The Bolthole
The Bolthole is set adjacent to Captain’s Cottage and provides additional luxury accommodation for 2 guests.

The combined bedroom and lounge area is a very stylish area in which to relax and put your feet up. There is a sumptuous super king size bed with a chest of drawers and wall hanging space for your clothes. The lounge area has a large comfy sofa, smart TV, and an ethanol burner. There is also a storage chest, sourced from amongst the gems at Norfolk Reclamation, that has been lovingly restored andnow provides a home to a selection of games, as well as a little hoover and an iron and mini ironing board.
The brand-new contemporary kitchen features a quartz worktop and is very well-equipped with a built-in oven and ceramic hob, dishwasher, ceramic Belfast sink, microwave, under-counter fridge, combined washer/dryer and a Tassimo coffee machine. Please note that there is no freezer in The Bolthole.
