About this property
Tucked away in a quiet corner of the working organic farm Courtyard Farm in Ringstead, this hideaway is a wonderfully private retreat. Well-known as a haven for walkers and wildlife, just three miles from the popular seaside destination of Old Hunstanton, and close to many charming villages and beaches, The Old Bunkhouse is perfectly situated to explore all that this stretch of the Norfolk coastline has to offer. For more information on Courtyard Farm see the owners website.
The accommodation is centred around the light, open plan living area, comprised of kitchen, dining table and sitting room. Having maintained many attractive elements of the original the building, the modern comforts provide everything that you would expect from a rural retreat. Suitable for a romantic break or for a family looking to escape to the countryside.
With all rooms located on the ground floor, the two en-suite bedrooms can be found either side of the open-plan living area. Both are served by their own bathrooms, with the king-size bedroom featuring a useful little study. The bathrooms include one with a bath and a second with a shower, making this a convenient choice for a family with young children, or for a parent looking to enjoy a good soak!
Outside, the special nature of the location cannot be ignored, with a mixture of pasture and grassland bordering the property. The owners are able to provide guests with access to various walks through the organic farm, which then take you further towards the coastline between Old Hunstanton and Thornham. Great for walking, bikes or birdwatching. With direct access to the sitting room, you will find a french dining set so you can enjoy those hazy summer evenings.
There is also off-road parking for two cars.

Very comfortable, warm accommodation set in beautiful countryside close to the sea. It is a pity it does not have EV charging.

We loved the Old Bunkhouse; the location gave us the most incredible sunrises and night’s sky views…the stars at night and suggested walks were wonderful. The hamper on arrival was incredibly generous (thank you) and the information leaflet really helpful. The layout worked well for us, our son and dog. Be prepared for the dark nights if you’re city folk! Our only issue was the velux windows which we would have liked to open however there was a bit of an issue with flies in the sills.... we would give 5 stars if it weren’t for that.
