Nestled in the heart of the north west Norfolk countryside, South Raynham is a small historic village approximately five miles from Fakenham and just a short drive to the beautiful North Norfolk coast. The fabulous Raynham Hall, just outside the village, was built in 1619 by Sir Roger Townsend. The estate covers 7000 acres and occupies the first seven miles of the Wensum River. It is one of the oldest buildings in Norfolk and is heavily inspired by European architecture. With wonderful walks down the River Wensum from the adjoining village of West Raynham, there are beautiful trails on your doorstep and plenty of wildlife to see. Also close to some great places to eat including The Dabbling Duck at Great Massingham and The Crown Inn at Rudham. The nearby market town of Fakenham has a variety of shops, restaurants, pubs, cinema, bowling alley, golf and racecourse. The North Norfolk coast with its beautiful beaches and RSPB nature reserves, and seals at Blakeney point is only a short 20-30 minute drive away. Culture vultures will love its proximity to the numerous stately homes; including Houghton Hall, Holkham Hall, HM The Queen's Sandringham Estate or Oxburgh Hall. For those more interested in nature, then head to Pensthorpe Wildlife reserve where you will see native birds and wildlife in their natural habitat.
