Great location, a very short walk to the beach; short drive to Cley for bird watching and Sheringham for shopping. Everything you need for a North Norfolk holiday.

A compact lodge that was very well equipped and comfortable to spend time in. Nice views from the windows especially the kitchen window looking over the water with the constant visit by the Kingfisher. A friendly owner that was there if needed.

We enjoyed our stay, but with a bit of effort the place could have been really good. The huge plants in pots in the cottage were a bit weird!

Fabulous place to stay. What a great setting. The cottage was warm and welcoming in all respects. Lovely comfortable bed. A tawny owl visited one evening and we walked to the beach every day to see the sunset. We will definitely be back and will stay longer next time.

The basics were met but the place is in need of decorating and some tlc. It was clean but dusty and dirty windows. The sofa was not comfortable neither was the bed. Nothing in the way of comfort. The kitchen was well equipped. The bedding did need to be updated and tatty throws on it. It was clean but very worn. The outside of the Barn looked needsRead more a lick of paint like the outside door needs repainting and general tidy. In the area there is one restaurant/ pub but gets fully booked quickly even in " out of season". The book left by the owners had some good tips in it. On the whole the stay was OK but think priced bit high for what you got. No " welcome " note and just a cheap tiny packet of biscuits which we ' left' behind . With care and and refurb it could be lovely but did not meet any of our hopes on your( website expectations) . Don't normally leave a review like this but it needs to be said. The whole experience was no where near the 3 star it was given. Even 2 would be a stretch. There are some nice days out happily weather held. Not somewhere I would want to stay if you didn't go sightseeing not enough comfort in the Barn. Shame really with care it could go to being a good place to stay. Also the television channels were limited, only 2 dvds to choose from and no WiFi. ). Hide
