About this property

Country setting in rural Norfolk.

Relax on our old repurposed farm in a fantastic location just 15 minutes from Norwich, 15 minutes from The Broads AONB or travel 20 minutes to the historic market town of Aylsham. Walk through the grass on our 14 acre field or sit in the dappled shade of our mini arboretum. It's a 30 min scenic drive to many great beaches. We even have an aviation museum on site for those history fans! The property is also wheel chair friendly with ramp at both doorways, etc.

Great stay

Great stay. Friendly hosts. The beehive is a gated bungalow with parking next to property. The property is comfortable with everything there you need. The large beautiful garden was the highlight for us and making memories with the kids. Visited BeWILDerwood and roaar which are both close by and are both excellent Surrounding area is beautiful with many nice pubs within a short drive plus the Broards. Would love to return and highly recommend.

Home away from home

The Beehive is a quaint little getaway perfect for a small family looking for some peace and quiet. The property was clean and comfortable, with the added touches of fresh bread, milk, and marmalade. The gated property provides a great sense of security and privacy, and the adjacent garden is perfect for playtime. The hosts were very helpful and welcoming. And if you have the chance to visit the nearby Aviation Heritage museum, do take the opportunity.

Miller Family

Fantastic location and great hosts. Wet peaceful and quiet and amazing gardens. Wish we had more time as Travis was a wealth of knowledge of WW2 planes and air hubs with an amazing collection of artifacts and history in his museum that we has no idea even existed when booking. Would highly recommend extra time to see. Would definitely stay here again. Many, many, many thanks!!
