This contemporary yet cosy barn conversion in North Norfolk boasts the perfect blend of old and new – exposed flint panels, traditional wooden floors and an antique farmhouse-style pine table combined with modern fixtures and furnishings. You’ll love sitting down for breakfast in the light-filled kitchen-dining room before treating yourself to a long hot soak in the tub. Enjoy preparing home-cooked family favourites on the wooden worktops in the kitchen and dining alfresco in the garden, surrounded by hand-woven willow fencing and pretty seaside planting. At the day’s end linger for a nightcap under the stars, your four-legged friend at your feet, or settle down for movie night on the eminently loungeable leather sofas in the living room. Located in the charming seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea, a mere stone’s throw from the quay, you’ll be perfectly set up for a spot of crabbing, a stroll along Staithe Street with its butchers, bakeries and boutiques, and a day at the sandy beach followed by fish and chips at one of the local pubs.
