Ensuite Master bedroom
Double bed in a well appointed room with plenty of hanging and storage space and a well fitted ensuite bath room with a bath and over bath shower.

Paddle staircase
They are steep and not ideal for those with mobility problems but easy to get up and down when you know how and handrails to help. They lead to a lovely balcony outside the bedroom, overlooking the main living area.

Upstairs bedroom
This room is in the beamed eaves (low beams) with twin beds which can also be a superking double, bedside cabinets, easy chair and canvas wardrobe. Small window level with the floor opens up with a view down into the gravelled area at the back of the barn.

ALL ABOUT THE OUTSIDE:

Rooster Barn is at the end of a private gravel drive and accessed through the wooden 7 bar gate with extra mesh backing to stop small dogs escaping. Park and shut the gate and you can safely let the dogs out into the enclosed garden.

Double doors from the living room open out onto a lovely south facing patio and a gravelled area. It is separated from but connected to the parking and large grass paddock area. The whole of the property is gated and well fenced around the perimeter with a combination of post and rail fencing with stock mesh (smaller at the bottom to stop very small dogs squeezing through), solid fence panels and a mix of fencing plus planting. At the lowest point it is approx 4ft. but solid.

Rooster Barn grounds are mature and include an attractive but robust planting of shrubs and hedge plants. The main garden is laid to lawn with plenty of space for your dogs to exercise in a safe and secure space.

Dog friendly heaven

We just spent 5nts at Rooster Barn with our 3 little dogs and what a wonderful time we had. The barn and garden were just perfect for us all, we also took our elderly mother who loved it just as much. The area is in a quiet location but easy access to explore Norfolk. The welcome pack was a lovely and generous touch and enjoyed by everyone. We will deffo be returning to one of your properties in the near future for some more relaxation time xx

Rooster Barn- A late summer booking

Lovely location, very peaceful, but in a central location for visiting both coast and countryside. Lots of walks available from the cottage, along with lots a short car ride away. Very good welcoming pack for both humans and dogs. As dogs are allowed everywhere, it is the first time I've gone away with our dog and not had to worry about where she was going or sitting. A very secure garden, full fenced, so no worries there either.

Lovely converted barn - comfortable, spacious, 'home from home'. A great place to stay

We loved our stay at Rooster Barn - Rooster barn has a beautiful interior, is well equipped and has all comforts for a relaxing stay. The beach and nice walks are nearby, along with great places to eat. The barn has plenty of resources for people wanting to self cater. It has an outside area for eating in fine weather and is really great for dogs, as the outside space is enclosed with a gate. Highly recommended - we plan to return.

Happy customer

First time at Rooster Barn. Had a week away with my husband and our four large dogs (Pointers and a Weimaraner). We were greeted with a lovely welcome pack and a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate our anniversary. The accommodation was perfect for us as it provided a secure space for our dogs to wander, as well as giving us a peaceful place to rest. There is a pub (under new management) in the village, where we sat outside after a walk with the dogs and everything else is just a short drive away. The neighbours dogs were not a problem. They occasionally barked when they heard our dogs outside, but there was no place around the property for contact, it’s completely secure. I’ve already booked to come back next year.

Rooster barn Trunch

Beautiful place to stay plenty of safe space for dogs to run around well equipped cottage. The only thing i would say been a barn is noise floor boards above the ground floor bed room and noise doors. Could do with changeing the double bed to a king size bed as I found the double to small .but very warm at rooster barn and comfortable

Another glorious stay at Rooster Barn

Another perfect stay and time spent at our favourite ECR property. Rooster Barn does not disappoint and we find that every repeat visit just makes us love the barn even more. The interior is cosy and welcoming, beautifully furnished with comfy furniture, a well-stocked kitchen and lovely details throughout the property. The outside space is perfect for dogs and our 2 love the space and being able to run around. The coast is not far and there are plenty of footpaths near the property. Going back again next month and we cannot wait! Our perfect holiday space ...

Another Great Stay

Rooster Barn is just great-wonderful garden and beautiful accommodation close to woods, beach and common walks plus good local pubs and restaurants. What is not to like?! East Ruston makes every trip for a dog owning holidaymaker better-they just get it.

A Week With The Roosters

What a lovely property this is. We felt at home from the moment we arrived, until we left. Well equipped with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The welcome pack was very generous. And the dogs appreciated their treats too.

Simply stunning

We booked a last minute short break and couldn’t believe how stunning the property is. Very large, secure garden (I have small dogs) which meant I could have them in the garden without worry about them escaping. The house itself is beautiful and huge effort has gone into making it perfect in every way. The large log fire was the icing on the cake with the chilly evenings drawing in. Many thanks for one of the best welcome packs ever which included lovely local produce. I can’t fault this property and hope to come back. First class from booking to checking out, East Ruston Cottages have got it spot on .

Best of the best

You really can not fault this Barn. There is everything you need plus a few things you didn’t know you did! The welcome goody packs for both humans and dogs are so good! You can drive in, shut the gate, and your hounds are totally secure. We found we got to the Mundersley beach quickly, but there are so many places to visit. All dog friendly. Blickling Hall, Felbrigg Hall and Morston Quay we recommend a visit.

Rooster Barn

East Ruston Cottages were very easy to deal with and they are truly dog welcoming. They provided all the necessary information in the lead up to the holiday. Rooster Barn is well placed in Trunch, and there were so many good walks from the house. The barn itself was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. Liz was very communicative and left a wonderful array of human and dog treats. We had a lovely relaxing week and I would have no hesitation in recommending either Rooster Barn or East Ruston Cottages if you wish to visit North Norfolk

Return to Rooster Barn

After visiting last year for the first time (we re-booked within 2 days), it was great to return to Rooster Barn. The area is tranquil and has so much to offer, particularly as we have two young dogs who love to have off lead walks and sniffs. Everything you could want for a home from home. Great places to visit all within 10 miles or a 15 minute journey. Highly recommend.

Wonderful barn conversion

Rooster Barn is a gorgeous property and it was a holiday we were so looking forward to. Everything was provided that we had requested as we were bringing a dog with some mobility issues. Customer service was excellent. Loved the location of the property. Sadly after only one day one of our dogs became very poorly and we had to dash back home (6hrs away) and could only return to pack up and leave . Sue was so helpful and sympathetic, helpfully managed to rebook our second week which we were so grateful for. If you ever need a reason to book with East Ruston Cottages then our experience tells you why. Brilliant customer service together with amazing properties. We will be back!

Perfect Norfolk Christmas!

Christmas at Rooster Barn. ….. magical! This was our 3rd visit this year, yes we are hooked. The barn is just stunning, a beautiful conversion with loads of exposed timbers. Cosy open living/dining space with a double sided wood burner and comfortable seating arrangements. All creature comforts are provided and our dogs love the barn and garden. Short distance to the coast for seaside walks and a lovely village pub. Have already booked 3 stays for next year… can’t wait!
