We had a wonderful few days staying at Woodpecker Barn in Sculthorpe.

We had a wonderful few days staying at Woodpecker Barn in Sculthorpe. The Barn is very spacious and beautifully furnished and is part of a small complex of barns set in a peaceful area so perfect for relaxing. We were ideally located for visiting the wonderful North Norfolk beaches and surrounding villages.We will definitely be back
