Hadleigh Farm Barn, King's Lynn

This was our 3rd time at the barn. Yes the showers are not powerful, and it would be nice to at least one king size bed but these are minor points. It location is ideal for that boring shop, only 10 mins away to exploring norfolk. We are looking forward to our next visit. It is so peaceful sat in the hot tub after a long walk on the dog friendly beaches. A great space to stay with family and friends.

Overall Hadleigh Farm Barn is a really good space. The hot tub was excellent. Some facilities though fell short, i.e. 2 extractors in bathroomstoilets not working, basin plug and towel rail missing in downstairs WC, broken blind in downstairs bedroom, wet room prone to flooding around WC. Also lack of storage for toiletries in wet room. Property was quiet, peaceful and private. Overall its a good property.

Flies were everywhere in the house. There were fly sprays provided, fly swatters, electric fly zappers, outdoor fly traps so it was a long standing problem. They were all over food whilst cooking and some were found in food just cooked. We had to hoover the floor to remove all the dead ones and try to catch live ones. My daughter went home after two days as she had two young children and didnt feel it was a safe environment for them. We bought two more outdoor fly traps but it made very little difference. My husband came home with a hacking cough which I believe was caused by the continual fly spraying. I have also been ill since our return. We all left the property early as it was a very stressful environment constantly battling with the flies. The water pressure in the house was very poor and by the end of the week non existent upstairs. Toilets taking ages to fill after flushing and the kitchen sink not draining despite our being very careful not to allow anything to go down the drain. The hot tub had also started to smell by Thursday and could not be used. It could be a stunning house with some refurbishment and serious attention to the fly problem. More storage is needed to enable all food items to be protected from flies. The instructions for the hob were in German and French which didnt help. It could be we were unlucky but our holiday was totally spoilt by the fly situation.

We had a wonderful holiday and loved the property and all it's facilities could not fault that. I have noticed that for years the same company.aints have been made and no effort to address them has been made. Would fly curtains over the doors help to reduce the hundreds of flies that plagued the house? A simple but cheap solution. Supplying fly traps also helps to catch them before they invade the house. A couple of WIFI boosters might also improve the use of the Internet. Time to put in power showers? Despite those problems we had a great time and loved that area of Norfolk lots of lovely walks on the doorstep and not far to travel for days out. Also recommend the paddle boarding and kayaking at Bawsey. Thank you.

Lovely house and a lovely setting. Really enjoyed tour stay.

Small negative the parasol only had one weight so when we tried to use it just blew over but the first time is hit my young son and the second time it fell onto the hot tub. Luckily no damage but could have so I would recommend some more weights on that to make is useable especially as the summer approaches.

Lots of space inside and out, very clean, good facilities.

We had a great week, the house was perfect for a large family. The hot tub was an added bonus, the house had everything you could need, a beautiful log burner and plenty of space. Would definitely recommend

This is a lovely spacious holiday home set in a quiet location. We found it straight forward to get to King's Lynn, Hunstanton, Blakeney, and Holkham Hall for some lovely days out. It was great to come back to a warm house and the hot tub. The house has plenty of space, including a large hallway to store shoes and coats. The kitchen is large and well stocked but we felt it could have had more cutlery, in particular teaspoons, and more mugs. There is WiFi but only really works if you are sat next to the router in the utility room. It was great to have the downstairs bedroom with ensuite for grandparents who struggle with stairs. However, it does have the least space of all the bedrooms with only 0.5 m gap between the bed and the wall. The ensuite wet room could do with more shelvestoilet roll holder and the entire room gets wet when having a shower, better drainage would solve this. The showers are hot but water pressure was low so not very powerful. However, overall a lovely house to spend a week in Norfolk with extended family. The space was great with a lovely large lounge, dining room, kitchen and utility with washing machine and tumble dryer. Would recommend!

The property is comfortable and easily accommodates 10 people has plenty of crockery, etc. . However, as per other reviews, guests must be prepared to cope with a barrage of flies as we did during our stay the first week of August. Generally, as has been noted previously, there is scope for improvement eg, the replacement of very rusty handrails in the downstairs ensuite. We had a problem with one of the doors of the twinbedded rooms effectively, two very small children were locked in when they shut the door. Thank goodness there was a screwdriver in the utility room as we had to remove the lock in order to rescue them. Another small issue was that one of the fanlight windows in the downstairs bedroom did not open despite a key being provided. It would also be useful for guests if there was a keysafe outside the property to avoid having to share the two door keys within a large group when leaving the property each day.

The house was good but the flies spoilt the holiday,so many,I know it's a farm but they were everywhere. Don't know the solution. No

Ideal place for a large group, especially with dogs. Very well equipped but could do with a littleTLC here and there,such as the upstairs ensuite shower with loose doors and no water pressure. A little general maintenance would make it perfect. We would go again!

Brilliant property, well equipped and maintained, in a lovely location only complaint was the low water pressure in all the showers more of a trickle!

A lovely house is a great quiet location within a short drive of Kings Lynn and Sandringham. We have just stayed with 6 adults, 3 children and 2 dogs and there was plenty of room and the enclosed garden meant we didnt have to worry about the dogs being out. Very clean and the owner was so friendly when I rung to get key details. Thanks for a lovely week away with family

A lovely cottage with a large open plan livingdining area which works well for bigger groups. Very safe, being off the beaten track with a gated garden and close to the North Norfolk coast and attractions.

Main problem is fliesground floor bedroom. Is bit too small for disabled person. Tin trays need replacement. But in general we are satisfied while we are staying there.

The photos dont do the property justice and I was a little worried about the stay looking at the reviews. . but I neednt have been! The property is fabulous. We found it to be warm and comfortable and equipt with everything we needed for our stay. The fenced stoned garden area worked well and it was nice to be able to play on the field too. The bedrooms are all good sizes and the dining and sofa area perfect for a big group. My only negative would be the pressure in the showers.. which for a week isnt a big problem! Wed love to stay again!

Excellent spacious accommodation. A bolt on the yard door would be useful to prevent toddlers exploring

To say we went in winter I was disappointed that the heating had been turned down low and no information on how to warm the house up. In fact there was a lack of information including for the microwave which had a note on it saying you had to read the instructions before using. The freezers were a disgrace, they were totally bunged up with ice and we had to defrost them to use them. The radiator in the smallest twin room never came on, I know as I was in the bed next to it. We asked for stair gates and it was put on the bottom of the stairs, but it collasped at first use, we used the second at the top of the stairs. On a positive note the place suited our needs. We were not disturbed by the owners but by the window cleaner.

The property manager was really responsive and helpful. They have a gem there, treat her well! Good things lots of space, pretty clean, cosy too. Good heating. Utility room brilliant. Thank you for the milk and biscuits. Not so good things the ensuite shower upstairs is really poor, no spray from the shower just a dribble. Double beds are really small and a squeeze for tall adults. Downstairs, sink and dishwasher drainage need sorting. Hob not good, oven teeny for 10. There needs to be a bit of an investment and overhaul in the kitchen and that would really make it better running. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but for the money expected it to be better maintained.

A great barn for a large family gathering to celebrate partners birthday. Everything was super clean and loads of space for us all to relax in. As others have said the oven is small but the convection oven microwave meant that it was easy to overcome. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need slight shortage of wine glasses but every other type of glass was available The only negative was the showers the ensuite upstairs we couldn't get to work and the general water pressure was poor across the house We will be back !

The size and layout of the house was perfect however there were negatives. The oven was too small for cooking for 10, the upstairs showers were very weak. The worst thing was the flies, it was impossible to prepare food, we had to have two or three people fanning the flies away while plating up. Eating dinner at the table wasn't pleasant. Snacks could not be left out in the living room area as they were always there continually buzzing around landing on your legs and arms. We made the best of it but it did stress us out, not what you want on a family holiday.

The house was perfect for our needs and extremely comfortable. This was a multiage family get together and we had the space and facilities for everyone's needs. This was the third time we had rented a Barn conversion in the Norfolk area and the family agreed it was the best one!! Clare was very welcoming and friendly when contacted. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. I would agree with other reviews that the water pressure in the showers upstairs could have been more powerful! We had a wonderful time and I would thoroughly recommend the house.

Really enjoyed our stay lovely property

Beautiful property, very spacious for the 10 of us. Owner very helpful when contacted. Small downside on the 2 showers, could do with power showers in all bathrooms. The ensuite room upstairs the mattress could do with being replaced & the oven was quite small when cooking for 10. However it was an incredibly relaxing place and the small touches like the radio playing when we arrived, tea, coffee, biscuits & some milk and the arrival of a parasol when the weather was warm didn't go unnoticed. Would definitely return

Very enjoyable. Barn had everything we needed.

A great stay in a property that is obviously cared for well by Claire and her team. There is a good wheelchair accessible room with ensuite on the ground floor but the barn would benefit from a wheelchair ramp at the front door to make access for wheelchair users a lot easier.

This is a lovely property in a great rural location, and close to many landmarks and visitor attractions. The barn was just what we wanted for our family Easter weekend, 6 adults and 2 granddaughters aged 4 and 2. The property is very well equipped, was in very clean condition and we had lots of room for relaxing and having fun! If we had one negative comment it would be that the oven would have been a bit small if we had wanted to do a full cooked meal.

A very relaxing, quiet stay in a lovely spacious and clean cottage. Absolutely perfect location to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life and for us to enjoy plenty of walks in the countryside but also only a 1520 minute drive to Kings Lynn if you feel the need to go shopping. A big shoutout to Claire who we had to contact for the key location a really friendly lady that ensured the first impression really lasted.

Had a lovely time, very spacious and everything you need they provide couldnt fault anything

A very well equipped property with ample space and facilities for ten people. The only one slight issue was the oven,one small single oven wasnt adequate for cooking for ten people.

A spacious property with everything you could possibly need so no need to take things just in case. The water was always hot but the showers were very slow, maybe just compared to ours at home. Let down however by a very dirty oven that I cleaned the worse off of, otherwise I would not have wanted to use it.

For our Family the Barn was an excellent facilty in its size, The 'Welcome Pack' was derisory A packet of biscuits and 500ml of milk FOR 10 ADULTS! ! The rear Patio was disgusting and could not be used Despite this everyone agreed that they would stay there again,

We had a great multi generational family holiday . A lovely base for catching up with local family and relatives

The holiday let was a converted farm building situated on a working farm. We were a family of 5 adults and 3 dogs so we had more than enough space in the Barn. 10 people could stay there and it still wouldnt feel crowded. We had a fantastic week.The accommodation was very large and clean. We loved the open plan downstairs with large tables and comfortable sitting room. There was lots of info provided for us to read on places to visit etc which was useful. The enclosed garden area was secure and very safe which gave us peace of mind for the dogs. There was garden furniture and a barbecue which we didnt get the opportunity to use as the weather wasnt good enough unfortunately. There was amble parking spaces too as we had a total of 4 cars! I havent got any criticism of our stay at all. We were close enough to the beaches, everywhere that we wanted to visit was no more than a 30 min drive away. Lots of lovely pubs serving excellent food and all very dog friendly. Given the opportunity we would return for another break and I would highly recommend Hadleigh Farm Barn.

It was just fabulous. Best well equipped self catering facility we have ever been too. Furnished to the highest standards & an absolute pleasure to stay there. Would we go back.....in a heartbeat. We enjoyed every second of it.

Whilst it was lovely they clearly had a problem with flies inside the barn although they were aware as something had died which i had read about in previous reviews and they were doing everything they could to get rid of them . This does seem like a short term problem and didnt stop us enjoying our time there
