We had a lovely holiday at the cattle sheds. It was very comfortable, warm, clean and in a lovely location. The owner was very friendly and welcomed us on our arrival .whilst on holiday at the cattle shed’s we visited the Grey seal colony at Horsey Gap, we also did a 6.2 mile walk in to North Walsham through Pigley”s wood from the barns. We walked on another day to the village of Trunch and visited the church and the crown pub. Its also in a great location to visit Felbrigg National Trust. We would definitely recommend this place.

Third visit booked — that says it all!This was our second stay at The Cattle Shed and we’ve already booked again for November — which really speaks for itself.The cottage is clean, comfortable and beautifully presented. It’s peaceful, well equipped and a perfect place to properly relax and switch off. We felt at home from the moment we arrived.Having now stayed twice, we can honestly say it has been consistently excellent. We’ve read other reviews and our experience matches the many positive comments — it’s a lovely place to stay and clearly very well cared for.We’re already looking forward to our third visit later this year.Highly recommended.
