  • A beautifully converted barn with countryside walks from your doorstep, located on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Outwell
  • Sociable open-plan living and dining area, ideal for couples or small families to enjoy each other’s company
  • Year-round luxury retreat with private hot tub and beauty treatments available on request on-site
Property code: OC-M28029

Soak in the hot tub while you relish the jaw-dropping views from this superb rural getaway. Ideal for a couple or small family, it’s perfect for a restorative escape surrounded by nature, but also close enough to interesting towns for some pick-me-up retail therapy, too.

High ceilings and huge windows create a sense of grandeur in this five-star destination, in which crisp white walls complement a textural combination of timber and brick. Enjoy the free-flowing living space, with a superb kitchen, a large dining table and a double-height lounge area. Open the doors and enjoy that inside-outside feeling, or draw the curtains and enjoy a night in front of a movie on the Smart TV. Also on the ground floor is a WC-cum-laundry room. A hand-made oak staircase leads you up to the first floor, where you’ll find two delightful bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, sharing a spacious and luxurious bathroom. After a day exploring, its roll-top bath offers the opportunity for a restorative soak, or there’s a separate shower for a refreshing rinse. A hot tub is the star of the show on the enclosed patio, and you can also appreciate the views while you dine alfresco, perhaps grilling something tasty on the BBQ.

The barn is part of a small complex that is set within an acre of private land and surrounded by gorgeous countryside. You’ll find walks from your doorstep, including along the canal next to the site, and you’re just on the edge of the charming village of Outwell, where there’s a choice of shops and places to eat and drink. One of Norfolk’s oldest market towns, Downham Market is 6.5 miles, and makes a great trip, whether to see its historic buildings, try some local foodie treats or visit its interesting shops.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Monks Barn. The views from the jacuzzi were lovely. The welcome pack was very much appreciated. The walks along the nearby canal were ideal for us with our springer spaniel. The only downside was the very busy road right outside the accommodation before being able to access the walks.

Cottage was a lovely, relaxing break. It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Views from Monks were beautiful. Loved that we could bring our dog, that was essential to us. Also that there is a walking area right outside the cottage round the fields. Plenty to do in the area if you have a car and can travel 1/2-1hr.

Thanks so much for providing us with a superb accommodation (with great views) for our one week chill-out holiday in the Fens. We wanted for nothing during this stay and thoroughly enjoyed taking our little dog for long walks round the local waterways and admiring the landscape and natural wildlife of the area. We ate out several times at the HeronRead more (Stowbridge) and would definitely recommend this friendly venue to other visitors. The fairly short trip down the A10 to Ely is also well worth taking, to take in the Cathedral and sights of this historic old city. We will certainly book again when we return to this interesting and picturesque area. Hide
