What a beautiful place to stay. We only stayed one night but I wish we could have stayed longer. It was so clean and welcoming. Staff are so friendly. Breakfast was delicious and so much choice. I cannot think of anything negative to say. One of the best places I have ever stayed at.

Beautiful stay
Beautiful place, very clean and comfortable. All the amenities required. Breakfast in bed was a perfect touch. Would 100% recommend and revisit. Just be mindful it’s in a secluded area with no mobile signal but that’s what we wanted so was perfect. Wi-Fi is available

Our stay here was very comfortable and we were much looked after. From check-in to check-out and everything in-between, experience was superb. Food was amazing with a lot of choices. Room was comfortable, warm, welcoming and cozy. The atmosphere of the place was really amazing. However, the only issue we had was the distance to the shops/ town especially if you do not have a car. But overall, was an amazing experience and staff hospitality was the best. Thank you for everything.

We loved staying at Dairy Barns. All staff were wonderful, warm, welcoming and made us feel like party of their families! The breakfast was scrumptious and we especially loved being called ‘tigers’ and ‘darlings’ at every opportunity. Thankyou to them all ❤️

A* Accommodation
Stayed at The Dairy Barns for 2 nights in the Dahlia room, which was a spacious room, tastefully furnished. The bed was super comfy and we had excellent sleep for the duration of our stay. It was Easter weekend and 2 lovely cupcakes were waiting for us in the room, along with a good selection of tea, coffee etc. All of the staff were super welcoming and upbeat and friendly. The breakfast area was light and airy and breakfast was cooked to order, and was delicious. Easter Sunday there were cream eggs on all of the tables for us at breakfast time... a nice surprise. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Really wanted to extend our stay, but unfortunately they were fully booked. Will definitely stay here again, no complaints whatsoever.

Lovely hosts, Nice room, great location.
Great service and location. Room comfortable with super king bed ( 2 singles zipped together ). Staff were great ... Very friendly and knowledgeable about the area .. places to visit , eat etc. Breakfast pretty good .. cooked to order. Towels washed daily .. which is nice but unnecessary. Great base for exploring NE Norfolk and broads.

Just perfect.
Arrived late due to work commitments however, despite this the owner was incredibly welcoming and showed us to our room and all of the facilities within. The room was fabulous with everything and more we needed for the evening. Both my partner and I were taken back with the attention to detail in our room and the cleanliness. The breakfast arrived dead on the time we had requested and the food was delicious as well as being the perfect temperature. Overall, despite us only staying the one night, we both had the perfect stay and will certainly return in the future. All of the staff we encountered were incredibly friendly. The perfect getaway in a beautiful location within the Norfolk broads.

A little gem in the middle of nowhere Norfolk.
The Dairy Barns had high reviews. We now know why. What a little gem! Lovely restaurant area and breakfast. Beautiful bright, clean room. Big soft towels and cotton wool like pillows. Hyperactive staff genuinely wanting to make sure you are comfortable and are fully informed on the local area. Two lovely nights.

Lovely. Great service, highly recommended.
Fresh, clean and spacious room (The Cowshed) with character in a barn. Well appointed and very comfortable. Outstanding service from Hannah and her team - the breakfast was superb - brilliant way to offer a 'full buffet' in covid times without a buffet - fill a form the night before then you sit down at your reserved table next morning and it's brought to you exactly when and as asked for! Must be green, too - saving food waste. Lots of info provided on things to see, do and eat causing us have a great meal at The Star Inn and see the seal colony at nearby Horsey Gap beach - been going to Norfolk for years and never knew the seals were there every year. Yes, faster internet would be better for youtubing kids but this was unusually in the description - full marks for honesty. Kids can make do for one night and I'm sure Hannah will upgrade when it's physically possible. All in all we wished we could stay longer - my wife's comment as soon as we opened the door - really can't say any more.

One of the nicest places we've ever stayed at! The host (Hannah) was lovely, very friendly and extremely helpful, booking us both a taxi and meal at the nearest restaurant. The property itself is wonderful with a wide variety of things to see and do. The rooms are big, comfy and have all conveniences, and the beds and pillows certainly helped a full night's sleep. Finally, the breakfast was perfect, plenty of choice and delicious
