Up to two dogs are welcome at Old Church Barn for a small charge of £15 per dog.

Old Church Barn was the perfect setting for our Christmas holiday, with a very modern kitchen to cook a big Christmas lunch, a spacious dining room for our epic meal, and cosy living room for afternoon naps in front of the TV. There are plenty of walks in the area, and we were amazed by the seal colony at nearby Horsey Beach (a very gentle 4 mile walk away). We loved that a box of treats had been left for us, and truly appreciated the thoughtful Christmas decorations. Having look at dozens of properties to spend Christmas at, we definitely picked the right one - many thanks for making our vacation so special!

We are Winterton regulars, meeting up with family and seeing the seals at Christmas time. We have stayed in other Winterton cottages and in the various styles of property at Hermanus - Old Church Barn is one of the best and highly recommended. Atmospheric church ruins opposite were a lovely bonus. The barn has a superb kitchen but if venturing out there's great cake to be had at Poppy's tea rooms, breakfast at the Dunes cafe and carvery at Hermanus all recommended

We had an amazing few days away relaxing at the Old Church Barn. The barn itself is stunning and is tucked away within its own private space. Inside it has everything you need, there is a comfy king size bed, a hot spacious shower, an open plan fire and a modern kitchen you could cook a Sunday roast in. Winterton is just a short walk away along a beautiful country lane, in the opposite direction are the Broads all within walking distance. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Our family of four, along with our small dachsie, had a fantastic five-day stay in this stylish holiday home, which exceeded our expectations in every respect. Perfect for lazy days indoors, offering all mod cons, beautiful decorative touches, attention to detail and thoughtful touches - down to the torch for late-night digestive walks after dinners prepared in the perfectly equipped kitchen. An ideal location to get away from it all! We enjoyed the lovely walk to the beach and to the nearest pub, along with plenty of excursions detailed in the guest information booklet. We look forward to returning to this idyllic gem at some stage soon. One of our favourite holiday cottage experiences in the UK!

We had a really lovely stay at The Old Church Barn as it’s extremely comfortable and homely. The Barn is spotlessly clean and has everything you will need during your stay. Lovely walks on your doorstep and beautiful beaches at Winterton, Horsey and Waxham - all dog friendly. The welcome hamper was a lovely surprise and enjoyed by us all. Really recommend the barn to anyone who wants a quiet and relaxing holiday. Hope to return soon.

My sister and I had a wonderful week in this really lovely barn. We can thoroughly recommend it and the surrounding area. Our Dogs Rosie and Hetty also had a great time, lovely walks and plenty of wildlife to see.

We have just returned home from two weeks staying at old church barn. We have been hiring holiday homes for the last five years and by far this is the best property we have stayed in. So very comfortable, everything you want and so very quiet. We had never been to Norfolk before but love the area. We will definitely be going back. ,

We have just come back from the most amazing 2 week stay at Old Church Barn. The house was perfection! Great location, beautifully decorated, homely and had everything we needed to make our 2 week stay easy and enjoyable. Perfect location - Winterton-on-Sea is a lovely little village. Highly recommend the pub and Poppy’s tea rooms attached to the Post Office! The beach is beautiful and we even managed to see a baby seal (which we kept well away from!) one day. I would highly recommend Old Church Barn and Winterton Cottages generally. Thanks for making our first trip so memorable!

We loved Old Church Barn. It is very nicely decorated and very comfortable. Unfortunately we chose a very wet few days but still enjoyed our stay. Winterton-on-Sea is such a lovely place. Would love to stay there again soon.

We had such a lovely stay over the Easter Bank holiday weekend, the house was in perfect condition and in a very convenient location, just a 15 minute walk to the beach and into the local town. Would definitely stay again.

We had a fabulous stay in this beautiful cottage. Spotlessly clean, comfortable and very well equipped, including a lovely welcome hamper containing prosecco, crisps & cookies which didn’t last long!😋 Great walks straight from the door; the walk to Horsey to see the seals followed by a visit to the Nelson’s Head was a highlight, even though we stayed so long we had to walk back in the dark! We loved it here, so nice to have such a lovely place that welcomes dogs & perfect for visiting our son who is at UEA in Norwich. We will definitely return.
