Firefly Spa Lodge

Nestled within the peaceful grounds of Thompson Hall, this secluded lodge offers a unique glamping escape with its own private spa garden. Perfect for couples or small groups, this pet-friendly retreat welcomes dogs and, by prior arrangement, horses too. Surrounded by 32 acres of countryside, it's an ideal base for exploring Norfolk's natural beauty, with walking routes including the Peddars Way and Pingo Trail nearby. Thompson Water is just a mile away, while Thetford Forest is within easy reach for days spent outdoors. Guests can also enjoy access to the on-site Wilderness Spa, featuring a natural unheated swimming pond, sauna, hot tub and treatments (available at an additional cost and to be arranged in advance), along with freshly prepared meals from the on-site bistro.

Inside, the main lodge has been thoughtfully designed for comfortable self-catering stays, with an open-plan living space comprising a cosy lounge with a wood burner, TV and DVD player, alongside a well-equipped kitchen and dining area. The bathroom is located within the main lodge and features a steam shower, flushing toilet and heated towel rail. The sleeping accommodation is housed in a separate king-size bedroom pod, which is accessed via the enclosed garden rather than internally from the lodge. The pod offers a peaceful place to rest, complete with blackout blinds, bedding and storage for personal belongings.

Outside, the enclosed private spa garden provides a relaxing space to unwind, featuring a wood-fired hot tub, infrared sauna and outdoor seating area. An initial supply of wood is provided for both the wood burner and hot tub, with additional wood available to purchase on-site or locally if required during your stay. As evening falls, fairy lights create a welcoming atmosphere, while the front garden offers outdoor furniture, a gas fire pit and BBQ grill for al fresco dining. With private parking and a range of optional extras available, this is a wonderful countryside retreat for those looking to slow down, switch off and reconnect with nature.
