Norwood Park Landhaus

Norwood Park is an exclusive private country estate in Southwell, Nottinghamshire. Today, we find the House restored to its original grandeur while dramatically fusing the styles of the old with the new. Our sweeping staircases, elegant rooms, gorgeous grounds, sumptuous bar, and more than a few hints of eccentric whimsy throughout, make Norwood Park a unique and cherished Country House Home.

The space
Norwood Park is normally booked out over summer with wedding parties. However, as a result of the current restrictions on weddings, we find our diary has been emptied for the first time since we started hosting events twenty years ago. At this point, we are only releasing the months of July and August for booking, although some weeks in early September may become available too.

While we are new to Airbnb, you can find reviews for Norwood Park Country House on Google - just look us up!

Key design pieces sit alongside rooms designed for togetherness; think languid breakfasts in the orangery, games room gatherings and card playing evenings amidst grandiose décor. There’s also space for self if a little 'you time' is desired; from the zen Orangery to book reading with a garden view. Designed with relaxation in mind, Norwood Park boasts 12 large bedrooms. Each bedroom hosts a distinctive look and feel, from carved four-poster beds to spacious suites replete with a gold emperor bed.

Complete with a lake, golf course, and cricket ground, summer days can be spent in a hive of activity or a languid leisurely state. Keen horticulturalists will love the resident oak trees, weeping willows and blooms of rhododendron. While children explore the secret gardens, apple orchards or Grecian Temple on the Hill, parents can fire up the bbq or simply make the most of the peace and quiet from your garden vantage point.

Communal Inside Space
With a huge Dining Room (seating 26), Drawing Room and Morning Room there is plenty of space for guests to come together or separate into different groups. With the added benefit of the Bramley Bar and adjacent Arches, sharing a post-dinner drink has never felt more decadent. The tastefully designed Orangery is a lovely space to enjoy the sun, while the large combined Kitchen Diner, with AGA and gas hob offers cooks the chance to get creative, with or without an audience.

Guest access
Your booking at Norwood Park is exclusive and you will be the only group staying on site. Some bedrooms (not listed here) and the Gallery (where we hold wedding receptions) will all be closed and locked for the duration of your stay. The commercial kitchen will also be locked, although should you book private catered dining via our onsite Manager, this is the kitchen they will use and not the domestic kitchen you will be occupying. Should your group be larger than 26, we can discuss opening up additional bedrooms for a further charge.
