About this property

Long Stratton 2.8 miles. Positioned in Fritton, a quaint village in Norfolk, is The Granary, a fabulous barn conversion, welcoming four guests. Enjoying a tranquil base, surrounded by nature-filled walking trails, and cycling routes within an area of conservation, whilst adorning an open-plan living space, an enclosed garden, and a gated driveway, the property offers the ideal base for a family or group getaway. Benefit from two private parking spaces, before taking two steps up to the property, starting off in the living space; here you can prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen, dine around the breakfast bar, and relax with the Smart TV for entertainment. As the sun sets, enjoy a stroll around the lawned garden, finishing with a glass of wine upon the patio area, before returning indoors to complete your nightly routine in the wet room; the property also benefits from a separate cloakroom for convenience. Rest your eyes in one of two spacious bedrooms, including a double and a twin, before awakening to an itinerary brimming with adventure.

Car enthusiasts will also be in their element as Snetterton Racing Track and the Lotus Factory and test track lie nearby.

The Norfolk Broads is also reachable by car, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, whilst the Suffolk Coast is the ideal area for stunning sea views and beach days, stopping off at Lowestoft, Dunwich Heath and Beach, and Thorpeness. Journey to South Norfolk where you can explore the Waveney Valley, an unspoilt haven of wildlife and the perfect place to walk, cycle, canoe and sightsee; visit the hidden gem of Diss, where the popular Boudicca Way begins and meanders all the way to Norwich, passing the old Romant town of Venta Icenorum. If you're seeking independent stores and quaint pubs, the market town of Harleston is certainly worth a visit! Whilst on your travels, venture to the popular seaside town of Southwold where you can enjoy strolls along its extensive stretch of golden sands, visit and climb up the 19th-century lighthouse for breath-taking views across the sea or tour the quaint Southwold Museum. Experience all of this at The Granary.

Between the cities of Norwich and Diss, there is a town and civil parish called Long Stratton.

A village hall, two Church of England churches, and a Methodist church are all located in Long Stratton. There are also several taverns, bars, and restaurants in the community. The surrounding city of Norwich, which is home to the impressive Norwich Castle and the majestic Norwich Cathedral, offers additional conveniences and attractions.

    The cottage is beautifully presented, very comfortable, in private grounds giving us all we wanted. It is perfectly placed to explore Norwich and beyond.

    This was our second visit and we just love everything this area of Norfolk has to offer, there really is something for everyone! The Granary is beautifully presented everything has been thought of and it is spotlessly clean. Just perfect if you have a dog too as there are brilliant spaces and walks right on the door step. Christine & Stanley are perfect hosts and could not have made us more welcome. We will most definitely be back! Thank you so much Karen & Robin
