Lovely little hideaway

Our family had a wonderful short stay at The Lodge. The cottage is a real Tardis and is very well equipped with everything you need. The owner Sheela was lovely and really helpful and we had a really nice time exploring the grounds. The pool is hidden away but well worth seeking out (you can park right next to it). Will definitely be back.

Great “home from home” holiday

Delightful cottage, re-visited year on year. Great garden and dog walks in the woods. Spotlessly clean and well appointed. Swimming pool a great bonus, and great beaches to visit,

Cosy, warm and comfortable

This was my 2nd stay at this property and it is very comfortable with everything you need for a short break. The cottage is cosy and warm and in a good location to get out and about. The hosts are helpful, but leave you to enjoy the peace and quiet (although it is next to a main road, so expect some traffic noise at peak times).

14th visit and I've another one booked!

Having stayed here 14 times I can honestly say it gets better and better. Each visit something new has been upgraded or added . This time it was the heating in the outdoor pool. Great temperature, clean pool and so lovely to be able to book an hour for just our family. The owners go the extra mile to make our stay perfect. Can't wait for our next visit

Our lovely lodge

We had a wonderful time at the lodge, it was comfortable and really well stocked with all we needed. Shelagh and the team have everything sorted and are friendly and welcoming. There is plenty to do locally and we took in the races at Great Yarmouth which was a highlight. We plan to return.

Our 8th stay!

Love visiting the lodge. It's our home from home now . Owners are welcoming, the Lodge is always clean and well kept despite being 150 years old. Love the walks in the woods and the deer that even come into the garden. A peaceful place to stay but very close to the city too. We will be back soon for our 9th visit

A great stay In Norfolk

This place suited us down to the ground: the location is near our friends in Norwich, the cottage was clean, comfortable and well-equipped, surrounded by footpaths for dog walks, and the swimming pool was a treat (the booking system meant that it was really private and peaceful). Shelagh was very welcoming and helpful. We’ll definitely be back.

Another enjoyable week at the Lodge

Beautiful surroundings, well kept period property with unexpected extras like a dishwasher, laundry room and efficient heating. Very clean and well kept. Love walking in the woods and waking up to a deer on the garden.

Another amazing stay

Friendly, helpful hosts, excellent facilities on site, we love having the pool to ourselves for an hour every day, the buildings are part of history and staying in the old gatehouse was a real treat although the kitchen and bathroom have been modernised the surrounding garden and woods are very traditional. Deer, rabbits and a,black cat all,came to our,door for a visit. Good location for visiting the Broads. Norwich and the coast.Can't wait to return.

Beautiful countryside location and cottage - fantastic staff.

Fantastic site if you like a rural location but easy access to a Norwich or the coast. Cottage was just what we hoped for with well fitted modern kitchen. Surrounding grounds beautiful. Cottage comfortable, but could do with newer furnishings. The staff went out of their way to be helpful and were so kind. Nothing too much trouble. Recommend highly.

My grandchildren think of the farm as their second home.

We have stayed at the farm eight times over the last 15 years, each time we have visited Norfolk from South Carolina. When given the choice, our grandchildren always want to stay at the farm. We have stayed in Swallows, Pond and the Lodge, and love them all. The location is wonderful for visits into Norwich via the Park and Ride at the airport and also easy access by car to the coast and North Norfolk. The Cook family are caring and hospitable hosts, and go out of their way to take care of their guests. We wouldn't stay anywhere else!

The Lodge Review

I live in Spixworth and have always been intrigued by the Lodge, so it was great to actually stay there and finally be able to explore it. It exceeded my expectations as I had no idea how beautiful the garden is and how the woodland wraps around it. The Lodge itself is also totally beautiful inside and out with a great layout. I loved the garden room which is where we spent most of our time. If there is one negative it is very close to a busy road, however, I was pleasantly surprised at how little you could hear it, particularly when sitting in the garden room. I would definitely recommend this to others.

Tranquil stay

We loved our time at The Lodge. The huge private sunny garden was amazing and filled with flowers and nature. We loved the relaxed sunny breakfasts outside and walks from the door. The sofas were comfy. The kitchen was new and lovely and the place felt like an olde worlde cottage taking you back to an era of living simply. Nothing was too much trouble for the hosts who were very friendly and quick to respond to a minor bathroom issue. The onsite facilities are marvellous and the hosts very accommodating of us and helping us with cycle routes, beaches, etc. the swimming pool was warm, clean, easy to book and easy to find, very short drive around the corner. The boys loved the darts, pool table and table tennis. This is our second stay (the first at Pond Cottage without the dog). We would definitely return.

Fabulous week end break

Another wonderful time in a great location. The new “adult activity barn “ a great addition to the amazing facilities. Thanks so much, Norfolk is a beautiful county and the hospitality at Spixworth Hall cottages very welcoming.

A perfect place to stay!

Perfect for our family holiday - a great location close to Norwich which has something for everyone, a cosy cottage in a peaceful setting in the grounds of the Spixworth Hall estate and a short walk through the wood to all the facilities on offer - the two Games Rooms, the children's play area and.just a little further on to the swimming pool and tennis court! Only one downside - we did not stay long enough!!

Loved our stay

The one thing that let the lodge down was it’s poor shower but that has been dealt with in the form of a brand new shower . Although still small it’s nice and clean and new . We love staying at the lodge as we have done for years . And will continue to so .
