The Malthouse, Reepham, Norwich

About this property

Complimentary Welcome Hamper

A complimentary welcome hamper will be awaiting you on your arrival containing milk, tea, fresh coffee, bread, butter, eggs, juice, wine and cheese, along with other essential items to prepare a light snack or breakfast. There may be some regional variations.

This beautiful 400 year old former Malthouse, looking out over wooded and tranquil countryside, offers modern first class facilities while preserving its character as a Grade II listed building.

Underfloor heating, top grade insulation and a wood burning stove (from Autumn 2016) ensure comfort all the year round. Two double bedrooms, two bath/shower rooms (one en suite) and a large living area on a single level provide a wonderfully well-equipped, spacious, and peaceful place to stay.

The property lies down a very quiet lane just over a mile from Reepham, which has a beautiful Georgian market place. Just over 100 yards from The Malthouse is the Marriott’s Way, a former railway transformed into a 26 mile ‘green corridor’ to Norwich. This area is exceptionally rich in historic towns, buildings and National Trust sites with Holt, Blickling, Felbrigg and Norwich of exceptional interest. Cromer and the beautiful North Norfolk coast can be reached in 40 minutes.
