Langley Grange
About Langley Grange
Langley Grange is a late Georgian country house near the Norfolk Broads. It’s suitable for holidays and celebrations with family and friends.
The house sleeps up to 21 guests in 10 bedrooms. Three of the bedrooms are en-suite (1 has an adjacent shower room) and there are three other bathrooms. One of the bedrooms is on the ground floor, with a shower room and loo just next door.
Downstairs, there is a large, modern kitchen, with a seating area and a conservatory that seats up to 22 on a beautifully long table. There is also a comfortable drawing room with an open fire, a snooker room and two further reception rooms. There’s a pretty indoor swimming pool, bedecked with Venetian frescoes, and a shower room.
Langley has lots of outdoor space for summer barbecues and admiring the views. There’s an all-weather tennis court and a second swimming pool, for summer days when bathing outside is a complete treat. Three-day mid-week stays are available from £2,950.
Edmund’s Choice of Extraordinary Feature
“One of the most striking things about Langley Grange is its quiet friendliness. The house was recently restored with guests in mind, and it’s a place you can really kick-back, relax and have fun.”
About The Location
Langley Grange is 15 minutes’ drive from Norwich. Norwich is served by the Great Eastern Train Line, running main-line trains from London. The nearest shops to the house are within Loddon, a pretty little market town that lies on the boundary of the Norfolk Broads.
Should you wish to visit the sea, Great Yarmouth is about half an hour’s drive.
Things To Do
Norwich itself is worth a day-trip, as it has a cathedral, castle and lots of shops. Should you wish to mess about on the river, you can hire a boat from the wharf at Loddon, and push off for a picnic.
If you’d like a day at the beach, Southwold is within a 40 minutes’ drive, as are several country houses to visit, and Pleasurewood Hills, a small theme park.
House History
An archaeological excavation at Langley Grange in 2001 revealed a pit containing flint and pottery debris which can be dated to between BC 3900 and BC 2900. This discovery makes an important addition to the map of Neolithic Norfolk. ‘Neolithic’ or ‘the New Stone Age’ describes the period from about BC 4500 to BC 2000 when farming started to become the main source of food. When you come to Langley Grange you can see a display case describing the excavation and exhibiting some of the finds.

Reviews
I really can't recommend Langley Grange highly enough. After Covid messed up my original booking in 2020 for my 50th birthday, it was all moved to a year later. David patiently and promptly answered my MANY questions over the last several months and was extremely accommodating with a few requests. The house itself is huge and just beautiful, the many artifacts, artworks and small touches make it feel like a much-loved home. Having an indoor as well as outdoor pool is sheer luxury and invaluable for the mixed weather we had. My only disappointment is that we were there for a long weekend, which is much too short to fully enjoy the many facilities and gorgeous grounds. A group of us are looking at returning for a full week in 2022 for no particular reason, just to relax and enjoy this lovely place!
We have recently spent a wonderful stay at Langley Grange. It is a superb house, with kitchen and reception rooms that work well together, lots of space and first class facilities. The bedrooms and bathrooms vary, but are all of a good size. We would not fault a single thing - everything is in excellent condition and the estate is very well kept. I cannot recommend a stay here highly enough, you will be well looked after by David the house manager and his team.
Langley Grange is a fantastic house. The indoor/outdoor pools gave us flexibility when the weather wasn't great and the tennis court, lawn games, pool table, table tennis and board games kept us entertained through our stay. The house is well situated with country walks easily accessible and some great pubs just a mile walk away (we'd recommend the White Horse's beer garden in Loddon). It was also easy to get to the coast for a day out. The rooms were all clean, comfortable and set up to our group's requirements. Check in and check out was extremely easy. We'd strongly recommend this holiday house!
Our second lockdown stay as a family of five, and we can only agree with the other reviews that Langley Grange is an amazing holiday house. The house is spectacular, with fantastic facilities and plenty of space throughout. The indoor pool in particular is excellent, and we hope to one day return in the summer to make use of the outdoor version. The grounds are extensive, beautiful and very well maintained, including a picturesque tennis court. The service from David and the team has always been top notch and the welcome warm. A wonderful time was had by all and we have already booked to come back at a time when we are hopefully allowed to fill this gorgeous home.
Wonderful 10 day stay at Langley Grange despite drastic reduction in numbers ! Real antidote & escape from todays world . Langley Grange lends itself to easy everyday living with extensive gardens and grounds full of nature . Large cozy family kitchen with Aga, roaring log fires in living rooms & plenty of space for those who need to 'work' from home. Grandparents , parents and grandson ( 6months ) all made full use of amazing pool as well as enjoying relaxing poolside massages ( local mobile therapist ) Villages of Chedgrave & Loddon very friendly providing everything you might need so easy to keep socialising to the minimum . Hosts extremely accommodating & flexible during 'rollercoaster ' weeks and months prior to visit helping us adjust / rearrange in order to fit in with all regulations . Although Langley Grange can accommodate many more the six of us felt very comfortable and soon spread ourselves out ! Hoping we can return in full force one day !
Amazing house! Service from David and the team was superb and the house was even better! Facilities were spot on, the pools are incredibly well maintained and made for a brilliant weekend. We will be coming back for sure.
If your considering booking Langley just do it !!!!! We used this property to celebrate our wedding staying here with 18 guests ( With ceremony in Norwich) It was fabulous everything you could need to feel special the pools ,tennis courts Even the wonderful Arga makes cooking breakfast feel magical The owners also are lovely met us on time and was on hand if any problems ( not that there was) Our family are already asking when can we go back Felt privileged to have stayed in a property with such history wonderful wonderful wonderful
Fantastic house in beautiful surroundings with an abundance of amenities ,the indoor pool was an absolute joy, we had a fantastic break and only wished we could have stayed longer. A wonderful way to mark a special occasion or just spend family time together, our hosts were a delight to deal with very friendly and helpful.
What an amazing stay. It felt like our own little private resort. Lovely grounds, 2 beautiful pools, a newly laid tennis court. Large bedrooms and great communal spaces. Is better than the images suggest.
When we arrived we couldn't believe how lovely Langley Grange really is. The whole setting is truly getting away from it all. You have everything you need here and we had so much fun and family time. It took a few days to find our way round without getting lost. We enjoyed walks in the garden, down the quiet country lanes, a few bike rides and of course swimming, rounders, hide and seek. The house is picture perfect with plenty of room for everyone and space away for peace if needed. As soon as we arrived home we booked again for next year and we can't wait !
An amazing place to stay, highly recommend
Had a brilliant weekend spent in brilliant company. Facilities are brilliant, its clean and tidy and the whole house has a welcoming feeling. Would definitely recommend
We wish we could come every weekend. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and Langley had been recommended by two of our friends, who had both been there with their family’s,one of them twice. As another reviewer commented,the look of pleasure on the faces of our family as we were shown around,confirmed our good choice. From the ages of 18monthes to 78 years we had a memorable weekend. All our needs and more catered for.Comfortable clean space, Atmosphere,open fires,decor,fabulous kitchen area,comfortable beds.The toy box ,dressing up box,so so much. Wow ,did we all enjoy the swimming pool,we had great fun everywhere. The catering company recommended ,also made our weekend. Fabulous Sunday roast dinner. Thank you to Mrs Syms for originally letting us view the house,and the warm welcome from Liam. I do hope we will visit again. Teresa ,Mick and the rest of the Gibbs family.
May I say on behalf of my wife and family how much we thoroughly enjoyed our recent three days at Langley Grange. It was, for us, a milestone weekend with a diamond wedding and an 80th birthday to celebrate. We could not have wished for a more appropriate venue. The look on our children and grandchildren’s faces as they explored the delightful house on arrival was proof enough from the word go that this was the right venue. We particularly appreciated the splendid state of the decor and the smartness and cleanliness of the entire building which in tum engendered in the whole family the feeling that this was a cared for family home, we must keep it that way. I would like to add my appreciation of Janet and Gwilym who welcomed us and then left us to our own devices, but with the assurances that they were there if needed. The unanimous feeling among the family seemed to be: "Wonderful, when can we come again?" That is for them to decide but I have a feeling we will be in touch.
