Stables Barn is a very spacious single-storey brick and flint building that has been converted from the old stables, and has dreamy views across undulating meadows to the little Victorian flint church over the valley. Its generously proportioned main rooms have a cool Scandinavian mood, decorated in relaxing shades of blue and green for a calm and comfortable atmosphere. On one side the barn has a sheltered walled courtyard for soaking up the sun and on the other, a large terrace and lawn.
The barn has its own spacious enclosed garden, and there are also shared games rooms, a spa and a steam room. A gentle fifteen minute walk, following in the footsteps of Henry VIII, takes you to the medieval village of Walsingham. This is home to the shrine of Our Lady, visited by pilgrims from around the world, founded in 1061 when the lady of the manor built a Holy House modelled on a dream vision of Jesus’ house in Nazareth. Little remains of the C13th Priory, but the famous Abbey gardens may be visited and have spectacular drifts of snowdrops in springtime.
Threshing Barn lies in a tranquil little river valley, almost in a world of its own. The barn was part of a historic farming estate and is surrounded by the protected lands of the Priory. For many years home only to swallows, the barn has now been brought back to life by an architect and his wife who have created an elegant retreat that marries the best of traditional Norfolk materials with contemporary design.
Converted from the massive 19th century granary, the barn faces south and east towards an unbridged ford on the river and the gentle rise to the Hill. From the luxurious comfort of the first floor sitting room, where the backdrop of rustic clunch walls sets off crisp modern furnishings, you can gaze out across calm green fields and grazing sheep. This huge open plan space extends past a central island kitchen to a large airy glazed dining room with more fabulous views down the valley. In this barn, country meets city by combining designer details with vernacular building techniques.
