Property information

Tucked in the heart of the Norfolk Brecks, Vicarage House & Pool House is a luxury eleven-bed property - it's very 'Pride and Prejudice', although the Bennets wouldn’t have got to splash around in a heated outdoor pool! A 6 acre slice of Norfolk envelopes this holiday home with a huge front lawn & magnificent landscaped gardens. Take advantage of the fantastic facilities including a heated outdoor pool (1 Apr-30 Oct) & private hard tennis court, as well as football, badminton, croquet & boules. A vast games room is situated in the Pool House, with table tennis, sofas, a TV/DVD player & other games. Life is easy here. Vicarage House sleeps 9 in the main house, with room for a further 6 in the Pool House. The spacious interiors provide an ideal setting for families & groups of friends, whether for a special celebration or just for a wonderful holiday. Celebrate together in the large dining room or an after meal get-together in the sumptuous drawing room. And, if the weather’s kind, you can spill out onto one of four terraces wrapped around the property. With rattan furniture & two BBQs, you can capture the sunshine any time of the day or catch a classic Norfolk sunset.

Neighbourhood information
