Occupying a quiet position, a stone’s throw from the Lime Tree Boulevard leading into the private parkland, Gatehouse North is one of the two gatehouses that framed the original entrance to Worstead Park. Guests are invited to enjoy Worstead Park, a 300-acre park and woodland to explore. This is a natural habitat rich with bird and wildlife, with roaming red deer and excellent bird watching opportunities. There are tremendous circular cycling routes via Dilham Canal and a wealth of opportunity for walking direct from the doorstep, so do remember to pack your walking boots. The woodland is rich with wildlife and bird life, so be sure to bring your binoculars. Red deer, otters, herons, a family of swans and kingfishers can all be viewed in their natural habitat.

Gatehouse North has been beautifully refurbished to offer exceptional comfort for discerning holiday guests. Carefully restored retaining all its charm and character, now provides modern-day lifestyle luxuries. There is a private garden on two sides, having a large patio equipped with garden furniture and a BBQ for al fresco dining, and secluded rear garden. Beyond the immediate garden lies the beautiful parklands with links to public footpaths and bridal ways including Weavers Way, winding 61 miles through the North Norfolk countryside, with Dilham canal and the famous Norfolk Broads within walking distance. One of the best ways to enjoy the estate is on horseback, and the equestrian centre by the park entrance is where you can hire a horse for the day or house your own horse, with a variety of livery options available. The centre is also registered with Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) charity.
