Romance and rustic, The Old Smithy is a charming detached self-catering barn conversion in the popular and quiet coastal village of Holme-next-the-Sea, located right on the coast in North Norfolk. Formerly the village blacksmiths, this hideaway has been sensitively converted into a cosy couples' retreat. Perfect for walkers, cyclists, bird and wildlife lovers, it is a fabulous base for exploring the whole of the North Norfolk coast.
Set in peaceful Holme-next-the-Sea, with its stunning sandy beach and village pub, The Old Smithy retains its authentic character, but has plenty of modern touches too. With its flint walls, cosy nooks, original features and peaceful setting, The Old Smithy offers a sunny front terrace and wildlife garden, yet comes with unexpected touches too, such as the stunning glass floor in the spacious bedroom.
Draw the big wooden barn door across at night and you'll feel totally tucked away from the outside world! Hunker down together in front of the wood burning stove and large flat screen television with BT Vision and Blu-Ray DVD player, or turn on the fabulous Sonos® music system and simply immerse yourselves in this pretty little abode.
With a calming décor and stunning first floor bedroom with vaulted ceiling, king-size bed and dressing area, you'll enjoy views across to Holme. The glass ceiling panel in the centre of the room also provides a wonderful focal point. The open-plan hand-built kitchen is well-equipped and comes with a sit-up bar with stools and a separate dining area. The sitting room has two comfortable chairs and a squashy leather sofa, perfect for snuggling down in front of the fire.
Outside, the side garden backs onto the marshes with uninterrupted views of the NWT Holme Nature Reserve. With a sunken patio area and lawn the garden offers the opportunity to relax and enjoy the seclusion and location of The Old Smithy, whilst also enjoying the bird and wildlife that surrounds it. But if you do need to keep in touch with the outside world, there is good WiFi and an EE signal booster in the property. This gorgeous barn is just perfect as a honeymoon retreat.

A beautiful little cottage in a quaint village.
Lovely enclosed garden for dogs.
Walking distance to a great pub.
10 mins drive to old Hunstanton beach where we had hired a beach hut with the property. What an amazing holiday!
Very good

Holme-next-the-Sea is a brilliant base for excellent places to eat and lovely walks to be done near-by, probably made more beautiful in winter with not too many other people about!

Great cottage in a great location. Well fitted out.
Was a little on the expensive side, but very nice. The addition of the rear door to the garden was very useful and makes the garden easier to use. Very nice enclosed, secure and private garden - especially convenient for the dog.
Would recommend and would revisit.
Welcome pack appreciated.
