ROOKERY NOOK: Closed until further notice

MAGPIE LODGE: The launch of Magpie Lodge, due in April 2020, has been put on hold for the time being due to the current health crisis, so we regret we are unable to take bookings at this time. Sadly this is in red for stop!

Situated on the Norfolk/Suffolk borders, on a country lane on the very edge of the pretty market town of Diss, Rookery Nook & Magpie Lodge provide an excellent base from which to explore East Anglia. Both face south onto beautiful individual  private gardens - a particular feature that guests enjoy and comment on.  Each property has its own private entrance and parking spaces, and individual garden areas that can be enjoyed privately.

Rookery Nook provides accommodation for 2 adults in a one bedroom single storey property - full details below.  Having been let out for several seasons, Rookery Nook has welcomed many guests and received dozens of 5* reviews on our HomeAway entry.

Magpie Lodge is a more extensive property, offering accommodation for 4 in two double bedrooms both with en suite. This property is newly available from Spring 2020. See detailed description below. 

Both properties provides ideal accommodation for your short break or holiday in the lovely Waveney Valley, with easy access to all parts of East Anglia.  Providing spacious, light and airy accommodation, with pretty gardens and sunny outside seating area, each property provides for all your needs with a home from home feel.   Each one is Tardis like, and far more spacious than they appear from the photos!

PET FRIENDLY:  Guests are welcome to bring their pets to stay with them, and very many do.  We have welcomed mainly dogs, but one cat and a budgie have also visited!  There are lots of walks in the area to be enjoyed.  We do have a pet policy, so please be sure to read it - see tab above.

​We have received 55+ top rate reviews from our guests at Rookery Nook, which can be viewed by clicking on the Review button below. We look forward to welcoming guests to Magpie Lodge in 2020 for the first time.
