The Old Chequers is an impressive holiday home sleeping up to 14 people in six bedrooms with large reception rooms, an outdoor hot tub, and a river flowing through the private garden. The former village pub is in South Creake near Fakenham, a short stroll from The Ostrich Inn. It dates back some 300 years and has been completely refurbished, retaining the period charm and warmth of centuries of hospitality to combine with contemporary features and comforts. It's an excellent choice for self-catering holidays with extended family and friends in North Norfolk. Our newly added games room provides an excellent entertainment space, where guests can enjoy a game of pool while watching sports on TV.
South Creake is a friendly community in a great location with excellent access to the coast, countryside and popular attractions. To give you an idea of how central the house is, you're six miles from Burnham Market and Fakenham, eight miles from Holkham Beach and Wells-next-the-Sea, 15 miles from Hunstanton, 23 miles from Sheringham, and around an hour's drive from Norwich. You can choose from dozens of beaches, go walking along the coast or through the countryside, and eat, drink, and shop around historic market towns and picturesque villages. Local attractions include Holkham Hall, Houghton Hall, beWILDerwood, Norfolk Lavender, and Sandringham Royal Estate. You can visit the ancient ruins of Creake Abbey, have fun at an Escape Room and an axe-throwing range, admire the birds and the beauty of Sculthorpe Moor Nature Reserve and Blakeney Point, and take a journey on the Poppy Line of the North Norfolk Railway.
Guests who stay at The Old Chequers love that they can laze around the house, enjoy relaxed barbecues or picnics by the stream in the garden, and soak their stress away in the outdoor hot tub. There is also tennis and a children's play area nearby. The owners know the first thing you want to do when you arrive is drop your bags and grab a drink, which is why they provide a welcome hamper complete with goodies that include coffee, tea, milk, cookies, and a bottle of wine. It feels like a private hotel all to yourself with added self-catering facilities. You'll find a cosy bathrobe in your bedroom and all the little extras that elevate a holiday rental to the next level.
Whether you're here for a week or a long weekend, your stay at The Old Chequers will be one you'll be happy to repeat in any season. It's perfect for all ages and has successfully hosted hen weekends, wedding guests, milestone birthdays, and family reunions.
