Situated in the picturesque village conservation area of Burnham Market, close to the beautiful North Norfolk Heritage Coast with its miles of soft sandy beaches. Barley Cottage is near the village green, yet in a peaceful backwater, it is just a few minutes walk from the local shops and restaurants, including ‘The Hoste’, making it the perfect venue for a relaxing holiday.

The cottage has been converted from the original Maltings building and its attractive flint and brick exterior is complimented by the wealth of exposed beams inside. In Summer the sun floods through the cottage and meals can be enjoyed outside, whilst in Winter it is warm and cosy indoors. There are night storage or electric heaters in all the rooms and in addition an electric fire in the sitting room. All electricity is included in the rental price.

Barley Cottage is a much loved second home. Our whole family, children and grandchildren all regularly visit the cottage and we all find it a great place to relax and unwind - walking, crabbing, bird watching, kite flying or just playing in the sand. Enjoying the local coastal restaurants and visiting Holkham. The beautiful Norfolk coast is as magical in Winter time as it is in high season. Miles of sandy beaches and vast fields with huge skies full of migrating birds at certain seasons of the year. From the cottage we enjoy walking along footpaths and ancient tracks leading down to the coast or we are just a few minutes by car from several amazing beaches. Tennis, golf and sailing activities are all accessible locally. We are spoilt for choice of food - wonderful local produce, fresh seafood, farm shops as well as many renowned restaurants both in Burnham Market and right along this stretch of coast. The great estate of Holkham with its many visitor events is nearby as well as other stately homes including Houghton Hall and Sandringham to name but a few. We count ourselves very lucky that the majority of our guests return each year and feel like old friends.
