About this property
Nestled on the rural outskirts of Filby, a quaint village just a short drive from Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, you will find the charming, three-bedroom holiday home of Oak Tree House, 1 Homestead Gardens. With off-road parking for one car, an enclosed surrounding garden with furniture, and a great location close to a nearby pub and Post Office, this wonderful property welcomes a family or group of six seeking a relaxing, self-catered escape in beautiful East Anglia. Park up outside your lovely new home-from-home, taking a moment to breathe in views of your tranquil countryside surroundings, before you head indoors to make yourself a cup of tea. Inside, you will find a collection of immaculate, well-appointed living spaces, including an inviting sitting room complete with plush seating and a sleek, wall-mounted Smart TV, an impressive kitchen/diner featuring a dining table for six and contemporary integrated appliances, the true social hub of the home where delicious meals can be savoured and plans can be made. When the sun is shining or the evenings cool, head outdoors with a glass of wine to kick back and relax in the garden, catching up with loved ones as the day rolls into night and the starry night sky begins to appear overhead. When sleep finally calls, head to the bathroom to refresh on your way to settling in for a much-needed rest in one of the three bedrooms, which include a first-floor king-size with a Smart TV and accompanying en-suite shower. If you can tear yourself from your peaceful new dwelling, lace up your boots and head out to explore Filby and the surrounding areas. Start your day with a walk into Filby centre to stock up on essentials at the post office. During your stay, be sure to pay a visit to the nearby Thrigby Hall Wildlife Gardens, where you and the group can experience exotic wildlife up close or even embark on a tree top or tunnel walk. For a full day out, jump in the car and head east towards the coast, stopping by the historic sites of Caister Castle and the Caister Roman Fort on your way into Caister-on-Sea. Referred to as ‘Caister’ by locals, this bustling seaside resort, home to several pubs and restaurants, invites visitors to enjoy a round at the Great Yarmouth & Caister Golf Club, spend a day enjoying live sports at the Great Yarmouth Racecourse or Yarmouth Stadium, or even delight with an afternoon of picnicking and sunbathing upon the golden sands of Caister-On-Sea Beach. Remember to treat yourself at the on site beauty salon run by the owners daughter, that offers a range of beauty treatments.

It was only four nights but we really appreciated the comprehensive facilities provided and we couldn't think of anything else that the hosts could add to enhance the experience. The property is exactly as described on the site. The photos of the house are also accurate. We cycled from Oak Tree House along a network of quiet country lanes. As a bonus, we were able to securely store our bikes in the garage. The Welcome basket was also gratefully appreciated!
