This charming barn conversion borders the Blakeney National Nature Reserve, where you’ll find sprawling wetlands, sand beaches and the area's native seals. If you’re hoping to visit the seals, Blakeney Point is home to both the common seals during the summer months and grey seals during the winter. There's something for everyone on this stretch of the North Norfolk Heritage Coast, no matter if you prefer sea swimming or walking along the shore with the dog. Try your hand at crabbing, visit the 15th-century brick-vaulted undercroft of Blakeney Guildhall, or soak up the rural mentality with lunch in a cosy local pub. After a long day exploring your Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there's no better spot to unwind than this inviting homestead. Select a bottle of wine from the wine cooler and sink into the cushy sofa with a book from the shelves, or rustle up a comforting dinner with the local produce you picked up from the fishmonger. This beamed and contemporary space has a calm and characterful feeling – gather around the dining table for coffee and board games or plan today’s hiking route. In the summer, host leisurely breakfasts outside in the morning sun and dine alfresco... under the evening stars.
