Accommodation details

Discover the delights of rural Norfolk with a stay at this stunning converted barn in Briston. With its charming exposed brickwork and original beams throughout, it's a delightful spot for spending some quality time with friends and family. You'll have a shop and a pub within the village (0.5 miles) and plenty more amenities in nearby Holt (4.5 miles), where you can also board a steam train for a scenic ride within the Norfolk Coast National Landscape.

Inside, this beautiful property features solid oak flooring and stylish decor in cohesive shades. The spacious, light-filled rooms provide ample space for chilling out with loved ones.

A wet room and a double bedroom complete the downstairs, while two galleried bedrooms – a double, and a twin with additional pullout bed – are found upstairs, along with a family bathroom. If its good weather, take meals out to the front of the barn where a furnished gravelled area and BBQ await.
