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
