Hindringham Barn

About this home

Interior designers and landscape gardeners have certainly waved their magic wands over this magnificent barn conversion! With six exceptional bedrooms, twelve guests will be walking into the pages of an interior design magazine.

Hindringham Barn, dating from the 15th century, has been lovingly restored and now offers lavish, stunning, very social accommodation. Natural materials, local to Norfolk, such as brick and flint and brilliantly crafted antique beams have been sensitively paired with high-end contemporary wonder.

Every single room is the picture of style and grace with vibrant art decorating the vast walls. With wondrous lofty opulence, the historic carcass of the main living space has had architects in their element blending ancient charm with modern, sumptuous living. It is truly inspired.

Hindringham Barn enjoys a spectacular rural position close to the delightful village of Hindringham, just a 15 minute drive from the celebrated town of Wells-next-the-Sea and very close to the ever popular Blakeney with its wonderful harbour and seal trips.

It is hard to imagine that this lavish, cavernous, cathedral-like gem was once used for nothing more than storage for the farm. Its exposed vaulted ceiling, brick and flint walls and timber beams feel effortlessly luxurious and the huge contemporary windows and doors drench the space with natural light.

Sumptuous sofas are perfectly placed to enjoy the fabulous garden views. Extravagant fabric artworks break up the exposed walls. Dinner can be served on the fabulous central dining table or the alternative table, close to the kitchen. Perhaps breakfast at one and dinner at the other? After dinner, you may enjoy an evening of merriment striking up songs around the grand piano.

Down a few steps, you will find the amazing, contemporary kitchen which features outstanding appliances, a beautiful central island, a feature painted flint wall and atmospheric beams. Again, this striking area is illuminated through the contemporary floor-to-ceiling windows and doors. This kitchen is truly dreamy for your chefs. It offers another massive dining table which seats your whole group.

The six bedrooms and four bathrooms offer an achingly luxurious feel. Three bedrooms boast double beds, one a king-size bed and two bedrooms offer twin beds. Two delightful bedrooms boast en-suite shower rooms plus there is an outstanding family bathroom and a ‘Jack and Jill’ bathroom with a gorgeous freestanding bath. Whichever heavenly space you end up with, you will sleep like kings. Exposed flint walls, vaulted ceilings and dreamy beams all feature throughout the bedrooms and bathrooms.

The grounds are equally impressive with colourful, pretty gardens planted with nasturtiums and lavender. There are seasonal fruits and vegetables, all waiting for you to pick them for dinner. Entertainment comes in the form of boules, croquet and table tennis.

Alfresco dining can be enjoyed in several spots, you are spoilt for choice. Pre-dinner drinks can be taken on the deluxe lounge furniture surrounded by pretty planted boxes and with a firepit on hand for chilly evenings. Be prepared not to want to leave this very special holiday home!
