This beautifully crafted cabin sits in it's own private meadow nestled in the North Norfolk Countryside. A scandi inspired cabin designed to provide the luxury of a hotel suite whilst immersed in nature. A perfect space to unwind and reset.

Glorious Visit

We were celebrating a 70th birthday with 8 friends and wanted to find a beautiful house to gather everyone -- and Thursford Castle was perfect. The house and grounds are stunning, the living area is incredibly comfortable, the kitchen is superbly stocked, the bedrooms are quiet and cozy, and the en suite bathrooms are quite amazing. We enjoyed all of the different indoor and outdoor seating areas over the course of the week -- and I am embarrassed to admit that we even made use of the foosball table! The Hicklings are gracious hosts who helped me plan the festivities, including recommendations for a great local caterer and florist. And we are hugely appreciative that the house is dog friendly, as we had two dogs with us. Thursford Castle provided the magic for a truly memorable and glorious week with our friends.



We had a brilliant stay at this amazing location

Thursford Castle is an amazing experience , the history of the site is fascinating and Sally very kindly talked us through it, the level of comfort is extremely high with lots of different rooms and places to crash out. We left feeling very chilled. Would highly recommend.



What a gem of an oasis!

Absolutely amazing stay. The grounds, the house itself and the owners! Will definitely come back and recommend to others. We had the most amazing time and wished we could have stayed longer. The e bikes that were provided were so much fun!

Our recent visit to Thursford Castle was everything we hoped it would be having seen it featured on Sandi Toksvig’s Extraordinary Escapes series.
Thursford Castle offers a much-loved family home ambience with all the trimmings you expect from a property of this caliber. The restored chapel entrance to the property provides a dramatic wow feeling and we couldn’t wait to explore the rest of the house.
A beautiful vase of spring daffodils and a food hamper gift were waiting for us in the open plan kitchen and living area and the room was lit with soft lamplight which made us feel immediately at home and welcomed.
During our visit the Hickling family were staying in the walled garden accommodation and we enjoyed our regular chats with our friendly hosts. We were offered an introductory session on the electric bikes which is a separate business that conveniently operates from the site. The cycle ride made for a memorable experience and helped us work of the excess from our many pub lunches whilst at the same time provided a fun way to explore the locality and neighbouring village. My husband’s bike was equipped with a dog carrier which comfortably accommodated our shih tzu for the trip.
Thursford Castle can comfortably accommodate larger groups or two families but still felt cosy enough for the two of us and a dog.
Our visit at the end of March /early April brought an unexpected cold spell and a light dusting of snow but we still enjoyed walks, cycling shopping in Holt, pub lunches and cosy evenings in front of the log fire watching TV.
We would definitely recommend this property and would love to stay there again.




An incredible place to stay with family for a special occasion

We had an absolutely wonderful stay here for my partners 30th Birthday. It is much more spacious than the pictures appear - big enough for 2 families (four couples) to stay with plenty of privacy as well as wonderful communal areas. We can find no complaints. It was incredibly clean and had everything we needed for cooking a family meal. We would definitely go back!

Sally and Mark have created a wonderful and unique home which our family felt privileged to share. Travelling from Australia for our first family get together for 3 years Thursford proved a superb location for us to enjoy our time together. North Norfolk is a great backdrop for walking, dining and spending time together.
