Electric car charging point (at cost, shared with other properties on-site). Private parking for 2 cars. No smoking. Please note: No children.. Perfect for summer holidays or winter escapes, the warmest of welcomes awaits your arrival at Meadow Farm. Nestled in the countryside, close to the village with its shop and two inns serving food, this is the perfect location to explore the best of Norfolk with its amazing coastline and its famous Norfolk Broads.
The barns, each boasting character, are over 200 years old, yet offer contemporary open-plan living, and are well-equipped and furnished to provide excellent comfort. These well-appointed adjoining barns each enjoy privacy, their own enclosed garden with seating furniture, and private parking. The holiday properties are situated in a separate area of the owner’s grounds, which also has a small, members-only, Registered Caravan Club site for five caravans, on the property’s meadow. Close by is Hickling Broad, with a nature reserve that links to the Norfolk Broad’s unique topography of reed-lined waterways, famous for their good coarse fishing, boating, and rich variety of wildlife, especially waterfowl. Also 3 miles drive away, are the glorious sandy beaches of Sea Palling and Waxham, often visited by seals. Visit Wroxham (11 miles), the capital of the Norfolk Broads, with its waterside cafés, restaurants, shops, and daily river trips available. Also, catch the Bure Valley Steam Railway here for a wonderful trip to Aylsham. Daily boat hire is available at nearby Hickling Broad and Potter Heigham, ½ mile and 3½ miles away respectively. Quiet country lanes and trails are great for relaxed cycling and walking. Nearby attractions include many National Trust properties including Blickling and Felbrigg Hall and Horsey Windpump. Visit the seaside resort of Cromer (21 miles) with a promenade and pier, and Sheringham (26 miles), home to the North Norfolk Steam Railway. The city of Norwich (21 miles), with its cathedral, castle, museums, galleries, restaurants, cinema, theatre, and shopping with two malls and market square is within easy driving distance.
For another great day out, visit Horsey Gap (National Trust) where you can walk on the sand dunes and see the seals and pups on the beach (November to February). Beach 3 miles. Two pubs within walking distance serving great food and craft beers. Winbirri Vinyard is 35 mins drive, or if beer is more your thing check out Woodfords and The Redwell Brewing and tap room. Lots of fantastic restaurants and gastro pubs nearby, the full list of which will be included for you in the welcome pack and includes many dog-friendly recommendations.
The Barns are stocked with ‘a little bit of what you need’ such as kitchen towel, everyday cleaning products, hand soap etc..There is a local supermarket and lots of independent farm shops with local meats, cheeses, fish and more.

We had a fabulous holiday at the Boat Shed Dan was an excellent host. We were so lucky with the weather so enjoyed the hot tub every day. Visited some lovely places. The Greyhound Pub is a hidden gem so welcoming and the food is fabulous Sarah is so lovely and made us feel like we were old friends dog friendly if you take your pooch. The beds were comfy the only downside the wi-fi is hit and miss.but to be expected as out in the country would definitely stay again.

Wow what a fantastic place to stay. Dan was a fantastic host, loved it the moment we walked in from the little messages left around the boat shed to the dog welcome pack. Will be going back again.
