A fabulous cottage on the outskirts of the charming village of Outwell and on the site of an old Benedictine Priory, now part of a small complex of converted barns. The site is surrounded by an acre of private land (shared with neighbouring cottages) and quiet lanes for walking and biking, and there’s also fishing nearby at Well Creek. Based in a rural location but with Downham Market only 6 miles away, the historic town of Kings Lynn is 19 miles, and Ely Cathedral is 24 miles away. The village itself is serviced by a small number of shops, restaurants and pubs. For those looking for a day at the beach, Hunstanton is just over 30 miles away and makes a great day out with traditional arcades, beautiful esplanade gardens, boat trips to see seals, the Sea Life Centre and more. If you love historic country houses, the wonderful Oxburgh Hall is 17 miles away and for wildlife lovers, Welney Wetland Centre is 10 miles away.

Step into the open-plan living space which is steeped in natural light, a wonderfully sociable space for spending quality time with your loved ones. The kitchen is equipped with all you’ll need to prepare sumptuous meals. You can choose to perch at the breakfast bar for a quick bite before heading out to explore, or while away the evenings around the dining table. Push open the large bi-folding doors in the lounge area in the warmer months to immerse yourself in seamless indoor/outdoor living. A cloakroom with a washing machine, tumble dryer and WC completes this floor. When you're ready to call it a night, head upstairs to one of three thoughtfully decorated bedrooms comprising two king-size bedrooms and a twin bedroom. The master bedroom boasts panoramic countryside views and an en-suite shower room. The elegant family bathroom completes the property.

Outside, your private courtyard is the perfect spot for afternoon lounging, pre-dinner drinks and stargazing from the six-seater hot tub. Fire up the charcoal BBQ and dine alfresco with a backdrop of rolling fields.

The cottage was impeccably clean. The space is just amazing and open yet cosy and warm. Theyve thought of everything and with homemade very nice cakes on arrival. The hamper was incredibly generous so thank you. The hot tub was epic! Easy to understand instructions for that and everything else. Comfy beds. Comfy sofas. Nice bathrooms and showers.

Its certainly not a deal breaker with bedroom blinds if you want to use them but helpful to know. Everything was amazing and relaxing and we could have stayed much longer! Hope to return at some point. Hide

Fabulous little break for myself and the family in the lovely Benedict Barn. Beautiful place to stay with lots of attention to details including special towels for the hot tub which we used a lot as the evenings were dark and it was great to look over the fields under the stars. Loved the goody box, doggy treats and Birthday cake. My daughter and IRead more indulged in a very relaxing back massage hosted by Amy. We shall certainly be back again!!! Hide
