A fabulous and truly unique opportunity to stay on the beautiful Holkham estate in this 200-year-old stylish Georgian farm manager's house. Enjoy an idyllic farm setting, with views to die for, where only the sounds of nature are likely to disturb the peace. This hideaway boasts a hard surface, family tennis court for guests to use.
Grade II listed, The Tack House is a very special Norfolk hideaway located just a ten-minute walk away from the South Gates, parkland and Long Avenue that sweeps down to glorious Holkham Hall. If you love walking, cycling and fresh air and relish calm and rural living, this is the perfect place for you. Add very easy access to the stunning beaches along the Norfolk coastline (Holkham's own beauty is just the other side of the park) and you have hit gold!
Thoughtfully refurbished, a great deal of consideration has gone into ensuring this spacious period country house has retained an essence of grandeur and elegance. The addition of a stylish mix of contemporary and antique furniture along with an eclectic selection of artworks from the art dealer owner's private collection enhance The Tack House’s individual character and bring it to life. You will find it to be a rather smart, but casual, easy and unfussy house that is comfortable and well-equipped, with rooms that are airy and bright. And there is certainly ample room for everyone to ‘spread out’.
From The Tack House, it is possible to walk all the way to the Holkham Hall and Holkham beach. Bikes can be rented in the park or there is the option to have bikes rented and delivered to The Tack House. It is a great way to explore all the way down to Holkham and Wells Beach directly from the property.
