Waay short notice on this, but the fellowship sounds awesome:

If you win you get £10,000 and stay for 6 months in Norfolk. You have to work on a novel (you send them an excerpt of that novel for the application) and check in with some people for your progress. Attend some seminars. Housing is included in the award.
OH! I thought I should mention, since this is the part that will likely prevent me from applying: you need a letter of reference from an agent, editor, or accredited teacher of creative writing.
