Hosts are so lovely and welcoming and the family suite was immaculate with all the amenities you need. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, will definitely plan to stay again.
I've stayed at Decoy Barn a couple of times now and always enjoyed my stay there. The rooms are lovely, spotlessly clean and very quiet - both times I've stayed I've slept well, which I hardly ever do when I am away from home. John and Suzanne are great hosts and I always feel very welcome when I stay at Decoy Barn. The off-street parking is really good too - plenty of spaces and very secure.
Absolutely amazing find. The hosts were lovely, accommodation was clean and well stocked. Very comfortable beds and lovely grounds. Great breakfast options and the hosts were happy to chat about loca recommendations. We will be back!
We had an amazing 2 nights stay hosted by John and partner in Decoy Barn. Hosts were very welcoming. John helped us with his knowledgeable tips and observations on visiting places of interest in Norfolk. Breakfast was excellent. Garden with it's vibrant colours were a joy to the eyes. Room was comfortable and clean ensuring adequate privacy. Will recommend to anyone going there.
Decoy Barn & its hosts were absolutely delightful, our hosts were welcoming and friendly. The two bedroom suite we stayed in was comfortable, clean, very well equipped. The garden that our room looked out onto was immaculately kept, lovely area to sit and relax. We had breakfast one morning and this was delicious, nothing was too much from our hosts. Thank you John & Suzanne for a lovely relaxed stay at your B & B, we’d definitely recommend and most definitely stay again 🙂
Lovely quiet location. Comfortable room with everything you need for a pleasant and relaxing break

Excellent all round stay, clean and smart accomodation as well as all areas, very quiet and peaceful, within easy reach of all attractions and places to visit. Great breakfasts and very friendly and knowledgeable hosts for who nothing was too much . A pleasure to stay and would stay again and reccomend it for anyone visiting and staying in the area. Could not find any faults.
We enjoyed a lovely one night staff a Decoy Barn. We were given tea and cake on arrival and a lovely breakfast the next morning. It was a very comfortable bed which was much needed after a long journey. Many thanks.
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
This was a lovely get away with a friendly atmosphere. The room was clean and well looked after. The gardens were lovely. The owners were friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was delicious, fresh and perfectly cooked. I would highly recommend Decoy Barn.
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.
