Felbrigg Lodge is a real asset to Norfolk, accommodation-wise. A bona-fide Norfolk Country hotel, it is a marriage of diversity, with one overriding theme of fabulousness.
Originally the hunting lodge and fire station to nearby Felbrigg Hall (and once the country home of Brian Blessed and his wife), Felbrigg Lodge Hotel is positioned in over seven acres of mature trees and landscaped gardens. Combine this fabulous rural setting with luxurious, boutique styling and you have yourself a very special country retreat.
In addition to the 7 ‘rooms’ (more appropriately referred to as suites, a cottage and a pavilion – should give you some appreciation of their size), you can also enjoy The Nest – a stunning self-catering Holiday Cottage that sleeps up to 6 people.
Warm but contemporary styling throughout, the spacious Cottage features all you need for a wonderful stay, including
- a fully fitted kitchen with double oven, fridge freezer (with icemaker), dishwasher,
- an open-plan lounge/dining room with ample seating for 6 people
- Sky TV with Sky Sports among many other channels
- washing machine and tumble dryer
- Master bedroom with large en-suite shower room
- 2 x twin bedrooms
- Family bathroom with double sink, shower and bath
The Cottage stands in mature, landscaped grounds, with plenty of opportunity for al-fresco breakfasts on warmer days. If you want a break from cooking yourself, The Ivy Restaurant is only a short stroll away. Here you are welcome to hearty Lodge Breakfasts, Traditional Afternoon Teas and delicious, home-cooked evening meals.
Perhaps you fancy a refreshing dip before breakfast each day or a romantic sunset swim? Felbrigg Lodge has its own 12m private indoor-heated swimming pool, which as guests at The Nest, you are welcome to use.
With its gorgeous far-from-the-madding-crowd situation, Felbrigg Lodge is the ultimate luxury stay. The area is a haven for birdwatchers and due to so little light pollution, on a clear night you will see millions of stars. Finally, Felbrigg Lodge is wonderful in that, though you’ll find pretty much everything you need for an amazing escape there within its grounds, you’re also on the doorstep to all the charms of the North Norfolk Coast or the historical destination City of Norwich.
