A fantastic base for exploring Norfolk’s beautiful countryside, this handsome barn conversion sits between King’s Lynn and Downham Market. Sleeping up to six guests, it’s the perfect base for families and groups of friends planning days of on-site relaxation and further-afield adventures together. Downham Market and King’s Lynn (both within 8.5 miles) are lively market towns with plenty of appeal, connected by the River Great Ouse. Explore the area’s sights with walks through the woodlands of Shouldham Warren (3 miles) or around the tranquil waters of Pentney Lakes (10 miles). Visit Watatunga Wildlife Reserve (2.5 miles) for the chance to enjoy a safari tour through habitats home to wild deer, antelope and other exciting wildlife. From country to coast, the sandy shorelines at Heacham and the Victorian seaside town of Hunstanton are both within 23 miles and perfect for classic beach days.
While this two-storey barn conversion has been beautifully updated, the work has been carried out with respect for its original design, with features including ornamental fireplaces, stone-flagged flooring and exposed wooden beams. Step inside and find that the traditional farmhouse styling complements the property. Find space to kick off your walking shoes in the hallway before moving through to the light-filled kitchen/diner. This well-appointed space features everything needed for a self-catered stay, with the farmhouse dining table sitting in the light of the glass patio doors. After each meal, unwind in the comfortable lounge, where ample soft seating is arranged around a Smart TV and an ornamental stove, offering the ideal spot for cosy movie nights. A downstairs WC completes the ground floor. Follow the stairs up to the first floor and take your pick from three restful bedrooms. A master king-size room features its own en-suite shower room, while the double bedroom and twin room are served by a traditional family bathroom.
Accessed from the kitchen/diner and lounge, the wraparound patio outside offers the perfect spot to gather for quiet morning coffees and al fresco evening meals. Enjoying countryside views, this relaxing space features a picnic bench and sun loungers, as well as a built-in charcoal BBQ. Beyond your private space awaits a fantastic choice of on-site facilities shared with neighbouring guests. These include a heated outdoor swimming pool (open May to September), as well as a hot tub, a sauna, a games room and an outdoor children’s play area. Private parking for three cars completes the offering.
