Enjoyed a very happy week in this good location for visiting nature parks, homes, gardens, and North Norfolk coast and countryside. Very cold Northerly winds were unfortunate for us, but Wanstead Barn was warm to return to. Short farm-track to Barns is well maintained, and the absence of town or traffic noise a delight. (lots of bird sounds & occasRead moreional RAF flyover). Views over adjacent Wheat (?) fields wonderful. Only aware we had a neighbour by presence of their cars. Morrisons store close. Hide
