What a fabulous holiday cottage. There is everything you could ask for there and more! Really helpful advice from the owner about the hot tub and getting it going and once hot, it was wonderful place to chill in amazing surroundings. Beautiful views and spotlessly clean. Highly recommend for a lovely, relaxing place to stay 10/10 *****

We had a lovely time at Pelican barn, my husband is in a wheelchair, there was lots of room to move him around. The lower ground was the same level. Very small lip on The doorway. We spent most of our time in the garden, plenty of space and shade.

Pelican Barn is a charming, comfortable place to stay in South Norfolk. The area is peaceful, the barn backs on to woodland so the patio is a lovely private place to sit & read or eat. The best equipped kitchen weve ever had in a holiday rental. Comfortable beds, great showers & lots of hot water. We particularly enjoyed sitting in the large upstaiRead morers sitting room. We found the location perfect for exploring - the local town of Wymondham is interesting & has all the amenities we needed. Just 20 minutes into Norwich with the stunningly beautiful cathedral, a must to visit. The Broads are close enough for a day out boating & the north coast around an hour away for seals & seafood! We hope to stay here again. Hide

The cottage was perfect for our stay, the property was well presented with a fantastically well equipped kitchen. The beds were very comfortable and the seating ares again made it easy to relax.The information pack was one of the best easy to follow and most informative I have experienced in a rental. As I grew up only three mile from the village iRead moret was great to learn more about the are I though I knew well. we did meet Nick the owner during who was incredibly helpful and provided some interesting additional history about the barn. I would highly the recommend this as a place to stay for anyone wishing to explore Norwich and travel further across Norfolk to the coast. Hide

A generally pleasant property with particularly well equipped kitchen, but with other minor drawbacks. Good size enclosed garden. However, the small road outside is sometimes quite busy with (often speeding) cars and dog walks from the door are very limited,
