About this property

Diss 5.3 miles. Enjoying a central position within South Norfolk, just a few miles away from the market town of Diss, is this well-presented lodge resting within a secluded position on the grounds of the owners property, Someplace Else. This romantic retreat is ideally placed for a couple seeking to explore the Norfolk Broads, the Thetford Forest Park or head to the glorious coastline. Soak up the countryside setting before stepping into the open-plan living room, where you will be delighted to find all the essentials that you could possibly need during a week-long break. Here, you will find a well-equipped kitchen complete with all the essentials to rustle up a home-cooked meal that can be enjoyed at the dining table. After dinner, look forward to curling up on the leather sofa to plan the days ahead whilst the woodburning stove fills the room with a gentle warmth during those chilly winter months. The interior is completed by a spacious double bedroom, which benefits from ample storage to house your personal belongings, a TV for those relaxing evenings in and a window that offers delightful views for you to wake up to each morning. To the outside you will find a decked area, where you can dip into a bubbling hot tub to soak up the surroundings and catch the final glimpses of sunshine during a balmy afternoon. If you can tear yourself away from this romantic retreat, a short walk will bring you to the local pub where you can enjoy a delicious evening meal. Alternatively, venture slightly further afield to the town of Diss where you will find a superb selection of restaurants, pubs, cafes and delis, as well as a selection of independent shops for picking the essentials. To keep you busy whilst staying here, there's a farmers market at the local village hall on the 4th Saturday of each month, or head to Bressingham Steam and Gardens, wander the endearing Diss Mere or catch a play at the impressive Corn Hall. Other attractions include the Banham Zoo which is home to over 2000 animals or enjoy a walk upon the Knettishall Heath.

    Great to use as a base to explore. Hot tub was great, ready and waiting at the end of the day. Maintained by Eugene on a daily basis. Nothing better than sat in the hot tub watching the wildlife.

  • Michael

    We had a wonderful time, enjoying some wildlife and the hot tub. Good location, short drive to Diss and Thetford. Good food at the local pub 5 minute walk up the road. Would highly recommend.

    Beautiful setting, that is peaceful and private. Very welcoming hosts, with the extras such as tea bags and biscuits fully appreciated. Me and my husband thoroughly enjoyed staying here, finding watching the wildlife from the hot tub so peaceful. Lodge is clean and comfortable, with bedding and towels smelling amazing! Fully equipped kitchen, with everything we could need. And if there was something else, we were fully aware hosts would help! Hope to be back soon thank you!
