Grange Farm House, Thetford

Travellers the world over visiting the UK will have heard of Euston, London's main railway station serving the British Isles all points north. Conversely, a very tiny number will have heard of Euston, the charming little village located on the borders of Norfolk and Suffolk from which, many years ago, the rail terminus took its name. The story goes that one of the Dukes of Grafton - some time during the mid 1800's - sold the bit of land he owned in London to the Railway Company on the proviso that, if ever they turned it into a mainline station, then they must call it Euston, so-called after Euston Hall, the outstanding and beautiful stately residence, home to the Duke's of Grafton over several hundred years.

Today, just five minutes walk from the Hall, privately tucked away in the centre of the village sits The Grange - a most delightful, welcoming and impressive Georgian Farm House which provides all the trappings of a five star establishment. Guests can expect, lovingly prepared breakfast using only local produce: farm fresh eggs, locally smoked bacon and hand made sausages. Also evening meals and dinner parties can be arranged upon request.

Conveniently, Euston is close to many notable historic places and monuments, the nearest being Bury St Edmunds with its amazing cathedral and thousand year old Abbey ruins, it is a place not to be missed, especially given that it sports the smallest pub in the world called the "Nutshell" - hence the term 'In a nutshell'. A little further afield is Cambridge with its breathtaking architecture, lovely riverside walks, punting on the Cam and best restaurants and pubs to be found for miles.

After a day of trying out any of the above, it is always a joy to get home to the Grange for a fireside drink, long soak in a hot bath before coming down for a real homemade farm house supper 'experience' All this at an incomparably low price.
