About this property
The largest of three elegantly converted, luxury barns in the village of Little Massingham, with a celebrated gastro-pub, seven duck ponds, and village stores selling local produce only a short walk away, Red Stag Lodge combines opulent but cosy open-plan living with all the toys - a tennis court, pétanque court, sensational LED light-changing indoor swimming pool and sauna.
Nestled in the Hill Farm Massingham Estate, dating back to the 1880s, you will fall in love with the tame, hand-fed herd of beautiful breeding deer which roam around the property. With a wonderful view of the park and surrounding countryside, you can watch the deer from every window as they do their early evening “walk-by” on their way to drink at the pond before settling down for the evening. There are five big en-suite bedrooms with plenty of stylish communal areas and mood lighting and beautiful artwork, so that everybody can find their own space, making Red Stag Lodge the perfect get-away for a multi-generational family or friends gathering. Warm and cosy open-plan living with underfloor heating and a wood burning stove, it really is an ideal hideaway all year round.
A spacious kitchen with a centre island, vast handmade kitchen table and bespoke antler chandelier makes entertaining easy, while a cosy corner with low-lit lamps and a pair of leather armchairs plus a large 50” screen Smart television and ample seating for fourteen on huge comfortable sofas makes relaxing even easier!

Miss S
Amazing holiday rental. The accommodation was of a very high standard, the pool & sauna was a great addition, along with the surroundings of being on a deer farm and the tennis court. Would highly recommend and will hopefully return ourselves.

Beautiful surroundings, a spacious converted barn with everything we needed - it slept nine of us comfortably - wonderfully comfy beds. And a bonus was the presence of the deer which were a constant delight to watch. Our hosts were delightful and extremely helpful and welcoming. Really great general stores 10 minutes away by car which sold everything including amazing bread, and a fabulous pub restaurant nearby with really special food. We enjoyed the tennis court and boules court, (bring your own racquets and balls). Everyone from 14 - 80 years had a most enjoyable time.
