One-Off Feature

Dating back to 1715, Long Meadow is the oldest property on a beautiful Norfolk farm and was once used as a milking parlour. Now beautifully restored, it is a luxurious cottage with traditional clunch walls, an elegant but relaxed French country feel, and a unique character.

General Info

Long Meadow is one of five historic farm buildings at Barsham Barns to have been restored by an architect and his wife, and it is now a beautifully-appointed cottage for 8 people. It has a large oak-beamed sitting room with views across the courtyard garden to the lovely Stiffkey valley beyond, and there is also a generously sized dining room with a huge window looking onto the terrace (the perfect spot for al fresco meals). The space, layout and spectacular views make it a perfect place to relax with friends and family, and designer details combine with traditional building techniques to create a rustic yet contemporary holiday house.

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.
