A modern masterpiece set in tranquil surroundings just 5 miles from the attractive market town of Dereham, it is the perfect base for a large family or group of friends who want seclusion but also easy access to a host of attractive villages across central Norfolk. Boasting well-appointed living areas, en-suite facilities and plenty of outside space for children and dogs, this magnificent barn is one to tell home about.

This single-storey barn showcases quirky and contemporary furnishings across its fresh and naturally-lit interior, creating a welcoming environment throughout the day. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner enjoys fantastic views of the garden through large windows and is a space for everyone to be together without feeling penned in. The handy utility room off the entrance hall is ideal for groups with a high turnover of kit. The barn offers four individually styled king-size bedrooms with electric ceiling fans, two of them en-suite, all with instant access to the garden. Watch the children and dogs tear around the partially-enclosed lawned garden from the comfort of the hot tub, set in a sunken circular patio, before joining together for a BBQ as the sun sets on another day well spent.

Enjoy a morning coffee or an afternoon pint on the way to stock up on essentials in the Mattishall (1 mile), a picturesque village typical of so many found in the heart of Norfolk. The market town of Dereham (5 miles) is home to a selection of shops and dog-friendly eateries. Mattishall Golf Club (within 1 mile) offers tree-lined greens and fairways suitable for novices and experienced golfers alike. Dogs and picnics can be taken to Dereham Windmill (6 miles), a beautiful Grade II-listed, 19th-century structure situated within beautiful grounds.

This was a fantastic stay for our family. The property was very private, quiet and peaceful which is never a guarantee in many properties. The property itself was done to a fantastic spec and had a plentiful supply of kitchenware. The garden was beautiful, and not currently represented in the pictures which does it a disservice. James was a great hRead moreost, helped settle us in and communicated quickly throughout when we messaged. Honestly couldnt have asked for much more. Had one or two minor electrical problems with the in-house systems which occurred the day prior to the stay but had no impact on our enjoyment of the place. Would definitely stay again and recommend. One of our best stays in the UK of ~20 Ive been to. Hide

This property is superb for groups with ample space for socialising indoors & out. The gardens are well kept and theres still lots of room to play ball with the dog or children. It runs off electric with a heat pump so the property is at a pleasant 20 degrees at all times. Quirky lights and electric blinds that all worked well. We cooked most nightRead mores and the kitchen is well equipped. The Green Dragon pub in wymondham does good food Weds - Sundays. Hide

Booked this cottage as a dog friendly break for 4 adults, 4 teenagers and 2 dogs. Lovely cottage, plenty of space, garden was excellent for the dogs and fully enclosed. Lots of high-tech features which caused much hilarity for the adults till the teenagers helped and we read the (very clear) instructions. The cottage is well placed for lots of NorfRead moreolk attractions, but we mostly enjoyed relaxing in the local area and the hot tub! Would happily visit again. Hide

An exceptional holiday property. Plenty of places to sit ( we were 7 people) and the bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious. The hot tub is brilliant, just a few steps off the patio area.
