STAYCAT IONS

Out of Towners IF YOU’RE WILLING TO GO THE EXTRA MILE, YOU CAN BET THESE DESTINATIONS WILL, TOO

THE WHITE HOUSE, NORTH NORFOLK

Located between BurnhamMarket and Brancaster Beach, The White House is an immaculately restored country manor, offering guests a hotel/B&B hybrid. There’s no in-house restaurant, but that gives you an opportunity to explore the many fabulous local eateries, such as The Hero in Burnham Overy and The Duck Inn, Stanhoe. Rooms are gorgeous, with free-standing bathtubs, winged armchairs and sash windows. And breakfast – the one meal of the day served at the hotel – is a feast of delicious local produce. stayatthewhitehouse.co.uk

FULLERS HILL COTTAGES

With six lovely little cottages on site, Fullers Hill has all your needs covered. Plus, you’re only ever half an hour from the city centre, so it’s possible to truly get the best of both worlds.

EAGLE MILL, HUNTINGDON

Set within three acres of gorgeous gardens in Huntingdon, Eagle Mill offers a selection of self- contained outside rooms, so your stay there will feel as though you have the entire place to yourself. With thoughtful added touches – including breakfast baskets delivered at a time of your choice – Eagle Mill is very much based on the traditional bed and breakfast experience. However, it adds a unique, modern twist to its countryside feel, with contemporary-style rooms to relax in – and the space to enjoy some alone time. Visit the website for more info. eaglemill.co.uk

CLOPTON COURTYARD Find another half-a-dozen top staycation spots at Clopton Courtyard, which offers cosy, self-contained countryside barn conversions, with plenty of space to call your own.

Chic, modern decor meets traditional values at Titchwell Manor, a hidden gem in the gorgeous Norfolk countryside. The glorious hideaway has earned a stellar reputation in recent years, in part because of its signature hot-tub rooms, but mostly due to its exceptional restaurant, which boasts three AA Rosettes. If you fancy turning your minibreak into a mini adventure, opt for the north Norfolk stand up paddle boarding package. Learn the basics during a two-hour taster session at Burnham Overy Staithe, just ten minutes’ drive from Titchwell. All information is on the website. titchwellmanor.com TITCHWELL MANOR, BRANCASTER
