Washingford House

Paris made a special gluten free cake for our ill friend who cancelled. We ate the delicious orange cake and slices were posted to our absent friend. Paris cooked us meals and breakfasts were either in the kitchen or in the magnificent lounge complete with comfy settees and medieval fireplace. Rooms were homely furnished and a quirky timetable ensured we all had plenty of hot water. Each afternoon, tea & home made cookies appeared & we chatted together. Nothing was too much trouble. Norwich, the Broads, Cley , Flixton Aviation museum, Southwold were good day trips. We left as friends.

We had a lovely stay at Washingford House and under Paris’s incredible hospitality felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Our rooms were very comfortable, the house, gardens and tennis court are stunning, and Paris gave a superb breakfast with her excellent cooking. Adults, children and dog were all very happy and felt like part of the family throughout our stay! Washingford House is well positioned for the broads, the great city of Norwich, and we also spent a day up on the Norfolk coast. There are excellent walks from the house too. Overall a very pleasant experience indeed.

Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely house. Everything was perfect and we felt part of the family for a few precious days. We enjoyed your scrummy browwnies on the way to Sandringham for a brief stop as we headed home.

Such a fantastic weekend away! On arrival we were greeted with homemade shortbread and tea on the terrace whilst we gazed over the beautiful grounds. The house is like a stately home - it’s enormous, tastefully decorated and hosts Paris and Nigel aren’t a little bit precious about it. They gave their time generously and offered plenty of local information which saved us time when you are only staying a few days. Beds at Washingford House are very comfortable and breakfasts cooked by Paris, ably assisted by Sous Chef Nigel, are hearty and delicious. Wished we could have stayed longer.
