About this property

Kingfisher Barn, Sleeps 10+2 (5 Bedrooms)

Kingfisher, named after the kingfishers we see on the securely fenced moat from time to time has a porch which leads through a stable door to an open plan living/dining area with a dining table, 12 chairs, a high chair, comfortable sofas (one of which is a sofa bed) and a log burner for cold winter evenings. There is a large flat screen TV with freeview, DVD player and surround sound home cinema. There is a fully equipped kitchen with range cooker, microwave oven and washer/dryer plus a large American style fridge freezer for your convenience. There are two en-suite double bedrooms with zip and link beds on the ground floor and also a separate loo. Upstairs there are two super king sized beds and another spacious zip and link bedroom. These three bedrooms are easily large enough to add a zed bed if required which we do supply as well as a travel cot.

3 adjoining pet friendly barns have been sympathetically converted to provide spacious and comfortable accommodation. We provide free wifi, oil fired central heating, range cookers, enclosed and private walled gardens, private parking and built-in barbecues. There are no steps to get into the properties and some double en-suite rooms on the ground floors for those who may struggle with steps. We are happy for pet owners to walk their dogs on leads around the farm where there are great opportunities for bird watching. The barns are situated on the farm itself with views over open countryside and the lovely Sculthorpe Church on the driveway.

PLEASE KEEP UP TO DATE FOR OUR LATE DEALS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR

Great property in great location

Great property for staycation. Bedrooms all really good size with comfortable beds. The zip lock twin bed set up worked perfect for us. Living space is great and works really well. There was an issue with the oven which impacted us being able to eat all together so hoping the owners can get that fixed for future rentals asap.

Thank you Karla. Apologies for the oven issue, with the time given during a chnageover we could only inform and apologise to you as we did and rest assured a replacement has been made. We hope you'll return to try it!

Brilliant house

Property ideal for both couples and family we did a mixture. House beautifully kept and equipped. Good location for all coastal resorts, lovely garden so peaceful and safe. Would be ideal for all year, kitchen had everything you could wish for. Bedrooms very large lots of storage space, fans all rooms. All in all a great holiday would go back.

40th celebrations

Having had our holiday in Poland cancelled at late notice we booked and added the hot tub, we really cannot fault this accommodation.... everything you can think of has been catered for, an idyllic escape from reality. Can’t wait to return with our staffy this time as the gardens are really secure and we regretted not bringing him with us this time!!! Thanks so much

Half term holiday with attitude

Wonderful atrtactive child and dog proof barn conversion surrounded by bits of moat and wonderful farmland. Close to an interesting church and a village play area for smaller children with a zip wire. On the way to the coast is a microbrewery!! . You are close to so many interesting sites. We crabbed at Wells, went to the Visitors Centre at Saltmarsh and the stony beach at Cley, walked miles along Holkham beach where the children dipped in the cold North Sea water. Even the 5 year old enjoyed the 8Km walk at Sheringham where dogs can be free off a lead in places. The welcoming gifts at the Barn was lavish. We enjoyed the wine and chocs and after a long journey the other items were well appreciated. Very thoughtful owners who give immediate response to queries. The baby ducks on the moat kept the smaller children amused but the dogs had to be well restrained!!! The Games Room was a boon when it rained. I even had a chance at 74 to show I could still play pingpong competitively!! Thanks come from all of us 8 visitors with 2 dogs....

Mums 80th Birthday Celebration

We had a fantastic time and as we had all 3 barns we felt luxuriously spacious, extremely comfortable and while having lovely meals all together there was time and space to cluster into smaller gatherings. Everything was well thought out, very clean and well equipped. We also had the Sat night meal catered by Mange Tout which was excellent quality and value.We would definitely go back but its already booked. Thanks for adding the perfect benue to our lovely family celebrations. All the staff I have corresponded with have also been incredibly helpful. My only slight confusion was the system for payment as this was complicated and felt quite automated a little like the request for this review coming 3 times and so I presume its computer generated and as far as some of us are concerned personal is best Jo B

A lovely property. Everything that you need for your stay.

Our stay was perfect. From comfortable beds to sitting watching tv by the log burning stove. I would definitely recommend it.

Beautiful cottages, beautiful location,

Fantastic for our group of 30. Wonderful space to dine altogether. Very clean and well maintained, the owner was very helpful from booking to greeting us. The cottages were lovely and spacious, with en suites to every room. The welcome pack was first class and included bacon, eggs, wine and delicious sweets. Never had that before. I would recommend these cottages to everyone. Well placed for beaches etc we would like to come next year please
