Join friends and family for a memorable getaway in this spacious period property in the village of Methwold. The property is nestled within the beautiful Norfolk countryside, and you’ll find plenty of scenic walking and cycling routes to explore in the immediate area. Nearby family days out include the Sandringham Estate (24 miles) and Thetford Forest (5 miles). In the evenings, enjoy a movie night in one of the two lounge areas, or share a family BBQ on the patio.

The detached Georgian home boasts high ceilings, large windows, and a myriad of characterful original features. The property has been beautifully decorated and styled, with statement furniture and a bold colour palette. Enter the holiday retreat into the impressive hallway, featuring a striking, tiled floor and winding staircase. Leave muddy boots here, before moving through to one of two fabulous reception rooms, where you’ll find an array of comfortable seating arranged around an ornamental fireplace and a Smart TV. The stylish kitchen has everything needed to cater for a large group, along with a breakfast bar for informal gatherings. There is also an AGA here that’s available for use on request. For special occasions, come together in the fabulous dining room, where a table for 12 awaits. Rounding off the ground floor is a handy utility room. Upstairs, discover five stunning bedrooms (including a bunk bedroom), all with their own, unique styling to complement the property’s original features. Completing this floor is a sleek shower room and the family bathroom with an indulgent, free-standing bath. Outside, bask in the sunshine in the enclosed garden, sipping a glass of wine on the patio or sharing a BBQ. There is also a large lawn where children and dogs can play. The property has private parking for four cars.

The attractive town of Bury St Edmunds (22 miles) is known for its stunning public parks, gardens, and open spaces.

We loved our stay at Red House. It was perfect for 3 generations of our family to spend the week together. The beds were all very comfy and the bedrooms very spacious. The house itself was great with lots of space and fabulous hiding places for hide and seek. We would definitely return again. The area was great with lots to do too.
