2BR Cosy Stay | Near Cathedral |Parking |Workspace

Welcome to Marlborough Rest, a serene retreat nestled in the heart of Norwich, thoughtfully managed by Ginger & Gold Ltd. This pristine home offers a harmonious blend of modern comforts and timeless charm, ensuring a memorable stay in this historic city.

We are a family-run corporate letting and serviced accommodation business who pride ourselves on offering the guest everything they need for an enjoyable stay whether it be for business or for pleasure.

We are very experienced and professional, the level of interaction is decided by you.

Any questions you may have, we pride ourselves in coming back to you within a short time :)

As super hosts, we are available as you need us, we love answering questions and providing recommendations and we have a brilliant house manual for those who prefer to explore for themselves.

You’ll have an ideal base if you are coming to the area for work or for a holiday with your partner to see the area. With all necessary home amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen, Free Parking and Coffee machine – all situated in central Norwich.

If you are looking for a place to catch a romantic sunset visit Sewell Park which is a 10-minute walk or if you are in the mood for a walk with amazing views we suggest Mousehold Heath which takes around 20 minutes to walk, but every minute of that is worth the views.

If you are looking for a close-by pub we suggest The Whalebone Freehouse. It has 2 bars, original features and exposed bricks, plus a terrace with a walled garden that you have to visit. It only takes 7 minutes on foot to get there.

If you want to use a fully equipped kitchen at Marlborough Rest you will need some groceries and for that, we suggest the closest shop go to Co-op Food or PJ's Convenience Store, which is a 4-minute walk from home that also has an ATM.

Parking:

Our property offers two convenient parking options. There is an off-street parking space at the rear of the property, best suited for a small vehicle, and we recommend parking diagonally for easier access. We also provide an on-street parking permit for one vehicle, allowing you to park directly outside the property.

The house is located in the Western part of Norwich and is within driving distance to the majority of restaurants, fresh markets, supermarkets.

This cosy house is located in the central area of Norwich with a 10 minutes walk to get to the city centre and quick access to the main transport routes such as the A47 if you do decide to explore Norfolk Broads.

If you are visiting with your friend or family we suggest you visit Mousehold Heath for the best sunsets in Norwich. It takes around 10 minutes to drive, but every minute of that is worth the view.

If you have decided to travel to the city centre by bus go to the “Bell Road” bus stop and take Bus (11B) that goes to Norwich City Centre. And after 7 min (5 stops) get out at “Upper King Street” (Stop CP).

If you are taking a train it takes 25 minutes to walk to the train station with the great views of the riverside walk, or you can take the same bus route to the city centre and then walk straight through the Prince of Wales Road for 8 minutes to get tot he trains station.

However, Norfolk is a big area, with many things to see and do. To make the most of your trip, we always recommend guests hire their own transport to see all Norfolk has to offer.

And one of the cheapest rates for car hire that we found is “Norwich Car Hire” - we suggest you book your car as soon as possible to make sure you do not miss the opportunity.
