Guests are free to explore the magnificent, landscaped gardens, indulge themselves in the large 12-person tub and even enjoy a game of tennis on the outdoor court. Hockwold itself is a peaceful village with a pub and a shop, and benefits from being in a location with easy access to explore Norfolk including the Broads, the coast and Norwich. Suffolk is also easy to explore from the central East Anglian location. Head to the largest pine forest in the UK at Thetford just 12 miles away for some incredible walks and outdoor woodland activities such as Segways and Go Ape tree top adventure.

The accommodation has many of its original features. Each room is elegantly decorated to give a contemporary feel. The ground floor consists of a spacious and welcoming kitchen with a high ceiling and giant south-facing sash windows providing a generous amount of natural light with calming views of the stunning walled garden. When it’s time to gather with loved ones, the dining room marries old-world charm with contemporary elegance; with a capacity of 30, the dining area is ideal for small to moderately-sized dinner parties. The lounge is now known as ‘the yellow room’ for its tastefully applied sunny hues. Featuring a 16th-century functional fireplace, it’s the perfect space to relax after a day exploring the area. Then you have the cellar with a soft lantern light, a full bar, and stone infrastructure – where enjoying a drink is transformed into a unique experience. Completing the ground floor is the games room featuring a classic pool table and lots of games to enjoy together. Upstairs, there are nine gorgeous guest bedrooms, and each room has been designed with comfort in mind to ensure you are well-rested. There are four super-king rooms, three large family rooms (one with a super-king and a double, one with a super-king and two singles, and one with a double and two singles), one room with two double beds, and one double room. All bedrooms have the luxury of an en-suite bathroom.

Heading outside, there is a beautiful walled garden, a 12-person hot tub, a sauna and a BBQ area with seating, perfect for dining alfresco on a warm evening. Nestled between the manicured lawns and gardens is a south-facing tennis court.
