The courtyard at The Harper in Langham (Image: The Harper) Writer Oliver Berry said: "Christmas here feels more contemporary: mulled negronis, trolley titbits, sweet-and-savoury sharing boards and a Norfolk turkey for the big day, naturally."
Built in a former glass-bowing factory, the hotel exuberates style with a courtyard of olive trees, rusty chimneys and festoon lighting.
Its oak floors, underfloor heating, wingback leather chairs and four-poster beds offer the chance to cosy up in the colder months.
The article also mentions the nearby Thursford Christmas Spectacular and Norfolk Lights Express steam train as activities to get guests in the festive mood during a stay.
For anyone looking to blow the cobwebs away, the hotel is close to the Blakeney Nature Reserve, perfect for a winter stroll.
