Perfect…dog friendly … fabulous Barn…wonderful location
Bristows Barn is a wonderful place to stay with your family and dogs. Totally dog friendly, lots of space for everyone. The separate courtyard and garden are great for chilling any time of day. Weavers way is just across the lane, so quiet, we hardly saw any other walkers. Stephen the host was so helpful, we can’t wait to come back again in November.

Back Again!
Second year running we’ve stayed here. Great location, Stalham just 5mins away in the car or nice 30min walk down the weaver way. The barn is spacious, modern and comfortable, the dogs love it! We will definitely be back for a third time!

Great stay
We have just returned from our first visit to Norfolk, staying at the Bristow’s Barn and would highly recommend this accommodation and booking with East Ruston. The accommodation was beautiful and had everything you could possibly need. The location was brilliant for walking our four dogs and it was great to see our reactive boy having the time of his life, swimming in the sea and walking for miles without any distractions. We would also like to say a big thank you to Sue for sorting out some extra goodies and birthday banners for our arrival, it was very much appreciated.

Quiet and Relaxing
We had high expectations of Bristow’s Barn based on the photos and it did not disappoint. The location was perfect for us, it was quiet with excellent dog walks from the door. The barn was comfortable, warm and well equipped. The kitchen had everything you would want if you planned to cook rather than eat out. We very much look forward to our return visit later on this year.

Bristow's Barn East Ruston
We have just come back from a stay at Bristow's Barn with our daughter, 3 grandchildren and 4 dogs. A beautifully restored barn with plenty of room for us all. Ideal location, very short walk to Weavers Way and short drive to Bacton Woods, Bacton beach and Cart Gap. Stephen very kindly let us check in early which was very helpful.

Perfect for a quiet break away in the countryside
We loved the location- so quiet and a short stroll to Weavers Way and to Stalham. Big property - it was just two of us and the dogs so we only used downstairs. Dogs loved the grassy garden and the big courtyard. Very welcoming and friendly owner. We really enjoyed our stay at Bristows Barn.

A perfect retreat
Sue from East Ruston Cottages helped identify this as a suitable property (away from probable fireworks; secure garden for little and big dogs) - not only was it absolutely perfect with no firework noise at all and a lovely garden for dogs and humans, non-slip flooring, crates and stair gates provided, the Barn had everything you need for a comfortable holiday - a fully equipped kitchen, space, plentiful hot water, even throws for the settees, dog towels and toys. It was conveniently situated for local facilities in Stalham and lovely beaches and walks are a short distance away. Perfect accommodation in a lovely setting, definitely recommended!

Great place
A lovely place to stay for us and so dog friendly. The barn is spacious and the welcome pack much appreciated. The location means it's easy to walk from the door and also not far to drive to the north and east coast.

Relaxing stay with a reactive dog
We had the best time! We have a dog reactive dog and she was able to relax and enjoy walks around the area. She's not much of a beach pooch but there are plenty of walks from the doorstep that are quiet and just great walks. The barn itself is really clean, has everything you need. Plenty of space in the kitchen, beds are super comfy. Shower was really great and powerful too.

Great for nervous pups!
Fantastic dog friendly property - so much secure outside space, including the courtyard! Quiet location, barely a car passes the property overnight and only a handful through the day!

Beautiful Property
We have been visiting Norfolk with ERC for over 10 years & have watched Bristows Barn being restored so it was lovely to finally get to stay & it didn't disappoint! Huge spotless rooms, a beautiful kitchen & very much appreciated welcome pack. 2 outside areas for dogs (a large patio & a separate lawned area) & we had gorgeous weather so could sit out on the comfortable sun loungers. Overall we have had a lovely week in a very beautiful property in our favourite place.

Fantastic stay
What a perfect week we had in Norfolk made even better by the fabulous property we stayed in. Extremely dog friendly, we took five dogs and the fully enclosed garden was excellent as was everything else provided. We had one small issue with hot water one morning,resolved within half an hour. We will definitely return.

Already Booked Again!
This is our fourth time in Norfolk, this property is our favourite by far! Great location to get on to the Weaver Way and then 20/30 mins to other great areas for beaches and great walks The barn is modern, with a totally secure garden and totally secure yard. Total peace of mind, if you have loveable escape artists like us! Our only wish, would be a hot tub! Nevertheless, we booked again half way through our stay for next year!

Great place, location and host
We had a fabulous time at Bristow's Barn with our adult children plus partners. The Barn is beautifully equipped plus very comfortable and warm. The beds were extremely comfortable and the ambiance gave a cosy feel. We cooked a full on Sunday lunch plus trimmings with no problem. We had to pack and return early due to the death of a good friend and inadvertently left our salt and pepper set in the kitchen. Stephen was kind enough to post it back to us with no charge. Thank you Stephen, very kind.
