Fridays Barn (2), Salthouse, Norfolk
Situated in an enviable position at the edge of Salthouse village with stunning views across to the dunes and sea, Fridays Barn provides very spacious and comfortable accommodation for two. Boasting countryside views to the rear, this hideaway beautifully combines rural and coastal living.
The semi-detached barn is extremely light and bright, and the lovely open-plan kitchen/ dining room is the heart of the house. Tastefully decorated, it's the ideal place to come back to after a busy day out exploring the Norfolk coast. Cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen using the best of produce sourced locally, before retiring to the delightful sitting triple aspect sitting room featuring great views and cosy open fire, plus comfy sofas and a television with Amazon Firestick. Or if you don't feel like cooking, venture out to the nearby Dun Cow for some great pub food, or Cookies Crab Shop for seafood delights.
There is a lovely king-size bedroom, a bathroom and a separate shower room with a large walk-in shower. The entire ground floor boasts lovely open views to the coast, perfect for birdwatching. To the rear of the property there is a completely enclosed garden with a lawned area and patio boasting garden furniture and barbecue, meaning you can enjoy al fresco dining, or just a sundowner, on warmer evenings.
With the beach only a 10 minute walk away, and the local pub and shop also within walking distance, you may want to stay put and relax. If you feel like venturing out, take the Coasthopper Bus right from Salthouse, and explore the many other coastal villages and beaches in either direction. For wildlife enthusiasts make sure to visit the Norfolk Wildlife Trust Visitor Centre just down the road at Cley Marshes.
This property is also available to book for a larger group of up to eight guests using three bedrooms on the first floor - Fridays Barn.

Excellently appointed cottage in a beautiful setting.
Time to change the towelling - now worn thin and bath towels too small.
Driveway with the dip near the road made it difficult to back out. Potential damage to low cars.
All in all a lovely place to stay

Comfortable Cottage
Our 1st stay in Friday's Barn & hopefully it won't be our last. It's great that although this beautiful, comfortable, barn sleeps 8 it can be booked & enjoyed by a couple. The location is great, especially if like us you enjoy the scenery of Cley next the Sea & Salthouse for walks, birdwatching, lunches & evening meals.

Convenient location for North Norfolk Coast
We visited in March with wonderful weather. Excellent bird watching and walks - lots to see and do. However, access to the property is difficult due to the steeply sloping drive - suggest always approach from the Sheringham direction. The house is spacious, light and comfortable but we had no television as the Sky Box was broken and there was a very unpleasant smell in the living room, which, despite the house being situated right next door to a sewage pumping station, we concluded that a dead bird in the chimney was the most likely cause. We reported both these to the Norfolk Hideaways and the owner; despite attempts nothing could be done about the television and no one attempted to get the chimney swept whilst we were there. Consequently we stuffed paper up the chimney and bought some air freshener which made a bit of a difference. We must emphasise that we have received compensation for all this.

Ideal for birdwatchers. Only drawback is the steepness of the driveway, have stayed at property twice and both times have caught the underneath of the front bumper.

Fantastic cottage with sea views
We absolutely loved this cottage and would definitely stay here again. There was plenty of space and it had a fab kitchen with everything you need. The lounge was really cosy and it was lovely to settle in for the evening after being outside all day. The village was lovely, but quiet which is what we wanted, and the village shop and pub was only a short stroll away. It’s a great location for visiting Cromer, Sheringham, Blakeney and Holkham.

Lucky break!
Lovely cottage in a very good location. Well equipped kitchen, which makes a difference from many other properties we've stayed at over the years. The whole cottage felt light and airy, especially the large kitchen/dining area.
A few niggles, which you will get no matter how good the property. Agree with other previous guests - why have the microwave in a top cupboard?? This really needs to be safe and accessible on a worktop. Front door lock could be fiddly, at one point we thought we were locked in! Key safe doesn't work well, took me at least 6 attempts to get it to close properly. And another problem encountered by previous guests, the Sky box control didn't work. We found another handset in a drawer in the kitchen which did work, but needed to have the doors on the tv unit open otherwise the Sky box did not respond. More instructions on which handset to use when would have been useful - tv handset had to be used for volume control, we had problems originally trying to work out how to change channels, as used wrong handset and couldn't find how to get back from scrambled signal.
We were very lucky however, as we stayed the week before the lockdown due to coronavirus! We were still able to visit the narrow gauge railway in Wells, and a final pint in the local pub, the Dun Cow, on the day before all pubs and restaurants etc were closed. Good luck to those in the Salthouse Store, delivering to vulnerable people in the area and other local businesses who are helping out in the community to keep it going.

Fridays Barn stay in March
My wife and I have just spent a week in Fridays Barn. We absolutely loved the location as we looked out over the marshes each morning and saw a variety of wild life which for bird watchers was a real treat. The cottage had all the equipment we could have required and I took advantage of the variety of DVDs to catch up on some films that I hadn't seen.
It is a great location for exploring the North Norfolk coast for great walks runs, including 3 nearby park runs, whilst coming back to our own really private space.
Could really recommend it!!!!

Fridays Barn
Spotlessly clean on arrival.
Difficulty in getting key out of key safe on arrival. Housekeeper came to our rescue.
TV instructions were non-existent and housekeeper's son came to our rescue.
Drive extremely steep and backing on to main coast road. Not very safe.
Otherwise no complaints
