Abbots Barn

About this property

Nestled on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Outwell, this characterful barn combines contemporary comforts with rural charm, and comes complete with a double-height living space, hot tub and a scenic patio garden. Perfect for families travelling with the dog, this is the ideal base from which to explore the beautiful Norfolk coast and countryside.

The large open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner boasts a vaulted ceiling, patio doors, and a high-level window, flooding the space with natural light. The fully equipped kitchen is a delight for those who enjoy cooking, and the dining area comfortably seats four. The lounge area features sumptious sofas and offers views across the garden towards the rolling fields beyond. A convenient utility/cloakroom completes the ground floor. When it’s time to retire for the night, two tastefully appointed bedrooms await you on the first floor—a king-size and a twin. With its freestanding bath and separate shower, the family bathroom rounds off this warm and welcoming home. Outside, enjoy the fresh countryside air while dining al fresco in the fully enclosed patio. Spend leisurely hours in the hot tub and relax to the sights and sounds of nature.

Part of a small complex on the site of an old Benedictine Priory, this location offers easy access to local amenities and is the ideal base for walking, cycling, fishing, and wildlife spotting. Outwell itself is home to shops, restaurants, and pubs, while the historic market town of Downham Market is 6 miles away. Explore nearby attractions such as Welney Wetlands Wildlife Reserve (10 miles), Denver Windmill (7 miles) for delightful cream teas, and the King’s Estate at Sandringham (24 miles). Additionally, the small city of Ely is 20 miles away, offering opportunities to explore the cathedral or indulge in some retail therapy.
