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 in10 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 £2,850.
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. If you’d like to kit out a hamper and stomp a divot, the Langley Abbey Estate is nearby, with its brilliant polo days.
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
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.
