    A lovely place. The outside was as good as the inside. Loved the garden on a night when lit up and the hot tub. The bed was really comfy and the shower was great. The place was spotless. We didn’t really cook as we had lots of family staying...

    The place was lovely and clean, we paid extra for the hot tub which was lovely. Used the bbq, which was also great. Lovely outdoor seating area.

    We loved the coziness of Piano Forte. The hosts couldn't have been more helpful! Hot Tub was lovely and warm on arrival. Perfect place for a relaxing cozy long weekend away! We will be back, hopefully in 2025 and most likely will try their other...

Company information

We love building ! - we love quirky places !! We have built and lovingly renovated perfect self contained little units just for your pleasure !! We enjoy sharing these little homes with you ! Enjoy our creations whilst I hunt the local countryside for my next building project !!

Property information

The village is quintessentially English ! Small church - Village green - a handful of houses - more horses than people - very quiet. This little hut feels like 'home from home'. It is modern yet comfortable. Do not forget to ask us for extra bedding if you have more than a couple in your party. There is space to pitch a tent if you have teenagers who want their own space - we can offer the ground sheet mats and blow up bed - just let us know. The dining area comfortably seats a couple for a romantic evening meal or extra chairs can be provided if the party is larger. The bathroom has plenty of hot water and a fully tiled wet room - giving you extra space ! The bed is a normal size double bed with feather duvet and pillows. If you need a polyester pillow please bring your favourite from home. The outside area has chairs for outside dining and a smoking shelter. Please make sure that you smoke outside in the shelter and all your butts are removed and taken with you when you leave. Its a bit disgusting to ask my cleaners to clear up after smokers and my next guests do not want to find soggy butts in the garden !!! Thank you for your co operation with this. We do like a quirky garden which we hope you will enjoy but all areas can be very slippery when wet and some surfaces are very uneven. Please take care. There is a hot tub too !!! - an additional fee is payable separately - please enquire for details. I hope that all sounds very enticing !

Neighbourhood information

It is a small village and no pub or shop for 4 miles. please make sure to bring some provisions with you ! Our local attraction is Knettishall Heath - a beautiful walk with wild ponies roaming free. It is about a 20 minute walk to the heath through a canopied country road. Thetford forest is - of course - beautiful with plenty of walking. Go Ape if you are feeling particularly fit !! Thetford town is only about 2 miles from the village where you can pick up supplies. Bury St Edmunds is our local market town - full of independent shops, theatre and cinema. Norwich is our local city with 'everything' that you would want !! Everything ! All the Norfolk coast - beautiful - is about a one hour drive in any direction. We have all the usual chain restaurants in Bury St Edmunds and plenty of local take-aways and fish and chips in local Thetford. What else can I say - you need to come and see us !
