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

Susan, Woodbridge

The Hay Barn was a wonderful bolt hole for our stay in Norfolk. We especially enjoyed the walks from the barn, seeing the seals, walking on the beach, dunes and broads knowing we were coming back to a cosy barn - the underfloor heating kept us warm. Loved the goodies left for us and hope to come again.

This was our first visit to the Ecobarn and we had a wonderful time. The accommodation was very comfortable, spacious and very well equipped. It was a treat to have a bathroom for each room. We went to celebrate my mother’s 100th birthday and the wet room was ideal for her as was the easy wheelchair access. The generous welcome pack included a delicious cake. The accommodation is within walking distance of a marvelous sandy beach and the Broads are just a short drive away, as is the beach at Horsey gap and its seals. Thank you to Emma and Neil for a warm welcome and such a comfortable stay!


Sue, Kirkby Lonsdale

Our second visit to the barn & once again a relaxing time, just too short, we didn’t want to leave. Lovely to see Emma again & a bonus when she brought us a sun dried tomatoes loaf that she’d sourced, along with a huge cake. Great recommendations for food out & even though the weather wasn’t great, a good walk on the beach & lots of log fires, tv, wine & good company


Graham, Staffordshire

Thank you Emma and Neil for a fab stay in the Hay Barn. Location is perfect with walks from the doorstep and they always end on the beach. Dogs loved their vacation and the treats on arrival left for them. Will definitely be back.


Kelly, Hertfordshire

What a wonderful gem to have found. On arrival I loved the little touch of the chalk board welcoming us to our holiday. On entering the Barn we were greeted with a basket of goodies and a very yummy cake! You can tell they are parents as they have thought of everything meaning you don't need to pack the contents of your own house just to go on holiday. We all had ample room to enjoy the house & it's surroundings. The house is clean & comfortable.. a home from home. There is a games barn now which is fab and even chickens to feed. Highly recommend a stay here :)
