The Owl House, Little Massingham, Norfolk

Located in the rural village of Little Massingham, the Owl House is a beautiful brick and flint barn in the heart of rural paradise, surrounded by a herd of doe-eyed, hand-fed breeding deer. Step over the courtyard for a dip in the ten-metre indoor, temperature-controlled swimming pool with beautiful modular ceiling with fibre optic lights and a separate changing area, WC and shower. There is also the option of a sauna, a round of tennis on the tarmac court or a game of pétanque.

Dominated by a magnificent open-plan living space and a huge handmade 16ft table with an impressively imposing chandelier made with shed antlers, it has a double vaulted ceiling with exposed Canadian spruce timbers which will catch your breath! Beautiful Indian stone flooring will keep you cool in the summer months, under floor heating will warm you at cooler times and the wood burning stove ensures it is cosy for the winter, making this hideaway an all-year-round retreat, perfect for families and groups of friends.

Every care has been taken to build an authentic and characterful residence with all the mod-cons to make your stay luxurious and comfortable. A bespoke staircase takes you up into a lovely loft room, with a super king bed and a walk-through to a double ended slipper bath, twin basins and a deluxe shower. Velux windows provide a view over the courtyard with its centre-piece fountain. It's only a short walk to the local gastro-pub, The Dabbling Duck, in Great Massingham too!

All three of the Hill Farm Massingham barns properties can be booked individually, as a combination of two of the barns or altogether to sleep 31 people. Fallow Folly (sleeps 7) and The Owl House (sleeps 10) are interlinked internally, while access to Red Stag Lodge (sleeps 14) is via outside. The Owl House is the most spacious of the properties, and is thought of as the “entertainment capital” if you occupy all three.

Great week

The barn was lovely, the pool was amazing and we had a really restful stay. The host was very friendly without being intrusive and left generous supplies and a welcome basket. The children in particular had a wonderful time staying in the bunk bed room. Would highly recommend and we would definitely rebook again.
