See what our previous guests have to say!
Brilliant find so unique. Attention to detail is amazing. I booked all 3 cabins with friends and it was great to have the place to ourselves. Hank was so attentive and helpful. Have just booked to go again.
We booked all 3 cabins for a family birthday and had a great time.
The very comfortable beds, great showers and hot tub all mean you can fully enjoy your days and evenings living out your childhood dreams in the wild west.
Definitely a place to return.

What an amazing stay :-) I cannot begin to put into words how relaxing this place is!
Everything from the tranquility of the meadow, the smell of the flowers and the calls of Pablo the peacock... it all touched me and sent me to a place of calm and inner peace.
Sitting round the camp fire toasting marshmallows and connecting with others made it all the more special.
I slept in the jail... my word, the attention to detail was fantastic.. the luxury of the shower, the bed, fresh coffee... the list goes on (as could I!).
Definitely looking to return to this idyllic place.
The Ranch now has a special place in my heart.
THANK YOU Hank and Sarah.. for taking your dreams and making them my reality.. even if only for a short time..

WOW!! What an amazing place!! Blew our minds! The attention to detail, the location, the service…not to mention the welcome treats (bread is a-mazing!) we loved it and can’t wait to come back next year!! I really hope, when we go to the Wild West, it is half as good as Hanks Ranch!!!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🌾🤠 We’re absolutely thrilled to hear you had such a great time at Hank’s Ranch and enjoyed the little details (and the bread! 🍞). It means the world to us that you noticed the effort we put in to make your stay special.
We’d love to welcome you back next year — and here’s hoping your trip to the Wild West is just as magical (though we might be a bit biased 😉).
See you again soon!

What can we say, this place is truly MAGICAL ✨️👢🤠
The attention to detail, the love, passion, time and effort that has gone into this place shines through ❤️
We stayed in the general store, had everything and more you could need for a relaxing time away.
The grounds are stunning, so many little areas to relax and unwind, firepits, cowboy games on hand, hammock to relax in, wild flowers are abundant....the list goes on and on!
Peacock Pablo 🦚 who's on the grounds is a real character ❤️
Very dog friendly, our dog loved his treats and blankets xx
The little extras Hank leaves for you just elevate the experience even more .
The hot tub is an absolute MUST if you stay here...book for exclusive use, Hank will have it fired up and ready for you .
To unwind watching the most stunning sunset in your hot tub is a unique experience and one not to miss!
We ordered the cowboy stew and that was DELICIOUS 😋 we asked for the recipe (thanks for sharing Hank!)
Can not recommend enough, we are checking diaries for when we can come back!
Thank you for everything xx

Response from the owner:Hi Lisa,
Wow – thank you so much for your truly magical words! ✨ It means the world to us that you felt the love, passion, and detail we’ve poured into Hank’s Ranch – it’s guests like you that make it all so worth it.
We’re so glad you loved your stay in the General Store and got to enjoy all the little touches, from the cowboy games and hammocks to Pablo the peacock strutting his stuff (he does love the attention!). And we’re thrilled your pup felt just as welcome – we believe four-legged guests deserve the full ranch experience too! 🐾
It’s wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed the hot tub at sunset and the cowboy stew – Hank was chuffed to be asked for the recipe! Nothing makes us happier than knowing you left feeling rested, well-fed, and dreaming of your next visit.
We can’t wait to welcome you back whenever the stars (and diaries) align. Until then, sending a big ol’ ranch-sized thank you from all of us (and Pablo too!) 🤠❤️🦚

Hank’s Ranch, Norfolk
Hanks ranch is an amazing place to stay, there is a true western feel to the ranch. Hank hasn't spared on detail in the cabins at all everything has been thought about to the horse shoe door handles down to the little bullet pegs for things to hang from. The bucket shower is the best I've had in ages, and the beds are that comfy I never wanted to leave. Hank and his wife make u feel very welcome greeting you at the gate showing you to the cabin, which has the smell of fresh baked bread which was amazing. There are props to use to dress up and make you feel like your in the wild west. I would highly recommend every to go and stay here.
Response from the owner:Howdy Michelle
Thank you so much for this incredible review — it truly means the world to us. We’re over the moon that you felt the full Western charm of the ranch, right down to the bullet pegs and horseshoe handles (Hank will be especially proud you noticed those little touches!).
It was a real pleasure welcoming you both,and we’re so glad you enjoyed the bucket shower, fresh bread, and those comfy beds — we designed everything with rest, comfort, and a bit of cowboy magic in mind. Hearing that you never wanted to leave is the biggest compliment we could ask for.
Thanks again for recommending us and for sharing your experience so thoughtfully. We’d love to have you back anytime you’re ready for round two in the Wild West!
Warm wishes,
Hank & Sarah
🐎🤠🌾
Wow...... this is an amazing place, the thought and detail in the rooms and the theme have not been spared. From fresh baked bread in the room for arrival down to the cowboy theme chocolate as a welcome gift. We stayed in the Jail, but was shown round the general store room and the church and all 3 are amazing. The bucket shower is the best shower I've had, and the extra comfy beds make u not want to leave.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Michelle, for your lovely review! We’re absolutely thrilled you enjoyed your stay in the Jail and appreciated all the little details – from the freshly baked bread to the cowboy-themed chocolate. It means a lot to hear that you found the bucket shower the best you’ve had and that the beds made it hard to leave – that’s exactly the kind of experience we hope to create!
We’re also glad you had a chance to see the other cabins and explore the beautiful surroundings (and yes, we love our community pub too!). Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback – we hope to welcome you back again soon for another stay on the ranch!
Warm wishes,
The Hank’s Ranch Team 🤠
Thank you to Hank for having us at his Ranch. We had the most amazing time and would definitely recommend! We stayed in the General Store, which was amazing. The detail that has gone into his design is incredible. From the bucket shaped shower to the working lanter light above the bed he bas thought of everything! Well worth a stay if you're planning a trip to Norfolk! I will definitely be returning.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words. We are thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic time at the Ranch and enjoyed staying in the General Store. Hank really does put a lot of attention to details and it’s great to hear this made your experience even more special. We can’t wait to welcome you back on your next trip to Norfolk..
A lovely 2 night stay in a very well-made cabin.
A great, welcoming host who did everything he could to make our stay the best, even had a lovely fresh loaf of bread on arrival. Lucky to have the place to ourselves so got to see inside the other cabins, all very nice.
The bed was the comfiest bed I've ever stayed in that isn't my own. Shower and facilities great. Perfectly warm.
No WiFi, bad signal, and no TV meant there was no choice but to enjoy the your company, take in the scenery, and relax.
Thanks!
