  • Stunning folly converted into a fabulous holiday home in the peaceful village of Ingoldisthorpe
  • Sit out in the fantastic hot tub to unwind and enjoy walks among the picturesque grounds
  • Just 3 miles from the Royal estate at Sandringham and 4 miles from the beach at Snettisham
Property code: OC-92177

A delightful home with a quirky exterior, exquisite decor throughout and its own private hot tub, this wonderful property is ideal for a memorable group holiday with your doggo. It’s located in the picturesque village of Ingoldisthorpe and surrounded by rolling hills, scenic walks and pretty villages. With space for up to nine guests over its four bedrooms, this unusual holiday home is ideal for a multigenerational family trip or holiday among friends, with one canine guest also welcome.

Step into this characterful property and settle down in the elegant lounge, a welcoming space with ample seating, a Smart TV/DVD player for film nights and a rug for your pet to stretch out on. The well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen comes complete with a spacious dining table that comfortably seats nine guests – perfect for sharing convivial meals. As you explore, look out for extra-special touches such as a roll-top bath in the master bedroom, unique pieces of art and peaceful garden views. Outside, the beautiful grounds are ripe for exploration by two-legged and four-legged guests. Garden furniture is in place for al fresco dining, allowing you to lap up the scenic woodland views while enjoying your meal. For ultimate relaxation, rest weary limbs in the six-person hot tub while your pet finds a shady spot for a nap.

Locally, take your pet for walks in the nearby Snettisham Woods (2 miles), and sniff out the heavenly scents at Norfolk Lavender (3.5 miles) where your faithful friend can accompany you on a lead. If she’s making eyes at you for a beach trip, try Snettisham Beach (4 miles) for dog walks – though you’ll need to keep her on a lead during bird nesting season (summer). Hunstanton South Beach (6 miles) has large restriction-free stretches that are fantastic for off-lead adventures.

Really pleased with our stay, beautiful property and a big interesting garden to explore. Kitchen was well equipped and easy to use, beds and sofa were very comfortable, heating kept us warm despite the cold outside. Lots of books available to read, some childrens toys, and a hot tub to enjoy.

The Folly was quirky. Old but beautiful with lots of character. It was comfortable and warm. Plenty of hot water for everyone. The grounds are beautiful and perfect for the children to play. The trampoline was popular. The goal and tree swings were fun. We would certainly return and recommend to our friends .

We absolutely loved staying at The Folly - quirky with truly magical grounds and an atmosphere of faded, but homely grandeur throughout. Our stay was a fantastic way to celebrate big birthdays with the whole family. The hot tub was a joy - irrespective of the weather, and there is plenty of outdoor space to explore and enjoy. Just a perfect place tRead moreo relax. Hide

Lovely property in nice location. Could do with updating and a good clean. Bedding and towels all clean. We enjoyed our time there though, lovely walks and good food at a local pub.

We loved our weekend. The Hot Tub was a great plus for us and we used it more than once a day while we were at The Folly. Special note about the very comfortable beds, overall it was perfect.

delightful setting, it took a little longer to get to the beach than I thought, mainly far more traffic but we live in a quiet area at home so nothing misleading in the marketing.
