We found Norfolk Hideaways' website really informative - good photos, floorplan (really useful), a written description of the property with a list of all the facilities, plus local info. Very easy to book your stay, site shows availability and calculates price instantly. They remind you when the balance is due and how to pay. Communication was excellent, when we went to the Barn, the dishwasher was broken (not a problem) and they e-mailed to let us know. Appletree Barn itself was absolutely charming, refurbished to a good quality but made totally individual by the Owners' furnishings. There are fascinating works of art, and artefacts in every room and the furniture was antique wood - no plastic units or granite worktops here. This gave the whole barn a really homely feel, it was warm and heaters were available if you weren't warm enough. The garden was a good size, lots of grass with a patio surrounding the bedrooms, ideal for my young dog to run around. Location was good for exploring the north Norfolk coast and beaches, very peaceful at night, delightful church bells chiming each hour. We didn't realise (our fault) that there is nothing in the village except one pub, which serves good food, however, big supermarkets are available in Fakenham, and Holt is nearby for fish & chips and chinese takeaway. Everything was supplied in the Barn, with thoughtful touches like a welcome present of homemade jam, juice and coffee and a bowl of water ready for the dog. We thoroughly enjoyed our week there and I would definitely recommend this property for a lovely relaxing break.
