at Pipkin for 7 nights in September 2016

At Lower Wood Farm we are very lucky to have a select Caravan Club CL which takes just five caravans.
This is an adult only site (maximum 10 persons). As we do not take dogs in the cottages this facility blends
with guests that need to bring their pet if Grandparents are members of the Caravan Club. Dogs are not permitted within the cottage complex or facilities. We are also very lucky to have several footpaths leading from the farm which again makes dog walking a pleasure. These busy footpaths are used by other dog walkers, ramblers and cyclists.
We do not consider this being a disadvantage to our cottage guests as the average age of the Caravan Club members is over 40 years old with very well behaved pets, their use of facilities is not an issue with our cottage guests, with most caravan guests staying on the CL preferring to only use the pool when families have gone out for the day. The CL is self contained with their own toilet and shower facility.
Fab stay

Pipkin Cottage had everything we needed from a holiday cottage. The farm is close to lots of beaches and attractions, and we loved having the option of the indoor swimming pool on site for a spare half hour! The owners had thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable and were very helpful and friendly.

The is the 3rd time we have stayed at Lower Wood Farm and each time in a different cottage. Whilst Pipkin is the smallest of the cottages we have stayed in it was to the same high standard of the other cottages and was exactly what we needed as a family of 4. We have already booked to return next year.

We had a wonderful week at lower wood farm. Excellent amenities and a lovely cottage. The play barn is fantastic as is the swimming pool. Everything very clean and tidy.

It was a well equipped cottage, particularly in the kitchen. Plenty of towels and comfortable beds. The playbarn was excellent and the pool was lovely too. It was great to have some pool equipment to use there (floats, noodles etc). The only minor addition which could have improved it would have been more towel rails in the bedrooms/bathroom.

Lovely comfy cottage with great facilities for families. Really well equipped play barn, outside toys and great indoor swimming pool.
Upon arrival were greeted by a lovely afternoon tea, nice touch.
Location is brill, lots of thing's to do near by.
Only downside is countryside setting not good if you need WiFi but this is being upgraded ATM.
Will definitely return!

A superb place for a family with children ages 2, 7 & 9. Pool was lovely, play barn and children's play area were the perfect entertainment on rainy days or after a day out. The owner had thought of everything and was very helpful. Thank you Lowerwood Farm!!

We really enjoyed our stay at Pipkin cottage , very comfortable and clean accommodation which was ideal for a small family (we stayed as a couple with a 3 year old ). The facilities were also good and our son loved the playroom which had so many toys he couldn't get bored ! The swimming pool area was lovely too and both times we used it we were the only people there (although we did stay out of school holidays )
There is lots to do in the local area too ..highlights for us were hiring a boat on the broads , dinosaur land (about 1 hr away ) and Horsey beach where we saw the seals .

A perfect place to relax with everything you could need.
Everything so clean, spacious and plenty of sports and games to enjoy.
Ideal for anyone who likes the Countryside but only a few miles from Great Yarmouth.

A great stay; thank you! We'd love to come back soon.
Bonus extras included Ronnie and Woody, while local highlights included Winterton, its cafe and Thrigby Hall.
Some previous guests had clearly thought Thrigby to be a bit 'tired' - but we couldn't have enjoyed it more!

As grandparents, this made an excellent place to gather all the extended family together. We rented Pipkin, Russet and Bramley and they were all excellent. The Games Barn and Swimming Pool were both clean, warm and well equipped. It was a bonus to find bikes there but some of them could have done with some attention.

We had a great week in Pipkin Cottage with our 3 year old. The cottage was very comfortable with everything provided and the facilities of the complex are excellent. We used the pool, play barn and slide/swings every day. Jill was very helpful and runs a tight ship so you always feel assured help is at hand if required. The location is wonderful with easy access to beaches and days out to amuse a toddler (such as the superb Bewilderwood). We would not hesitate to return.

didn't actually stay at Pipkin but upgraded to Bramley, due to a damaged bath panel? how many places would have bothered over that, which sums up the whole thing at Lower wood, attention to even the smallest detail, Bramely was lovely, games room a pleasure and the pool an absolute joy.

What a fabulous family break. The cottage was extremely well presented and the Tea and cakes were very welcome after a lpng drive. It is obvious that the owners are passionate about delivering fantastic accomodation with a warm welcome. The indoor pool, play barn (filled with various toys) and outdoor play equipment were enjoyed by the kids. Location was also excellent with easy reach of the Broads and Gt Yarmouth. We will certainly be visiting again!

Really lovely. So well managed and any issues were dealt with swiftly and well.
Only small problem is that many of the battery operated toys were not working, which can be very disappointing for children. Also the toys could do with more regular cleaning.

We had the most wonderful time celebrating our Ruby Wedding Anniversary at Lower
Wood Farm. The grandchildren and all the family loved the pool and the play barn. We had a lunch party with more family coming for the day and the room provided was perfect as was the food provided by the recommended caterer. The three cottages we had were first class with every possible need catered for.
The attention we had from Jill was excellent as was the welcome tea tray on our arrival!
We hope we can come back again for another family get together in the future.

As Grandparents, we booked on the recommendation of our daughter and her husband who had stayed earlier in the year with their two children (2 and 4 Years). On our arrival without any children, we were initially a little bit apprehensive, but this was soon dissipated. The location was really very good (down a longish approach country lane through open fields). We were met and shown our particular cottage, where we unpacked. Looking around, we could see that it had practically everything anyone on holiday could possibly need, all in very good condition - nothing was older than a few months, it appeared. My wife is very keen on swimming, so we inspected the Pool which was better than a lot of the fiurst class hotels that we have stayed at. Summing it up, the facilities were extremely impressive.
The location was close to Caistor and Great Yarmouth, and more importantly, The Broads, where we spent a lovely afternoon being shown around by a very knowledgeable guide, both on land and on water. Around the whole area were various p[laces where you could get a very decent meal quite inexpensively.
We can find nothing in our holiday that would lead to a criticism - a wonderful short break, Both of us were very sorry to be leaving after such a short break, and yes, we would go there again.

We found the cottage very welcoming,comfortable and very clean. The swimming pool was excellent. All the grounds were beautifully kept and the games room well appointed.We enjoyed sitting outside in the courtyard but unfortunately did not have an opportunity to use the barbeque.

We had a wonderful stay at Lower Wood Farm and wish we could have stayed longer in order to enjoy all the facilities. It is a beautiful setting and ideal for young families. We made plenty of use of the swimming pool which was always clean and pleasantly warm. The cottage was cosy, well laid out and very well equipped. We were close to the beautiful sandy beaches and the Norfolk Broads so this was a perfect location for us.
