Characterful town house on Elm Hill

Situated on Norwich's historic Elm Hill, this luxurious townhouse offers the perfect blend of comfort, contemporary design and character. Its quirky interior reflects its 500 year old life as a weavers house, now updated for modern city living. It backs onto a park and river walks. Dogs are welcome! There are two double bedrooms and a sofa-bed is available upon request. We are sorry but the staircases and uneven floors make it unsuitable for young children or those with limited mobility.

All about Norwich

Norwich is a city with an overwhelming historic tradition fused with an excitable student scene. It’s one of the best preserved medieval cities in Europe, filled with quaint meandering alleyways and featuring a staggering cathedral, a stunning Norman castle, and around 1,500 historic buildings. But it also has a vibrant market and nightlife scene, with an inn for every day of the year and a different church to repent in afterwards. Known as the “City of Stories,” it was the United Kingdom’s first UNESCO City of Literature and has a lively arts scene, plus a plethora of independent bookshops and festivals. The city sits on the doorstep of the Norfolk Broads, the United Kingdom’s largest nationally protected wetland, so you can easily combine a laid-back city break with an exploration of some of England’s finest countryside.

What are the top things to do in Norwich?

Norwich Cathedral

You really can’t miss Norwich Cathedral. It’s everywhere. This being one of the flatter parts of the United Kingdom, the 315-foot-tall spire of this amazing edifice, completed in 1145, dominates the landscape. Set in 44 acres of beautiful tranquil grounds, it is a glorious place to spend some time. And there’s plenty to see and do around the building, including temporary art and science exhibits, a cafe, and music concerts.

Norwich Castle

Built by the Normans as a royal palace 900 years ago and completed by 1121, this imposing structure eventually became the city’s jail. Now it’s an acclaimed museum and art gallery, featuring galleries dedicated to archaeology, natural history, and fine, decorative, and contemporary art. Highlights include Roman artefacts and a rare (stuffed) specimen of the extinct great auk.

Plantation Garden

It’s hard to believe that this little oasis of calm is right in the city centre. This 3-acre garden was built over a hundred years ago in an abandoned chalk quarry. After World War II it was abandoned and overgrown, but a team of volunteers has lovingly brought it back to life. As well as beautiful plants and flowers, it features Victorian follies and fountains plus hosts music events throughout the year.
