The pond which ‘Commoners’ used as a water supply is now home to wild duck and heron. A walk down the green lane by the barn is a true escape into the English countryside. The red glow of the pantile roof is the first sight of the traditional black threshing barn.

Guest are warmly welcomed into this uncommercial and secluded retreat in the heart of South Norfolk. A separate wing of low barns has been thoughtfully and stylishly converted into two luxurious and romantic ensuite bedrooms, the emphasis being on privacy and comfort. Each has its own private entrance and terrace overlooking herbaceous beds, a lawn tennis court and open fields.
