Wake up slowly, with nothing but birdsong and the soft rustle of the countryside around you. At The Pheasant, there’s no rush just time to enjoy a quiet coffee on the decking, wander through nearby lanes or settle into the warmth of your own wood-fired hot tub as the day fades.

This is a place for simple pleasures. Cosy evenings, starry skies and that feeling of being tucked away from it all, even if only for a little while. While wonderfully secluded, you’re still within easy reach of Norfolk’s charming market towns, scenic walking routes, and the beautiful coastline.

Loved the hot tub although at first was surprised it wasn't a bubbly hot tub but actually found this very relaxing and even more enjoyable! Loved sitting on the decking with a fire burning and listening to nothing but the sound of the birds!

Thank you do much for a relaxing stay. The hut is lovely. So different from home, was lovely to just sit and chill. My only regret is I couln't take the bed home! Best sleep I've had in ages.
