Located in West Norfolk, Pentney Lakes sits between the historic market town of King’s Lynn and the stunning North Norfolk coastline. You’re only a short drive from the charming villages of Castle Rising, Sandringham, and Snettisham, as well as the unspoilt beaches of Heacham, Hunstanton, and Brancaster. The nearby countryside is perfect for cycling and walking, while golf courses, country pubs, and local farm shops add to the appeal. King’s Lynn offers excellent transport links, a wide range of shops, and a rich heritage with its cobbled streets and historic quay.

For those who prefer to stay close to home, Pentney Lakes has a welcoming community feel and an atmosphere that encourages you to slow down and reconnect with nature. Mornings can be spent enjoying coffee on the deck as the mist rises off the water, and evenings bring spectacular sunsets over the lake. The peaceful surroundings, abundant birdlife, and gentle lapping of the water create an environment that feels far removed from everyday life, yet you’re never too far from the coast, countryside, or town amenities.

Whether you’re seeking adventure on the water or pure relaxation by the lake, this beautiful lodge is the perfect Norfolk escape, peaceful, scenic, and designed for complete comfort.

    Perfect hideaway on the edge of the lake, with friendly ducks and swans just waiting to be fed (not bread though, please!). Despite the claim it is a sports venue, we only had one water skier the first evening. A bit further from our wildlife hotshots in Norfolk, but not that far from the Lincolnshire reserves. 40 species of bird seen on site, at least the species of bat detected.

    I had the most wonderful stay at the Boathouse a couple of weekends ago. I’m lucky enough to be local, so I can go back again and again…. And I intend to!! I was looking for a place to chill and recharge for a couple of days and this place delivered in spades. I hung out for two days, enjoying the quiet, the solitude and that amazing view! Believe me, it’s even better than the pictures. If you are looking for a retreat in a terrific location in Norfolk you’d be hard pressed to do better. Thank you to the hosts for the welcome basket and the clear notes on the home and directions.
