One-Off Feature

What was once a massive 19th century granary is now a spacious, open-plan contemporary loft on a Norfolk farm where the country meets the city. Sitting in a tranquil river valley facing south and east towards an unbridged ford and the gentle rise to Barsham Hill, The Great East Barn offers the perfect blend of rusticity and luxury and is just 15 minutes from the Norfolk coast.

General Info

The Great East Barn is the largest of five historic farm buildings to have been restored by an architect and his wife, and it is now sumptuous holiday accommodation for 14 people. Imagine yourself in the luxurious comfort of the first floor sitting room with the rustic clunch walls behind you, surrounded by crisp modern furnishings and gazing across calm green fields and grazing sheep. This huge open plan space extends past a central island kitchen to a large airy glazed dining room with more fabulous views down the valley. The space and layout make it perfect for a large group of friends or family, and designer details combine with traditional building techniques to create a completely unique place to stay.

The Area Surrounding The Property / Accommodation

North Barsham is a 15 minute drive from the Norfolk Coast and is very handy for trips to Blakeney, Wells-next-the-Sea and Burnham Market. There are beautiful beaches at Holkham, Hunstanton and Sheringham (to name but a few) and there are lots of opportunities for sailing, windsurfing, kite surfing, fishing and wildlife watching. There are excellent walking routes near the barns, cycle hire and riding stables are readily available, and there are some superb golf courses at Sheringham, Brancaster and Hunstanton. Take a day trip to Holt Country Park, the Hilltop Outdoor Centre and Foxley Wood or visit the wonderful historic houses and scenic gardens of Blickling Hall, Sandringham House, Houghton Hall and Castle Rising. And you can keep children entertained with crabbing, Go Ape, the North Norfolk Railway and outings to Banham Zoo and the Sea Life Sanctuary at Hunstanton. And don’t forget to sample some of the delicious delis and excellent pubs and restaurants.
