Property code: OC-1690

This 400-year-old, listed barn conversion has been refurbished to a high standard and is set in a quiet location, where lovely walks and cycle rides in the country lanes are just on the doorstep, as is the pub/restaurant, which is just 300 metres away. Elegantly furnished with cosy beds and super walk-in showers, there is plenty of space to unwind and relax.

As you enter this single-storey property, you’ll notice modern interiors with nods to the barn’s past including beautiful exposed wooden beams. The kitchen is full of light and has everything needed to whip up delicious meals for the group and a breakfast table and chairs to eat the meals at. The sitting room/dining room is spacious and has comfortable sofas, a Smart TV, and a dining table and chairs for mealtime flexibility. There’s even a study/library with additional seating should you want a quiet moment with a book. Off the library, down a couple of steps you’ll find the bedrooms: an en-suite twin and an en-suite king-size, both with showers, one of which is a large walk-in. There is a pretty private garden to enjoy and a patio that overlooks paddocks, the perfect spot for a quiet drink at the end of the day. 

Horsham St Faith is a thriving village on the outskirts of Norwich and there are plenty of activities to hand both locally and a little further afield. The village has a swimming pool, tennis courts and the City of Norwich Aviation Museum is also based here. Cycling and walking in and around the village will take you out to some pretty countryside and there are numerous golf courses and fishing lakes within a few miles. Norwich (6 miles) is easily accessible and has a host of cultural delights, such as the cathedral and castle, as well as fabulous shops, cafes, restaurants and cinema complexes. The Broads are close by and make for lovely days out. Steam buffs will enjoy a ride on the Bure Valley narrow gauge railway, which takes you from Wroxham (9.5 miles) to the charming, Georgian market town of Aylsham (7.5 miles). Don't forget to get a blast of sea air on the wide sandy beach at Winterton-on-Sea or go seal-spotting a little further along the coast at Horsey (both 25 miles).

The property is spacious and was immaculate when we arrived. Lovely garden to enjoy if the weather is favorable. Very close to the airport Park and Ride for Norwich with a twenty minute service into the city centre. The owner is very friendly and helpful. There is, less than five minutes walk away, an excellent pub/restaurant if you do not want to Read morecook in. Good off road parking in front of the cottage. Hide

Peaceful stay at well appointed cottage. House filled with the scent of jasmine and large hanging baskets. Property is well cared for. Good location for points of interest. Used the park and ride from the airport a couple of times to visit Norwich.

Although we were only visiting for 3 nights, we couldnt fault the property or the location. We certainly plan to visit again, hopefully for longer.

A lovely, well positioned , well appointed, comfortable property and a great advert for Original Cottages. The owner was absolutely charming and, although we don't do many cottage holiday, we'd certainly like to return.

We (2 couples) enjoyed our stay at the Dollery, & we're only sorry to have to leave early due to unforseen circumstances. It's a comfortable cottage with all the expected facilities. The main shower is particularly good & access to heating was much appreciated at the start of autumn! There is a lovely garden with patio, dining table & chairs, & easRead morey parking next to the cottage. The owner introduced herself shortly after our arrival & gave us brief information on the area. (There is a folder in the property giving more details/leaflets). Wroxham Broad is a 40 minute drive away, as is the steam train from Holt to Sheringham. We had planned to eat at the Recruiting Sergeant (which was recommended to us), but there is also a pub be serving food in the village if you prefer not to drive. Unfortunately, due to our stay being curtailed, we did not get the opportunity to eat there. All in all, a lovely (if short!) stay. Hide

This was a delightful cottage with a large, carefully tended garden in a lovely tranquil village. The cottage owner was a very nice lady and very helpful. The Black Swan pub/restaurant was very good and just 5 minutes walk away. Would definitely recommend.

This was our third visit since 2018 and it will probably not be the last. Lovely cottage in a quiet village is ideal as a base. The owner is a great host and full of advice on where to go visit or where to eat. Park and ride bus service to Norwich is just around the corner at the airport.
