From our guest book:-
Never Been the jealous type, but then I encountered this wonderful house, in such a fantastic location. Agree with the earlier comments 'A boutique hotel without the other guests' - wonderful! Beaumont family, Sep '09

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay...This really is a home from home - very charming, cosy, luxurious and spacious! Michaela, Lewis & Zak, Oct '07

Thank you for a great break at Quayside Barn - with the garden, parking and fire, it is a real winner! The weather was fairly yucky, but that gave us the excuse to stay in & chill out! Naill & Peter, Mar '08

We had a super week in Quayside, especially as the weather was so good. As before the cottage was everything we wanted and we hope to see you again next year - it almost feels like our own!! Karen, Steve and Tess, Sep '08

Our best week in Blakeney so far, thanks to the heat wave! And did I mention, the stunning new bathrooms at quayside and all the finishing touches which made this a fabulous holiday! Till the next time... Karen, Steve and Tess, July '09

The cottage was most comfortable and it was just the rest we needed after a very busy year.... we have never stayed quite so close to the quay before. We enjoyed sitting in the garden with its view of the marshes and appreciated the fact that we were tucked away in a quiet spot when it was busy. The Bonnin family, July '08

We were very impressed with Quayside Barn. It is a lovely warm and comfortable place to see in the New Year. Terry & Christine, Jan '08

Blakeney regatta takes place on the last weekend in July each year, with hundreds of people coming together to participate in (or just watch) a fantastic array of swimming races, tug-of-war across the creek, and of course the infamous greasy pole competition.

Blakeney is located on the North Norfolk Coast, just North of the small market town of Holt.
This part of the coastline has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty ANOB and the marshes and wide open spaces around Blakeney make it a haven for migratory birds and wildlife.

Blakeney used to be a small port, but is now a quiet village and provides an ideal location for a family holiday. There are two hotels, a number of holiday cottages to rent, and several B&Bs.

The village has a strong identity, and is a thriving and active community. There is a small supermarket, butchers, fishmongers, and chandlers, pubs and a post office as well a range of shops for holidaymakers

Blakeney is popular with dinghy sailors, bird watc...
