The Old Butcher's Stores, Heacham, Norfolk

Effortlessly relaxed, this luxury detached open-plan two bedroom, two en-suite barn conversion has exposed oak beams and lofty ceilings which complement the retro style furnishings and individual flair which the owners have so cleverly introduced into this bespoke conversion, which is in easy reach of the beach and perfect for a short break or longer stay.

If romance and privacy are high on your list, then this gorgeously rustic luxury self-catering abode, located in the bustling little village of Heacham on the North West Norfolk coast, might just be what you've been looking for.

Formerly the old stores, which served the Old Butcher's Shop (also available to rent in conjunction with the The Old Butcher's Stores) this stylish property has been in the same family for the last 100 years. Having been painstakingly restored, it has been transformed into a stunning Norfolk Hideaway, quietly tucked away, but within easy walking distance of amenities, pubs, restaurants and two beaches.

Ideal for one or two couples or a small family wanting a relaxing weekend or longer holiday to explore and indulge in the captivating North Norfolk coast, it has two en-suite bedrooms which have private access to two separate courtyard gardens. The large open-plan kitchen/dining/living room is perfect for socialising and preparing supper, before retiring to one of the two reception areas where you can watch television or snuggle down in front of the cosy wood burning stove. With two reception rooms to relax in and two large bedrooms with sumptuous linens, your dreams promise to be sweet ones too.

On sunny days relax in one of two courtyard gardens, read the newspapers and chill-out with a coffee and plan a busy day of exploring the coast; or head to The Norfolk Deli or Thornham Deli where you can stock up on picnic provisions and head to the beach! The Old Butcher's Stores offers parking in a gated private courtyard for up to two cars.

Lovely find
The butchers store was a last minute booking for us and upon arrival, we found it ticked all boxes. The property feels very fresh and has most of the accoutrements you would find in your own house. It is in a great location for exploring the Norfolk coast and other tourist spots. I would recommend it to anyone and it will comfortably accommodate 4 adults.

Accommodation
Very well equipped. Showers are excellent. Fridge, cooker all lovely and clean and plenty of room for cooking and keeping items fresh in the fridge. Was lovely to be able to sit outside in sheltered walled garden, not overlooked to sit at table with family with snacks and cold drink.
Stayed 4 nights in May 2024

Home from home
We had a lovely relaxing stay. The accommodation was very warm comfy and quiet everything you needed for a home from home experience. It is easy to get to lots of places from here, we used the local bus service to go to Wells. You can get to Sandringham by bus also if you want to have a break from driving.

Beautiful Home from Home
What a lovely cottage! We felt right at home the moment we walked through the door. Beautifully designed, tastefully decorated and just enough of the fabric of the original building left to give great character to the cottage. Everything we could have wished for and more!

Quiet and comfortable bolt hole
Very cosy and comfortable converted butcher's store in a quiet location. Beautifully furnished and well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Close to shops, near beaches and within easy reach of excellent bird watching sites.

Weekend Away
Me and my partner had a last minute change of travel plans due to Coronavirus. So we decided to come to Norfolk for the weekend and it did not disappoint. The Butchers Store is incredible, amazing design inside and out. We didn't want to leave! We will definitely be returning. Thank you so much for having us.

Great place to stay with good access to places to visit. Beach cafe at Old Hunstanton is outstanding. My only complaint is the grills on the outside of the bathroom extractors were very noisy. I know it was windy but a fixed grill, like the kitchen extractor would be much better. Directions good but the entrance is Heacham Butchers not The Old Butcher’s. Bit confusing, especially in the dark!

Excellent!!
What a beautiful cottage! Located fantastically just off the highway street but tucked away quietly. The courtyard on entry is lovely and there is another one too! The layout is fantastic, open plan but with a cozy feel. Two en-suite bedrooms and very warm from the underfloor heating but also a log burner too! The biscuits were a lovely touch and milk in the fridge in arrival. No expense has been spared. Lovely rustic touches throughout. Comfy beds, quality towels and wonderful showers. I think the bedrooms need a small wardrobe each rather than wall pegs but really that isn’t even a negative for this cottage. Only 1 mile from the beach, local Tesco, Lidl, chippy, pubs and takeaways, the Lavender Farm is only up the road offering great food too. Loved this place and we will go back!!

Stunning property in a stunning location
The owners have spared no expense with this property. It's absolutely stunning and all the little touches to the decor made it. The shower in the bathroom was amazing and the beds are super comfy. The location of the property is in quiet Heacham and only a few minute walk to tesco for groceries. There are so many attractions nearby and its great just to walk around the actual little town, which is so pretty. I didn't want to leave the property and would love to stay there again. I've even taken pictures of the kitchen as want to update my kitchen like theirs! I loved it that much :)

Perfect first family holiday
As new parents this year, we were nervous about travelling with a Baby . This property took all our worries away and became a home from home. Family friendly, yet still luxurious, and perfect location to attractions to entertain our little one.

Beautiful cottage
Cannot praise the cottage enough. A beautiful mixture of old and new decoration and a great sense of space. Everything we needed for a restful holiday. Lovely bakery just up the road for great fresh bread and cakes. Also very good fish and chip shop about five minutes away. So many beautiful places to visit. Hope to be able to visit again one day. Highly recommended.

A beautiful restaoration in a great location for visiting all Norfolk has to offer.
This property is of an exceptionally high standard and the owners have given great thought to the layout and making sure you have everything you need to enjoy a relaxing break. We loved returning to the property after a day of exploring. We were within a short drive of Sandringham, Wells next the Sea ( which is a stunning beach) and just an hours drive to Norwich city centre. We cannot recommend this property enough as a base in Norfolk. We will definitely be booking again.

Gorgeous holiday cottage
This cottage has been designed beautifully and has everything you could possibly want. All the kitchen equipment is great and of very high quality. The property is private and self contained behind walls, and we had super weather. This meant that we could open up the bi fold doors in both the living area and the lounge, and bring the outside in. It was smashing. So much to do in the local area around, with Norfolk Lavender just across the road, and Sandringham estate, Hunstanton and Heacham beaches.

Perfectly peaceful getaway
We absolutely loved our stay at the old butchers stores. We felt so relaxed and at home as soon as we walked through the door. Particularly loved the bed! Haven’t slept so well in a long time. I didn’t want to leave, could’ve easily stayed another week.

A great place to stay
The Old Butcher’s Stores is a great place to stay: clearly, there’s a lot of thought gone into creating this lovely holiday home. It’s got a lot going from it: beautifully decorated & furnished, really well appointed - a great place to stay in any weather. Heacham is a large village with some facilities in easy reach of the wonderful North Norfolk coast.
