About Us
Magdalen House, is a Norfolk Brick and Flint cottage built in 1829 and retains many original features. It is situated in the former Anglo Saxon settlement of 'Buntings' and boasts a quiet environment, range of wildlife and rural setting. It is within 5 miles of Oxburgh Hall (National Trust), Gooderstone Water Gardens and the Iceni Village in the heart of West Norfolk, an area famed for its ancient churches, windmills and village signs. It is central for exploring the historic towns of King's Lynn, Swaffham, Ely, Norwich, Bury St. Edmunds and Cambridge, and for visiting Sandringham, Norfolk Lavender, Pensthorpe Waterfowl Park and Thetford Forest, amongst many other places of interest.
West Norfolk is an excellent area for cycling, bird watching, fishing and rambling. We can offer storage for cycles, and packed lunches can be provided on request. |  |

The garden at Magdalen House was created from scratch. There are many 'rooms' to be explored and sat in. Guests are invited to wander but need to know we have dogs who may join you, and therefore it is vital that all gates remain shut. If you have the urge to 'weed', please feel free.
Overall, our plot is 2.8 acres, with paddocks containing our Carriage driving horses, Bobby D and Del Boy.
Enquiries about Carriage rides, Pub drives, and 'Groom Days' are welcome, at extra costs.
