Wheatsheaf Barn is a lovely place in a great quite area, the locals are really friendly and helpful, the cake the owners left for us was delicious, but we felt the cleaning was not up to standard for a place costing this amount, the oven was dirty and bathrooms grubby. and all the windows and glass on the staircase needed a good clean.

From my initial enquiry up until the moment we left, Janet and Tony ensured our stay at Wheatsheaf Barn was perfect. We were welcomed unexpectedly at the station by Janet who had also left us a homemade cake at the house. They even offered to pick our friends up from the station later in the evening.

The barn itself is wonderful, the perfect mix of homliness and modernity, with lots of space for families with children or large groups of friends with dogs such as ourselves. With a log burner and a big open plan downstairs, it was the perfect weekend break filled with walks on the local beach and in the surrounding woods.

I live in Australia and rented the barn for a homecoming with my brother and sister in law along with 12 week old niece and 2 dogs. We rented for 8 days and had numerous visitors over the time we were there. The place immediately felt like home and we did not want to leave. There is so much space that nobody was on top of each other and if you want a bit of peace you can sit on the mezzanine and chill looking at the fantastic view or in the games room having a read. The place is so well equipped we had 12 for dinner Xmas day and it was a breeze. I would highly recommend the barn for Xmas and at any other time of the year. I have a funny feeling that Xmas will be booked already for 2013 as everyone that stayed wanted to book it.....

We stayed for New Year's Eve with friends and family 11 in total. Janet and tony are friendly warm and welcoming. There place is stunning, clean, comfortable, warm with all modcons. Everything you needed all under a huge roof ! Beautiful nature walk and friendly locals. I had the craft room which the bed was so soft I didn't want to get out of it. Showers and toilets all over the barn so no waiting around seating in all areas so we could all relax without being on top of each other. Sound proofing really good and slept like a log. Didn't find a local pub but we really didn't want to leave the barn with the log fire and champagne cooling and one of Janet's home made mince pies we was set for the stay. Janet and tony also accommodated a couple of extra guest for New Year's Eve which we was great full for.
Would return again and again and would highly recommend. They have a truly beautiful home.

We stayed at Wheatsheaf Barn for a hen weekend. There were 9 of us in total and as one of the organisers, I was delighted with our choice of accommodation! It's a brilliant spot. The barn itself is a great building - huge inside and not overlooked by the owners but they are close at hand and very willing to help out if required. The interior has been completed to a high spec and it felt really comfortable to stay there for the weekend. We loved the fact it had a seperate wine coller fridge in the kitchen and a fridge with water cooler/ice dispencer. Almost all guests for the weekend were travelling from London and it is really convenient. We took the train to Wrabness and Janet, the owner, is very happy to assist with lifts from the station, although it is walkable too. We explored the local area on foot which is lovely - good walks and some useful suggestions from the owners - and used the BBQ and terrace too - we were very lucky with the weather! I would stay here again and I would definitely recommend for group holidays with family or friends.
