The Grainstore was a lovely place for a holiday. The house was well equipped and comfortable. It was in a very good area for cycling. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the cake which was left for us.

The Grainstore was fabulous and really well equipped. Everything was thought of. Loved the welcome pack which was done excellently. It was the perfect place to relax and there was more than enough space for the 9 of us including 4 children. It was lovely to have a cake and some wine left which was a really nice touch. Highly recommended, but next tRead moreime I think we'll leave the kids behind and make it an adults only break when we book again. Thank you so much for all the help. It was really appreciated.

A very well appointed, clean property with luxury towels and bed linen, fresh flowers, wine and homemade cake on arrival. The owner was very welcoming. Lots to do the local area and a variety of good eateries. The outside seating area and garden was very relaxing and the games room a real bonus, suiting three generations in our family.

The Grainstore is a beautiful well-appointed barn conversion in a quiet location and was perfect for our family reunion. The beds were very comfortable with the flexibility to serve as doubles or two singles which was ideal for our mixed age party of 10, and each of the 5 bedrooms had en-suite facilities. The safe on-site playground and games roomRead more kept the younger members of our group entertained for hours, and everyone had a wonderful time. The location was great and within easy reach of the north coast towns, Norwich and the Broards at Wroxham. Perfect for our family holiday. Hide

The property was beautiful and excellent facilities. The only drawback was having to drive to get to places to visit or go for walls. It's a lovely area to explore though, and the house is a peaceful retreat after a day out.
