The main house and adjacent old coach house accommodation are just a few miles from the main A.47 but far enough that you are surrounded totally by countryside with just the Little Abbey Farm next door where we purchased our eggs and honey amongst other things.

Both Ketlam View and the Old Coach House are well equipped and full of character. The amenities are perfect for adults and kids alike and the large indoor pool and sauna we're a real treat to enjoy on site. The gardens are also great fun for the children while the grown ups can sit and enjoy a tea or coffee outside..or something stronger. All in all a lovely peaceful week in beautiful countryside away from it all. Swaffham is about 10 mins along the A.47 and is well worth a visit. Hide

A great property for large family holidays. The younger adults in our group stayed in the coach house where they were able to have gluten.

The dining table in the main house was a great size where we all ate dinner together. The lounge was also big enough for us all in the evening to play games. Having the second sittingroom in the main house was also handy for those in the family to play guitars and sing. The kitchen was a really good size for several people to prep and cook for the 11 of us and very well equipped. Having a separate utility room to keep all the dog bowls, dog food, coats and boots, etc was a real bonus, especially as the weather wasn't great and we could clean up there before entering the house. Having the games room and pool was really fun, especially as I said the weather wasn't great. Our greyhound absolutely loved the massive garden which was secure all around and although she could have jumped the picket fence between the two properties if she wanted, she didnt. Great place for large families and pets. Hide
