About Birch Lodge

Located in the heart of Norfolk between the Wensum and Bure Valleys, this single-storey property is surrounded by open countryside – the perfect place to get away from it all. Stroll out from your door or hop on a bike to explore the tranquil surroundings or visit the market town of Reepham (2 miles) to shop or treat yourself to a meal at one of the many eateries.

Train enthusiasts will love the heritage Wensum and Bure Valley Railway (1.9 miles), while children will adore the Roarr! Dinosaur Adventure Park (4 miles).

The historic city of Norwich (12 miles) makes a wonderful day out with its medieval lanes, castle, two cathedrals, and independent shops, restaurants and pubs, and if the seaside is calling, the delights of the North Norfolk coast are 20 miles away. Step through the front door into a spacious open-plan living space with seating, dining area and fully equipped kitchen.

The comfortable sofas are the perfect place to unwind with a book or to watch a film on the smart TV, and the kitchen has an electric oven and hob, fridge with ice box and microwave, so you can prepare meals to share around the family dining table. Down the hall there are two bedrooms, one double with TV and patio doors leading outside, and one twin.

A shower room with WC completes the inside. If you wish to dine alfresco, take your pick of outdoor tables – one on the front patio looking across open fields or an enclosed patio out the back.

Here, you’ll also find a reclining chair, BBQ and hot tub to relax after a day’s adventuring. The lodge is half of a complex (larger parties can book both properties), which share a year-round tennis court and retro games room, perfect for kids big and small to let off steam!

Dinosaur Adventure Park - NR9 5JW
about 3 Miles
This fun family day out has been well planned and we think is certainly worth a visit.  New for 2010 is the PrimEvil at Dinosaur Adventure.  Other fun activities include the Dinosaur Trail, Arachnophobia, the Raptor Races and the adventure play area.  The secret animal garden is also popular.  You can play a role in wildlife conservation and sponsor an animal if you wish.  At the moment if you sign up for their newsletter there is a chance to win a family ticket.
Pensthorpe Nature Reserve & Gardens - NR21 0LN
about 9 Miles
if you and your family are interested in nature and wildlife then Pensthorpe Nature Reserve & Gardens is the perfect place for a day out. This beautiful area of national parkland is home to a huge range of common and rare birds from sparrows to Red Crowned Cranes and also has a red squirrel enclosure - part of a conservation programme and now home to a family of adorable squirrels. Other activities to enjoy at Pensthorpe include pond dipping and Landrover discovery tours. Pensthorpe also played host to BBC'S Springwatch in 2010.
Sheringham Park - NR26 8TL
about 13 Miles
The National Trust Sheringham Park in Norfolk was designed by Humphry Repton and the book of original designs can still be seen. The park has many attractions including a viewing tower and a gazebo with amazing coastal views, wildlife trails which young children will love and an exhibition barn where visitors can learn the history of the park.
Melsop Farm Park - NR20 3DT
about 14 Miles
We love this attraction in Scoulton, Norfolk with a great collection of animals.  Children and adults alike have the chance to get hands on with the animals in the special handling areas.  On rainy days there is always the indoor play area for the little ones and when it's time for a bite to eat the cafe on the farm is open all day selling drinks and snacks.  Hot food is available over lunch times.
Bishops Boats Seal Trips - NR23 1RY
about 14 Miles
This is a really unique attraction running daily seal watching trips from the middle of March right through to the end of October.  The experienced skippers will lead you out on one of the traditional wooden boats where you will have the chance to see both common and grey seals.  If you love animals then this is one attraction not to be missed! They also do some boat trips combined with guides on dry land such as seal watching combined with a visit to Blakeney Point Nature Reserve, owned by the National Trust.  We think this attraction is excellent value for money as they keep their admission prices low.
Bewilderwood - NR12 8JW
about 16 Miles
Bewilderwood is a fun day out for the whole family located in the Wroxham area of Norfolk.  This imaginative adventure park has won awards and we think kids especially will love the characters and the magical tree houses. You can even book your ticket online and beat the queues by visiting their website where you can also view video clips of the park. This place is also the setting for the book 'A Boggle at BeWILDerwood', by local children's author Tom Blofeld.  Parents are not left out either as you're encouraged to take part and play alongside your children.
Banham Zoo - NR16 2HE
about 21 Miles
This award winning wildlife attraction has much to offer both families and couples looking for a fun and educational day out.  You can discover a whole wild world of animals with over 1000 different animals from around the world. You will probably want to try and spend the whole day here so you don's miss out on anything.  Highlights include the amazing animals presentation, the birds of prey display and the feeding talks, all of which take place at set times of the day.  This attraction is fantastic value for money and highly recommended.  Their latest event is the Snow Leopard Club Naming Auction and there has recently been a baby giraffe born at the zoo.
