Lovely Holkham Holiday Retreat

A superb choice for a solo adventure or a couple's getaway, this handcrafted shepherd's hut is set on the iconic Holkham Estate, ready for you to fill your days with walking, cycling, rowing, picnicking and uncovering local history. For long strolls on golden sands (followed by a hot drink in a cafe), Holkham Beach is less than 1 mile away – nestle into one of the hides and look out for the rare species that visit. In Wells-next-the-Sea (2 miles) Burnham Market (4 miles) and Holt (13 miles), you can indulge in some retail therapy and explore enticing pubs, cafes and restaurants. The stately homes of Houghton Hall, Felbrigg, and Blickling Hall are all within 23 miles. For something a little different, book a boat trip from Morston Quay (8.5 miles) to see the nation's largest colony of grey seals at Blakeney Point.

Built to a larger-than-usual size, the hut features eco insulation and central heating for cosy warmth throughout the year. Its high-quality interior has been designed to reflect the natural world outside, with soft colours and delightful textures creating a peaceful atmosphere. Climb the steps to the front door to reveal a studio-style living space for cooking, dining, lounging and sleeping. Snuggle into the comfortable sofa after a day exploring the area – if you want to catch up on a favourite box set, there's even a Smart TV. Whip up hearty breakfasts and tasty suppers in the spacious kitchen area, which boasts slate worktops and a butler's sink. The dining space is a solid-oak breakfast bar with two stools, with a window overlooking the pretty meadow. When bedtime beckons, the king-size bed is perfectly cosy and even has a dog den hidden underneath for your four-legged friends. Refreshing hot showers are available any time in the separate shower room.

One of four handsome huts set within beautiful landscaping; this relaxing escape has a private patio area surrounded by hedges and fencing for privacy. Make the most of the BBQ provided to grill delicious treats, perhaps using local produce picked up on your travels. You'll also have the benefit of off-road parking for one car in the car park at The Victoria, just a few metres away.
