Gather with friends, family and a duo of dogs at this gorgeous 19th-century barn that has been thoughtfully converted into a charming rural retreat. Enjoy lovingly preserved original features, a cosy wood burner and a spacious garden complete with a BBQ and fire pit.

Discover a unique blend of old and new in this captivating barn conversion. The striking dark exterior gives way to a bright and spacious interior, with soaring vaulted ceilings and white walls creating a light-filled oasis. Original beams, quirky features, and hardwood oak and cherry flooring honour the property''s history as a carpenter''s workshop and add a touch of rustic character. Step into the boot room to shake off muddy shoes and coats before entering the open-plan living space, perfect for cooking up a feast or simply relaxing by the wood burner that’s sure to be popular with the furry members of your group too! Choose between two cosy chairs in the living room or sink into the plush seating of the first-floor lounge, complete with exposed beams overhead and a TV to catch up with your favourite shows. The property boasts three bedrooms, including a king-size with an en-suite alongside a twin room on the ground floor, with another king-size en-suite room on the first floor. A ground-floor shower room offers added convenience. Take in the great outdoors from two delightful garden areas with plenty of space for a game of fetch. Light up the BBQ for a summer evening feast, then gather around the fire bowl for cosy nights spent reminiscing and stargazing.

Situated on the historic Ketteringham Hall Estate, enjoy the great outdoors and explore the woodland and parkland surrounding the property with Rover by your side. This peaceful rural location is just 7 miles from Norwich city centre, where you can enjoy the cathedral, museums, galleries and quirky, independent shops. For something more peaceful, take a stroll on the Marriott Way, one of the longest off-road routes in the country, with plenty for your hounds to investigate. This tranquil trail winds its way through glorious countryside and picturesque villages, following the route of an old railway line that linked Aylsham and Reepham with Norwich.

Stunning property in an excellent location, quiet but still close enough to amenities to be convenient. Probably the best equipped rental home I have stayed in, with everything to hand that you could possibly need. Would serve equally well as a base for exploration or as a weeks quiet hideaway. Excellent communication from the owner prior to our Read morestay, giving us full instructions for hot tub care and operation, plus other useful information. Cannot recommend this property highly enough. Hide

We had a fantastic week at Pelican Barn, with the options to sit upstairs or downstairs and the addition of a small table and chairs in the kitchen area not to mention the outdoor areas you are spoilt for choice. The kitchen was stocked with every item you might need and more, the beds are extremely comfortable and the location is fantastic, the fiRead morere pit in the garden is a great addition which we used every evening, we also enjoyed watching the birds in the garden whilst we ate our breakfast.. As six adults sharing the property we had three large cars and there was plenty of space for them all. This is an outstanding property that feels like home, if we return to the area we would defiantly book again. we were also greeted by the owner on arrival which was really nice. Hide
