Description

Grandeur abounds despite the petiteness of your base. A true folly, savour its delights, large and small. Cosy up inside. Step straight out for wondrous walks. This is you time exemplified.

Bijou bolthole

Rarely is a country estate complete without its folly. This one is all yours. Exquisitely apt, its tip-top renovation retains a focus on enjoyment and escape. All you need to curl up and be cosy, to snuggle up and sleep, to stretch your legs and take in the air. It’s all here. But let there be no work here. No effort shall be called for. When it’s time to dine, it’s time to be served - elsewhere, off site, most teasingly in the nearby Victoria Inn or Wells Beach Cafe. Make use of the toaster, kettle and fridge if you really must!

However long you choose to stay, or return for, your Grade II listed gatehouse is unlike any other. Gloriously grand high ceilings and decorative plasterwork encase a bijou studio apartment. All on one level on the ground floor you’ll discover an open plan layout centred around an achingly large fireplace. The wood burning stove is suitably nurtured by deep seated, comfortable armchairs. Their wool blankets just there should you need them. Let the fire roar through the coolest of evenings. Let the deep stone walls keep you cool in the hottest of summer nights.

A rather opulent king size bed sits stately waiting for you to plunge into its proudly plumped linens. Crisp white sheets at the ready. An en suite shower room kick starts your day or soothes you into a quiet evening in.

It may take you some 15 minutes to walk from your haven at Palmers Folly to the centre of the Estate and Holkham Hall, but bring pooch along to enjoy the setting. Another 15 minutes beyond will steer you through the Holkham village and on to the beach. This pet friendly cottage makes for a wonderful base for a revitalising Norfolk walking holiday (just please keep man’s best friends on leads through the Holkham Hall grounds). The Estate alone provides many exploring options incorporating woodland and access to the golden sands.

Bedroom and bathroom

Palmers Folly sleeps two in a studio style open plan space including a sumptuous king size bed. There’s an en suite shower room and separate loo.

Reviews

Beautiful peaceful location, been here several times before and will always look forward to a return visit.

Mr B,

Perfect and peaceful surrounded by the woods with pheasants and deer all around. Lodge was extremely comfortable with large bed and plenty pillows. Welcome pack was lovely especially the caramel and sea salt biscuits. Cosy evenings spent in front of the wood burner with a plentiful supply of wood which was restocked during our stay. Perfectly placed to access Holkham beach and the free parking was a nice bonus. Would definitely stay here again.

Mrs H,

Outstanding location that is ideal for a short break. A good base for exploring the estate and local area.

Mr L,

We loved our holiday so much. Best location away from everything Just beautiful. Thank you

Mrs A,

A delightful 'bijou residence' set in a very wonderful location.

Mrs C,

Ditto.

Mrs G,

We, as before, thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing time at Palmers Folly, plenty of walking, enjoyed the peaceful environment. Will definitely be back.

Mr B,

Amazingly quiet and tranquil setting - great retreat for peace and serenity.

Dr J,

Seclusion and comfort, beautiful location.

Mr B,

What a lovely stay! There is something quite magical about staying on the Holkham Estate. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves the North Norfolk Coast and the estate itself.

Mrs P,

Wonderful location for a nature filled holiday.

Ms G,

If you're looking for a peaceful break in a beautiful setting you won't be disappointed. Holkham Hall itself is a bonus as is the nearby beach and Wells Town.

Mr G,

Palmers Folly located on the Holkham estate was a perfect setting for a very quiet break surrounded by woods, parklands and wildlife. Also very close to the stunning North Norfolk coast and numerous country parks - perfect for a quiet reflective break,

Mr T,

Very clean and cosy property. Wonderful quiet location.

Prof S,

Wonderful location extremely peaceful.

Mrs B,

The cottage was in a perfect location and we were delighted with our choice. The goody bag was a nice touch but we would have preferred basics like milk, bread and butter as there are no shops in the immediate surroundings and frustrating if you arrive late. One loo roll (poor quality) was not enough for 3 nights. We had to wash our dishes outside as the shower and loo areas are tiny and this isn't clearly explained on your website. The mattress cover was stained and needs replacing. Communication was good getting to the cottage and it was easy to access when we arrived.

Mrs Sue G,
