The Old Post Office – stylish comfort above Norwich Market
Wake up above one of Britain’s oldest and most colourful markets. The Old Post Office is a spacious, design-led two-bedroom apartment perched just above Norwich Market, right in the middle of the city’s historic core. From your living room, you’ll look out over candy-striped rooftops, a gothic church spire, and the winding pedestrian lanes that give Norwich its charm.
This isn’t just a place to stay. It’s a front-row seat to one of England’s most underrated city breaks.
Light. Space. Comfort. All yours.
Inside, the flat is just as memorable as the view. Step through the door and you’ll find:
Two generously sized bedrooms with soft white walls, blackout blinds, premium linens, and hotel-standard mattresses.
A large open-plan living/dining room with triple-aspect Crittall-style windows. Watch the light change over the market from your corner sofa or gather with friends at the solid wood dining table for six.
A sleek, fully equipped kitchen with a range cooker, dishwasher, microwave, fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster and Nespresso machine. Cook in, eat out, or a bit of both.
A spacious family bathroom with a deep bath, rainfall shower, and heated towel rail.
Thoughtful touches throughout, including fast WiFi, a Smart TV with streaming apps, plug sockets near every bed, soft throws for lounging, and a curated set of local books and guides.
Every piece of furniture has been chosen for comfort and elegance. Whether you’re staying for two nights or ten, it’ll feel like your home — not a hotel room.
Why people love staying here
You can see the whole city from your windows. But when you step out the door, the location is even better:
Norwich Market is right below — over 200 colourful stalls with street food, local flowers, books, coffee, and curious finds.
The Lanes are on your doorstep — cobbled alleys lined with independent shops, galleries, and vintage boutiques.
Restaurants and cafés are all within a few minutes’ walk: from vegan breakfasts at The Tipsy Vegan to cocktails at Gonzo’s, fine dining at Benedicts or Farmyard, and casual bites at Bread Source or Moorish Falafel.
Norwich Castle, Norwich Cathedral, and Elm Hill (Norwich’s most picturesque medieval street) are all within five to ten minutes on foot.
Need a breath of fresh air? Chapelfield Gardens is nearby for a morning jog or picnic. Or walk the riverside path that leads all the way to the University and beyond.
Whether you’re here for a theatre show, a conference, a wedding, or a weekend escape — you’re in the best location to soak up the atmosphere and explore without the need for a car.
Perfect for couples, families, friends and work trips
The flat suits different types of stays:
Romantic weekends for two? The views, the restaurants, and the market bustle below make it a brilliant getaway.
Families with kids? There’s space to spread out, a bath for the little ones, and plenty to do within walking distance.
Working remotely? You’ll find fast WiFi, table space, and a bright environment to work from.
There's even room to host a small dinner if you're visiting friends in the city.
A building with history, updated for modern life
The apartment is in a former Post Office building — hence the name. You’ll see original features like the high ceilings, deep window sills, and large metal-framed windows. But everything else is brand new. It’s been fully renovated with underfloor heating, modern plumbing, double glazing, and the kind of thoughtful design you’d expect in a boutique hotel.
Details that make the difference
We’ve paid attention to the little things so you don’t have to. Here’s what’s included:
High-speed WiFi
Smart TV with Netflix and Prime
Washer-dryer
Dishwasher + full kitchenware
Hairdryer, iron and ironing board
Towels and toiletries provided
Self check-in with lockbox or key code
Local recommendations sent ahead of your stay
Access to the entire flat — no shared spaces
We also stock the essentials: tea, coffee pods, sugar, oil, salt and pepper. If you're staying longer, there's a large M&S Foodhall and a Tesco Metro nearby.
Staying longer? You’re sorted.
Weekly or monthly stays are welcome. Whether you're relocating, on a work placement, or just need a break, we offer discounts for longer bookings and can help with any special requests.
The buzz of the city, the peace of your space
The apartment is on the third floor, high enough to enjoy the view without the street noise disrupting your stay. The market closes down in the evening, and the bedroom windows face quieter lanes — so you’ll rest well after a day out.
Getting here and getting around
Train station: 15–20 minutes’ walk or a 5-minute taxi
Buses: Walk just two minutes to the main stops on Castle Meadow
Parking: There’s a secure multi-storey just a short walk away (St Andrew’s Car Park)
Airport: 15 minutes by taxi
Most guests don’t need a car — everything’s so close. But if you're driving, we’ll send full parking options in advance.
And if you need anything...
We’re local and we care. You’ll be able to message or call us directly during your stay. Whether you need help getting a taxi, finding a restaurant, or working the heating — we’ve got you.
