<p>Just a short drive from Norwich, <a href="https://norfolk.muddystilettos.co.uk/little-black-book/directory/little-black-book-directory-park-farm-hotel-hethersett/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Park Farm Hotel &amp; Leisure</a> is the perfect spot to live out your Lady of the Manor dreams. With a charming Georgian main house, a renovated Norfolk barn, and private lodges set in landscaped gardens, there are 52 individually styled rooms ready for a luxe staycation.</p>



<p>Indulgence is practically mandatory here: think a spa with sauna, steam room, hydrotherapy bath and cheekily named massages (‘I’ll Be Back’ anyone?), plus a pool and gym for the more energetic. When it’s time to eat or drink, Helene’s Bar, the sunny conservatory, and AA Rosette-awarded Season’s Restaurant have you covered &#8211; the kind of country-house luxury that even Lady Whistledown would approve of.</p>

<p>Nestled in the heart of the North Norfolk coast, Morston Hall is country-house glamour meets Michelin-starred dining.

<p>Set in eight acres of lush meadows with stunning frontage onto the River Bure, the Muddy Award-winning Norfolk Mead Hotel is Georgian country house perfection. Stroll the grounds, watch longboats drift past, and imagine yourself promenading with a Duke before retreating to one of 17 elegantly appointed rooms – two even come with private hot tubs for ultimate indulgence.</p>



<p>Afternoon tea here is serious business, whether in the drawing rooms, the walled garden, or picnic-style aboard a boat cruising the Broads. Homemade scones, Norfolk strawberry jam, clotted cream, and secret-recipe brownies make it impossible not to linger, and the spa – complete with the UK’s first beer spa – ensures your stay is as indulgent as any <em>Bridgerton</em> affair.</p>
