About this property

The Gate House is one of a pair that stand sentry on the drive arriving to Kimberley Hall. Famed for the stunning Capability Brown designed parkland, the estate is listed by Kew Gardens as containing the highest concentration of ancient oak trees (500+ years old) in East Anglia, and was voted the 25th best parkland for oaks in the UK. A superbly romantic retreat for couples looking to escape to the countryside, with plenty of walks to enjoy throughout the adjacent parkland.

Kimberley Hall is one of Norfolk's most important historic houses. This romantic pink gate house boasts a private garden overlooking a beautiful landscape, where you will often see grazing cattle, roe deer, barn owls and red kites. The meandering River Tiffey, runs through the park a mere 400 metre walk from the cottage.

This exquisite detached property offers a double bedroom with a high-quality super-king bed and custom made headboard. You’ll also find an excellent bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable sitting room with exquisite domed ceiling, sofa, widescreen Smart TV and a modern LED log effect burner.

Outside, the large private garden which is separated from the park by fencing that encloses the space. Facing west and offering additional seating plus barbecue, it is the perfect spot for sundowner cocktails to be enjoyed late into the evening in this peaceful corner of Norfolk. Should you wish to bring your horse, the adjacent three acre paddock can be used when cattle are not grazing, and there is a stable available upon request. .

  • Mr M

    Lovely little hideaway, ideally placed for Norwich and the surrounding area. Good kitchen and living room, comfortable bed and functional bathroom (albeit with amazing views of the countryside and wildlife). Nice grounds to stroll in (sticking to the paths), fantastic animal and birdlife. Steve (Estate Manager) was very helpful and knowledgeable.

  • Mr J

    Very comfortable warm cottage with a very warm friendly reception from Steve the estate manager.

  • Miss L

    Beautiful setting, great location. Good facilities including BBQ. Quaint little place for a couples retreat.
