Oozing character and hidden surprises, Dixie is a repurposed horse box set in a wonderful wild flowe
Oozing character and hidden surprises, Dixie is a repurposed horse box set in a wonderful wild flower meadow. Complete with a beautifully crafted bathroom, king-size bed and decking with views over the rolling countryside, it makes the most fantastic place for a relaxing break.
Dixie is made up of three parts; the main horsebox which is home to the living area, an undercover top deck attached to the horsebox and a separate bathroom. There are a set of steps heading up to the first floor decking where you are greeted by a set of french doors that lead inside to the living space. There is a fully-equipped kitchen with a fridge-freezer, four hob grill and oven and a large Belfast sink providing everything you need for cooking up a storm. There is a handcrafted yew slab with a couple of chairs, if you fancy dining inside; along with a wood burner sits opposite the kitchenette, stocked with logs to keep you toasty in the cooler evenings. To the rear of the lorry is a sofa and tucked neatly above, accessed by a ladder, is a king-size bed. Dixie is also complete with different lighting options, USB sockets and a Bluetooth sound system.
Either up a set of steps from the outside or from inside the horsebox through the hobbit door, you are led to the top deck which is undercover with a wonderful pig arc shelter roof. Here you can chill and watch the wildlife go by, or sit in the swinging chair with a good book.
Set to one side of the lorry is a large bathroom. The sink is its own work of art, crafted from a slab of yew with a stone sink held up by twisted ivy lengths. There is a large walk-in shower and a composting WC. On the other side of the lorry is a firepit area, with plenty of seating and BBQ griddle and equipment.

Additional Information:
Sorry, no dogs.
There is so much to do on your doorstep, with footpaths and cycle routes. There is a restaurant/deli in the village which is in walking distance called The Lemon and Rosemary Yard.
Very close is Reepham, a beautiful market town with 18th century houses and a market place, which is surrounded by stunning countryside between the Wensum and Bure Valleys. While you are ambling around, be sure to pop in to The Dial House, a special place for breakfasts, lunches and afternoon teas.
Aylsham is another traditional unspoilt market town. Aylsham's market place, also surrounded by fine 18th century houses, reflects the town’s prosperity from the cloth trade from that era. Famous for its linen and textiles in the 1300s, it went on to become a major wool and textile producing area. Today, the picturesque market place has markets on Mondays and Fridays, plus there are plenty of shops, tea-rooms and pubs. Aylsham is the northern terminus of the Bure Valley Railway, a narrow-gauge steam railway which winds its way through the countryside to Wroxham, gateway to the Norfolk Broads, where you can hire boats. The station also marks the start of the Bure Valley Walk, a walking and cycling route alongside the line. If you are visiting Aylsham during the August bank holiday, you can look forward to the annual Aylsham Country Show. The Weavers Way trail, from Aylsham to North Walsham, follows a disused railway line and is a fantastic off-road route for walking, cycling and horse riding.
The National Trust’s Blickling Hall, a sensational Jacobean house, with wonderful gardens and home to the Boleyn family from 1499 - 1505 is a short hop in the car. It is believed that Anne Boleyn’s ghost still roams the hall! The landscape, with its hedges and narrow tree-lined lanes, has changed little over the centuries and is quintessentially Norfolk. The Hall's grounds are surrounded by countryside, perfect for picnicking and exploring.
There are beaches a plenty a mere 35 minutes drive away: Overstrand is a pretty, sleepy coastal village just two miles south of its larger neighbour, Cromer, and during the Victorian era was known as 'the village of millionaires' and a particular favourite holiday destination for Sir Winston Churchill. Overstrand still retains its old fashioned seaside charm, and there is now a busy Cliff Top Café, popular with locals and visitors. The beach is sandy and if you fancy a walk along the beach or coastal path to Cromer, you can reward yourself at the end with a drink at the beachside Rocket House Cafe, while you watch the fisherman and tide come and go.
The family orientated traditional seaside town of Cromer has an award-winning pier, beautiful beaches with rock pools, cliffs and great sandy expanses, plus fabulous independent places to eat out in town. Becoming known amongst Norfolk's surfers as a hot spot, lessons and equipment hire can be booked at Glide Surf School. The Pier has a Pavillion Theatre, the only one of its kind in the country, which stages traditional variety shows and live music events. With plenty of carnivals, markets and festivals, there’s always something going on in and around Cromer.
Norwich is only 13 miles away and Felbrigg Hall National Trust estate, with its gorgeous gardens, grounds and stately home is a short journey in the car.
