The Dairy Barns
We can promise you a very warm and friendly welcome at Dairy Barns Bed and Breakfast and Holiday Cottages Norfolk which is beautifully situated between the picturesque village of Hickling nestled between the glorious waterways of the Norfolk Broads and the stunning Norfolk coastline at Sea Palling and Waxham, close to the seal colony at Horsey Gap .
Dairy Barns form part of Lound Farm, a working family farm covering 360 acres of grazing marshes and arable land. We love welcoming people to our home and pride ourselves on doing everything possible to help you enjoy your stay with us. Whether you are planning to stay for a short break or a longer holiday we want to be sure that you’ll be just as happy to stay in as you will be to spend your days out exploring the wonderful Norfolk coast and countryside.
We offer 6 cosy rooms, 3 extra-special rooms and 2 self-catering holiday cottages. There’s a very relaxed atmosphere, a gentle smattering of luxury and plenty of flexibility. Our friendly staff will happily share their local knowledge to help you plan and make the most of your days away.
