Carmel of Our Lady of Walsingham comprises an attractive red brick country house believed to have been built in 1885 in the Queen Anne style for Florance Rippingall. Formerly known as 'Langham Lodge' the property has formed part of the Carmel of Our Lady of Walsingham which was founded in 1982 from the Carmelite Monastery at Quidenham, Norfolk.
The property is 5 miles from the National Shrine at Walsingham and one mile from the North Sea coast.
The house provides in total 20 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2 shower rooms, 6 cloakrooms and a self-contained guest wing together with extensive range of offices and craft workshops. The accommodation includes a fully equipped kitchen/breakfast room, large dining room and drawing room and a number of other ancillary reception rooms. There are a number of original period features in the house including an imposing entrance hall and staircase, sash windows, cornicing, original fireplaces and flooring.
The guest wing is situated to the east of the main house and linked via a long cloister/covered walkway and provides its own self-contained accommodation.
Carmel of Our Lady of Walsingham is situated ½ mile to the west of the attractive North Norfolk village of Langham occupying a secluded south facing position. Langham is a
thriving village with church, village hall and public house. The coastal villages of Morston (one mile) and Blakeney (2 miles) have shopping facilities and there is an extensive range of
amenities within the Georgian market town of Holt (about 5 miles to the south east) with a supermarket, numerous boutiques, other shops and restaurants.

Norwich Railway Station has a regular service to London Liverpool Street (about 110 minutes); Cambridge Station (70 minutes), Kings Lynn Station (28 miles to the west) has a regular service to London Kings Cross (about 100 minutes).
The North Norfolk Coast (the closest village being Morston) is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty. The area offers a broad range of recreational sporting amenities including sailing and golf along the North Norfolk Coast, various wide sandy beaches, long walks and bird watching.
There are a wide range of education amenities in the region within both State and Private Sector including the Village School in Langham together with Greshams School at Holt and Beeston Hall School at West Runton.
There are a number of outbuildings to the south east of the house which could be suitable for alternative uses subject to the necessary consents. These include a former piggery, former tennis pavilion, garden sheds and a store.
