  This is a lovely "studio" barn conversion.

  Equipped with everything you need, unless you plan to do gourmet cooking. The WiFi works, not always the case when out in the countryside, the bed is comfy (again not always so) and the small patio area ideal for breakfast or afternoon tea. Downsides, none of which are serious, but just so you know. The lane leading to the farm is narrow and twisty and one of the locals seem to be training for a rallying event. We met him once and afterwards Max (the owner) gave us advice on an alternative route out to the main road. The shower is not the best, but does the job, as it's an "instant heat" model not a mains power shower, but the cubicle is large and not one where you keep bashing your elbows. The lighting in the kitchen area is "subdued" and could do with at least one bright light. Max is a character, helpful and always on hand with friendly advice.

  We loved the little barn and found it such a pleasing place to stay in. We kept finding new clever things which had been done. It was very comfortable and very peaceful indeed and the information was all at hand. We are both very elderly and some of the modern equipment needs puzzling out. We know N.Norfolk well, loved the primrose banks and the newly ploughed fields. Sadly our families were very worried about us with the coronavirus and we decided to leave 2 days early to calm them down... I think back on Wheelwrights barn with sadness and wonder in these hard times! So sorry we did not manage to set the alarm when leaving - but I did tell you as soon as we got home. We wish all of you at Norfolk Hideaways all the very best! Stay safe.

  Nice location.

  As soon as we arrived the owner came into the cottage with the a list of rules.He could have left them with us to read in our own time,but decided to go through each rule while standing there,emphasising as if we were children,he also said if we break the rules we will be sent packing !!.Good way to start your holiday !.Also said the gate will be locked at 10pm,so here's the code to open/close the gate.Also told strick rules in making sure all our rubbish,was to be separated.We are on holiday !.Disappointed only 1 3 drawer unit,no wardrobe,all clothes had to be left in suitcases.He also had the habit of just walking into the cottage without asking,we found this very intrusive.Would not return to this property.

  This was an absolutely delightful find! Tucked away in the small hamlet of Sustead, off the beaten track, Wheelwright proved to be the perfect getaway for us and our dog! The barn was decorated and furnished to the highest of standards and the enclosed courtyard was a great addition for the dog! You do need to have a car in order to get out and about to explore the surrounding countryside and beaches, of which there are many. Also bring the daily supplies you need, as the nearest shop is a good ten minute drive away. It worked so well for us, we had a super relaxing week, walking and chilling. And the barn added to this beautifully.

  Arrived to a warm welcome from the owners.

  Throughout the holiday it was nice to see the owners around the farm to give a friendly wave or a chat. We’ve stayed places where you are ignored. It was lovely to watch the horses training in the mornings come rain or shine and also to watch the herd of Sika deer explore the farm in the evening. The barn is warm and cosy with everything you could possibly need for your stay. This is a great location for exploring the area. An hour from the beach and half an hour from multiple walks at Thetford forest. We’d recommend the water gardens at Gooderstone for a tranquil walk.
