Grounds with pond (shared with owner). Cycle store. Electric car charging point (at cost). Private parking for 6 cars. No smoking. Please note: There is a fenced pond in the ground. . So much space surrounds The Granary - it stands in perfect rural seclusion, reached by its own tree-lined avenue, and is set on the edge of the owners’ sheep farm. It boasts a contemporary and calm interior design throughout, and the ground floor rooms are large and light filled. Comfortably furnished and equipped, it makes a superb holiday venue for large families or groups. Large floor-to-ceiling windows, the length of the property, enable outstanding views to be enjoyed across meadowland. From the sofas or the huge dining table, guests can watch sheep grazing lazily in the fields, observe the wildlife on the busy farm pond (fenced), and spot the barn owls which hunt from ancient oaks. Guests can use the wall-size map of Norfolk to plan days out and about in the surrounding area.
There are walks and trails to enjoy around the farm (with unfenced ponds). The spectacular unspoilt Norfolk coastline and traditional market towns of Swaffham, Ely and Kings Lynn, are within easy reach. Year-round there are activities and attractions for all ages including Gooderstone Water Gardens, Stowe Farm, Grimes Graves, Welney Nature Reserve, High Lodge Forest Adventure Park and Norfolk Cycle Way. There is a good cycling network of quiet lanes from the doorstep, and plenty of space to kick a ball, play cricket or practise frisbee skills. Shops, pubs and Oxburgh Hall (NT), 1 mile.

Lovely House
The house is very spacious and well equipped. The spiral staircase up to the two bedrooms is very steep and narrow, this could prevent some less able people accessing this area. It is too steep for younger children without very close supervision. The location of the house is very peaceful, great for a relaxing time together.

A beautiful house, comfortably furnished with some really lovely furniture. The welcome tray with home made cake was lovely. The spiral staircase was challenging for an adult with a suitcase but it did not spoil our stay.

Wow, we thought our last stay elsewhere was great but The Granary tops it hands down. The place was so well equipped with everything one needed with lots of extras. The location is in easy reach of main routes to visit other places of interest and the farm itself is lovely and peaceful. We would highly recommend The Granary

The Granary was set in a gorgeous rural location. It was a lovely property which has been masterfully refurbished, whilst the finishings remind you of its history as a granary. It was well equipped, comfortable and the owners were very helpful and accommodating.

A marvellous and cosy house with large windows facing nature.
A marvellous and cosy house with large windows facing nature. Warm and helpful welcome from Susie and Nick made the stay even better. A fireplace would have been the cherry on the cake but I appreciate it's not a common feature in old granaries :-)
