Bursting with charm and character, this quaint countryside barn conversion nestled in the sleepy village of Briston is the ultimate relaxing retreat ideal for couples and families looking to reconnect with the great outdoors; plenty of scenic footpaths and coastal walks await to be explored a stone's throw from the doorstep.

Combining rustic features and contemporary touches, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner at the heart of this home-from-home boasts a truly tranquil ambience. The high vaulted ceiling creates a sense of space whilst the sumptuous soft furnishings set the scene for a restful stay, welcoming weary walking muscles to take the weight off and unwind, dine and relax with loved ones. End a busy day with a restorative soak in the claw-foot freestanding bath in the family bathroom downstairs before retiring to the crisp, white linens of the double bedroom on this level. Tucked away in the eaves, the mezzanine twin bedroom, with its characterful sloping beamed ceiling (please note, there is reduced headroom), is the perfect peaceful spot for children to rest. Outside, from sunrise to sunset, the shingle garden is an oasis of calm whilst the shared play area is the perfect spot for children to let off some steam before bedtime.

The picturesque village of Briston offers a delightful blend of countryside charm and tranquillity, home to many scenic countryside walks carving through the village alongside charming cottages and local pubs. Soak up the local culture at the nearby market town of Holt 4.5 miles away, famous for its quaint cafes, artisan shops, wonderful restaurants, art galleries and historic buildings. From Holt, hop aboard the North Norfolk Railway to ride to the quintessentially Victorian seaside town of Sheringham, 11 miles away, or head to Blakeney (9.5 miles) or Morston (11.5 miles) to board a boat trip to spot glimpses of the resident seals.

A great place in a very good location to explore North Norfolk. There are plenty of beautiful villages near Briston and an amazing town - Holt. The cottage is beautiful and the owners are very nice and helpful. There is a little private playground in front of the cottage so kids can play safely while parents enjoy a cup of coffee or tea. You can heRead morear the traffic but lets be honest its countryside so there are not so many vehicles. Our family loved the place. Hide

A great cottage, well equipped and nice space. Traffic could be heard but didn't bother us. The upstairs room was cute and good for kids but meant we had to be quiet downstairs..
