Hay's Wood Retreat, Blackborough End, Kings Lynn, Norfolk
There is plenty to discover without leaving the grounds. Two lakes and four woodland trails provide space for leisurely walks, family adventures and quiet moments beside the water. Guests can look out for local wildlife, discover the historic ice house or simply enjoy the changing countryside throughout the seasons.
Families with younger children will find plenty to keep them entertained. Facilities include a toddler play area, the inclusive Harper & Friends play area, a mud kitchen, water play and complimentary garden games. The retreat’s resident animals are another highlight, with Highland and Dexter cattle, alpacas, pygmy goats and rhea waiting to be discovered.
When it is time to slow the pace, guests can visit the coffee lounge or browse The Little Retreat Shop. There are also opportunities to enjoy the on-site pizza oven, while guests aged 16 and over have complimentary use of the gym during their stay.
Accommodation at Hay’s Wood Retreat has been designed to suit a variety of holidays. Guests can choose from classic two, three and four-bedroom lodges, woodland lodges, luxury lakeside hot tub lodges and dedicated accessible accommodation. Selected lodges also welcome dogs, making it possible for four-legged members of the family to join the holiday.
The classic lodges provide spacious and welcoming accommodation with high ceilings, underfloor heating and open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas. With different bedroom and bathroom configurations available, guests can select a lodge that works well for their particular group.
For those who want to feel even closer to nature, the woodland lodges provide a peaceful base surrounded by fresh air and countryside. They offer all the freedom of a self-catering holiday, with woodland walks waiting just beyond the door.
A little extra indulgence can be found in the three-bedroom lakeside luxury lodges. These include private hot tubs, air conditioning and Egg BBQs, creating a wonderful setting for outdoor dining and relaxing beside the water. A pet-friendly hot tub lodge is also available.
Accessibility has also been carefully considered. Three dedicated accessible lodges offer features including step-free access, wet rooms, hoist tracks and mobility beds. Two of these lodges have two bedrooms and sleep up to three guests, while the three-bedroom option accommodates up to four. A smooth pathway also provides access to reception and the Events Centre. Guests with specific requirements are encouraged to speak with the team before booking to ensure the most suitable accommodation and facilities can be arranged.
Hay’s Wood Retreat is well placed for exploring further afield too. The North Norfolk coast offers sandy beaches and beautiful coastal scenery, while nature reserves, historic market towns and the Sandringham Estate provide plenty of inspiration for memorable days out.
The retreat can also bring larger groups together for meetings, celebrations and organised stays. Its Events Centre includes Hay’s Wood Hall, Lakeview and a Boardroom, with media facilities and a commercial kitchen available by arrangement. Combined with accommodation on site, it provides a convenient countryside setting where groups can stay, meet and spend time together.
Whether the plan is a family adventure, a relaxing hot tub break, a dog-friendly getaway or simply a few peaceful days surrounded by nature, Hay’s Wood Retreat offers the space and flexibility to enjoy Norfolk at a gentler pace.
