A first-floor apartment in a two-storey barn surrounded by woodlands and open countryside, within 16 miles of both Norwich and the North Norfolk Coast. Featuring an open-plan living area, an enclosed garden and access to a private swimming pool on the ground floor, this rural hideaway is perfect for a couple seeking a break in the countryside.

This attractive and contemporary apartment has been finished to a high standard, with creative use of space throughout. The cosy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner offers a comfortable place to relax, create and enjoy romantic meals, cosy up in front of the smart TV and plan the following day’s adventures. The spacious double bedroom, like the lounge/kitchen/diner, is populated by skylights, affording it a soothing ambience throughout the day. The nearby bathroom also doubles as a utility room, underlining the apartment’s functional credentials. The large indoor swimming pool on the ground floor is yours to enjoy exclusively for two hours a day, while outside, the enclosed lawned garden with a decked area can host everything from BBQ suppers to soaks in the hot tub and sunset cocktails.

Inglworth (1 mile) sits within a conservation area belonging to the Blickling Hall Estate and there are umpteen footpaths and trails leading around Blickling Lake and the River Bure via attractive meadows and woodland. The ancient market town of Aylsham awaits 2.5 miles from the lodge. For a day by the sea, Cromer and Sheringham (within 13 miles) are home to an attractive coastline and bustling town centres. The historic streets of Norwich (16 miles) offer a wonderful range of shops, pubs and cultural attractions.

We cannot recommend Skipjack highly enough. Having the use of your own pool twice a day and a private garden with a hot tub are massive selling points. The property is excellently equipped and there is more storage space than a whole family would need. We swam every day and it was an excellent way to start a morning. Despite the wonderful weather, Read moreit was always cool indoors. The venue is ideally situated to explore the wonderful Norfolk countryside and coast. We went to Cromer, Great Yarmouth, Sheringham and Wells-Next-the-Sea which were all excellent. The nearby town of Aylsham has everything you'd need and there are many very good eateries within a short distance. One of the best holidays we've ever had. Who needs abroad! Hide

The cleanliness got a 4 because there was coco pop found under the table and crumbs at the back of the worktop and clumps of dust in the bathroom. Comfort got a 4 because the mattress was so hard it hurt both myself and my husbands back. Otherwise it would have been a 5* all the way. Would definitely love to go back.
