“The Granary was a comfortable barn conversion with many interesting features.”

The area was very peaceful and we enjoyed many walks with our dog straight from the door. The owner was very pleasant and was around if anything was needed. Thank you for the bottle of wine and biscuits. Oxborough Hall National Trust was worth a visit and there were good local shops.

“Had a really lovely week at the Granary.”

This is ideal for a family with children or a couple. So peaceful and able to see the mares and foals. Lots of lovely places to go and explore, Beautiful country side. We were lucky to have wonderful weather which was a bonus. Would recommend a stay here for anyone and would like to think we'll be back next year.

Barbara September 2023

“Very comfortable cottage in rural Norfolk.”

Fenced small garden all round the boundary which is good for dogs. Helpful owner (Christine) who has a number of very friendly dogs, mostly retrievers. We enjoyed the comings and goings in relation to the horses and found the staff to be very friendly. We really relaxed and enjoyed ourselves. Good parking.

- Barbara, September 2023
Penelope September 2023

“A really delightful Cottage amongst a small race horse yard.”

It was great to watch the horses and mingle with the friendly family who gave us good advice for shady walks in the intense heat! One of our two dogs was a retired assistance dog. However maybe people need to be aware that there are four large dogs who could be a little intimidating if you are not used to dogs. We had dogs so maybe they would react differently with a family without. Very friendly and love to rush up and say hello.

Karen April 2023

“Lovely cottage located within a busy farm & stables for race horses.”

Lots of early morning vehicle movements, dogs barking and general farm activities so don’t expect a lie-in! Hingham village is 2 miles away and easily reached on foot. Lots of local shops and a hotel that serves huge scones!

- Karen, April 2023
Deborah April 2023

“Our four night break was lovely in this delightfully, quaint Granary.”

We have not slept so soundly for years! The family’s dogs were friendly and it was nice to see the horses too. Great location for main attractions, around 50 mins ( sometimes more , sometimes less depending on where you are heading) Norwich only around 20 mins away.

“Had a very restful stay in this lovely old cottage.”

Well equipped as well as fuel for log burner. The owner does have super friendly dogs wondering around her yard (this is in the listing) and it was a joy to see them come over and say hello. Great location for exploring Norfolk and easy to get into Norwich. Thanks for a enjoyable stay

Martin December 2022

“The owner greeted us with a warm welcome giving us Prosecco, chocolates & milk.”

It was fascinating to stay in a historic granary which had been modernised to a high standard. The cottage was comfortable, warm and very well equipped with a wood burner which was excellent. The enclosed garden at the edge of the paddock is ideal if bringing a dog and there are many walks nearby. It was delightful to see the race horses enjoying their exercise in the fields & the owner's dogs. Parking is good too next to the granary. The nearby village is attractive and has several shops and a pub where we had a meal. The location is good for visiting other parts of the county.

- Martin, December 2022
Alison December 2022

“Gorgeous cottage, quaint and atmospheric.”

Very quiet, too, even though it's on a working farm. Standards were high and the owner was lovely. Highly recommended.

- Alison, December 2022
Hilary October 2022

“I cannot speak highly enough of The Granary and its lovely owner.”

The cottage was spotlessly clean on arrival with some kind welcome gifts. The kitchen facilities and equipment were probably the best I've encountered after many years of self-catering. It is superb accommodation for a friendly dog: a wrap-around enclosed garden and the company of the owner's dogs who always want to say hello. The village of Hingham has a charming pub with a good menu. Spent a wonderful week here and would recommend without reservation.

- Hilary, October 2022
Richard October 2022

“Lovely Cottage in a peaceful and quiet setting.”

Parking directly outside the building. Highly recommended and I would not hesitate to book this property again. Clean and well maintained property with a large kitchen, adequate sitting room and two bedrooms. Lovely to see the horses in the fields with plenty of wildlife in the area. The shower was good and modern. Double bed I slept in was very comfortable. Hingham is a lovely small village with an excellent new Co Op shop to use and so convenient to reach different parts of Norfolk.

“We had a really lovely stay at the Granary.”

Christine is lovely, friendly and welcoming. The Granary is very cosy and has everything you need. We enjoyed the bottle of wine that was left for us. We loved being on the farm and seeing all the horses and some that were in training. The dogs were very friendly and loved the attention we gave them. We will be booking again for next year. We love the Granary and it’s story. Thank you for a lovely week.

- Kelly, June 2022
Victoria June 2022

“Lovely cottage with great location.”

Great to have racehorses on site and see them on the gallops. Dogs were super friendly, shame ours wasn't!! Great base for relaxing and visiting Norwich and coast. Everyone very friendly and helpful and really enjoyed our stay in the beautiful Granary with stunning roses. Shame had to leave early due to work/traffic issues.

- Victoria, June 2022
Paul April 2022

“Fantastic place, easy to find and clean.”

If you like horses you'll like it here too. Warm and friendly. About an hour to closes seaside, local shop about a mile walk. Dereham about 8 miles away has everything you could need. Booked for next year already.

- Paul, April 2022
Maureen April 2022

L January 2022

“We really enjoyed our long weekend at the Granary, although did feel that the property could benefit from a bit of TLC.”

Some of the fixtures and fittings were a bit tired and the beds had seen better days. It was cosy and warm though and fitted the bill for us. We enjoyed the log burner in the evenings and visiting the horses in the afternoons. Thank you. P.S. A small dishwasher would be a bonus!
