    The accommodation Cow Shed was so spacious and comfortable. A welcome cake on arrival went down well with a cup of tea in the room. We enjoyed opening the roof window and watching the sunset. Great location to be based for exploring along the coast.

    Everything! From the comfort and cleanliness of the lovely accommodation, the spaciousness of the Extra Special suites, the delicious and generous breakfasts (having the bowl of lovely fruit salad on the breakfast barn dresser was really appreciated as a healthy balance to the hearty Full English) to the thoughtful small touches of homemade cake and fresh milk to welcome you to your room, the experience of staying as a guest at Dairy Barns was wonderful. Thank you very much Hannah, Jill and team

    We stayed in one of the deluxe suites. The rooms were spacious and well equipped. The bathroom toiletries were lovely and there were plenty of towels. The small fridge was useful in the hot weather and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was amazing. There were the usual cereals, yogurts, fruit juices, toast and beverages. Every day there was a freshly made fruit salad and a large selection of cooked food, also home made waffles ! The staff were delightful.

    We felt right at home in super spacious family room. (cowshed) The location surrounded by fields full of wildlife (pheasants, rabbits, deer, cows) really made us feel like we were away from it all, yet only 30mins from Norwich. Great breakfast !

    Dairy Barns is definitely the BEST B & B. Hannah and the team have got everything just right to ensure that guests have an amazing stay. From the lovely warm welcome , to the perfect rooms and the most delicious breakfast. Nothing is too much trouble and there is lots of information available for the surrounding areas. We got married here in 2023 and came back in 2024 for our anniversary. We will definitely be back and can't recommend it highly enough.

    All the rooms are beautiful, but this time we stayed in the ‘Cow Shed’, an extra special room. Well it certainly was extra special, with a comfy lounge upstairs and beautiful bedroom and bathroom below. In the morning we chose to breakfast in the atmosphere of the hotel dining room. The cooked breakfast, with locally sourced products was perfect. Only a couple of miles from the sea, we were then able to see the first of hundreds of seal pups on the sand, before returning to our cosy cow shed.

    We stayed in the Cowshed. Very well designed room. It was our anniversary and the host had organised a bottle of bubbly and some pastries. A fabulous gesture. There was lot of information on places to visit and dine. We booked into the Ingham swan which was fabulous and highly recommended. The breakfast was in a very good barn setting with lot of variety. The host was very friendly and helpful and even provided us with an emergency iPhone charger! Highly recommend for short or long stays .
