    “Very nicely presented.”

    Internet was via mobile router, so was usable, but a little patchy (only able to stream one thing, and often would become unusable if more than 2-3 devices was accessing content). Our Blu-Ray player wasn't working (device was, but controller wasn't) - not the end of the world! Swimming pool as a little cool (was heated, but clearly struggling with temperature in early Nov).

    Internet was via mobile router, so was usable, but a little patchy (only able to stream one thing, and often would become unusable if more than 2-3 devices was accessing content). Our Blu-Ray player wasn't working (device was, but controller wasn't) - not the end of the world! Swimming pool as a little cool (was heated, but clearly struggling with temperature in early Nov). Games room was excellent - although I would suggest getting new 'consumables' (chalk for pool cues, nets for table tennis, etc.) would make it even better!?

About the location

FAKENHAM

Norwich 25 miles; Holt 13 miles.

The historic market town of Fakenham is famous for its horse racing and offers a wide selection of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants. Situated on the River Wensum, half way between Norwich and Kings Lynn it is an excellent, central location for exploring Norfolk. The town holds a popular Thursday market which takes over most of the town centre with local traders and those from further afield selling a wide selection of goods. The town also plays host to a Farmers’ Market, monthly on the fourth Saturday of every month, ideal for stocking up on fresh local produce. Fakenham is a very attractive market town with pretty brick and flint-faced buildings, narrow alleyways and side streets to explore. Often referred to as the Gateway to Norfolk this town really does offer a perfect base for exploring this beautiful county. You are only a twenty minute drive from the coastal towns of Wells-next-the-Sea, Holkham and Burham Overy where you will find miles of pine forests, sandy beaches, salt marshes, tidal creeks and great opportunities for birdwatching. There are some lovely areas of unspoilt countryside and villages and the Holkham Estate has a number of attractions and a fabulous deer park. With so many activities on offer, this area is a fantastic choice at any time of year.
