Great location and lovely house
Owl barn was perfect for what we needed. In a great location within a few minutes walk of morston quay, opposite morston hall and near by all the main places to go.
It was comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay.
A lovely character property in a lovely quiet location but well placed to visit larger villages/towns. Beautiful deli hamper on arrival although it got nabbed quiet quickly by my son, and Bentley the black lab loved his ball, thank you would highly recommend.

Beautiful Barn
A beautifully appointed barn in a lovely quiet location.
The barn is a great size with all the emenities you need for a short stay. We loved the little welcome pack of juice, cake, biscuits, milk, tea, coffee etc. It was also useful to have access to cleaning materials (left under kitchen sink).
The barn doors opening giving a nice glimpse of Morston Hall Hotel really bought the outside in, and we loved the open plan feel upstairs.
It is very well located, only a very short walk to Morston Quay and onto the coastal path that takes you to Blakeney etc.
We had a truly relaxing stay here and will definitely be back.
We found parking outside the barn is quite tight (we came in two cars), but eventually made use of the additional parking space by the garage/bin store.

Highly recommend
We had a great Christmas holiday in this very well-equipped holiday barn. There was a good amount of space so that we didn’t feel crowded, and it is so nice to finally be able to say that the beds were so comfy in a holiday let!
It was prettily decorated for Christmas and it was probably the best equipped holiday let kitchen we’ve had anywhere; thank you it made catering on Christmas Day easy.
Although there was a key safe, we needed a second key. I contacted the out-of-hours number (Christmas Eve) and a key was supplied within a few hours - first rate service.
A shout out for the cleaning company - everywhere and everything was spotless.
The only improvement would be to provide a coat stand and boot rack in the entrance hallway for when there are a lot of wet coats and muddy boots to dry, but that is only a minor suggestion.
Highly recommend.

Good but ....
Well located in Morston but the barn itself needs some refurbishment eg shower (too small and weak), aircon (gets very hot upstairs and in the bedrooms at night), furniture (not very comfortable), toilets (where seats are small and wooden) etc. The owner and managing agent were very quick to respond to issues eg wasps nest, need for fans etc. But the barn lacks certain niceties that one would expect. Their welcome pack was also not very welcoming, by Norfolk standards. Note, there is no garden whatsoever and the shingle road outside the property suffers from passing delivery drivers from time to time, so it is not safe to allow young children to go outside the property on their own. Overall, a good stay but not as good as it looks in the photos.
This was a lovely place to stay in a great location.

Liked: Location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
Lovely property but lets itself down due to lack of attention to detail, especially cleanliness in some areas. Many dead insects including large moth on the upstairs windowsills plus a sizeable cobweb around one window. Smearing on the glass kitchen worktop protectors and crumbs and grains of rice in the cutlery tray. If you're going to leave milk for guests, put it in the fridge. We didn't know how long it had been on the kitchen side (the previous guests left some days before) but it was a warm day when we arrived and the milk was quite warm, so, down the sink. Whatever cleaning material is used to wash the bedding and towels leaves an unpleasant chemical smell. I unclogged blocked up nozzles in the shower head but, even then, the water flow was not much more than a trickle. The shower hose was black near the shower head, and the condition of the shower cubicle, including the shower door, isn’t what you’d expect from a nearly 300 per night establishment. Finally, to turn on the hot taps in the downstairs bathrooms, you actually have to turn them clockwise, whereas it’s normally anticlockwise. Only minor a point but if, like me, guests try to turn them on anticlockwise with some force the result could end up with a broken tap and water everywhere. You may notice that the hot taps are either a little loose or a bit angled. On leaving, we removed the black liner from the kitchen bin; it’s grim. Overall, a lovely property, but, unfortunately, it’s the little things!
