Country Lodge with Wood-Heated Hot Tub and Farm Animals in Swaffham
Accommodation & Amenities
Bishy Barnabees Country Lodge offers a one-bedroom holiday home with a living room, terrace, balcony, and garden. The lodge has a fully equipped kitchen, a fireplace, and a BBQ for outdoor cooking. Guests use a wood-heated hot tub that the host fires up daily, plus binoculars for birdwatching from the oak tree branches above the tub.
Farm & Outdoor Experience
The lodge overlooks stables and horse fields where guests watch horses, goats, chickens, and ducks daily. A gated dirt road behind the paddocks leads directly into a large forested area with woodland walks frequented by cuckoos and red kites. Bird feeders visible from the glass doors attract various birds, and the farm's dogs (Blue, Polo, Louie) often visit the lodge.
Hospitality & Welcome
Hosts Suzie and Mick provide a welcome gift of fresh eggs, butter, milk, and homemade jam upon arrival. Mick heats the hot tub each morning and offers advice on local walks and places to eat. The lodge includes a book of local attractions, including hospitals and doctors, and the hosts respect guest privacy while being available when needed.
Location
The lodge is located 29 km from Houghton Hall and 11 km from Castle Acre Castle, with Weeting Castle and Sandringham House Museum & Grounds also nearby. Norwich International Airport is 49 km away, and Swaffham (with fish and chip shops) is a short drive. Woodland walks are accessible within five minutes from the lodge gate.
Pet-Friendly Accommodation
The lodge has a secure fenced area around the property that allows dogs to run freely without escape. Dogs can join guests on the woodland walks through the gate at the bottom of the horse fields. Guest reviews mention that the farm's friendly dogs also come to the door for morning greetings.
