The house is perfect for multi-generational gatherings, bringing friends and family together in one luxurious space. Our home features various living spaces, including a sunroom conservatory that gives access to the incredibly private walled garden and the River Burn, which runs through it. The recent renovation added a new games room with a pool table and arcade games, a dedicated workspace and an additional circular dining table (perfect for playing board games). The TV room, lounge, dining room and kitchen are all on the ground floor, along with one bedroom that is wheelchair accessible. The open-plan kitchen has solid wood worktops, a large freestanding oven and separate grill, hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, coffee machine, milk frother, kettle and toaster. Large groups who want to self-cater and enjoy meals together are sure to find the kitchen thoughtfully equipped to a very high standard. The main dining area has a wine and drinks fridge and drinks serving area, with a dining table that seats twelve (and you can squeeze a few highchairs around it if you need to). You can use the arched window in the dining room to pass food and drinks through to the courtyard and fire pit area where you can relax under the fairy-lit sky above you. The utility room holds the washing machine, tumble dryer, additional dishwasher, sink and two fridge freezers. We felt it was important to be able to do a big shop in Wells-Next-The-Sea or Fakenham and have enough space to keep it all fresh for your time at The Old Chequers. The various entertainment spaces have been cleverly divided to cater for all staying in the home. You could sit next to the cosy log burner in the lounge, enjoy a movie on the large corner sofa in the TV room with a surround sound system, or relax in the conservatory overlooking the garden and hopefully be lucky enough to meet some ducklings paddling in the creake. For those who need to work while on their trip, we have a dedicated workspace set up. The latest addition to our modern holiday home is a separate games room with a stunning pool table, arcade game console and additional TV. The large glass doors open to the garden and promises to be a hub of entertainment for guests of all ages, whether you want to relax or engage in friendly competitions. The flint stone walled garden has a wood-fired hot tub and a large lawn for kids and pets to run around or play outdoor games. Both the courtyard and the garden have outdoor seating, giving you the option to enjoy al fresco dining either by the fire pit in the pebbled courtyard or on the deck by the hot tub in the garden. The bedrooms have been thoughtfully furnished with temperature regulating bedding for the different seasons, including top-quality imported down and feather pillows and duvets, and high thread-count cotton linen. All bedrooms have their own en suite bathroom, Bluetooth speaker, wardrobe and exceptional quality mattresses. The sole downstairs bedroom has an additional entrance facing the driveway, for easy access. The bedroom is wheelchair friendly with a walk-in shower and the super-king bed can be made into twin beds upon request. We can arrange a shower chair if required. The most magnificent bedroom is, of course, the master. The bedroom overlooks the garden and has a super-king bed, a private dressing room and full en suite featuring a walk-in shower, large freestanding tub and underfloor heating. This bedroom is slightly separate from all the other rooms and also has an ante room with a sofa bed and TV, which is where we often let our own young kids sleep when we visit. Besides the master, there are 4 further bedrooms upstairs. The second bedroom (which we like to think of as the second master bedroom) has a little more space, a super-king bed that can be split into twin beds upon request, and an en suite with both a bath and a shower. The other bedrooms each have king-size beds and full en suite bathrooms. The Old Chequers offers a tranquil and relaxing spot where you can disconnect from the world, but we are also connected to high-speed fiber internet with plenty of entertainment options so you are never bored. The house has networked speakers throughout and music can be played simultaneously or separately in each room. The driveway can accommodate 2 cars with a possibility of up to 4 cars if squeezed in, and has a manual gate so you don't have to worry about a child or dog running out of the driveway. Additionally, parking is available adjacent to the house on Front Street. Things to note: We are a dog friendly home, and only ask that guests let us know in advance of any pets that will be staying with them, and respect our house rules during their stay. There is a separate entrance from the pebbled driveway, which is also the side access to the garden. This is the preferred area to leave your dogs if they are being left at the house on their own. Please be mindful of the creake if you are thinking of booking our home for a family with kids or pets. The small tunnels at either end of the stream in the garden are not fenced off. However, we feel very comfortable with our children playing outside in the shallow water, albeit we do make sure they are supervised. The log burner has a fireguard to keep little fingers at bay, and the hot tub has a lid to make it child-safe. Logs and all things fire can be found at the local nursery or at the petrol station in Burnham Market. Location: The Old Chequers is nestled in the quiet village of South Creake on the North Norfolk Coast. It is a wonderful property and is the perfect base for large groups of friends or families looking for a peaceful, relaxing retreat in a great location. Families with young children will be delighted to know that there is a children’s playground located on the village green, as well as a tennis court and bowling green. We are conveniently located within an 8-minute drive to both Burnham Market and Wells-next-the-Sea and a 10-minute drive to the famous Holkham Estate and Holkham Beach. Our kids absolutely love the extensive Woodland Play Area at Holkham Hall, which features treehouses, climbing frames, swings, slides and sandpits, and also has a special play area for toddlers. There are a variety of beaches on the North Norfolk coast, including Wells-next-the-Sea beach, Holkham beach, the beaches at Hunstanton and Heacham, and many others. Brancaster and Wells-next-the-Sea are great beaches for dog walking, and Cromer is popular for crabbing at the pier. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Massage ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 7 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 6.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo - Video games - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Computer monitor - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - Up to 25 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Front entrance ramp - Gravel flooring in public areas - In-room accessibility - No lift - Single level property - Smooth flooring in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Wheelchair-accessible path of travel - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the marina - On a river ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Billiards/pool table - Golf - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Bed sheets changed on request - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Towels (changed on request) ## Similar properties ![7 bedrooms, desk, iron/ironing board, free WiFi](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/50000000/49240000/49238200/49238190/2f00b5af.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxury North Norfolk Retreat | Hot Tub & Games Room South Creake - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-20&endDate=2025-11-21&selected=49238190&PinnedHotelID=49238190&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120150000/120141600/120141502/139aff63.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### ARC Next-The-Sea Wells-Next-the-Sea - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-20&endDate=2025-11-21&selected=120141502&PinnedHotelID=120141502&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/96000000/95999500/95999499/8acc3b9e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Cobblers, Luxury Coastal House for 16 in Wells Next The Sea, Norfolk.
