Snowy Owl Barn

We didn't get the snowy owl barn, it was already taken, but there was one empty next door, Tawny owl.

So we had that barn. The owners were very nice and always polite and friendly.

Excellent accommodation - very comfortable and clean.

Lovely view across the fields from terrace. Great location for exploring this part of the world. Very friendly owners - will definitely visit again.

We enjoyed our stay at Snowy Owl Barn.

We enjoyed our chats with the owner Max and he was very helpful of where to go for the day and where to eat. The Barn was very clean and comfortable and everything provided. Jane

Lovely property very peaceful location lovely friendly owners two lovely dogs and three horses couldn’t have picked a better place to unwind would definitely return as was such a relaxing location

A fantastic well kept property.

Our holiday was made all enjoyable by friendly owners who went out of their way to welcome us. They were hard working and were never put out by our interruptions to their daily routine. The eggs and cakes went down well!!!

A lovely place to spend a relaxing holiday.

Thanks for making us very welcome on our stay enjoyable and relaxing. Accommodation would benefit from access to EV charging and I believe this would be a good extra incentive to book this wonderful accommodation.

Very nice and helpfull owners, very quiet, nice location surrounded by fields, would recommend, own transport essential.

Central position in Norfolk with many attractions within a 50 mile radius.

Very friendly hosts and a lovely setting.

The property is comfortable and well laid out and the bed is very comfy! We also enjoyed meeting the friendly dogs and horses too. We will definitely be returning.

A great holiday on 2nd July '21.

The accomodation was very comfortable and clean. A big thankyou to our hosts, loved it.

We had a very pleasant stay at snowy owl barn .

Max and Sid were there to meet us on arrival . Max explained to us all the do,s and don,ts then left us to unpack . The barn is situated down a single track lane in the village of shipdham and it is roughly a hour away from most major tourist attractions . We visited lots of lovley surrounding villages and places in the week we were there . We throughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend if your looking for comfortable clean and peaceful accommodation.

Great property, clean, comfortable and well equipped.

Beautiful setting . Owner extremely friendly and helpful.

We had an amazing stay at Snowy Owl Barn and it had everything we needed.

The owners were lovely and friendly. We will certainly stay again if we are in the area!

The location was good but there were not many places to visit within a reasonable distance.

During our stay we lost all vision on the TV, We mentioned this to Max and on our return there was a new TV ready for us. Max was very friendly and supportive. You could say he was as friendly as possible and a pleasure to talk to. All in all we enjoyed our stay, but it was difficult to know what was available to visit due to the Covid restrictions on leaflet use. Otherwise it was a very pleasant holiday with limited sunshine.

This was our third time staying at Snowy Owl Barn and it was excellent as always.

A credit to the owners.

Lovely barn with really helpful owners.

Would highly recommend a stay at snowy owl barn.

Fabulous place to stay in beautiful surroundings and so peaceful and quiet.

The barn is as described and spotlessly clean and perfect for a couple to relax after a day out in the surrounding places visited. The barn although in a quiet location is central to so many places so it's not long before you arrive somewhere to either sight see,shop or have a quiet drink. Max who looks after you upon arrival is very friendly and runs through all the details plus is a mind of information of all things local and if any issues(we had none) he will sort them out. His wife looks after the horses that are there and is around to say hi to but you very rarely here them considering they are close by. Will certainly return as it was a perfect location for my wife and I and lovely hosts who take pride in the 2 cottages there and the surroundings.

The owners were very welcoming, Nothing was too much trouble, in fact they go that extra step to make sure every thing is perfect,getting me some bread rolls from local bakery day after arriving, anything needed or needed to know just had to ask, And the setting was just beautiful, could watch the owner training her horses, I’m definaitly going to return in the future, and would whole heartedly recommend a stay here, in middle of country side but not far away from anything, 31/2 miles away from a large superstore, Well deserving hosts, they have put in everything and comfort you need for a lovely break there short or longer, well done very tastefully done

A very relaxing place and quiet,nice surroundings.

Very helpful people at the farm.

The owners were friendly and helpful.

Lovely place for a quiet get away.

Made very wellcome , one of the best places we have stayed in 20 years using sykes cottages

Friendly owners, very approachable and happy to help.

Accommodation was lovely, couldn't fault it at all - probably one of the best we've ever had. Price of holiday was reasonable compared with other accommodation in the area.

Beautiful grounds and it was lovely to see wild deer whilst having my morning tea.

The barn we stayed at was amazing, rural enough that you were well secluded (single lane track 3/4 mile to get there an other 300 yards onto the property from the road) but it was almost central Norfolk (field next to us was!

) so a great hub for exploring all parts of Norfolk. Owners were lovely, it a great view out over the fields from the barns too Even with places shutting all around us due to the virus, there were plenty of places to see and do, a coastal walk at Cromer, lots of lovely villages to walk around, and National trust properties with lovely large grounds... We will definitely be heading back when we are able, there is so much more we want to see and do...

Excellent hosts.

Well situated and kitted out. Ideal country retreat

Everything was very good we thought there where a few things missing perhaps a welcome pack as we have had in other properties with sykes barn very comfy bed excellent

Great stay at Snowy Owl Barn.

It's in a lovely location, is well kitted out, and was immaculately clean. The view from the patio is out over fields from where we watched deer and a variety of birds whilst having breakfast - so relaxing! We used it as a base whilst visiting family in the area and is well situated for the North Norfolk Coast, Norwich and the Broads, as well as for Thetford Forest, Brandon Country Park etc. Would definitely book again.

It's an excellent base to travel from - there is a very narrow, one car road, for about a mile from Shipdham to the farm gates, there are a few passing places.

It's quiet and tranquil, just the job after a busy day out. There is a small shop in Shipdham that is open until 7pm. The barn is kitted out to a high standard, and the bed is very comfortable.

We enjoyed our break at snowy owl barn,interior of the barn was outstanding,our only drawback was having to use the car to get everywhere.

But all, told nice holiday

It was so peaceful and quiet, the owners were so nice and hospitable and friendly.

Lovely accommodation, everything for a lovely stay.

Beautiful setting with very helpful and considerate owners

Very comfortable, clean accommodation with everything provided.

Central location for visiting Norfolk. Would certainly recommend.

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful converted barn.

Spacious and very well kitted out. Fabulous view from patio. Overalll would recommend highly.

Nice people.

Lovely well kept property. Perfectly placed for any of Norfolk's attractions.

Lovely quiet location but situated in central Norfolk which made it easy to explore all areas.

The cottage was true to the brochure description. Wifi & internet connection was very good. We had a thoroughly pleasant 4x night stay.

Extremely welcoming and friendly hosts.

Lovely peaceful and scenic surroundings.

Nice accommodation but with a washing machine it would be perfect.

........................

Great space for complete relaxation.

Owners were very accommodating and friendly. A bit far away from main places of interest so we had a fair car journey each time we went out. However, this did not deter us as the whole point of the break was to get away from it all and relax, so we were happy to stay more local.
