Swaffham is a thriving and bustling Norfolk market town located in the fascinating and historic Brecks; 370 square miles of forest, heath and farmland. Strattons sits in a quiet, concealed yet central private close in the town, an ideal base from which to explore the Brecks, Norwich, King’s Lynn and the coast –if, that is, you can tear yourself away from the hotel with its luxurious tranquility and delicious food.

Snuggle up by the hotel fire with a bottle of red and your favourite magazine. Take a picnic from CoCoes café deli and explore Thetford forest. Climb 300 steps of Swaffham wind turbine and view miles of fabulous landscape.

Hunt for treasures at the weekly Saturday Market. Walk, run or cycle from the hotel through the beautiful Brecks countryside. Enjoy ‘good morning’ coffee at CoCoes café deli. Celebrate with friends and family, weddings; births; graduations; fond farewells; civilized hen and stag parties; any excuse parties! Be pampered next door at Cape Amethyst beauty salon.
