About this property
Situated in rural village of Roughton, and beautifully constructed from native flint and brick, The Heydon is a converted farm building forming part of a small complex of nine barns known as Jonas Farm Barns. With shared use of a heated indoor pool and located only two miles away from the bustling coastal resort of Cromer, this hideaway is the perfect base from which to explore all that North Norfolk has to offer, at any time of the year.
The cottage is on one level and full of character with flint walls, vaulted ceilings and beams, but is warm and cosy too with underfloor heating. Comfortable and well-equipped, with an enclosed courtyard garden, the cottage is found in a quiet rural setting and enjoys lovely views across open farmland towards the coast.
Guests are able to enjoy the complex's 13m x 6m heated indoor pool, open daily between 09.00hrs and 18.30hrs. Outside the pool complex is a play area featuring wooden climbing frame and swings.
The Heydon's neighbouring property The Felmingham is for four guests, should you be interested in booking both properties.
Just two miles away from the popular seaside resort of Cromer, this is a wonderful romantic retreat for couples, but equally suitable for someone wishing to holiday alone. This is a great base from which to explore the many rural and coastal delights and attractions on offer in this beautiful area of North Norfolk. The National Trust properties at Felbrigg and Blicking are close by, and beautiful Sheringham Park is a short drive away. Roughton has a shop open 24/7, a petrol station and pub serving food; and Cromer has an abundance of cafes, restaurants and some of the best fish and chips for miles around.

Very pleasant, clean stay. Visited local areas and eaten at New Inn – good home cooked food, also fish & chip shop opposite. A good beach to let the dog off Overstrand. Good holiday break. Would come back, thanks. We liked the idea of booing for swimming pool.

The property was beautifully clean & very comfortable - I would certainly choose to stay there again. If I was being very picky, I would say a reading lamp would've have been welcome however, that's a very personal observation & probably wouldn't bother other folk staying there & it was winter time - am sure its not a problem in the summer!
