About this property

Kingfisher Barn, Sleeps 10+2 (5 Bedrooms)

Kingfisher, named after the kingfishers we see on the securely fenced moat from time to time has a porch which leads through a stable door to an open plan living/dining area with a dining table, 12 chairs, a high chair, comfortable sofas (one of which is a sofa bed) and a log burner for cold winter evenings. There is a large flat screen TV with freeview, DVD player and surround sound home cinema. There is a fully equipped kitchen with range cooker, microwave oven and washer/dryer plus a large American style fridge freezer for your convenience. There are two en-suite double bedrooms with zip and link beds on the ground floor and also a separate loo. Upstairs there are two super king sized beds and another spacious zip and link bedroom. These three bedrooms are easily large enough to add a zed bed if required which we do supply as well as a travel cot.

3 adjoining pet friendly barns have been sympathetically converted to provide spacious and comfortable accommodation. We provide free wifi, oil fired central heating, range cookers, enclosed and private walled gardens, private parking and built-in barbecues. There are no steps to get into the properties and some double en-suite rooms on the ground floors for those who may struggle with steps. We are happy for pet owners to walk their dogs on leads around the farm where there are great opportunities for bird watching. The barns are situated on the farm itself with views over open countryside and the lovely Sculthorpe Church on the driveway.

Great property in great location
Great property for staycation. Bedrooms all really good size with comfortable beds. The zip lock twin bed set up worked perfect for us. Living space is great and works really well. There was an issue with the oven which impacted us being able to eat all together so hoping the owners can get that fixed for future rentals asap.

40th celebrations
Having had our holiday in Poland cancelled at late notice we booked and added the hot tub, we really cannot fault this accommodation.... everything you can think of has been catered for, an idyllic escape from reality. Can’t wait to return with our staffy this time as the gardens are really secure and we regretted not bringing him with us this time!!! Thanks so much

Half term holiday with attitude
Wonderful atrtactive child and dog proof barn conversion surrounded by bits of moat and wonderful farmland. Close to an interesting church and a village play area for smaller children with a zip wire. On the way to the coast is a microbrewery!! . You are close to so many interesting sites. We crabbed at Wells, went to the Visitors Centre at Saltmarsh and the stony beach at Cley, walked miles along Holkham beach where the children dipped in the cold North Sea water. Even the 5 year old enjoyed the 8Km walk at Sheringham where dogs can be free off a lead in places. The welcoming gifts at the Barn was lavish. We enjoyed the wine and chocs and after a long journey the other items were well appreciated. Very thoughtful owners who give immediate response to queries. The baby ducks on the moat kept the smaller children amused but the dogs had to be well restrained!!! The Games Room was a boon when it rained. I even had a chance at 74 to show I could still play pingpong competitively!! Thanks come from all of us 8 visitors with 2 dogs....

Mums 80th Birthday Celebration
We had a fantastic time and as we had all 3 barns we felt luxuriously spacious, extremely comfortable and while having lovely meals all together there was time and space to cluster into smaller gatherings. Everything was well thought out, very clean and well equipped. We also had the Sat night meal catered by Mange Tout which was excellent quality and value.We would definitely go back but its already booked. Thanks for adding the perfect benue to our lovely family celebrations. All the staff I have corresponded with have also been incredibly helpful. My only slight confusion was the system for payment as this was complicated and felt quite automated a little like the request for this review coming 3 times and so I presume its computer generated and as far as some of us are concerned personal is best Jo B

A lovely property. Everything that you need for your stay.
Our stay was perfect. From comfortable beds to sitting watching tv by the log burning stove. I would definitely recommend it.

Beautiful cottages, beautiful location,
Fantastic for our group of 30. Wonderful space to dine altogether. Very clean and well maintained, the owner was very helpful from booking to greeting us. The cottages were lovely and spacious, with en suites to every room. The welcome pack was first class and included bacon, eggs, wine and delicious sweets. Never had that before. I would recommend these cottages to everyone. Well placed for beaches etc we would like to come next year please

About the host

Hosted by Tony Pointer

Host profile image
I am Tony Pointer, farmer and now self catering accommodation owner aswell. After transfering the old grain barns and pig yards into my name in 2007, it has been my task to make these barns into the accommodation that our own family would be happy to stay in, and i think with my wifes help we have succeeded. I also enjoy meeting all those that stay in the barns and taking on their comments about the barns, which fill me with the confidence that we have got most things right(if not always the weather!).

Why they chose this property

Having been born and brought up,and being the third generation on this family run farm, it was my ambition to convert these old barns which were starting to fall down. I felt that entertaining people instead of mucking out pigs was a better option for the future after going through the difficulties brought on by foot and mouth twice and swine flu outbreaks in the countryside.
There are so many lovely things about the North Norfolk coast that i find it hard to tear myself away from this area, and i hope those that stay here will take home some life long memories.

What makes this property unique

These barns are built so that each barn can contain each family seperately, but also if all barns are booked together the people staying can enjoy the group feeling, as we can hire out marquees and bouncy castles especially for the warm weather periods.
There is ample parking space and a large grassed area at the end of the barn for all to play on.
