Perfect 4 Night Break
We've stayed in a nearby village several times before but the property owner sold up. We are a family of 5 (4 are 18 plus) so can struggle to find somewhere big enough. After much searching, we found Manningham House as an alternative but were still a bit nervous...we shouldn't have been! The house is lovely and spotless! If you are looking for somewhere quiet and secluded, the location is great too! Liz (the owner) was really helpful and communication was bang on. We 100% intend to go back.

Returning guest
We stayed in this property 2 years ago and decided to return as we wanted to visit Sandringham. The property was in fantastic condition and the on suite bathroom had been replaced since the previous visit which was a pleasant surprise. Overall a lovely peaceful place for a short break with a fantastic pub across the road.

Great house, well equipped, great location
Wonderful house equipped with everything you could want. Lovely and clean. Good comfortable beds. Nice garden and well used table tennis table in the big shed. The location in the village and near so many beaches in North Norfolk is perfect.

Local Historical Treasure
More than a home away from home. Very spacious, comfortable and clean. You feel as if you are getting a touch of local history in this lovely building. A dream home and it was great to read about the stages of development and the complete refurbishment in 1986. It was easy to get in touch with our host. Lots of little home comforts to get you settled in. A great way for us to explore the area thoroughly as well as visit five of the beaches nearby. The kids loved having different experiences at each one. We are all very happy with our stay.

In a lovely village with a great shop, this house was perfect for us. We had lots of room to spread out and it is very well equipped. We knew where we wanted to go during our stay so didn’t need the fantastic array of leaflets and information on the area

Five Friends Reunited
Manningham House provided all we could have wanted (and more) for a fabulous friends reunion. Just a short distance from the wonderful North Norfolk coast and with superb walks just around the corner, we ambled and caught up with each other's lives under sunny skies and the (sometimes bracing) sea air. The kitchen/dining room was a warm and cosy convivial space where we talked (and talked and talked!). Preparing our meals felt effortless Liz provides everything from Aga to table (apart from the food). Manningham House is truly first class. Liz could not have been more helpful prior to, and during, our stay. If you are looking for somewhere to explore North Norfolk based in a quiet village with a pub within staggering distance and a very well stocked local shop, Manningham House is the ideal place to be!

Perfect house for a Norfolk holiday!
Couldn't recommend Manningham House more! Wonderful location in North Norfolk in a delightful village with a great pub and local shop all in walking distances. The house itself was beautiful with very comfy bedding, a lovely spacious kitchen plus a great garden. Communication with Liz (host) was also excellent. Would definitely recommend this property for families and groups of friends.

A lovely family holiday!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Manningham house. The house was spotless and very well equipped. Communication with Liz, prior and also during our stay was excellent. Ringstead is a beautiful village, with a brilliant local store and a duck pond which our boys loved! Would highly recommend this accommodation. Great location to enable us to visit our favourite sights.

Well maintained and very comfortable house in quiet village setting
We loved this traditional Norfolk house, it is a well maintained, very well equipped and comfortable property in a quiet rural location and yet a 2 minute walk from the most amazingly well stocked village shop. We spent much of our time in the kitchen and dining area of the house with the homely warmth of the aga. The kitchen is so well equipped that we cooked every evening making the most of the facilities. The beds are comfy and main bedrooms spacious with quality curtains which keep out the light and keep the rooms warm. Although October we were able to lunch outside in the secluded garden. The house is in an ideal location to explore the surrounding areas, so much to visit and explore within a short driving distance. We would love to return sometime in the future.

Beautiful home
A lovely family home in a beautiful location. We’ve traveled to this area a lot with our young children and love being close to Thornton and Brancaster. The house was well equipped and safe for infants/younger children. The garden worked particularly well. Sadly the local pub isn’t that child friendly anymore so we drove to most places in the day and to eat (although apparently that may change again soon) Would definitely stay again. Beds particularly comfortable!

Family holiday at Manningham House
Our stay at Manningham House was for a family group of 6 adults (2 couples and 2 singles), so the set up of 2 double rooms and 2 single rooms was perfect for our stay. The property itself is beautiful, and exactly as described in the listing, with ample parking space for our 2 vehicles. The location of the property is perfect if you are looking for a quiet retreat, though you will need a car if you are looking to explore the beautiful areas of Norfolk. Communication with the owners was easy, and responses were very quick and informative. We had a very relaxed and enjoyable stay at Manningham House, and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Comfort in Ringstead
Second time we've been to Manningham House. It's really spacious, well appointed, well equipped, comfy beds, etc. The table tennis is a great distraction for the kids. Lovely kitchen to hang out in, dinner in the garden. 50 yards from the Gin Trap and 10 minutes to the coast. What more could you want?

An Exceptional Holiday Home From Home
I couldn't possibly do this home justice by the words I write here. You really must experience this beautiful home for yourself. However, I shall try.... The huge kitchen, complete with Island and large dining table, the separate TV lounge and reading rooms, the light bedrooms with both blinds and curtains to keep the light out in the mornings, the deep main bath, the excellent wi-fi, the Aga oven to help dry towels, the garden table, the garage with table tennis and badminton sets, the wonderfully quiet village that's only ten minutes' drive from Hunstanton and finally, the regular communication from Liz, the owner. All of these things contributed to making this or best family holiday ever and, praise Jesus, the weather was perfect too. This house has everything you need and more. Just enjoy it!

About the host

Hosted by elizabeth cooke

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Essex but we love spending time in Norfolk. Ringstead is that hidden gem: close to the beaches but just off the coast road. Children and families all love it!

Why they chose this property

Norfolk is simply stunning! The huge expanses of sandy beaches never cease to amaze us. In winter they offer bracing walks and in the height of summer holidays they can still feel remote. Norfolk is known for its huge skies, often portrayed by local artists and photographers. The pubs, the farm shops, the fish shops all keep us well fed during our stay and the car goes back home laden with goodies for the following week. Manningham House used to be our regular weekend bolt hole from London as it is only just over two hours by car. Having moved to the countryside we still enjoy our visits to the most beautiful coastline in the UK!

What makes this property unique

The village of Ringstead is perfectly located: only 5-10 minutes from the beaches and coast road but also in the tranquility of the countryside. It is well catered for with a shop, pub, playground, antiques centre and garden centre - good for browsing. We always come away with something we never knew we needed! For those wanting a quiet time, the back garden of Manningham House is a suntrap and many an afternoon is spent having a bbq and wandering across to the pub.
