What a delight The Decoy Barn Guest House is. We stayed over night, and it was lovely, with a beautiful garden. The room was clean and comfortable with a patio area outside where you had your own seating to admire the amazing garden. The hosts were very friendly and couldn't do enough for you, we will be back

Lovely small business, great night and stay

This was a sort of throwback stay not in the sense that any of the equipment or facilities were outdated but just in the sense that it the Decoy Barn is a small, family establishment with wonderful, kind and interesting hosts with some of the nicest hospitality I have had anywhere. A fair price and a good nights sleep all thrown in. Fully recommended.

I absolutely loved the Decoy Barn and John and Suzanne were so kind and welcoming! Breakfast was delicious and so beautifully prepared. There were lots of options to choose from. There are many interesting places to visit in the area! I can’t wait to go back! Their little dog Buddy is very friendly and loves to chase his ball. The property is nicely maintained and it was a memorable experience staying there. The countryside around the area is lovely. It would be a great place to live and accessible from the train line, which isn’t too far away. I got a local taxi fron Great Yarmouth to get there and John was always ready to offer a ride here or there if I needed to go somewhere close by. Thanks for everything!!!

Had a very enjoyable short break at Decoy Barn whilst we were in the area visiting relatives. Disabled friendly room with no steps to climb which was ideal for me after recovering from leg surgery and cannot walk unaided. Breakfast is optional and very reasonable priced for the lovely food you got and plenty of it. Certainly set us up for the day! Would highly recommend. Plenty of off road parking in private car park as well. Our hosts made us feel very welcome and we definitely hope to be back.

We were very happy to have found this place and would really recommend it. Although we arrived a little late the owners welcomed us warmly and made us coffee. The room was comfortable and had a large bed. The bathroom was well equipped. We ordered breakfast £8.00 pp. There was a very good selection of food which was well cooked. Great Yarmouth was within easy reach
