GREAT MASSINGHAM
One of Norfolk’s most attractive villages, Great Massingham enjoys a thriving community and rural village life, whilst nestled between the busy market towns of King’s Lynn and Fakenham. There is a local primary school, pre-school, a village shop and post office, and The Cartshed Tea Room. The Dabbling Duck is a popular pub within the village, which offers an excellent restaurant alongside a Bed and Breakfast and is run by a local husband and wife team.
Multiple large ponds can be found throughout the village, which has won many awards such as ‘CPRE Community Open Spaces award and several ‘EDP Pride in Norfolk’ awards. Opposite the impressive village green is St Mary’s church, which has been a focal point of the village for hundreds of years. The magnificent 13th century porch was once used as a school room and is thought to have been where Sir Robert Walpole, England’s first prime minister in 1720, was educated as a young boy.
In the heart of Great Massingham is the Village Hall, which was refurbished in 2019, and hosts many activities and clubs such as tennis, bowls, table tennis, billiards, snooker and more. There’s also a film and quiz night held here each month.
If you’re looking for a quieter life with beautiful countryside walks, whilst remaining close to amenities, then Great Massingham is certainly one to explore.
