Boat Barn Cottage

Description

Seriously stylish, sink your toes into this fabulous holiday home by the sea with a definite wow factor. Unwind, relax, keep calm and dream on. There are plenty of facilities for the whole family to enjoy with two sitting rooms, beautiful interiors, beamed and vaulted ceilings, ground floor bedrooms and a master suite on the first floor with views over the marshes to the sea. A year-round retreat, curl up by the impressive crackling woodburner on cooler days and enjoy the garden under sea blue skies when the weather is warmer.

The spacious garden to the rear of the house is pretty irresistible too. Cook up a summer soireé on the gas barbeque to enjoy al fresco eating or take to the shade under the summer house roof with a good book and a glass of fizz. If you are staying in the Garden Room, fling open the French doors and be calmed by the fresh sea air wafting in. Perfect for families and friends holidaying together, two of the bedrooms can be made up as zip and link beds – so all party sizes are easily accommodated in this fantastic coastal hideout.

Blakeney itself is a treasure trove of wonderful things to do. Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the coastal path and quayside are just a few moments’ walk from the barn. Sailing is available locally and there is even a Powerboat School if you want to give it a go! There are plenty of good places to eat in the village, art galleries and craft shops and a good local store. A treat at any time of the year is a trip to see the seal colony at Blakeney Point and catching crabs on the quayside is a happy way for the youngsters to while away their time. There are some stunning beaches nearby at Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham – vast sandy spaces set under huge blue skies, the sense of tranquility is palpable, both beaches have great local cafés so when the fun is done there is somewhere to relax before coming back to the barn.
