About this apartment rental

The Garden House is a newly converted eco barn which sits in a secluded and tranquil setting close to the 14th Century church, the village green and a short stroll from the award winning and dog friendly village pub, the Banningham Crown.

Situated within it's own fully enclosed garden, The Garden House is very dog friendly and we like to spoil our guests' four legged friends when they come to stay so we provide items to use during your stay to make the holiday easy and relaxing such as:

Water/feed bowls, feeding mat, leads, treats, toys, crates, holiday tags, poo bags/bins, towels, sofa throws and much more. We also provide information on the best dog friendly walks, beaches, etc.

The Garden House is in a great location with easy access to beautiful beaches, the Broads and Norwich and offers a real escape from it all.

The house has been lovingly restored and features underfloor heating, bespoke fittings and fixtures, a luxurious wet room with double shower, stunning kitchen with quartz worktop and a fully glazed wall which opens directly onto a large, secluded south/west facing terrace. The house is in a great location with easy access to beautiful beaches, the Broads and Norwich and offers a real escape from it all.

The building is all on one level and features a large living room with kitchen area which is flooded with light from the floor to ceiling glass wall on the south/west elevation. This provides direct access to the outside terrace via the large sliding glazed doors.

There is a well equipped kitchen with built in cooker, hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing/drying machine, Nutribullet and Nespresso coffee machine as well as ample cupboard space. The dining table and comfortable chairs are perfect for romantic meals at home or you could let someone else do the work and hire a local chef to come and cook a special meal for you - this information and details of the many fantastic local restaurants we recommend can be found in our digital welcome guide!

The living room also has comfortable sofas for you to relax and snuggle down for an evening in front of the television which has Netflix and Sky packages so that you can catch up on some box sets! It's also the perfect place to unwind with spa treatments or a yoga session - all of which can be undertaken in house, with recommendations on our bespoke digital welcome guide.

The bedroom is accessed via the living room and has a luxury king size Hypnos bed, built in wardrobe and its own separate access to the south facing terrace. The bed has a luxury topper, crisp white sheets and we supply fluffy white towels, bath robes and complimentary toiletries.

There is a stylish and spacious en-suite wet room which features a large 2 person shower area and drench digital power shower.

Even though The Garden House is in a secluded, tranquil location in a small village it does benefit from super fast broadband so you needn't miss any work emails .... or you could turn your phone off, relax and enjoy the peace and quiet!

The outside space comprises a large south/west facing terrace with teak outdoor dining furniture and a barbeque for al fresco summer meals. There are sun loungers for early evening cocktails or lazy summer days.

We also supply a comprehensive welcome hamper so that you can relax the moment you arrive. Your holiday can start straight away with a cup of tea and piece of home-made cake, or something stronger if you prefer!

Our bespoke Digital Welcome Guide gives all our guests the insiders track on Norfolk - the best places to eat and visit; the best shopping and adventure experiences and most importantly the most stunning and lesser known beaches. We include all the information you could wish for, such as:

The numerous National Trust properties close by including Blickling Hall and Felbrigg hall with their sumptuous interiors and stunning parkland.

Walking and cycling routes which can begin at the front door and include the quiet lanes on which the house is situated as well as the stunning coastal path, Weavers Way and Peddars Way.

The fabulous boutique shopping which can be found at Burnham Market, Holt and Norwich (including the stunning Elm Hill) and the local farmers markets and delicatessens offering amazing local and specialised produce too.

The best cultural events happening locally from permanent and visiting displays at The Castle Museum and Houghton Hall to upcoming productions at The Theatre Royal, Norwich.

The best restaurants and pubs, ideal for lazy lunches or special Michelin starred meals.

It's true, Norfolk has it all and it's waiting for you ...

The Garden Room in Banningham is an oasis of calm in a quiet Norfolk village. It is the ultimate example of a modern Self Catering Holiday in a cleverly converted old building with an up-to-date fully fitted, open plan kitchen-diner/lounge, and a king-size bedroom with ensuite wet room. The garden provides a restful area complete with a good sized patio with sun-loungers, outside table and chairs and a BBQ (for those of you who can't wait to show off your culinary skills. Too much like hard work for us as the villages around and nearby coast have some great pubs and hotels, We returned home thoroughly refreshed and looking forward to visiting again sometime soon.

The Garden House was ideal for my elderly parents, whist we stayed in the Coach House next door. The accommodation was all on one level with a modern kitchen and an en-suite shower room off the bathroom, and the large patio doors let in lots of light. The garden was lovely with nice garden furniture and a gas barbecue. Serena was an amazing host and was very helpful in taking delivery of a wheelchair we’d hired from Holt Mobility for my elderly father, which was much appreciated. The location is lovely and quiet but only 20-30 mins away from places such as Holt, Sheringham and the broads. Also recommend the Banningham Crown in the village. The food was lovely and they were happy to serve children’s meals to my elderly parents who can no longer eat big meals. We had a lovely family holiday and would highly recommend both the Garden House and the Coach House.

Cottage is extremely well equipped with everything you could need. The hosts were excellent and quick to answer any questions we had. Our dog is quite small and was almost able to get under the gate in the but Serena soon provided a resolution to allow him free run of the garden. All in all a relaxing few days and would definitely recommend.

The Garden House was just perfect for our first break away with our dog. Communication was brilliant throughout the booking process and whilst we were staying, plus the guest directory had so much useful information. The Garden House had everything we needed both for us and our dog, including dog towels, bedding and treats. Garden was secure which allowed us to relax and the location enabled us to explore various dog friendly beaches without having to travel too far. A fantastic stay and we will certainly be returning.
