  • Escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in this peaceful property in the heart of the Broads

Property code: OC-1995

This chic barn conversion sits within The Broads National Park in the quiet village of Runham. It’s the ideal holiday getaway for a small family plus two dogs wanting countryside walks, bicycle routes, and easy access to the coastline.

This end-of-terrace property dates back to the 1880’s but inside the rooms are thoroughly modern with the living space located upstairs so you can benefit from the countryside views. On the ground floor, you’ll find the two bedrooms featuring a super-king bed and a twin zip-and-link bed. Both rooms are wonderfully serene with cool tones, chic décor, and plenty of natural light. From the ground floor, stairs sweep up to the first floor and the spacious living area. Wooden beams, warm tones, and sumptuous sofas make it a comfortable space and there’s even a Chesterfield dog bed so your pup can snooze in style in front of the wood burner. When it’s time to eat, there’s an elegant dining table that overlooks the garden while the separate kitchen has every appliance you’ll need for a comfortable stay. Outside, enjoy a morning coffee in the rear courtyard or take it easy in the front garden with its table, chairs, and swing seat.

Enjoy countryside walks from the doorstep or pull on your hiking boots and jump on the Weavers’ Way footpath that runs for 61 miles from Great Yarmouth to Cromer. Keen cyclists can also spend the day exploring the 23-mile Broads Explorer loop. The beautiful sandy beach at Winterton-on-Sea (6 miles) is worth a visit while at Horsey (11 miles) you can watch the seals frolicking in the water.

What an amazing place to stay. We had a wonderful holiday exploring around the barn and further a field. Lots to do a short distance away. The Barn was so comfortable and relaxing with everything we needed. It was quiet and relaxing and certainly want to return.

This is a charming cottage set in a lovely part of the country. It is comfortable and well thought out. There is plenty to do and see in the area covering a huge range of options. A good choice.

Beautiful, Barn well-equipped loved the idea of the mini shop. The only negative is the neighbour and the tv noise/ shouting otherwise would definitely recommend. We would definitely go back and our puppy loved it.

The property is very tastefully decorated, it has almost everything you would need. The welcome pack was gratefully received too. The outdoor space is perfect for the dogs, it is enclosed by short wire fencing so they are secure. The parking spaces are a bonus. You are tucked away enough to enjoy the quiet whilst being a short drive to lots oRead moref busy seaside resorts. Our dogs are older so the walks were shorter, but there are plenty of places straight out of your front gate for lovely walks. Hide

Lovely quiet location, good walks around the area. Well appointed property had a lovely stay and will definitely visit again. Dog loved the chesterfield dog bed provided. Welcome treats were nice and the option to purchase more was a lovely idea. Fresh eggs and home maid jam available from a couple of houses in the village.
