Located 4 miles from the historic town of King’s Lynn – and 3 from an excellent wildlife reserve where you can go on safari – this charming wooden holiday home is ideal for exploring Norfolk’s rural and urban offerings. It’s located within a peaceful complex and surrounded by trees, with an on-site gym and café for you to use. With space for four guests, this attractive bungalow works well for a family trip, or perhaps two couples keen for a restorative break in a tranquil sylvan setting.
This detached accommodation is crafted from wood for an alpine atmosphere. The inside is decorated in cool greys and blues, and with its large, open-plan living area, creates a welcoming place to relax with loved ones. In the modern kitchen, cook up yummy breakfasts and dinners, perhaps using local products purchased at Downham Market market (9.5 miles; Fridays and Saturdays). The adjacent dining space comfortably accommodates all guests for a communal meal. At the end of a jam-packed day exploring, unwind in the spacious lounge, which is fitted with comfortable seating and a Smart TV for streaming your favourite series. The furnished and sheltered patio, accessed via sliding French doors, is an idyllic spot for reading and chatting surrounded by nature. Children can play on the grass outside while you sip a cold drink on the sunny patio, basking in your peaceful surroundings.
At Watatunga Wildlife Reserve, you’ll have a great time spotting rare deer, waterbuck and water buffalo, while at Sandringham (10 miles), walk in the footsteps of several generations of British monarchs and wander through 60 acres of formal gardens. If you’re keen for day out by the sea, make the 18-mile journey to Hunstanton to experience its captivating Victorian architecture, lively promenade and iconic striped cliffs. Its sandy beach is a wonderful spot for a picnic or a bag of vinegary chips with the wind in your hair.
