A spectacular brick and flint Victorian chapel conversion sitting in acres of land, with woodland walks and superb rural views. This extremely spacious, stylish luxury home retains a sense of ecclesiastical grandeur and is bursting with character throughout. Set in a quiet, wooded corner of the Norfolk countryside, The Chapel offers its guests a heady mix of gothic architecture, pastural setting and modern facilities. Having been painstakingly restored over the course of a seven year project, The Chapel will now comfortably accommodate ten guests in five bedrooms, four of which are situated on the ground floor. Of the five bedrooms, three are en-suite, with a family bathroom serving the remaining two bedrooms. The generous proportions of the property have allowed the owners to create rooms that capture the imagination of those that stay, by way of its tasteful décor and the eclectic furnishing, embellished with pops of rich colour dotted here and there. Features include original wooden parquet flooring, a grand oak staircase, vaulted ceilings, Portland columns and gothic windows. Stepping outside, you are immediately reminded of the rural location. Mature trees and planting form a calm and contemplative backdrop for al fresco dining. While the back the garden is fully fenced and enclosed, the outer garden and woodland area is not ‘dog-proofed'. Locally, you'll find the village of North Elmham just a short drive away, or a stroll along the pretty disused railway. Situated close to the banks of the River Wensum, here you'll find a great post office/cafe, a village shop for groceries, and two popular pubs, The Kings Head and The Railway Arms for meals or just a quiet drink, plus there's a fish and chip shop for a takeaway in front of the fire. For a special occasion, a dinner reservation at the nearby Brisley Bell is highly recommended. Having recently been the recipient of an award at The Great British Pub Awards 2021, a fabulous review in The Telegraph and local food awards. NB: Children and dogs must be supervised at all times when in the gardens. There is a large open pond in the enclosed garden, and a river running through the meadow outside the main garden, neither of which are suitable for swimming. Additional Information: Four well-behaved dogs welcome (small additional charge). Pillows and duvets are a mix of synthetic fibre and feather. Please bring your own pods for the Nespresso coffee machine (standard size). There is no equipment provided for infants. There is a private water supply at this property.
The name North Elmham comes from the Old English, meaning "village where elms grow" and is first mentioned in 1035. Lying on the west bank of the River Wensum with its Medieval church of St Mary, which stands next to the grounds of the old cathedral and the ruins of the Bishops Chapel close by. Fantastic countryside walks abound from the doorstep and enthusiastic cyclists have lanes galore to explore, as well as Bintree woods which are just down the private lane from The Chapel.
Pensthorpe Natural Park, as featured in BBC's Springwatch, is only a few miles away and is a lovely place to spend a day, for both young and old.
Thursford, just eleven miles away, is home to one of the world's most significant steam and fairground museums, The Thursford Collection, and also hosts a spectacular Christmas show each year, popular with visitors from far and wide. The market town of Fakenham, also nearby, has a good choice of supermarkets and also an excellent market every Thursday, and a Saturday Farmer's Market once a month. There's also a bowling alley and a very well regarded National Hunt racecourse with a popular Ladies Day each June. Holt with its pretty independent shops, galleries, cafes and restaurants is an easy drive away.
The stunning North Norfolk coast is a thirty minute drive. Enjoy exploring the renowned favourites of Wells-next-the-Sea, Holkham and Brancaster to name just three.
