“Hugatree is a lovely place to stay, perfectly positioned for exploring Norfolk, and in a beautiful setting.”
I was the first guest to stay there, and found Hugatree very well-presented, with everything I needed, and cleverly done in such a bijou building.
Terry and Marie, the owners, were very kind and attentive, and whilst there were a couple of teething issues, I am sure that these will have been sorted out, making Hugatree the cosy, comfortable, countryside retreat of one's holiday dreams. I was there in the first week of an unseasonably cold May, and think siitting on the veranda on a warm Summer's evening, sipping something cool whilst watching the sun go down over the fields, will be idyllic.

About the location
LITCHAM
East Dereham 9 miles; Swaffham 9 miles; Fakenham 11 miles.
Litcham is a traditional, rural Norfolk village with one pub (The Bull Inn), a local butcher, a combined post office and convenience store, and a fish and chip shop. The beautiful village church, with its prominent square tower, dates back to the 12th century, though it was rebuilt to a great extent in the 15th. Litcham and the surrounding villages in the parish (particularly Beeston and Tittleshall) have a busy events calendar. Litcham Common, officially a Local Nature Reserve for over 20 years, is superb for nature lovers, bird-watchers and particularly walkers, as it sits on the Nar Valley Way, which runs all the way from East Dereham to King's Lynn. The three local towns of East Dereham, Swaffham and Fakenham are all about 10 miles away, providing access to a wide range of shops, pubs and restaurants.
