Currently, most locations in Norfolk are in demand.
Due to the rise in demand for outdoor space, countryside living and the ability to work from home now Norfolk is a very popular choice for many relocators.
One area in particular that we've seen a surge of property enquiries for is Stoke Holy Cross.
It's easy to see why so many people want to live in this idyllic location, it's only four miles outside of Norwich and only one mile away from the A140 which means even though it feels secluded it's not. This makes it a perfect place for anyone who may have to do a bit of hybrid working, perhaps a few days working from home and a couple of days in the office.
Stoke Holy Cross which sits on the River Tas and has its own mill, famous for being the place where Colman’s mustard first started.
The mill sits on an ancient site possibly dating back to Roman times.
The original mill burnt down in 1744 and then rebuilt in 1747.
Today the mill is called The Stoke Mill and in 2013 it was sensitively restored, it's now the place to go for modern fine dining.
There's also the Wildebeest which was recently named in the top ten Tripadvisor fine dining list. The rustic-chic decor and the exquisite food makes for a fabulous dining experience.
The Wildebeest has its own history formerly known as The Red Lion and was the main village pub. In the 1920's the Red Lion used to hold horse dealers days where the locals and people from further afield would trade horses.
No one goes hungry with the Salamanca in Stoke Holy Cross, people travel to Stoke Holy Cross just to get their meat from the Salamanca farm shop. It's perfect for budding chefs as the Salamanca offers top quality products, many people won't buy their meat anywhere else, on top of that they give outstanding service.
Stoke Holy Cross is definitely a great location for foodies!
The pretty village is surrounded by stunning countryside perfect for walkers, runners, cyclists and families with children and dogs.
For equestrians, there's Pine Lodge School of Classical Equitation which is a national classical school specialising in classical equitation. Most of the Great Britain team, over the last decade, has trained and come from this school.
Stoke Holy Cross also has its own church which was rebuilt in 1879, but it managed to retain its 14th-century tower. Living in Norfolk you're never far from a church and just up the road in Poringland is another pretty one.
For the children, there's the Stoke Holy Cross Primary School, situated in the village and serves the children and families from the village itself, Dunston, Caistor St Edmund, Upper Stoke Holy Cross and Shotesham. It caters for children between the ages of 5 and 11 years of age and it also boasts ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted in 2007 and 2013.
