Plan a relaxed getaway with family or friends at this beautifully presented Norfolk holiday home. The five-bedroom dwelling is in the friendly village of Blofield, perfectly placed between the vibrant city of Norwich (7.5 miles) and the peaceful Norfolk Broads (3 miles). Everything you need day to day is within 0.5 miles – a cosy pub, a handy shop, a welcoming coffee spot and a farm shop with its own restaurant. There’s a private pool and hot tub you can hire just across the road and crazy golf 1 mile away.
The heart of this retreat is the bright, L-shaped kitchen/diner, which has all the appliances you need plus a central island and big dining table. The elegant lounge – complete with cocktail bar – is lovely for cosy evenings together. Kids and teens will no doubt gravitate to the games room, with table football, a games table and classic board games. Across the two floors are five stylish bedrooms: a ground-floor double with Jack and Jill en-suite, a luxurious super-king-size with a bed and Jacuzzi-style bath, plus a mix of doubles, twin and triple rooms. Outside, relax in the south-facing garden, which includes a furnished patio for al fresco meals and a charcoal BBQ for sizzling up a storm. A six-person hot tub positioned under a covered veranda is a luxury feature. Younger guests will love the play area with swings, slides and a trampoline. You’ll have private parking for three cars.
Nearby, Strumpshaw Fen (3 miles) is a nature lover’s dream with birdwatching spots, cycling and waterside walks, or you can hire a boat to experience the Broads from the water. Great Yarmouth offers classic seaside fun (13 miles) with its golden sands, arcades and lively promenade. The city of Norwich has a completely different vibe – spend a day wandering through medieval streets lined with independent shops and visit the stunning cathedral.
