Hay Hill House

This spacious four-bedroom home in central Norfolk sits in a leafy rural spot with soothing valley views. You’ll have lovely market towns like Dereham (3 miles), Fakenham (11 miles) and Swaffham (12 miles) nearby – fab for shopping and absorbing the local atmosphere – and the promise of seaside trips on the North Norfolk Coast (21 miles). Just 1. The space 5 miles away, Gressenhall Farm & Workhouse provides a fascinating glimpse into rural Norfolk’s past, complete with a working farm (open seasonally). Families will love taking children to ROARR! Dinosaur Adventure (12.5 miles), or, for a city escape, the cathedral city of Norwich (21 miles) is within easy reach. If you fancy venturing further, the stunning waterways of the Norfolk Broads (30 miles) make for a fantastic day trip. For an outing by the sea, Burnham Overy Staithe (21.5 miles) has breathtaking views and an unspoilt beach, reached via a scenic stretch of the Norfolk Coast Path.  If you’re feeling more energetic, visit High Lodge, Thetford, (29 miles), with an abundance of activities. Banham Zoo is only 25 miles, and Pensthorpe, only 12 miles away, here you can explore magical gardens, and visit one of our region’s biggest and best outdoor adventure areas. Combining traditional red brick with a smart renovation, this luxury home beautifully combines old and new. The open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining area is a showstopper with super dark blue (Blakeney Channel) units and full-length bi-fold doors that flood the space with light. In summer, you’ll have the perfect flow between indoors and out – fab for gatherings that go late into the evening. One of the four bedrooms is located downstairs for easy accessibility – a super-king-size zip-and-link (can be made into twins on request at time of booking) with an en-suite and WC – while a separate WC is on hand for everyone to use during the day. Head upstairs to find three more bedrooms; a super-king-size master suite with a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room, a twin with zip-and-link beds (which can be made up as a super-king-size on request at time of booking), and another twin room. Each bedroom has breathtaking garden and valley views, with deer and buzzards often making an appearance. Air conditioning in the three upstairs rooms keeps things cool when the mercury rises. A family bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC complete the upstairs space. The huge bi-fold lounge doors open onto a large, enclosed garden and patio area with high quality rattan furniture, including an 8 seater round top dining table – just the thing for that morning coffee brewed in the Nespresso machine and al fresco dining.  Private parking for 3 or 4 cars. 4 bedrooms – 1 ground floor super-king-size zip-and-link (which can be made into twin beds on request), 1 en-suite super-king-size, 1 twin zip-and-link (which can be made into a super-king-size on request), 1 twin 3 bathrooms – 1 family bathroom with shower over bath and WC, 1 ground-floor en-suite shower room with WC, 1 shower room with WC, 1 separate WC Electric oven and induction hob, Quooker boiling water tap, microwave, Nespresso coffee machine (handful of complimentary pods included), fridge/freezer, dishwasher Utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer Highchair available Welcome pack Smart TV in lounge, air conditioning in 3 upstairs bedrooms Enclosed garden with outdoor furniture Secure bike storage in an outside shed Private parking for 3 to 4 cars Strictly no EV charging permitted at this property Shop and pub 1 mile This property can be booked alongside Old School House (O30817) sleeping a further 8 guests.
