Yet, it doesn't matter how much you might have fallen in love with our unique place, there's always a question about accommodation. From suggesting places to your far-flung guests to having a boutique bridal suite to spend your first night as bonafide soulmates.
So without further ado, here is a selection of dreamy accommodation to consider when you inevitably fall in love with our wedding venue.

Barely a confetti throw from the Garden Pavilion is our very own Holly Lodge, a gorgeous period property dating back as far back as the 13th Century. It's a place littered with tradition, beauty, fruit orchards, and moments of wow, complete with a stunning bridal suite, not to mention the beautifully converted stable block that's able to sleep 12 guests. It's no wonder this place - once upon a time - was used as a stopover for pilgrims making their way to the shrines at Little Walsingham. It really is something very special indeed.

There are plenty of boutique hotels in Norfolk, but few do understated luxury quite like The Harper. Think warm oak floors, original artwork adorning the walls, four poster beds of the modern variety standing loud and proud in each bedroom, huge high-spec bathrooms that are perfect for pre-wedding pampering sessions, Negronis in the fridge and a steam room, sauna, jacuzzi and pool for good measure. This really is one of our favourite places in North Norfolk.
