Holkham Estate is one of the most striking and popular stately homes on the North Norfolk Coast, and for good reason. Its rich history and impressive grounds blow away all that come to see it. So, what if we told you that you and your significant other could escape here for a truly magical and private getaway? This home sits on the southern edge of the estate and boasts effortless elegance, intimate living, and breathtaking landscapes. Originally built in 1847, this lodge is a beautiful example of the revivalist architectural styles that were so popular in the 19th Century. That means gazing out into the parkland through feature windows that truly set the tone for this historic home. Step outside and soak up the warm sun in the walled garden before heading out to explore the area. Miles of nature trails and cycle tracks await you, while bike hire is also available. Holkham has one of Norfolk’s most popular beaches and thanks to your proximity to it, you won’t even have to fight for a parking spot.
