It’s hard to imagine Long Meadow’s former life as a milking parlour, with its huge oak-beamed sitting room, serene bedrooms and floor-to-ceiling windows. Sleeping up to eight, this extraordinary Norfolk holiday home rental personifies slow mornings and drawn-out evenings, with mesmerising views as your backdrop.
An incredibly spacious luxury barn for a more intimate gathering, Long Meadow sits at the centre of our ancient farm buildings, sleeping up to eight in a peaceful haven tucked away from the hustle and bustle of life. Lofty spaces, traditional flint walls and sky-high beamed ceilings are complemented by a clean, calm design that invites you to take a deep breath and relax.
With a huge living area framed by a floor-to-ceiling window and views of the Stiffkey Valley, Long Meadow is also an ideal option for groups seeking space for yoga classes and wellness retreats.
An open-plan kitchen leads to a dining area with a French-style table framed with architectural mirrors on one side, and a wonderfully large living area on the other, inviting you to relax on huge, squishy sofas and gather round the warming wood burner.
Four cosy bedrooms, including a fun bunk room for children, provide a quiet escape at the other end of the barn. Your large, dog-friendly walled garden with outdoor dining area and BBQ comes with views over the rolling hills just waiting to be savoured over a sundowner, while a door connecting this garden to High Barsham’s next door offers the chance to link two barns together, sleeping up to 20 for a stay to remember.
This apartment is located in Walsingham. The Granary Theatre and Bygones Museum are cultural highlights, and some of the area's attractions include Whin Hill Cider and Natural Surroundings. Woad Centre and Courtyard Farm are also worth visiting.
