Rookery Meadow

Ik was blij met: Stayed 3 nights at the Little Island Retreat for a little break to get away from everything. What a place, literally cannot fault anything. You have the retreat and the entire lake to yourself, with Shane and Wayne the lovely ducks to keep you company. You're a field away from the main house so you really do feel totally on your own. We were blessed with sunny weather and it was just so quiet, relaxing and tranquil. We were also allowed to take our kayaks on the lake. The lodge itself is very comfortable with everything you need for cooking on the BBQ and sitting outside on the decking of an evening (blankets, mozzy traps, plates/pans/cutlery), lanterns, a reservoir with plenty of drinking water and a novel compost toilet. 3 minutes walk across the field takes you to the farmyard where you have you're own bathroom/washing up room with electric and hot water etc. We also had a great time playing ping pong and darts in the games room. We will miss Shane and Wayne welcoming us of a morning and chilling out with us in the evenings!

Ik was niet zo blij met: There is nothing to dislike about this place

Ik was blij met: We couldn’t have asked for a better stay at Rob’s little island retreat! We were incredibly lucky with the weather so were able to make full use of the new jetty Rob had built prior to our stay. A highlight for us definitely included the friendly pair of ducks (Shayne and Wayne) whom Rob warned us were sure to steal our hearts! The setting is pure paradise as you are truly immersed in the gorgeous east Anglian countryside surrounded by ancient oak trees, you will be sure to not want to leave after a taste of this little slice of heaven!

Ik was blij met: Amazing place for solitude. No wifi. No TV. Comfortable bed and views with a view. Shane and Wayne the 2 ducks will keep you entertained! Nothing is too much trouble and Rob is close by.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Not much to add apart from wet footwear as the grass was very wet due to the rain and dew the next morning. We should have remembered our wellies. The walk to the Shower block was a bit further than we thought but it's all fresh air so just go prepared with footwear.

Ik was blij met: Beautiful cabin with good amount of blankets and comfy seats for outside. Also well stocked cooking utensils for the bbq. The location is gorgeous and very secluded, we didn’t see anyone apart from the two friendly ducks Shayne and Wayne. The utility room by where you park your car is perfect to use for a morning shower, stocking things in the fridge or filling up the cool box that’s provided for a day out. Would be a great idea to bring a bike for cycling around the country roads or going to the nearby villages for a drink at the pub. The yoga session that was done with Gem was also brilliant, my girlfriend found her so knowledgeable and lovely to be around. Seeing the 2 horses and sheep in the paddock nearby was also nice! Overall brilliant stay and well worth it. Thank you Rob and Gem.
