About this property
The Old Fire Station - self contained studio apartment.
The Old Fire Station is charming, quaint and quirky. The building has had a varied life ! Originally built to house the town Fire Pump - later converted to the town conveniences !! and later used as a store.
It is strategically placed in the heart of the town, amid all the hustle and bustle.
The space is fully equipped with everything that you would need for a 'break away'.
You will have the use of the whole building and a small - but private - outside seating area.
Although the building is situated in the heart of the town -it is well insulated against the hustle and bustle. It is quite quirky staying in the old town Fire Station !

Why they chose this property
It is quite quirky staying in the old town Fire Station ! Brandon is a small market town. Famous for its Flint Knapping.
The local Country Park has wonderful walking and little coffee shop.
A few miles away you can find High Lodge - a wonderful exciting day out in Thetford Forest. If you are feeling really fit try out Go Ape - I am told its really good fun but exhausting !
Brandon is well placed and equal distance to Kings Lynn. Ipswich and Norwich. Norwich is my local City where you can find everything you would want - everything !
Bury St Edmunds is a thriving local market town with great independent shops and Abbey ruins.
For the Dads Army fans - you can visit the museum in Thetford - many famous episodes were filmed in the surrounding areas.
The fantastic north Norfolk coast is about one hour from your accommodation - wonderful seascapes - seals - Sandringham - all the joys of Norfolk.
What else can I say ? - come and visit us.

What makes this property unique
This little apartment feels like 'home from home'. It is modern yet comfortable with a sofa bed if you have little ones travelling with you.
The dining area comfortably seats a couple for a romantic evening meal.
The bathroom has plenty of hot water and a fully tiled wet room - giving you extra space !
The bed is a normal size double bed with feather duvet and pillows. If you need a polyester pillow please bring your favourite from home.
The outside area has a small eating area and smoking shelter. Please make sure that you smoke outside in the shelter and all your butts are removed and taken with you when you leave. Its a bit disgusting to ask my cleaners to clear up after smokers and my next guests do not want to find soggy butts in the garden !!! Thank you for your co operation with this.
We do like a quirky garden which we hope you will enjoy but all areas can be very slippery when wet and some surfaces are very uneven. Please take care.
I hope that all sounds very enticing !
