One of Chaucer's characters in The Canterbury Tales - The Reeve, is said to have come from here. The Bothy @ Jasmine House Norfolk, is situated on the edge of the village, but the village is easily within short walking or driving distance. The beauty of this location, is that you can visit the city of Norwich (12 miles), the beautiful North Norfolk Coast at Wells-Next-the-Sea & Blakeney for example, and Wroxham - the gateway to The Broads all within a 20 mile radius. The countryside is famous for its 'big skies,' wildlife, birdwatching & historical towns, churches & stately homes. The beautiful Georgian town of Holt is 15 miles away along pretty country roads. Reepham, another historic small town is just 4 miles away, where there is a doctors surgery. Fakenham, 10 miles away has a famous racecourse & a lovely market on Thursdays. There are plenty of walks nearby & the landscape is not as flat as most people imagine in this part of Norfolk. There is something to do all the year round and we are very close to Pensthorpe Natural Park - one of Norfolk's major attractions. Norfolk is now renowned as a 'foodie' county. Asparagus & strawberries are grown nearby & the seafood on the coast is spectacular. There are award winning restaurants all within easy reach for those times when you want to spoil yourselves. The Bothy is close to public transport by buses which can be caught in the village. Mainline stations are in Norwich & other nearby towns. The Bothy is next to the A1067, which is busy at peak times and at Bank Holidays because it links Norwich to Fakenham. There is no street lighting, and there is very little traffic at night.
