Guests have enjoyed their stays at the Barn Conversion, praising its peacefulness, comfortable furnishings, and well-equipped kitchen.

The garden and surrounding farm add to the charm, though some guests noted areas for improvement in cleanliness and additional amenities.
Guests that stayed at this property said
While many guests found the property to be spotlessly clean, there were a few mentions of cleanliness issues such as hairs in the shower and the need for a more thorough clean under sofas and in the fridge. These seem to be isolated incidents rather than the norm.
The location is described as remote and peaceful, ideal for a quiet getaway. However, some guests felt it was too isolated, lacking nearby amenities and activities, especially for teenagers. The proximity to Norwich and beaches is appreciated, but a car is necessary.
The majority of guests found the barn conversion very comfortable, with spacious bedrooms and a large communal area. The garden furniture and layout of the property received positive comments, although there were suggestions for more comfortable sofas.
The property is well-equipped with a kitchen suitable for large meals, games, and a nice garden. Guests enjoyed the ensuite bathrooms and outdoor seating. Recommendations for additional kitchen utensils and a washing line were made, and the lack of a pool was noted.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate the level of thoughtfulness of the hosts. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

The owners were very friendly and helpful and they sorted everything out that we needed. The accommodation in its beautiful surroundings was one of the best we have ever stayed at. We canât wait to re visit.

4 lovely bedrooms and each with their own bathroom was what we needed. The big kitchen lounge area was great for us all to be together. The enclosed garden with big glass doors open to the outside meant the children could safely play outside. A BBQ was had. The owners are friendly and so helpful.
