    This was our first stay at the Granary Barn and it won’t be our lest. Accommodation is beautiful. Martin and Caroline have thought of everything. The swimming pool is lovely we went twice a day. Loved the walks and the goats are so funny. Would highly recommend this as access to Norwich and the Broads was great.

    The best rental we have ever found in the UK. Impossible to fault in any way. Swimming pool; gardens; hosts and the adjacent shop, pub and takeaway along with the best cottage imaginable.We will be back!

    We had a wonderful stay at Wash Farm. Martin & Caroline were friendly, helpful and thoughtful hosts. The accommodation was beautiful which you can tell was built with love and care. Lovely views of the gardens with lots of lovely wildlife visiting to enjoy. Facilities were perfect and the pool which was only a few steps from the front door was an absolute treat. Perfect temperature to swim in, and its a lovely and calm space. We would love to return, whats not to love!
