Licensed for official ceremonies since 2009. Barn Drift, reputed the best of Norfolk, overlooking the Cley Marshes, the Glaven Valley and Blakeney Point. This unique holiday home and licensed wedding venue, was recently converted from an ancient barn into the beautiful home it is ~ now offering a stunning and exceptionally comfortable building. With 8 spacious bedrooms, each beautifully decorated and with zip and link twin or double beds depending on guests' requirements. The huge, well equipped kitchen is flooded with natural light, as are the two sitting rooms and dining room. The house has underfloor heating throughout, controlled by resident guests from each room. Both sitting rooms have Smart TVs and plenty of board games, the house also has a manifold of books for everyone, a croquet set and even table tennis. There is a large boot room, furnished, of course with a washing machine and tumble dryer. In the conversion of the barn the 3 sheltered walled gardens, accessed from large sliding doors off the hall, kitchen, dining room and drawing room have been beautifully retained - each offering warm sun traps and stunning varied and ever-changing views over the valley, sea and bleached sand dunes of Blakeney Point.

Happy Halloween from all of us at Barn Drift! 🎃🍂 The gardens have turned the most beautiful shades of gold, and autumn is well and truly here. A rather lovely setting for Halloween. 🤎

One of the few things we love about these darker evenings? Skies like this. 🌕

The most incredible moon rising over Cley Windmill, just down the road from Barn Drift. A rather beautiful reminder of why we love this little corner of North Norfolk, whatever the season.

Thank you for capturing this beautiful moment Chris Dean

A little further up the coast in Hunstanton, just before Storm Austen arrived. The calm before the storm, quite literally.

We’re feeling rather jealous of our guests spending the weekend tucked away at Barn Drift, cosy and warm while the storm passes outside.

There’s something rather lovely about a wild and wet weekend on the Norfolk coast, especially when you have nowhere else you need to be.

We still have a few dates available this December for a festive stay at Barn Drift.

Think cosy evenings by the fire, long walks along the Norfolk coast, winter mornings with sea views and plenty of time spent together in the lead-up to Christmas.

A little reminder that throughout the winter months, we have a minimum stay of just three nights, making it the perfect opportunity for a long weekend away with family or friends.

Get in touch to find out our remaining December availability and arrange your own Christmassy escape to Barn Drift.

One of the loveliest things about getting married at Barn Drift is that the beach is just a five-minute walk away.

With our own private path leading down to the beautiful Cley beach, you can slip away from the celebrations for a few moments together and some rather special wedding photographs.

A little bit of Norfolk magic, right on our doorstep.

High tide and the aurora just down the road from Barn Drift in Blakeney this week. Norfolk, you are truly spectacular. 💜💚

16 guests, a house full of character, plenty of room to spread out and your own private path down to Cley beach.

A pretty good excuse to get everyone together for a few days on the North Norfolk coast.

From intimate dinner parties to larger celebrations, The Hangar is a wonderfully versatile space for private events. With its exposed brickwork, rustic character and plenty of room to make it your own, it’s a rather special setting for bringing people together.

With Christmas just around the corner, we’re looking forward to seeing the space transformed for festive celebrations, long lunches and evenings around the table.

For private event enquiries and Christmas gatherings, please get in touch. We’d love to hear what you have planned.
