About this property

Hopton-on-Sea 2.9 miles. Located in Lound near Hopton-On-Sea, Suffolk is this romantic, single-storey lodge, The Lookout. Offering far-reaching countryside views, this property is perfect for two guests looking to enjoy a quiet escape. Park up in your off-road parking space before stepping inside the lodge, which was once a stable, but now offers a beautifully-refurbished holiday home with the added comfort of underfloor heating throughout. Settle into the open-plan living space after the day's adventures with a stylish, well-equipped kitchen offering excellent amenities to whip up a delicious meal for your loved one. Time it right and you'll be savouring a romantic meal at sunset, with the dining table for two set in front of large windows looking out onto rural views. During the day, the sitting area is filled with natural light with two inviting leather sofas to curl up with a good book, watch the Smart TV or simply take in those peaceful views. Why not make the most of them on warmer nights with a cold glass of wine in your private garden? The Lookout offers a boutique-style shower room with a spacious walk-in shower to step under the hot water, all the while your towel warms on the heated towel rail. With thoughtful décor, storage space and a dressing table, you'll feel right at home in the super-king-size bedroom to crawl under the sheets and catch your rest. You'll find the popular Village Maid gastro pub in the village of Lound, as well as The Mardle Café & Bakery for breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea; Somerleyton Hall is a fine, Victorian stately home just south of The Lookout with a stunning park. Take a short drive into Hopton-on-Sea for plenty of shops and eateries to choose from; bring your towels for a day by the sea along the sandy beach, with the small village of Corton nearby for another sandy spot to soak up the sun. Journey north to Great Yarmouth to while the day away in a classic, seaside resort town with plenty of history to discover, including National Trust's Elizabethan House Museum, the Medieval town walls, and the vibrant Britannia Pier with theatre shows and arcades. Around Lound, you'll find plenty of walks and cycle paths to venture along, including The Broads National Park known for its idyllic landscapes, waterways and wildlife.

Between Corton and Great Yarmouth sits Hopton-on-Sea, a charming seaside village. The community is well-known as a popular beach resort, with a variety of activities such as amusement arcades and the Gorleston Golf Club, which hosts the World Indoor Bowls Championships in January.
