Just returned from a weekend break here. Amazing gem in Norfolk, 5* well deserved! Immaculately clean cabins with such attention to detail, props, photo opportunities, local recommendations and the little touches of homemade bread and jam all make it so special! Hank and his wife are great hosts, nothing is too much trouble. Looking forward to seeing the saloon all finished, no doubt it will be just as amazing as the rest of it. Would highly recommend a stay here!

What an amazing experience Hanks Ranch is!! From arrival, we received a warm greeting and some homemade treats and were shown to our cabins for the weekend. We stayed in the jail, and had family stay in the chapel. Each cabin had its own unique vibe with so many small details added in - you can really feel the love and passion that was put into the making of each cabin. Having access to the fire pit just added an extra layer to the trip. Being able to cook dinner over a campfire was the cherry on top. I cannot recommend Hanks Ranch enough - we are already looking for free dates to come back again!!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your fantastic review! 🤠 It was an absolute pleasure having you and your family stay with us, and we’re so pleased you enjoyed both The Jail and The Church (Chapel) and all the little details that make each cabin unique. We love that you made the most of the fire pit too — there’s something rather special about cooking dinner over the flames and then settling down under the Norfolk sky. 🔥✨ We put a lot of love, time and passion into creating Hank’s Ranch, so hearing that you could feel that in the cabins really means a lot to us. And the best bit… you’re already looking for dates to come back! We’ll be delighted to welcome you all back for another Wild West adventure. 🤠 Thank you again for choosing Hank’s Ranch Hank and Sarah

This place is nothing short of wonderful. Truly. Hank is kind and super helpful. The accommodation is comfortable, cosy and such fun!!! The attention to detail is second to none! We absolutely look forward to a return visit to have a drink in the saloon bar and a soak in the wood fired warm and lively tin tub bath while looking out over the stunning Norfolk countryside. Thanks for having us. We’ll be back!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Connie, for such a wonderful review! 🤠❤️ It really means the world to us to hear that you found Hank’s Ranch comfortable, cosy, fun and relaxing — and we’re especially pleased that you noticed the attention to detail. We’ve put so much into creating a place that feels like so much more than glamping, so hearing you describe it as “next level entirely” is incredibly special. It was an absolute pleasure having you both stay, and we’re delighted to hear you’re already looking forward to coming back. The good news is that Lou’s Saloon is now almost ready, so you’ll have to return for that drink! 🍻 And of course, there’ll be a warm, wood-fired tin tub waiting for you, with those Norfolk views. Thank you again for choosing Hank’s Ranch. We’ll look forward to welcoming you back for your next Wild West adventure! Hank and Sarah

Such an amazing place. Fantastic theme with exceptional attention detail. Hank and Sarah were incredible hosts and literally nothing was too much trouble. They baked us some fresh bread and bought it over while it was still really warm. They were very accommodating and literally couldn’t do enough for us. I highly recommend this place to anyone this place is ideal for birthday celebrations, Anniversary or a hen/stag do

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Kaeti, for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review.

My partner and I had a lovely relaxing weekend at Hanks Ranch. Hank was very welcoming and had great recommendations of walks near the ranch and a nice local pub to go to. We had cozy nights next to the fire pit with smoores and good conversation. We treated ourselves with booking the hot tub which was a lovely experience. Thanks Hank and Sarah for a wonderful weekend!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Charli, for your lovely review. We’re so pleased you both had a relaxing weekend with us. It sounds like you made the most of everything the Ranch has to offer – from exploring the local walks and visiting the village pub to enjoying cosy evenings around the fire pit with s’mores. Adding the wood-fired hot tub is always a special treat, and we’re delighted you enjoyed the experience. Thank you for choosing to spend your weekend with us and for your kind words. We hope to welcome you back to the Ranch for another peaceful Wild West escape soon. Hank & Sarah 🤠

What an amazing place! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely relaxed. The cabins are beautiful, comfortable, and equipped with everything you could need. The views are breathtaking, and there is so much to enjoy, from roping and horseshoe tossing to soaking in the hot tub or simply sitting on the porch and taking in the peace and quiet. Hank and Sarah were fantastic hosts and went above and beyond to make our stay special. Nothing was too much trouble. We were even treated to some homemade bread, which was absolutely delicious and such a lovely personal touch. We honestly didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to come back and experience the saloon bar next time. Thank you to the Hanks Ranch team for such a memorable stay! 🤠⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Tamara, for such an amazing review. We’re delighted to hear you felt relaxed from the moment you arrived—that’s exactly the experience we hope every guest has. It means so much to know you enjoyed the cabins, the peaceful surroundings, and all the little Wild West activities, from horseshoe tossing to unwinding in the wood-fired hot tub. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the fresh homemade bread too. It’s one of our favourite traditions, and we’re glad it added a special touch to your stay. Thank you for your kind words about our hospitality. It was a real pleasure having you stay with us, and we’re thrilled that Hank’s Ranch has given you such wonderful memories. We can’t wait to welcome you back to experience the saloon when it’s open—we’re sure you’re going to love it! Until next time, take care, and thank you again for choosing Hank’s Ranch.

If you are looking for a hen weekend destination that is truly in a league of its own, Hank’s Ranch is the ultimate hidden gem. I booked the entire ranch for my celebrations and stayed in the stunning Chapel—it was absolute perfection. There are three bespoke cabins to choose from, each designed with a fabulous, unique flair. They were completely immaculate, with beds so comfortable you’ll never want to leave. Located in the serene Norfolk countryside, the ranch offers views over the fields that are simply to die for. Hank is the quintessential host, adding those chic, thoughtful touches like chilled milk, butter, and chocolates in the fridge—he even surprised us all with ice creams in the sunshine! We spent our days basking in the gorgeous weather and relaxing in the wood-fired tub at the bathhouse, which felt like a private spa retreat. The entertainment was top-tier; we hired a rodeo bull for some high-energy evening fun, followed by a cozy night under the stars. Hank prepared a cowboy stew for us over the open fire which was utterly delicious (we even snagged some to take home!), followed by toasted s'mores by the campfire. Hank’s hospitality is unmatched; he is so attentive and friendly that you certainly won't find yourself blaming a single detail of the weekend on anything but perfection. He has such a visionary eye for detail, creating a western-inspired sanctuary that is 100% unique. I cannot recommend this place enough—it is pure magic ✨️ 🤠

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this incredible review — reading it truly means the world to us! We’re so pleased Hank’s Ranch could be part of such a special hen celebration and that you enjoyed having the whole Wild West town to yourselves for the weekend. It was a pleasure hosting your group, and we’re delighted The Church made the perfect home for your stay. From lazy afternoons in the sunshine to evenings around the fire pit, rodeo bull fun, cowboy stew under the stars, and relaxing in the wood-fired bathhouse, it sounds like you embraced the full Ranch experience exactly as we hoped. We always want guests to feel completely immersed in the magic of the Old West while still enjoying those little luxury touches, so it’s lovely to hear the cabins, welcome treats, and thoughtful details helped make the weekend feel extra special. Thank you again for choosing Hank’s Ranch for your celebrations and for taking the time to share such kind words. You were wonderful guests, and we’d love to welcome you all back to the Ranch anytime for another unforgettable escape to the frontier 🤠✨

Great experience, great hosts and facilities. Everything is made by Hank from the cabins to the homemade bread and jam, we stayed in the Jail cabin and would happily return when he finishes building The Saloon!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words — it really means a lot! We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay in The Jail and appreciated all the little details that go into making the Ranch what it is. Hank will be especially glad to hear his hard work didn’t go unnoticed — from the cabins to the fresh bread and jam, it’s all part of creating that special experience. It’s wonderful to hear you found it romantic, peaceful, and great value too — that’s exactly what we hope every guest feels when they’re here. We can’t wait to welcome you back when The Saloon is ready… it’s going to be something really special! Until then, the fire pit will be waiting 🤠
