About this property

Set within the grounds of a friendly working arable farm close to the river Waveney, this luxurious and traditional home is perfect countryside retreat for family, friends or to celebrate a special occasion. Earsham is the home to an award-winning artisan cheese producer as well as one of England’s most exciting producers of wine. Nearby, the market towns of Beccles and Bungay await, with Bungay's castle and ample opportunities for outdoor pursuits like walking, cycling, and boating, while Beccles charms with historic shops and welcoming pubs. Positioned near the Norfolk/Suffolk border and Broads National Park, it's an excellent starting point for coastal and countryside adventures, including the Beccles Marsh Trail and scenic riverside walks. Coastal gems like Lowestoft, Southwold, and Dunwich lie within 18 miles, and Norwich's vibrant cultural scene is a mere 15 miles away, ensuring a diverse array of experiences for an unforgettable holiday escape.
