One of a group of three holiday retreats beautifully converted from former farm buildings, this sweet, relaxing getaway is perfect for couples and smaller families exploring the heart of the Norfolk countryside. Offering welcoming accommodation for up to three guests, the imaginatively updated single-level barn conversion features polished wooden flooring and timber beams, and makes a relaxing base for keen walkers and nature lovers. Within easy reach of the popular Snetterton Circuit, this bright and cheerful holiday home is ideally situated for discovering the region’s beautiful woodlands and quaint villages.

Entering this fresh and tastefully decorated property, the spacious, light-filled open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has high ceilings with wooden beams, and is an ideal space for relaxing in at the end of a busy day. With a cosy sofa and Smart TV, the lounge space is perfect for snuggling up to watch a film. There’s a sociable dining table over by the stylishly arranged kitchen. Exploring this lovely single-level getaway further, you will find an invigorating shower room and two light-filled bedrooms: a pretty single and a charming double with a built-in wardrobe. Heading outside, there’s a patio area with garden furniture to the front, screened off from the neighbouring properties, offering a relaxing space to sit back and enjoy a meal alfresco. All three cottages share access to the large courtyard with a water feature and delightful views.

Our 7th stay in this lovely cottage, now home from home for us. Still enjoy its location for visiting our favourite places in Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. Still enjoy also, after a day out and about, sitting on the patio watching the beautiful sunsets.

Our 6th stay at this lovely, comfy cottage and looking forward to the 7th. It is ideally situated for visiting the many sites of interest in Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. It is also so nice to return, after a day out and about, and relax on the patio watching the lovely sunsets.

The location of the property was ideal for us, due to wanting to travel short distances to surrounding areas, forest walks, beaches, various towns & villages. Property had all the facilities that we required and was very clean & tidy.

Our fourth stay in this lovely cottage has been just as enjoyable as the previous three. Thanks to the owners who always make us feel welcome, we feel very much at home here. As always it was so good to return, after a day out, and relax on the patio watching the beautiful sunsets.
