“Good location for getting out and about , Shame about the TV to WiFi as it kept dropping and loosing signal, The welcome pack was much appreciated , security lights at the front of the barn needs looking at as they where constantly going on through the night and through our stay.”

- Jeff, September 2023
Mark September 2023

“This is a wonderful barn conversion.”

The barn was exceptionally clean and tidy with comfortable beds and a kitchen with everything you need. Having taken our 2 small dogs, we were able to relax knowing that the garden and yard were fully enclosed so they could not get out. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting an escape for a week or two.

- Mark, September 2023
Alison September 2023

“Have left 1 or 2 comments but it was a delightful and well presented and equipped place to stay.”

Perfect for dogs as well. Proved to be the centre of a wheel for all the places we wanted to visit in Norfolk. Weather was fantastic and a great crop of blackberries!

“This is our second stay, we stayed in the Old Cart Shed at Christmas and most recently Little Barn.”

We had a fabulous stay, the cottage was well equipped, clean and comfortable. Our daughter loved the snug area. Highly recommended and genuinely cannot wait to book again for some peace and tranquility.

Hayley July 2023

“Absolutely perfect!”

Lovely welcome pack on arrival, clean and inviting, everything available for a family of 4 and a dog. Beds are super comfy, loved the little secret 'den' up the stairs and children could read and have their own space. Bathroom and kitchen are excellent with everything you need, fully equipped, sparkling and easy to use. Garden was also very good, with great views from the living room of the vast Norfolk landscape. Located on a small shared hamlet of houses so not too isolated but never saw or heard the neighbours. Great location for walking the dog with local footpaths and open fields within walking distance, pubs and farm cafe are all excellent and so friendly. Ideal location for loads of national trust properties and beaches. Great hosts and would love to return some day. Highly recommended. Thank you Kerry

Natalie July 2023

“Just back from a lovely 5 days stay, properly was clean, well maintained and fully equipped.”

The garden was private and completely enclosed which was perfect for our dog. We found access to fields for lovely walks and Fakenham was only a short drive away for replenishing our supplies, the Chocolate Factory shop alone was worth the visit! We would definitely book again as there was nothing to fault

- Natalie, July 2023
Michael July 2023

“Little barn is a located in a small complex with lovely views.”

The accommodation is very comfortable and modern and was perfect for the 3 of us. There is a field next to the building where you can walk your dog in the morning and evenings. Travelling to the coast takes about 30-40 minutes. We would definitely recommend if you prefer to stay somewhere quieter and commute to the tourist locations.

- Michael, July 2023
Vicki July 2023

“Perfect place for a short break with our dog, had everything we needed and had some treats left for us which was so thoughtful, nice walk at the back through fields.”

Would definitely recommend

- Vicki, July 2023
Chris June 2023

“We really enjoyed our stay at The Little Barn and the welcome pack was a nice surprise.”

Everything we needed was provides and the accommodation very comfortable, although the settee's were a little low for us oldies. Baxter our Springer enjoyed the exercise field and the freedom of the garden. We hope to return again one year and certainly to this accommodation. Maybe the owners could put pressure on Norfolk Councils to make more beaches completely dog friendly and NOT kept on leads as we only found one at Brancaster.

- Chris, June 2023
Janet June 2023

“Beautiful accommodation and great for dogs too.”

Kitchen is excellent equipped. Would highly recommend.

“We had a lovely stay at Little Barn.”

The barn is rural but very easy to get to places you wish to visit. Kitchen utensils we're of a high quality it was nice to have sharp knives some places we have stayed I've ended up going out and buying knives. Sofa is very comfortable but we did struggle to get up as it is very low. Would be a bonus to have a hand grip on the wall in the shower as I struggled a bit when showering. We had 2 dogs with us who loved the garden area zooming around they would chase each other only downside was the gravel area as when they ran on this the gravel sprayed onto the artifical grass and there was no out door broom to clean up. Would be nice to have a mop & bucket to clean the floors. If your looking for a good holiday rental that is very peaceful and you don't mind travelling to explore Norfolk Little Barn would be perfect.

- Yvonne, May 2023
Barbara May 2023

“We have just returned after spending a fortnight at little barn, what a fabulous time we had.”

The property is in a stunning area out in the countryside. Little barn is so clean well furnished and very comfortable. The bed is extremely comfortable we slept like babies every night. We were left a very well thought out welcome pack that was much appreciated and enjoyed by us. The owners can not do enough for you, they live on site but are definitely not intrusive. We are already planning our next break there. We have two Dachshunds who had a whale of a time in the well enclosed garden. Our sincere thanks to the owners for providing us with a beautiful holiday home.

“The property was gorgeous and the owners left some very thoughtful welcome items, which were really appreciated.”

I always write a review truthfully and will mention things that I viewed slightly different from the photos / write up or encountered that may affect someone else..... The bedrooms were nice but there is no spare space for luggage etc, it would all need to be put away in the wardrobe. There isn't a wardrobe in one of the rooms so that may cause a problem. The bathroom smelt gorgeous and was beautifully decorated. The bath, due to the shape of it, unless you were slim, you can only sit in comfortably one end, which is the tap end. There is another rental property opposite which has fencing to give some privacy, however the property has an external light and when that is on, it shines through to your front room, so you have to close the blinds to block it out. In addition there is a garden that runs at the back end of your garden with someone that had dogs that will bark when outside. I am not sure if it is the owner or someone else as they were seen loose outside my rental property at one point. which meant that I had to have my blinds down permanently to prevent my dogs getting agitated. This blocked some of the natural daylight out which was a shame. When the dogs were out in the garden, I would have to bring mine in otherwise they would start barking back . The garden looked bigger in one of the photos, it was a good size but not as big I thought. It was fine for my two lurchers who had space to run around still. These are all minor things and did not detract too much from a very enjoyable stay. The area has beautiful countryside and I would recommend a stay for sure !

John March 2023

“We wasn’t sure what to expect, the photos looked good but the actual barn was stunning, 100% if we are returning to the area this is where we will stay!”

Marilyn March 2023

“Hi Yes we did have a great week We love little Barn It was our second time ...”

Hi Yes we did have a great week We love little Barn It was our second time there We have booked again for next March 2024 And the welcome pack Is very much appreciated The dogs love it The enclosed garden is very good for them The barn is spotless and everything for you to use The underfloor heating made it cosy as it was snowing when we arrived Thank you

Connor February 2023

“Very nice property, secure outdoor garden was great for our two dogs and the welcome package was a lovely touch.”

A great base to explore the surrounding areas from. Thank you

- Connor, February 2023
Tamla February 2023

“Loved our stay at Little Barn.”

It’s a gem of a place to have as a base to visit all the places we enjoy taking the dogs. A very dog friendly property, enclosed secure large garden for them. Even though there are other properties on site, it feels very private as the screens and walls have been placed to achieve this. Highly recommend Little Barn and hope to visit again in the future. Dogs and humans loved the welcome pack too!

- Tamla, February 2023
Hannah February 2023

“Another fabulous stay at Little Barn!”

Lovely place to relax, watch the wildlife, explore Norfolk and this time got to enjoy some local road bike routes too! Doggies love it every time we go! Have booked again and cannot wait to go back!

- Hannah, February 2023
E January 2023

“What a find!”

Little Barn is a little gem. We stayed there in January 2023 and it was cosy, clean, well equipped and peaceful. The welcome pack was unexpected and a lovely touch. Would highly recommend and will certainly visit again.

- E, January 2023
Kieron December 2022

“Two of the nicest people I never met.”

what can I say we spent new years there. and the made the day perfect. even a happy new years card amongst other nice touchs. I would def consider going again.

Charlene October 2022

“The attention to detail from the owners ensured a comfortable and great stay throughout and nothing was too much trouble.”

The little barn is a beautiful little place in a peaceful location, great for people wanting to get away from busy life. We shall definitely be returning.

- Charlene, October 2022
Jeffrey October 2022

“A lovely property.”

Very modern and well equipped, everything still felt quite new to us. The kitchen equipment was of a very high quality, even the carving knives were sharp, unlike other properties we have stayed in. The welcome pack gifts were very much appreciated, thank you. The enclosed & secure garden was perfect for our dog although it took him a while to get use to the astroturf! Property is very rural & the road it is on is a single car width so nervous drivers beware. However the road is very quiet & we only encountered one vehicle coming the other way once during our weeks stay. Thank you for a lovely stay.

- Jeffrey, October 2022
Howard September 2022

“A delightful cottage.”

Beautiful setting and everything we needed. The owners were very helpful and some lovely welcome gifts were left for us to enjoy. Thoroughly recommended.

- Howard, September 2022
Mick September 2022

“I was so pleased to find this place through Sykes Cottages, it was a wonderful Barn Conversion with the very latest technology, very roomy.”

My wife and I believe this was the best property we have ever rented over our 60 years of marriage. When we arrived home I rang the owners to praise this facility and to thank them for their welcome pack waiting for us. Michael and Pamela LEE

Elizabeth August 2022

“Little Barn was just what we needed as a lovely week away.”

The property was just as advertised and the fully enclosed garden was perfect for our dog, it was great to know he was safe & we weren't having to constantly check on him. Location was perfect, easy access to footpaths for walks and driving to so many lovely locations to do as much or as little as you want. Thanks to Kerry and David for everything, Liz & family xxxx

- Elizabeth, August 2022
Fiona August 2022

“The Little Barn holiday was absolutely wonderful.”

This was the first holiday our pups went on and the property was fantastic for them and us. We were so impressed with the Little Barn - we loved it and would definitely look at staying again. Thank you to the owners who have a beautiful property which has been finished to an extremely high standard and we enjoyed spending time in - home away from home.

- Fiona, August 2022
Gavin July 2022

“Our family and dog had a fantastic stay at the Little Barn.”

Lovely property, great layout and very clean with a welcome gift which was a very nice touch. Great location to reach numerous beaches in 25 mins drive. We know it was a good stay as we all said we could really do with a couple more days. Owners were very helpful when we needed to contact them also. Hopefully we will be back again in the future, thank you.

- Gavin, July 2022
Ria July 2022

“This place is perfect, the owners must be so proud, we didn't want to leave.”

Has all the facilities you need, some great pubs nearby and takeaway restaurants (10-15mins drive) and supermarkets about the same distance away, but could always get a delivery too. Peaceful place to stay, and the accommodation is beautiful, our dog loved it too with an enclosed garden we had no worries with letting him run about.

- Ria, July 2022
Gerald June 2022

“Very impressed.”

The owners should be very proud of this property. We certainly appreciated what I refer to as being a ‘right proper welcome’. Thank you so much Kerry and David. The barn and garden just beautiful and caters for every want and need. We have no hesitation in wanting to return and/or recommending to others. And, believe me, I’m not that easily pleased … so it’s a plus plus from us.

- Gerald, June 2022
Gary June 2022

“The Little Barn, Tittleshall was perfect.”

Very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Nice touch with milk in fridge, tea, coffee, marmalade and jam all provided. Dogs loved it....We would definitely stay again.

- Gary, June 2022
Vicki June 2022

“Had a wonderful stay.”

Cottage is extremely comfortable, very clean, modern, spacious and light. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and the owners had provided tea, coffee and milk, along with a couple of very welcome treats (including one for the dog - a first in all the places I have stayed and a nice extra thought). Location was lovely and rural but easy to get about to the wonderful beaches in North Norfolk. A lovely break and I would definitely come back.

- Vicki, June 2022
Jane April 2022

“An excellent property, immaculately clean and in a superb location.”

The owners had left a thoughtful welcome package along with plenty of extras such as dishwasher tablets, hand gel etc. A tiny criticism, and it is only tiny, was that the sofas were a little low (we are in our 60s) but comfy. Ideal if you are younger. The dog loved the garden, he has to be on a lead to go out at home. I really recommend the property, it is stunning

- Jane, April 2022
Teresa April 2022

“A2 hour journey turned into 4 hours searching for the property.”

The app takes u to a main road with fields either side, completely of track to the property. Had difficulty contacting owner due to reception however called back as soon as they received voicemail. No signage to property and Tittleshall Road difficult to find in spring summer. Would benefit from proper clear signage off main road. However, stay extremely faultless, owners thought of absolutely everything, very quiet, isolated and perfect for a relaxing break. Most suited to a very quiet holiday or for those active hiking, walkers, cyclists etc. Need travel at least 6 miles for nearest towns. Local shop open limited hours with limited stock but very friendly all the same. Loved our stay, but did not realise as isolated as we were. No contact with owners at all, however, welcome card and goodies left on arrival. Could have benefited from bread and eggs being left, but just a suggestion. Enjoyed our stay and would consider going back for a much welcome chill out.

- Teresa, April 2022
Rebecca April 2022

“Couldn't have asked for better accommodation in a beautiful part of the country.”

A perfect base for exploring the Norfolk coastline. The welcome gifts from the owners were a lovely touch and we'd recommend this accommodation 100%.

- Rebecca, April 2022
Julie April 2022

“Amazing little house with everything you need.”

Great enclosed garden for our dogs & not too far from most places you’d want to visit. Modern, clean & comfortable. Highly recommend.

- Julie, April 2022
Christopher March 2022

“Fantastic property in a peaceful location perfect for chilling out after days out exploring”

“Lovely very quiet place we thoroughly enjoyed our stay very relaxing”

- Philip, March 2022
Amanda February 2022

“Little Barn was absolutely fantastic, a lovely place in a great location - really nice and quiet and perfect for being able to relax and take some leisurely walks, across the fields and admire the stunning scenery - with the four-legged family members.”

I would definitely recommend it and would love to visit again in the future. If I had to provide one bit of feedback, it would be that it would be great to have a mop and bucket available at the property, as I was aware that with two doggies, despite cleaning the dogs before they came in the door, the potential to trapse a bit of dirt in was quite high - and I felt I would have liked to have been able to mop the floors. We had a great time, thank you so much.

- Amanda, February 2022
Scott January 2022

“This was our second visit to Little Barn and it definitely won’t be our last.”

We love it here. It’s beautifully presented, comfortable, cosy and a real home from home. The property is spotlessly clean and there are many welcome gifts to enjoy on arrival. The location is peaceful and it’s an easy journey to the north Norfolk coast. Highly recommended!

- Scott, January 2022

Nick November 2021

“Really nice property to stay in as a base to explore Norfolk.”

Very clean and comfortable. The surrounding area is also very pleasant. Internet is a bit slow but probably nothing the owner can do about that and I wouldn't let it put me off.

- Nick, November 2021
Linda October 2021

“Little Barn is a very attractive barn conversion with eco features.”

It is tastefully decorated and we'll equipped. The beds were so comfortable that we slept like logs every night, which is most unusual! It is obvious that a lot of thought and love has been put into this accommodation. In addition, the accommodation is very dog friendly and so relaxing to stay in with a dog which meant a great deal to us. The enclosed garden, surrounded by gorgeous countryside, was a joy every day as we saw nature in abundance. We loved it and would definitely return.

- Linda, October 2021
Hannah October 2021

“Excellent value for money, great outlook from the property and excellent layout!”

Lovely walks from the property and great for deer spotting and our dogs loved the enclosed garden as a space to run around :) Hosts little gifts on arrival made the start to the holiday all the more special! Have already booked to return! Loved the place! :)

- Hannah, October 2021
Dannah October 2021

“Lovely house that was very easy to find if you put the coordinates into Google.”

We had no problems getting there. The house was immaculate and the arrival gifts were a lovely touch. It was nice to go somewhere where dogs are so welcome and the enclosed garden was thoroughly enjoyed by our pooch. We met the owners who were very helpful. Would definitely stay here again. Good transport links to some great Norfolk attractions as well!

- Dannah, October 2021
Simon October 2021

“A relaxing and peaceful hideaway.”

The owners live next door and couldn't have been more helpful, even treating us to a bottle of Prosecco as a welcome. Will definitely be booking again.

- Simon, October 2021
Scott September 2021

“Wonderful property - clean and with no expense spared.”

Jenny September 2021

“Your instructions to find the barn were not at all clear, we had to ring the owner for help!”

For a start, there was no mention of which direction/ road you were starting from!

- Jenny, September 2021
Emma September 2021

“The Little Barn is lovely!”

Such a great space and a perfect place to relax and the fact it is dog friendly and has a lovely sized garden was even better! You need to be aware that to get to the coast is quite a drive but it is totally worth it and I would happily return as the barn has everything you need!

- Emma, September 2021
Richard August 2021

“Perfect stay for all of the family.”

- Richard, August 2021
Lisa August 2021

“We stayed at Little Barn in August and the accommodation was the cleanest place we have ever stayed in.”

It is a lovely new barn and the kids enjoyed going up to the snug area. All utensils were available in the kitchen. It is located in a nice quiet area. The owners left their numbers if we needed anything. We all enjoyed a lovely stay.
