Ted's Place, AYLSHAM

Rated 5/50 by Grace M on 5th October 2019

"We stayed here for two nights and can't fault it. Beautiful cottage, very clean and a very relaxed and cosy place. The step at the front door is a little high and think could maybe add another toilet in the cottage, other than that is a beautiful place. Perfect for the relaxing town of Aylsham. Great walking distance to the town and all round a lovely place. Will definitely be returning in the future."

"Ted's Place is an absolute delight. It has everything you need from the i-pod docking station in the lounge to the 50s style american fridge freezer in the kitchen and the teddy waiting for you in the bedroom. If you need it, it will be there. This is the first holiday where we have not had to go out and buy a potato peeler or a pair or scissors or some small item that always seems to be missing. The lounge is spacious but yet feels cosy. There is ample reading material covering the local area, plus books and games to keep you entertained. The TV picture is crystal clear, the seating comfy and the flowers on the windowsill a delightful touch. The kitchen has everything you need, and plenty you won't need too. We were welcomed with a bottle of sparkling wine in the fridge and the cupboards house all those condiments you suddenly realise you need but forgot to bring with you. There is plenty of tea and coffee and milk to get you through the unpacking. The bedrooms are lovely and the beds extremely comfy. The quilts were lovely and warm for the cooler nights and the pillows had plenty of 'squash' in them as my youngest daughter noted. The bathroom is just luxury, with the freestanding claw footed bath. Do find the bath mat though otherwise you'll be sliding down and shuffling back for the duration. Relaxing after a long day, with bubbles in the wine and water was pure decadence but delightful. Our dog loved the garden which was easily accessible and looked gorgeous with the autumnal turn of leaves and the glistening red crab apples. I really couldn't fault this lovely place, except that the front step was little high and my arthritic knees did not approve. Having a couple shoves on the bottom got me through the door, but I found it most easily remedied by going through the back door after the first couple of ungainly attempts. Alysham itself is a beautiful town and only a two minute walk from the cottage. The pace is slow and it feels almost like stepping back in time. How wonderful to visit a butcher and a baker and greengrocer for our produce rather than the supermarkets. There is also a recreational ground within a ten minute walk in the opposite direction to the town. Great for our Sheltie who preferred the wide open space. We never had a problem with parking either, always finding a space further along the lane. Would we go back? Absolutely. Would we recommed it? Without a doubt."

"We have just spent the most relaxing five days at Ted's Place Aylsham, Norfolk. All so lovely I didn't want to go home! The house absolutely immaculate, comfortable, and well equipped. The owner so helpful, and provides all those very special details ie flowers etc to make you feel so special. Excellent location. You can walk to the shops, and dine at the Black Boys an excellent pub without having to get in the car! Also convenient to North Norfolk Coast, Norfolk Broads, and Norwich. We will certainly return. A definite 5 star."

"Cant fault the house in any way. Clean, comfortable, lovely furnishings etc. V friendly and helpful owner. Ideal base for holiday. Walking distance to amenities and many others a short drive away.

"Xx 5 star xx A wonderful home from home, with everything you could ask for, well presented, clean and tidy, lovely large garden, comfy beds, fully stocked kitchen, high chair, cot, even dog bowls! The property is on a quiet lane close to the centre of this small town, with everything you need, tesco, co-op, pubs, cafe's, chocolate shop, lovely walks for the dog, and a short drive to lovely towns like Holt, beaches or into Norwich (great shopping for the wife!) The only two things people my have issues with is the limited parking on the lane at the front, and the garden is accessed via a communal path (gates were always shut! And both neighbours are lovely). Would we recommend to friends? - absolutely!"
