"A really lovely barn conversion in a great location. Two interesting nature reserves within walking distance. National cycle route 1 into Norfolk from the property and lots of nice cycling in the vicinity. Kayak slipway from the next village onto the broads. Two friendly local pubs within a mile or so both on the river bank with lovely views. A really enjoyable holiday. Thank you to the host Lisa who was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this property and location" - Sheila Firth
The Old Dairy at Green Farm Barns is a contemporary barn conversion which benefits from having accommodation set out over the ground floor (please note there are a couple of steps within the property). This is the perfect holiday cottage for families or friends looking to explore the stunning Norfolk countryside and Norfolk Broads.
A generous open plan living area has been beautifully designed with modern/country interiors, blended so beautifully with the original characterful features of this barn conversion. Patio doors leading out from the living space mean that you can swing open the doors and enjoy dining alfresco. The Old Dairy is wonderfully comfortable and well equipped to ensure you have ease during your stay. The bedrooms offer a fantastic space to wind down after a long day exploring the local area or enjoying one of the local pubs on the River Yare. There is one double room and one twin room, providing a fantastic space for a family, friends or perhaps a couple looking for a bit more space.
Location-wise, when having a staycation here you’ll be set close to the Norfolk Broads; why not try hiring a self-drive boat for the day to truly enjoy the surroundings– great fun for the whole family! The barn will have you nestled in the stunning Norfolk countryside, which is ideal for walks, cycling, bird watching and just simply some time to relax, yet only being 6 miles from the Fine City of Norwich. Two wonderful pubs are within walking distance, if you’re looking for a night off preparing your own home cooked meals.
A stay at The Old Dairy offers a relaxing and fun-filled stay for the whole family.
Looking for self-catering accommodation to suit a larger group or two families? Why not take a look at The Old Stables too? It’s a neighbouring property and if booked together they offer a great space for up to 8 guests.
What we love about this property: The setting is simply stunning being surrounded by the Norfolk countryside and yet within easy reach of the Norfolk Broads and the Fine city of Norwich. There is lots to do nearby including many National Trust properties and sites, stunning beaches and numerous attractions including zoos, steam train rides and plenty of nature reserves, or just enjoying the wonderful walks and pubs that are a short walk away.
