Oliver's Travels has added a new gem to its exclusive Sandringham collection with the opening of The Water Tower, a restored Victorian landmark on the Royal Estate in Norfolk. Available for bookings now, this unique property offers a romantic getaway for two, with weekly rates starting at $1,830 (£1,500).

Originally built in 1877 by Victorian engineer James Mansergh, the neo-Byzantine tower was designed to supply clean water to Sandringham House after a typhoid outbreak affected the future King Edward VII and his son. The tower, now transformed into a luxurious residence, spans four circular levels and features a rooftop terrace within the original 32,000-gallon cast-iron water tank, providing panoramic views of the Sandringham Estate and Norfolk countryside.

The Water Tower joins two other exclusive properties in Oliver's Travels' Sandringham collection: The Folly and The Gardens House. Each property, whilst distinct in character and history, shares a connection to the Royal Estate, reflecting the company's focus on unique homes with a strong sense of place.

Inside, the tower's conversion celebrates its architectural heritage, with reclaimed elements from the estate and historic photographs of the Royal Family. The ground floor houses the kitchen, dining room, and bathroom, whilst the king-size bedroom and living room occupy the upper levels. A spiral staircase leads to the rooftop terrace, offering an intimate setting with sweeping views.

Guests can explore the Sandringham Estate's attractions and nearby North Norfolk beaches, making it an ideal retreat. The Water Tower is accessible via direct trains from London King's Cross to King's Lynn, with private parking and an electric vehicle charging point available on-site
