The Location

Located in Hickling, a charming village nestled in the heart of the Norfolk Broads, this area enjoys a picturesque setting renowned for its stunning waterways, protected nature reserves, and unspoilt landscapes. Hickling offers a peaceful and idyllic environment, ideal for those seeking a tranquil lifestyle surrounded by nature.

The village is particularly well known for Hickling Broad, the largest of the Norfolk Broads, which provides excellent opportunities for boating, sailing, fishing, and birdwatching. The surrounding marshlands, meadows, and woodlands form an important wildlife habitat, attracting a rich variety of birdlife and offering scenic walking routes throughout the seasons.

Hickling benefits from a friendly, close-knit community and retains a strong village atmosphere. A traditional country pub serves as a social hub, offering a welcoming place for residents and visitors to enjoy food and drink. Additional small local businesses and amenities contribute to the village’s character and sense of charm.

For a wider range of everyday services, the nearby market town of Stalham is just a short drive away and offers supermarkets, including Tesco, along with independent shops, cafés, medical facilities, and schooling. Alternatively, Wroxham, often regarded as the capital of the Norfolk Broads, provides further shopping, dining, rail links, and boating facilities, making Hickling both delightfully rural yet conveniently connected.
