Highgrove

Highgrove sits in open countryside south of Norwich, surrounded by farmland and woodland typical of the Norfolk-Suffolk border. The village location keeps you away from the noise but within reach of local attractions: Diss market town is 13 minutes' drive, the Norfolk Broads lie an hour or so north, and the Suffolk Heritage Coast – Southwold, Walberswick, Aldeburgh – is equally accessible.

The entire property is yours alone, arranged on a single level for convenience. Three bedrooms accommodate six: a kingsize, two singles, and bunks. There is one bathroom with a walk-in shower, plus a separate toilet. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, with an electric oven, hob, dishwasher and washing machine. A living room has a wood burner and Freeview television. Out back, the garden includes a private hot tub for four and a sitting area with a barbecue. Essentials are covered – electricity, heating, wi-fi, bed linen, towels – and wood for the burner is complimentary. Parking for four cars and a bike store are on site.

This suits families or groups wanting a rural base for exploring Norfolk and Suffolk, or simply a quiet getaway. One well-behaved pet stays free. Smoking is not permitted indoors.
