Description

Ketlam View & Coach House offer the perfect solution for an exclusive stay for 14 guests in two beautiful holiday homes showcasing characteristics unique to the county. Ketlam View, built in the 1780’s from local carrstone (a particular feature of this area), is an attractive and luxuriously appointed farmhouse, perfect for a larger family or group of friends wishing to enjoy a holiday retreat in the beautiful countryside of north west Norfolk. The Old Coach House, also built from local carrstone, is located in the grounds of Ketlam View, and has recently been transformed into a comfortable, single storey three-bedroom chalet.  Both properties have been lovingly finished with elegant interiors and modern appliances, while retaining the traditional charm and character of these historic buildings.  

Across both properties, two living rooms and a cosy snug, with inglenook fireplace and two log burners, provide plenty of space to relax after a day exploring the Norfolk countryside and coast. Located on the grounds are a range of recreational facilities, including a heated indoor swimming pool and sauna, as well as a games room for table tennis, table football and darts. The gardens are large, mature and fully enclosed with patio areas providing the perfect environment for barbeques and al fresco dining. Children can play on two double swings and slides and explore the hidden corners of the gardens along with any four-legged family members who are most welcome.

The surrounding area offer views over fields as well as picturesque river and woodland walks nearby. You can enjoy a Reviving Facial or an Aromatherapy or Hot Stone Back Massage at the award winning Energise Pentney Spa which is only a 5-minute walk from Ketlam View. If you are celebrating a special occasion then Chef at Home by James Howe, a tried and tested private chef who knows the kitchen well, can take the stress out of cooking for a larger group, helping you to create an unforgettable experience which family and friends will remember for years to come.

Pentney lies just 15 miles from the North Norfolk Coast which is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty. Your choice of excellent sandy beaches is huge, the Coastal Path is great for walking and if you are feeling more energetic you could pick up the Pedders Way Walk. There are many nature reserves in the area, these along with the RSPB sites at Titchwell and Holme ensure that bird lovers will have a wonderful time. The sandy beaches of Snettisham, Heacham and Hunstanton are the closest, but a short drive across country makes Thornham and Brancaster accessible. Do take a visit to Sandringham, the Queen's home whilst in Norfolk. The house and grounds are well worth a visit and the Park is excellent for walking and off-road cycling - particularly safe for children. The local area offers wonderful woodland and river walks, excellent walking can also be found close at hand and the Quiet Lanes scheme in Norfolk offers good cycling in and around the village. Fly fishing and coarse fishing are available at the nearby Narborough trout and coarse lakes. Many places of historical interest lie in the surrounding area, including Castle Rising, Castle Acre Priory ruins, Houghton and Oxburgh Halls, Walsingham Abbey and Shrine ruins. Don't overlook Kings Lynn, the old town and harbour area are well worth a visit and of course the fuller facilities of a large town, restaurants, theatre and cafes are available.

Reviews

A great property in a lovely quiet rural location. Great facilities and layout. Really enjoyed the games room and pool. Nice to sit out in the very large enclosed garden and the dogs loved running around there. Excellent for a large gathering or extended family holiday. Would love to return.

Mr R,

Lovely houses: very spacious and well appointed. The kitchen and dining room in the main house were excellent and the whole family were able to sit around the same table to eat and play games. The other rooms were very comfortable and the garden was large and well maintained. Great for the Easter Egg Hunt! The jewel was the pool/sauna/table tennis rooms. We had good weather but had it not been, there was always so much to occupy us in this lovely place. I would certainly recommend it for a large gathering.

Mrs N,

An exceptional rural property which is well equipped and comfortable for 14 guests. 6 cars easily parked and in a very quiet area. Kitchen equipment was outstanding and as we all ate mainly in the house there are more than enough plates/cutlery etc. Pool is fabulous very warm and with sauna. Games were great especially as we had a few wet days! Highly recommend James Howe, Chef at Home who created an amazing meal all prepared and cooked at the house. Definately would consider returning and im sure the house is even better in the summer (we went in March !)

Mrs J,

It’s our second visit here and we love it. It’s perfect for our group of friends and the children have a wonderful time in the pool.

Mrs M,

Overall an enjoyable Christmas and stay.

Mrs G,

We had a great time. Kids were fascinated with the sheep! Great fun in swimming pool and games room. The houses are beautiful.

Miss P,

Overall though, we really enjoyed our stay so thank you for provided and clean and safe house for us to spend a great weekend in just before Christmas.

Mr L,

What an amazing find!! The property itself is stunning. So spacious for our large party of 14 & one dog. The pool & sauna were brilliant. Having ages from 11 - 69, there was something for everyone & we made full use of the facilities. Lovely quiet location & perfect for a dog walk. Not too far from a beach - we went to Heacham for a family walk. Really nice pub lunch nearby at The Dabbling Duck in Great Massingham. Immaculate bedding & towels. Fantastic large table that easily sat 14 for a big family breakfast & dinner. The extra touches, bottle of fizz, crisps, bread, milk, cookies & local chutney were incredibly generous & very gratefully received. We would love to return another time. Thank you for having us!

Miss D,

Superb accommodation for our winter family and friends get together, the old house and coach house were nice nice and warm and clean with a very spacious kitchen kitted out with all you need. Great walks along the local river Nar and local woods with the dogs and not to forget the lovely warm swimming pool. Lovely place Ketlam view and old coach house.

Mr G,

This is our third consecutive year of staying at Ketlam View and the Old Coach House. It is a perfect location for a family get together and the four generations of our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The two properties are beautifully furnished and incredibly well equipped. The pool was an absolute hit with all ages from 3 - 90 years. We are now planning our next stay.

Mrs K,

We had a lovely family holiday in Norfolk staying at Ketlam View and The Old Coach House. We particularly enjoyed the pool and games room.

Mr N,

Perfect for our family holiday over Christmas 2022. Everything for a group of 14 children and adults. Table big enough for all meals together. Fun and laughter in the heated pool and games room. Perfect evenings for all playing festive games, roasting chestnuts and melting marshmallows in front of the open fire. Quiet location, with countryside walks not too far from a day on the slightly breezy beach. Ketlam View and The Old Coach House offer a wonderful holiday break 5* service from their maintenance team and Norfolk Cottages

We had a lovely stay using both buildings. Kids enjoyed exploring the grounds and the pool and the games room were enjoyed by all! Highly recommend Watatunga as an activity. Beautiful beaches nearby. Walked across the footpath to find the horse - with several foals! Thanks again.
