An elegant and stately former rectory that everyone’s sure to have a ball at, embark on countryside adventures at this grand home-from-home. The property sleeps up to ten guests and welcomes up to two dogs, so no one needs be left behind. It’s an ideal retreat for a family gathering or special celebration set within spectacular grounds overlooking open countryside.
This retreat presents an abundance of space across the ground floor, giving you the option to gather with the group and socialise en masse or lose yourself in a quiet corner if it all gets a bit much. The pretty sitting room is airy and offers access to the amazing grounds via patio doors. Cosy up in the snug and let sleeping dogs lie in front of the wood burner, or head to the modern kitchen with informal dining space to rustle up a snack. In the formal dining room, you’ll also find a working piano, so you can get your hound dog’s howling! Two staircases lead up to the five spacious bedrooms made up of a super-king with an en-suite that can reconfigure as a twin, a twin room, another king (that can also become a twin), a double bedroom with en-suite, and a bunk room. There are two delightful bathrooms too. The house is set within vast mature gardens and enveloped by open countryside beyond. On a chilly evening, you can all gather around the fire pit to toast marshmallows.
This grand property sits on the edge of Thurlton, within a large plot and is accessed via a tree-lined drive, yet you can reach the local pub and village shop within 0.2 miles. More dog-friendly establishments can be found in Reedham (4 miles) which sits within the Norfolk Broads, or explore the beautiful Norfolk Coast with Lowestoft 12 miles away and the popular resort town of Great Yarmouth just 11 miles away.
