Hillside Farm offers luxury bed and breakfast accommodation in a beautifully restored 16th Century Norfolk farmhouse, located in the pretty village of Bergh Apton. The farmhouse is the family home of Carrie & Martin Holl and is timber framed, thatched and with a wealth of historical features (listed grade II). Set in a pretty cottage garden, the house forms the central point of a busy working family farm with 350 acres of arable land. We have a large games barn with snooker, pool & table tennis. There are two well stocked coarse fishing lakes (in all five acres of water) which can be fished or just enjoyed for their wild life and tranquility. We are ideally situated for holidays or business guests, just seven miles South of the beautiful city of Norwich, with its fine cathedral, castle, and the renowned Sainsbury Centre for visual arts. Norwich is also excellent for shopping. There are many ideal walks, including the famous Wherryman's Way. We are within easy reach of the broads, Norfolk & Suffolk coastlines, RSPB reserves and National Trust properties. All local produce is used whenever possible. Special diets are catered for by arrangement.

Sheringham Park
Wander through Sheringham Park and you¿ll discover why it became the personal favourite of its designer, Humphry Repton. You can still see Repton's 'Red Book' showing his designs for the Park. Famous for its vast collection of rhododendrons and azaleas, the last owner, Tom Upcher, would hold rhododendron champagne parties in the 1950s to show them off. Ladies would arrive in their fine gowns, some wearing Wellington boots to walk down the main carriageway, sipping champagne and admiring the colours! Today, you can climb to the top of the towers to experience breathtaking views of this beautiful landscape. |

Castle Acre Priory
Castle Acre Priory, in the village of Castle Acre, Norfolk, England, is thought to have been founded in 1089 by William de Warenne the son the 1st Earl of Surrey who had founded England's first Cluniac priory at Lewes in 1077. The order originated from Burgundy. Originally the priory was sited within the walls of Castle Acre Castle, but this proved too small and inconvenient for the monks, hence the priory was relocated to the present site in the castle grounds about one year later. |

See the astonishing needlework by Mary, Queen of Scots, and the private chapel, built with reclaimed materials. Outside, you can enjoy panoramic views from the gatehouse roof and follow the woodcarving trails in the gardens and woodlands. The late winter drifts of snowdrops are not to be missed. |
