Thursford Castle — Hotel in North Norfolk

Dear Sally and Mark,

I wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for the wonderful experience we had at your charming accommodation.

From the moment we stepped through the gate into the serene walled garden, we were enveloped by an overwhelming sense of tranquility. On a beautiful blue sky summer day, the garden in full bloom was an absolute feast for the senses. We couldn't help but constantly turn to admire another stunning flower or ornamental grass as we made our way to the Garden Room.

The Garden Room is a true master class in design, as is the second cabin. Every detail exhibited your impeccable taste and thoughtful planning. The blend of functionality and style was both impressive and comforting - a perfect blend that made our stay absolutely delightful.

Your efforts to restore a historical site into such a wonderful home and a welcoming space for others are truly commendable. It is evident how much love and dedication you have put into this project, and it has undoubtedly paid off.

Additionally, our visits to Holkham beach, the farm shop at Little Walsingham for local produce, and VinedMe for that lovely glass or two of wine were just as delightful. The friendly and knowledgeable staff, along with the excellent wine at VinedMe, capped off our stay perfectly.

In summary, our stay with you was nothing short of excellent and did not disappoint in any way. We are already looking forward to our next visit and will highly recommend your lovely space to our friends and family.

Thank you once again for creating such a...

My husband and I had the privilege of staying at the Walled Garden for two nights. In hindsight, we could have easily stayed longer.

One of the many undeniable qualities of the Garden Room is its character. There's nothing usual about it; everything is uniquely decorated and aesthetically pleasing. Whether you're inside or out, all your senses are awakened, which I love.

The space you are given is unmatched, featuring a separate bedroom suite, meaning you have not one, but two spacious cabins in your very own 2-acre garden. Yep, 2 acres all to yourself! You’ll likely see the owners wander in to open and close the greenhouse twice a day, but apart from that, it’s all yours.

It’s fair to say there was nothing left to be desired. We didn’t see much of Norfolk until after we checked out, because you end up not wanting to leave. We did enjoy breakfast at the parlour, thanks to Mark's recommendation, and the farm shop was great for picking up some bits and pieces before we hurried back to the Walled Garden to savour every moment.

I think it goes without saying that we’d definitely recommend the Walled Garden. So much so, we are eagerly...

We were both much in need of some quiet time and an escape from the hustle and bustle of life. The peace and tranquillity offered by The Walled Garden was the perfect recipe to unwind. The two buildings gave us both space and comfort, they have been well designed and had everything we could possibly need. With so munch glass at the front, it was easy to feel immersed in the wonderful garden and, whilst the weather wasn't great, we spent many happy hours sitting watching and listening the to birds. With plenty of places to visit, either inland or on the coast, it made for the perfect holiday for us and we hope very much to return, perhaps enjoying a different season...
