About this property
Set within an acre of private land, this five-star holiday destination offers the chance for a family or group of friends to unwind, recharge and make special memories together. Watch the deer in the fields, soak in the hot tub or stroll along the adjacent canal while spotting wildlife and, if you fancy a change of scene, head into a market town to explore boutique shops and great places to eat.
Enjoy the sense of space within the open-plan living area of this high-quality getaway. The eye-catching kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, and boasts a breakfast bar where you can perch with a coffee or a snack, while the dining table seats six for celebratory meals. At the far end of the room, the indulgent lounge is light, bright and comfortable, with gorgeous rural views and a Smart TV for when you want to draw the curtains and have a quiet night in. Climb the beautiful oak staircase to the first floor and you’ll discover three relaxing bedrooms. The master king-size features an en-suite shower room, Smart TV and window seat where you can gaze for hours at the surrounding scenery. A second king-size and a twin bedroom share a family bathroom in which a free-standing bath takes pride of place. For meals and drinks in the fresh air, step out onto the enclosed patio, where you’ll also find a fabulous hot tub which is just the spot for al fresco relaxation.
The barn is part of a small complex located on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Outwell. If you enjoy exploring historic towns and cities you’ll love Downham Market, 6 miles, King’s Lynn, 19 miles, and Ely, also 19 miles, while for nature lovers the 1,000-acre Welney Wetland Centre is just 10 miles away.

Mrs Dunnet
We had a fantastic stay in Aqueduct barn, the accommodation is top notch, the whole place was spotless and there was everything you needed in the kitchen, including a lovely welcome pack which was very much appreciated also treats and bags for the dogs. The rear of propery has views across the fields. Amazing hot tub to chill out in as well. Quiet setting in the countryside but within a short drive to Downham Market or Wisbech for essentials/shopping. Met both the owner and her daughter, both lovely and friendly, approachable should you need anything. Would definantely visit again.
