Property code: OC-B30933

Located close to the historic village of Foulsham, deep in the Norfolk countryside, this striking barn conversion is full of thoughtful details and rustic accents, making it the perfect bolthole for a family or group of friends. Surrounded by verdant scenery, amble through the village and enjoy learning about Foulsham’s history, renowned for its Bronze Age discoveries. Travel into the market town of Holt (10.5 miles) and join the Holt Owl Trail – a footpath that celebrates the town’s Georgian architecture and historic sites. The city of Norwich is 18 miles away, offering a vibrant destination for days out together. Little ones will love spotting seals at Blakeney Point (18 miles), while traditional seaside fun awaits at Wells-next-the-Sea (18.5 miles).

Before stepping into this contemporary barn conversion, take a moment to appreciate its chic façade of wood panels combined with gleaming floor-to-ceiling windows. Head inside to find that the sleek style continues in the form of a welcoming boot room where you can kick off muddy walking shoes after days of adventure. From here, walk past the family shower room and utility room, and uncover the social heart of the home, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Here, fire up the wood burner for cosy evenings, and sink into the lounge space’s soft seating as you flick through the Smart TV. When stomachs rumble, a well-appointed and impressive kitchen space boasts everything needed to cook up Norfolk feasts for the group. A stylish breakfast bar offers a sociable space to keep the chef company, while the round dining table comfortably seats up to six hungry guests. At the end of each busy day away, three splendid bedrooms offer restful nights and lazy mornings. Choose from two king-size rooms, both with Smart TVs and one boasting an en-suite bathroom and access to a scenic, raised terrace. Completing the bedrooms is a flexible super-king-size room with zip-and-link beds that convert to twins on request; this room also features an en-suite shower room. Completing the interior is a well-equipped family bathroom. Outdoors, you’ll want to sneak away to the log cabin in the enchanting garden. Go for a twilight sauna or soak in the wood-fired hot tub under the twinkling stars.

The Mediterranean-style garden features a sunken lounge area with cushions watching the outdoor TV, artificial grass, a patio with garden furniture and sun loungers with a large gas BBQ, and a raised lawn area bordered with mature planting. Private parking is available for four cars.

We stayed at Bumblebee Barn for a week as a family of 4, the kids aged 6 and 2. The place is superb, we felt like it was exactly what we wanted, a home from home for the week. Sarah was great, stopping in to see us at the beginning of our stay to show us everything, even pre-warming the hot tub for our arrival. Sarah did check in mid-week toRead moreo, to ensure we were happy and comfortable. We had a great stay, and were 20-45mins drive to everything we had planned daily. The location is great in our opinion. Cannot fault the Barn, we will be back. As my son said best holiday home ever. Thank you very much for a wonderful week Sarah/Bumblebee Barn! Hide

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful property. Light and airy, and roomy enough for 6 adults. There are some lovely design features in both the barn and the garden that make you want to copy at home. We made good use of the hot tub and sauna, and the barbecue too. We had some good trips out to Sheringham and Norwich which are not too faRead morer away. It was a shame the pub Foulsham was closed, but i don't think we would have walked there anyway, not along those lanes, and there are other pubs quite close by too. Sarah, the owner is close by if needed, but we had no issues, so didn't see her after initially showing us around. It's a great place and I would be very happy to return Hide
