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!

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

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.

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! 🤠⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We’re delighted to hear you felt relaxed from the moment you arrived—that’s exactly the experience we hope every guest has.

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.

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 🤠

Absolutely stunning adventure at Hank’s Ranch; the whole experience is so full of thoughtful touches that it truly feels like a slice of the Wild West in Norfolk. Wasn’t sure what to expect, but I can confidently say this is the nicest cabin I’ve ever stayed in (and we chose Jail!)
Response from the owner:Thank you for such an incredible review — it means the world to us!
We love that you described your stay as an adventure… that’s exactly what we set out to create — a true little slice of the Wild West, right here in Norfolk. It’s brilliant to hear The Jail exceeded your expectations and that it’s the nicest cabin you’ve stayed in — that’s something we’re really proud of.
All those thoughtful touches are so important to us, so it’s lovely to know they made your stay feel extra special. And that peace and quiet, with those views… there’s nothing quite like it.
We’d love to welcome you back to the Ranch anytime — the next chapter of your Wild West escape will be waiting 🤠

We had such a brilliant stay at Hank’s Ranch! We booked the jail themed room and honestly, the level of detail was incredible. The theming went all the way down to the tiniest touches, which made it such a fun and memorable place to stay.
One of our favourite parts was relaxing in the hot tub at night and watching the stars. It was so peaceful. We also loved sitting outside the cabin by the fire in the evening, just soaking up the atmosphere. Everything felt cosy, well thought out, and perfect for a little getaway.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this. It truly means the world to us. We’re absolutely delighted you love your stay in the Jail. knowing that you noticed all the tiny details makes us smile more than you know, so much thought goes into creating that full wild West experience right down to the smallest touches.
There’s something pretty magical about a night in the hot tub under those big Norfolk skies isn’t there? The stillness the stars the quiet…it’s one of our favourite parts too. And evenings by the fire outside the cabin, that’s exactly how the Ranch is meant to be enjoyed. Slow, cozy, and completely unhurried. Thank you for choosing to spend your getaway with us and for taking the time to share your experience. We’d love to welcome you back to Hank’s Ranch whenever you’re ready for your next escape to the Wild West 🤠

I don’t think I have enough words to describe how amazing Hanks ranch is! My fiancée and I were looking forward to our NYE stay but nothing could have prepared us for this little slice of heaven tucked away in peace and quiet. We arrived to find home baked bread (fresh that day!) along with home made butter and jam and it was delicious!! Hank then came and introduced himself later on and we were again surprised and touched by the gift of a bottle of bubbly to see the new year in! Our stay was rounded off with a cozy fire pit on which we made s’mores not to mention the comfiest bed and most amazing showers to boot! If I could give this place ten stars I would! I would recommend Hanks to anyone wanting to experience a quiet cozy getaway with a western twist! Fantastic place.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much James for such a fantastic review — it sounds like your New Year’s Eve escape was filled with calm, warmth and a little touch of magic ✨
It was wonderful to welcome you both, and we’re delighted that the peaceful setting, freshly baked bread and homemade treats helped your stay start on such a lovely note. Hearing that the bottle of bubbly, cosy fire pit and s’mores made your celebrations extra special truly means a lot. We’re also so pleased you loved the super-comfy bed and those characterful showers — they’re a big part of the Ranch experience.
Your enthusiasm, kindness and “ten star” praise really made our day. Guests like you are what bring the spirit of Hank’s Ranch to life — embracing the quiet, the western twist, and the chance to slow down and unwind.
Thank you again for sharing your experience — we’d be honoured to welcome you back to our little Wild West hideaway when the trail leads you this way again 🤠🌵Hank and Sarah

Excellent stay at Hank's Ranch. Me, my wife and our dog stayed in Jail. It was very unique and fun with all sorts of quirky features, from horse shoe door handles, the bucket shower, actual rifles, to jail bars around the bed. The actual cabin was very well designed and high end, and stayed very toastie. It's a peaceful site. Hank provided some nice touches like cowboy shaped chocolates, bread, butter and jam. We paid extra for the welcome meal and wine which was delicious. Hank was very friendly and chatty. The area in front of the cabins is good for dog walking. There's a decent pub in the nearby village for dinner. Would recommend for glamping with a fun theme.
Response from the owner:Thank you Martin so much for such a brilliant review — we’re thrilled you, your wife, and your four-legged sidekick had a fantastic stay in The Jail! 🤠🐾
We’re delighted you enjoyed all the quirky details and Wild West touches that make the cabin so unique — from the bucket shower to the horseshoe handles and those old jail bars. It’s great to hear you found everything cosy and high-end too; that’s exactly the blend we aim for.
Hank will be chuffed to know his welcome goodies and cowboy stew hit the spot, and we’re glad you made the most of the dog-friendly walks and the village pub nearby.
Thanks again for recommending us — it means the world. We’d love to welcome you back to the Ranch for more peaceful escapes and campfire memories soon! 🔥🌾🪵
