The Experience

In the grounds of Mill Farm where the owners live (he’s an ecologist, she’s an organic food specialist), is a big beautiful barn with space to spread out. Views reach over farmland while brick and flint walls and willow screens create privacy from next door; the big patio is a safe place for children. Enter an open-plan living room with vaulted ceilings and a bright airy feel; the central oak staircase winds you to the mezzanine and bedrooms above (two are up, two are down). Fossil-stone slabs line the floor, sleek leather sofas are deliciously comfy and children will love the hanging chair. Delightful Emma gives you a fabulous hamper (veg from the allotment, home-baked cake and more), logs for the wood-burner, and has a wonderful eye for colour and design. Bedrooms are spacious and calming, one with a balcony for sundowners; bathrooms are the bee’s knees. Hay Barn is close by – snug for two (and space for a little one) with a wood-burner and enclosed patch of garden. There are books, games, TV with surround sound, bikes to borrow and toddlers’ seats, and you can walk to pub, fish shop, small store and beach.

Reviews

Kath, Doncaster

We had a lovely week staying in the Haybarn including our cocker spaniel. Emma and Neil are so friendly and helpful. The beach is only 10 mins walk and Winterton beach is beautiful and quiet. The weather wasn’t great but we still managed to get out and about. We had a couple of lovely meals at the local pub Fishermans Return.


Wendy, St. Albans

In a lovely spot, near the beach and close to the Broads, we spent an idyllic week at the cosy and comfortable Hay Barn. Emma's very informative guide is highly recommended and will enhance your stay. Particular highlights were seeing marsh harriers on the 'wildlife tour', the historic wherry, Hathor on the River Ant and the secret garden at How Hill. So much to see and do.....and all within a short distance from Hay Barn. You will love it!


Veronica, Cheshunt

We had a wonderful stay at the Threshing Barn. It was very comfortable and well equipped. On arrival we had a basket which contained fresh bread, home made jam, apple juice, a very large cake and a jar of dog treats all of which were very welcome. It is an easy walk to the beach and an even shorter one to the Fisherman’s Return pub which is also dog friendly. Emma and Neil are great hosts and would highly recommend.


Sandra, Stratford-upon-Avon

We had a very relaxing stay at The Hay Barn. Emma and Neil were delightful and welcoming. The accommodation was excellent. Clean, warm, cosy and a beautifully comfortable bed. An enclosed garden, perfect for our little dog. Everything you needed including lovely thoughtful goodies. (Never had Quince Jelly before, delicious!). The Village of Winterton-on-Sea is pretty, idyllic and traditional. Close to the sea, lots of lovely walks. A chance to breath, slow the clock down and escape the rigours of life. We very much look forward to returning.


David, Coventry

Our three-generation gang had an absolutely fabulous week at the Threshing Barn. A great space for a family or group of friends. The welcome basket was very generous and Emma and Neil were wonderfully friendly and helpful. A lovely and fascinating part of the country with lots to see and do within easy reach.

Introducing

Emma Punchard

Emma (an organic food specialist) and Neil (an ecologist) live in the main house. They're committed to improving the land, have planted miles of hedgerows and over 2,000 trees. They try to keep their footprint as light as possible and have built the barns using sustainable materials - even your duvet is vegan. Emma has created a walking guide to the local area - 5 different graded walks.
