Perfect for a small family and their canine companion, this adorable barn conversion offers an authentic taste of North Norfolk life. Set within a peaceful Glaven Valley village, it’s just 3 miles from upmarket Holt and 5 miles from Blakeney – both prime locations for waggy-tailed walks. Unwind in a secluded walled garden or enjoy gentle strolls along the leafy lanes on your doorstep.
Rustic charm flows throughout this attractive single-storey barn, with exposed wooden beams creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere and complemented by pine furnishings. The open-plan living area centres around a feature fireplace; your four-pawed pal will doze happily by the hearth as you settle down for some TV-time. At the other end of the room, the dining suite has elbow space for four; well-stocked bookshelves offer an alternative choice of after-dinner entertainment. Adjacent, and cleverly constructed to be partially open to the dining area, the kitchen houses all the must-haves of home. Once your furry friend is settled for the night, two cosy bedrooms beckon – one a double with its own washbasin, and the other a twin room. One of the beds here is a small single, so would be most suitable for a child. A family shower room completes the comfort. Outside, the enclosed walled garden with gravel and patio areas offers a secure space for your pet to potter while you chill-out in a choice of seating areas – the pergola provides an ideal spot for al fresco dining.
Follow country lanes north and after just 5 miles you’ll arrive at the tidal creek and ancient quay of Blakeney. Dogs are welcome on the boats that transport visitors from here to Blakeney Point, home to a thriving seal population. Well-behaved pets get a warm welcome, too, in Holt’s bustling town centre, which is full of cafes, bars, boutiques and galleries. Stock up on supplies and souvenirs or sniff out the 100 acres of woodland at nearby Holt Country Park. Alternatively, hop on the dog-friendly North Norfolk Railway to Sheringham (10.5 miles), a popular resort with plenty of space on the beach for you all to have a ball.
