Featuring a wealth of original features and oodles of charm, this characterful barn conversion offers spacious living and entertaining areas, and cosy comforts including underfloor heating throughout – making it the perfect year-round country retreat. Located midway between Roughton and Cromer and surrounded by country walks, it’s part of a small complex of holiday cottages with shared access to an indoor pool with showers and changing facilities, and an outdoor children’s play area. Just up the road, Cromer (2 miles) offers traditional seaside fun with its beach, pier and fresh seafood, including fish and chips and Cromer crab. This is the gateway to a wonderful coastline stretching both directions from the beautiful beach at Mundesley (8 miles) to Sheringham (6 miles) and Blakeney Point (17 miles), famed for its grey seal colony and wonderful birdlife. The historic houses of Felbrigg Hall (just under 1 mile) and Blickling Hall (8 miles) are within easy reach, while kids will adore the forest fun at BeWILDerwood Norfolk (18 miles).

At the heart of this property is a spacious living and entertainment area with floor-to-ceiling windows spanning the full height of the building, bathing the seating area in natural light. Snuggle on the comfortable sofas for family chats or film nights, or gather around the large dining table for mealtimes or to play board games. The fully fitted kitchen is well equipped for cooking meals, with an electric double oven, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Down the hallway, there is a spacious king-size bedroom and family bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC. Stairs lead up from the living area to a large mezzanine with seating and country views. There are a further three bedrooms upstairs, one king-size with en-suite featuring a shower and WC, one room with full-size bunk beds and en-suite with shower and WC, and a further triple bedroom 

Outside, there’s an enclosed lawned garden with a patio. Make the most of warm summer evenings with a BBQ and al fresco dining, or grab an early morning cuppa to listen to birdsong and breathe in the fresh country air. The property has designated parking for two large cars.

What an absolutely wonderful time we had in the most perfect property for us all. We had everything we needed on our doorstep and the kitchen was an amazing place to hold our murder mystery evening. The luxury of the heated swimming pool was an added bonus! Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality.

Stayed at Holkham barn with 3 generations to celebrate my husband's 70th birthday. The barn was very spacious and warm and accommodated us all comfortably. Swimming pool was very nice if slightly cold but it is January! Overall had a lovely weekend. Would definitely return.

We enjoyed a family stay here, 3 generations plus dog, to celebrate a special birthday. A good location, plenty of places to visit nearby. We made use of the pool most days and enjoyed having this space just for our family group through the simple booking system. Overall a good place for a relaxing break.
