Built in 1745, this historic English manor is set in the glorious Norfolk countryside. It is a magnificent estate with grand spaces and luscious grounds, perfect for an exclusive country retreat with your closest family and friends. The Grade II listed building is bursting with character, from the traditional wooden beams and four-poster beds to the luxurious roll top baths and oil paintings. You could spend hours wandering the house and admiring the antiques, before gathering around the open fire for a cosy evening, or challenging your loved ones to a game of billiards. There are thirty acres of private parkland to ramble through, with a lawned garden to picnic on and a terrace with a barbecue for alfresco feasting. You can also head out to visit the remarkable Sandringham Estate, or the RSPB's Snettisham Nature Reserve, both of which are just a 10 minute drive away.
