Extra Amenities

Hidden away in a lovely, quiet setting and just packed with history, magical Honey Pots really does offer something special to discerning guests. Originally built in 1750 to house farm workers, this was originally two houses and was last occupied in 1941. The current owners have lovingly renovated it using reclaimed materials wherever they can, including beams that date back to the 1400s and tiles from the original cottage. Boasting two wood burners, a spacious bespoke kitchen, handmade doors and exposed brick and stone feature walls, you are sure to fall in love with this really unique cottage.

The kitchen is very well equipped and has an Aga along with two separate electric ovens with grills, induction hob and also boasts a fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. In fact the cottage, as a whole, really does have everything you need for a lovely holiday. Enjoy a meal in the formal dining room, a glass of wine by the wood burner or in the peaceful garden, or sit and read quietly in the porch/sun room. You will often see wildlife around Honey Pots including Breckland hares, pheasants, partridges, deer and multiple bird species.

If you can tear yourself away, you will find much to enjoy with walks on your doorstep with Thetford Forest High and Go Ape close by. Norfolk has a wealth of history, and there are numerous National Trust properties to visit, too. For a change of pace, you can be in Bury St Edmunds (with its famous abbey), Ely (with its magnificent cathedral), or Norwich (with its Norman castle) in less than 45 minutes. The historic market town of Swaffham is just 7 miles away. Shop, pub and restaurant 4 mile
