Field Barn - Norfolk

Boasting plenty of space and even more country and coastal charm, this delightful barn conversion offers the perfect base for families and groups of friends to explore Norfolk’s coast and countryside. Surrounded by rolling fields, the property is just over a mile from the centre of the peaceful village of Ringstead where an award-winning gastro pub and welcoming village shop await. There are a variety of countryside and coastal walks to explore close by, including the Peddars Way and the Norfolk Coastal Path. Soft, sandy beaches can be found at neighbouring Old Hunstanton (2.5 miles) and dog-friendly beaches at Brancaster (4 miles), as well as some fabulous fish restaurants and fish mongers. The RSPB reserves at Snettisham, Titchwell, and Holme are a must-see for lovers of nature, and are all within 8 miles. Burnham Market (9 miles) with its eclectic range of shops and galleries is a wonderful place to treat yourself, while Holkham Estate (12.5 miles) beckons with its deer park, great house, and pinewood-backed beach. For days out fit for a king, head to the Royal Estate at Sandringham (11 miles), one of Norfolk’s most popular attractions.
This artistically converted barn is made up of two buildings and accommodates up to 15 guests, 11 in the main barn and four in the cottage. It has been sympathetically renovated to accentuate the original features whilst providing a comfortable and relaxing space. As you step through the door of the main barn you're welcomed into a handy utility room, a perfect space for shedding coats and muddy boots after a day of exploring. Head through to the well-appointed, country-style kitchen where a traditional Aga oven stands ready to whip up holiday feasts for the group, who can gather in the charming dining room to enjoy the chef’s work. At the centre of the home is the great hall with comfortable seating and a tall, crackling wood burner, creating the ideal setting for cosy evenings with loved ones. The vaulted ceiling and double-height windows also make this space feel light and airy when the sun is shining. Down two steps, there’s another entrance area with double patio doors to the enclosed garden. The snug leads off from here with a Smart TV and board games for younger members of the group to enjoy. There are two bedrooms on the ground floor, one double and one with two sets of bunk beds that the kids will love. The family bathroom is off the entrance hall and is also connected to the bunk room. Journeying up the open staircase to the first floor, you’ll find another three bedrooms. Down two steps to a twin bedroom, the master bedroom with a four-poster metal framed bed and en-suite bathroom. Back at the top of the stairs is a balcony/walkway leading to a bedroom with a single bed. A well-appointed shower room completes this floor. Next door, the cottage is self-contained and ideal for those wanting their own space. As you enter, you’re welcomed into a sitting room, comfortably furnished, with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. Walk through to the kitchen/diner with a traditional farmhouse-style kitchen providing all you need to whip up a quick lunch if you’re on the go. The bedrooms are at either end of the cottage, both with sumptuous double beds, one has an en-suite bathroom and the other an en-suite shower room.
Outside offers an enclosed garden with a covered patio area outside the main barn and an uncovered patio outside the cottage. There is garden furniture on both patios to enjoy al fresco dining or watch the sun set with a glass in hand. Wild meadows also surround you, adding to the peaceful, remote atmosphere of the property.
