The barn is set in over an acre of ground with a wildflower meadow, a large natural pond and mature trees. The village of Binham is nearby with a local shop and newsagent, petrol pumps, a good butcher, and a pub serving food.

Binham
This beautiful historic little village is well situated within gently rolling countryside above the valley of the river Stiffkey. Binham is just 2 ½ miles from the North Norfolk coast and 9 miles from the market town of Fakenham.
Holiday cottages in Binham range in sizes and some have features such as open fires and internet access. Kett Country Cottages have a range of holiday cottages in North Norfolk ranging in size and stye with something to suit every taste and budget. In the village you will find the ruins of a Benedictine Priory founded in 1091 which has a magnificent surviving west front with an Early English arch – a rarity in East Anglia.
There is a very unusual (but very ‘Norfolk’) shop at the garage in Binham (with one petrol pump), with it’s unusually juxtaposed but useful stock – from organic porridge oats to waders and gun cartridges! There is also a good butchers with a small selection of fruit and veg and opposite is the Chequers Inn with it’s own micro-brewery.
