Honeybee Retreat

About the property

Tucked away in the peaceful village of Pentney, Honeybee Retreat is a lovingly handcrafted pod that sits prettily on a working Norfolk farm. This single-storey hideaway has been thoughtfully designed with couples and solo travellers in mind, offering a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort.

Step up into this cleverly designed pod, where charming star details crown the doorway. Inside, the studio-style layout makes brilliant use of space, with everything you need right at your fingertips. The well-equipped kitchenette features an induction hob and combi microwave/oven – perfect for whipping up romantic meals for two. Enjoy your morning coffee at the breakfast bar while taking in views of the surrounding countryside.

After a day of exploring, sink into the hot tub on the lawned area below your private deck. As evening falls, slip into the provided robes and slippers for extra comfort. The beautifully appointed shower room features a walk-in shower and heated towel rail, adding a touch of luxury to your countryside escape.

Come bedtime, the king-size bed promises a peaceful night’s sleep. One of the pod’s most magical features is its roof window – perfect for stargazing from the comfort of your bed. For entertainment, there’s a TV for cosy movie nights, though the stunning farm views might prove more captivating.

The location puts you perfectly between history and nature. The magnificent Oxburgh Estate and the majestic Norman keep at Castle Rising are within easy reach. The Old Whalebone Mill offers a fascinating glimpse into local history, while the surrounding countryside begs to be explored.

This three-night minimum stay retreat offers a truly unique escape (with check-ins available on Mondays and Fridays). While the pod doesn’t have WiFi, you can access the internet from the B&B breakfast room – though you might find disconnecting from the digital world adds to the charm of this rural haven.
