The barn is located in a quiet village only two miles from the dramatic North Norfolk coast: A " designated area of outstanding natural beauty". Also we are 20 miles from the city of Norwich.Shops are close by in Sheringham, Holt and Cromer. The National Trust Felbrigg estate is only a few minutes walk away with spectacular walking in mature forests and a Country House to visit.Nearby too are the spectacular Blickling Hall and Sheringham Park, both owned and maintained for the nation and visitors by the National Trust. Less than one hours drive west brings you to the Queens house and estate at Sandringham.

For walkers we are almost on the Weavers way, a waymarked footpath that meanders 60 miles from Cromer to Great Yarmouth. Also, the spectacular North Norfolk Coast path passes nearby.The North Norfolk coast is a delight and offers a variety of landscapes ranging from beaches with dunes; pine forests; marshes world famous for their bird life;Seal Colonies off Blakeney Point that you can visit in local boats and cliffs with treasures of prehistoric fossils. The local inland area is predominantly rural with unspoilt countryside, winding lanes, small villages and quaint English pubs offering meals made from local produce. Less than 15 miles away are the famous Norfolk Broads where every kind of boating activity is available. See Sail Boats passing through the fields!
