Extra Amenities

This great property boasts lovely original features and all the modern conveniences required for a great stay. Laurel Barn is situated within a small, residential barn conversion complex, in a lovely setting. It has masses of character and the owner has combined the many original features with a light and airy modern feel, making this a great choice whatever your taste. The enclosed garden has hedging, a 3ft fence and a sitting-out area next to the hot tub which is perfect for soaking away the after effects of a busy day’s sightseeing.

Laurel Barn enjoys the perfect position from which to explore the area. Close by lies the bustling market town of Wymondham, which offers lots of great places where you can eat and shop, along with an indoor swimming pool and leisure centre. It is worth taking the time to visit picturesque Wymondham Abbey, a magnificent Norman church established in 1107 as part of a monastic foundation.

Why not spoil yourselves and enhance your stay by booking a spa experience or even a special afternoon tea, all from the comfort of Laurel Barn (available by direct arrangement with the owner)?

You can be in the medieval city of Norwich within 20 minutes, and here you will find the finest standing example of a Norman castle in the whole of the UK, along with a magnificent Norman cathedral, various museums, theatres, art galleries and a full range of leisure activities. The city boasts numerous lanes and alleys full of quirky shops, as well as two indoor malls, many cafés and fine dining restaurants.

The surrounding countryside provides endless opportunities for cycling and walking. For a change of pace, head to Thetford Forest and High Lodge, a recreational site with walks and cycle routes, along with more challenging mountain bike trails and the ’Go Ape’ treetop adventures.

In just 30 minutes you can be at Wroxham, the gateway to the Norfolk Broads, where you can charter a day boat or join an organised tour. The North Norfolk coast can be reached within a 40-minute drive, or you can explore the east coast at picturesque Winterton, where you can see grey seals in their natural environment, and Great Yarmouth, where you will discover all the fun of the fair and glorious beaches. Head south to Southwold with its Victorian pier, or even a spot of crabbing at Walberswick, all under 30 miles from the barn. Add in several National Trust properties, excellent museums, birdwatching, zoos, golf and fishing, and you will soon see why this part of Norfolk is so popular with guests who return year after year.
