Perfect for cooking up a storm after a days exploring, the kitchen is home to a four hob cooker grill, sink and work top space. The bench seating area is great for chilling with a book, or you can use it as a bed for a little one. Tucked away above the cab is a king-size bed, and under is another tucked away small bed which is suitable for a small adult or child. There is a private shower unit and separate compost WC just a few steps away from the rear door of the horse box, both of which boast sky views. To the front of the horsebox is a lovely seating area with a firepit. Douglas is powered completely by the Norfolk sun! The rays are taken and stored in the battery bank and then recycled around the site for the lighting options, USB charging and pumping water.

There is so much to do on your doorstep, with footpaths and cycle routes. There is a restaurant/deli in the village which is in walking distance called The Lemon and Rosemary Yard. Very close is Reepham, a beautiful market town with 18th century houses and a market place, which is surrounded by stunning countryside between the Wensum and Bure Valleys. While you are ambling around, be sure to pop in to The Dial House, a special place for breakfasts, lunches and afternoon teas. Aylsham is another traditional unspoilt market town. Aylsham's market place, also surrounded by fine 18th century houses, reflects the town’s prosperity from the cloth trade from that era. Famous for its linen and textiles in the 1300s, it went on to become a major wool and textile producing area. Today, the picturesque market place has markets on Mondays and Fridays, plus there are plenty of shops, tea-rooms and pubs. Aylsham is the northern terminus of the Bure Valley Railway, a narrow-gauge steam railway which winds its way through the countryside to Wroxham, gateway to the Norfolk Broads, where you can hire boats. The station also marks the start of the Bure Valley Walk, a walking and cycling route alongside the line. If you are visiting Aylsham during the August bank holiday, you can look forward to the annual Aylsham Country Show. The Weavers Way trail, from Aylsham to North Walsham, follows a disused railway line and is a fantastic off-road route for walking, cycling and horse riding. The National Trust’s Blickling Hall, a sensational Jacobean house, with wonderful gardens and home to the Boleyn family from 1499 - 1505 is a short hop in the car. It is believed that Anne Boleyn’s ghost still roams the hall! The landscape, with its hedges and narrow tree-lined lanes, has changed little over the centuries and is quintessentially Norfolk. The Hall's grounds are surrounded by countryside, perfect for picnicking and exploring. There are beaches a plenty a mere 35 minutes drive away: Overstrand is a pretty, sleepy coastal village just two miles south of its larger neighbour, Cromer, and during the Victorian era was known as 'the village of millionaires' and a particular favourite holiday destination for Sir Winston Churchill. Overstrand still retains its old fashioned seaside charm, and there is now a busy Cliff Top Café, popular with locals and visitors. The beach is sandy and if you fancy a walk along the beach or coastal path to Cromer, you can reward yourself at the end with a drink at the beachside Rocket House Cafe, while you watch the fisherman and tide come and go. The family orientated traditional seaside town of Cromer has an award-winning pier, beautiful beaches with rock pools, cliffs and great sandy expanses, plus fabulous independent places to eat out in town. Becoming known amongst Norfolk's surfers as a hot spot, lessons and equipment hire can be booked at Glide Surf School. The Pier has a Pavillion Theatre, the only one of its kind in the country, which stages traditional variety shows and live music events. With plenty of carnivals, markets and festivals, there’s always something going on in and around Cromer. Norwich is only 13 miles away and Felbrigg Hall National Trust estate, with its gorgeous gardens, grounds and stately home is a short journey in the car. ## Property amenities ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Oven ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Shower - Towels provided ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 21 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.
