Colts Barn Reviews

James
The owner was really friendly and helpful, definitely coming back soon!
Emma
Really loved the peaceful setting of the place, it’s super well stocked and comfy. Just wish the house rules didn’t make us feel so tense, even though I’d follow them anyway.
Sarah T.
We had a lovely stay overall. The house is beautifully decorated and well equipped, though the worktops are a bit delicate-nothing wet can be left on them, which caught us out a few times. The garden and hot tub are fantasticand the location is truly stunning. Our dogs couldn’t go upstairs, which was a slight hassle since they sleep in crates, but we understood the rules. It would be nice if the worktops were a bit more durable, but all in all, a great place to unwind. We’d definitely come back!
Harriet
We had a fantastic time at Colts Barn! It had everything we wanted for a relaxing week-close to the coast and plenty of charming pubs serving tasty food and local beers. The garden with the hot tub was perfect for unwindingand the peaceful setting was just what we needed. Definitely planning to come back soon!
Mark
We loved our stay here! The garden was perfect for our dogs, totally secure and spacious. The house itself was stunningand the owners couldn’t have been more helpful. Definitely recommend!
Tommy
Really enjoyed the stay, would come back!
Emma
We loved Sloley Barn! It’s beautifully decorated and super comfy, plus the garden and hot tub are such a treat. Only thing missing was somewhere to hang clothes, which was a bit of a pain. No welcome pack either, just tea and coffee. Overall, a great spot, perfect for exploring the Broads.
Emma Carter
Really enjoyed our stay at this lovely converted barn. Plenty of room for the six of us and our dog. Well-equipped and in a great spot to explore Norwich or head to the coast easily.
Emma
The place was really cosy and peaceful, though finding it was a bit tricky without signs. It’s close to shops and amenities, but don’t forget to bring your own milk since there’s no welcome pack!
Mark
The house was charming and the garden perfect for relaxing. We loved the peaceful vibe and friendly neighbours, plus it’s just a short drive to gorgeous beaches. Had a wonderful week and definitely plan to return!
Emma
The cottage was spotless and the owners were really friendly. The new rope rail on the stairs to the master bedroom is a great touch! Would stay again.
James
We had a lovely stay! The owners were really welcoming, the place was well equippedand our dog loved it too. The week just flew by, thanks so much!
Emily
The place is in a fantastic spot and really charming. We didn’t mind the construction noise nearby since we were out most of the day, but they do get started early, so if you're a sleeper-in, be warned - it might wake you up! Still, a lovely stay overall.
George
The house feels fresh and modern, packed with character. It’s super clean, well-keptand the enclosed garden was perfect for our dog. Great spot!
Emma
We loved the cottage! Plenty of space for all six of us, super tidyand the kitchen had everything we needed. Perfect spot to explore the broads or hit the seaside. Peter was a great host-friendly and helpful. Had a fantastic holiday and definitely plan to return!
Sarah
Charming little place, lovely gardenand kitchen had everything we needed. Nice!
Emily Carter
We had such a lovely time at the barn! The refurbishment was top-notch, really stylish and cosy. The owners were super friendly and just a quick call away if we needed anything. The garden was perfect for sunbathing and letting the dogs run free. Having a downstairs bedroom and bathroom was a lifesaver for my dad, who struggles with stairs. The hot tub and peaceful surroundings made it feel really special. All the rooms were spaciousand the beds super comfy. Definitely a stay we'd recommend-truly memorable!
Emma Carter
We stayed at this charming barn conversion nestled in a peaceful rural spot. The place really has everything you could need, with plenty of space indoors and a safe, enclosed garden perfect for dogs or kids. The outdoor seating area was lovely for relaxingand the hot tub looked spotless and inviting-shame the weather wasn’t warm enough for us to enjoy it! Nice little touches like flip flops for guests added to the experience. Big thanks to the owners and caretaker for their kindness. We’d definitely recommend it!
Emma
Really enjoyed the stay, the place was spotless and cosy. The garden and hot tub made it perfect for unwinding after busy days.
Jessica
We had a lovely stay at this house! It’s super clean and tastefully decorated, making it feel really cosy. The hot tub was such a treat after a day out. Perfect location for exploring local sights and pubs. The owner was really helpful too. We’d definitely come back and recommend it to friends!
