Halcyon Barn, Wissett Reviews

The accomodation was outstanding with plenty of space The Kitchen was stocked with the best utensils and an amazing array of spices should you wish to cook. Hot tub was also very good as was the outside seating, The weather helps of course.

Heather

Absolutely beautiful barn conversion. Very well equipped for guests to stay xx

A once in a lifetime opportunity to stay in an amazing property with friends. So much space for everyone. Beds were so comfortable, quilts and pillows were brilliant. Showers were excellent. Games were loved by everyone. Being able to do the washing meant we didn't have to pack loads and loads of clothes which was a bonus! Outdoor space was fabulous and it was just so peaceful being able to sit outside with a cuppa and listen to the birds. Everyone that stays here is going to love it

Rosanne

Brilliant stay. The accommodation is incredible and the amenities are excellent.

Alison

Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home we loved the open spaces, tranquility and personal touches too. We will definitely recommend to others and hope to return again. Suffolk was such a surprise to us wed never been before and there is so much more to explore. Wishing you well for the rest of the summer and thank you once again. Alison and Kevin

Graham

A very tastefully restored Grade 11 listed barn . Everything was of very high quality ,with lots of quirky things too which was fun. This was the first few days of our summer weather so the 13 tog duvets proved a little challenging ! We could have done with some small water glasses, otherwise the kitchen was very well equipped. I sensed the owners loved this place as much as we did ! Thank you for making it available . Now we just need to think of an excuse to return !

Damian

A beautiful property with amazing facilities and an abundance of space to spread out. Our children loved the games room and hot tub! Would highly recommend.

We had a lovely weekend here with family. Its a beautiful barn well equipped. We enjoyed the games room, hot tub and barbeque.

Joanne

Could do with a good kitchen reorg kettle is other side of kitchen to cups. Toaster is other side of kitchen to cutlery and could do with being 4 slice. Frying pans and lasagne dish not big enough for family of eight. Cooker hob was quite difficult to get hang of but got there in the end. Otherwise perfect x

Richard

What a wonderful place to stay, the house and all amenities are first class, truly felt like home from home. Lovely large enclosed field for the dog to roam in was a bonus that I hadn't realised was there when booking. Also nice dog friendly walks direct from the door. The Jungle Rooms caf in the village is worth a visit for breakfast and lunch. My only negative comment is the hot tub got a little cold when in use, real first world problems! Hopefully we will return.

A beautiful barn set in its own quiet grounds, so much space inside but still giving a cosy feeling. Everyone was catered for, games, comfort and relaxation in the hot tub, leaflets were available which led us on walks and days out. The dogs had a wonderful time with their own field to walk in and the fenced off area for a quick sniff. The location was perfect for touring beautiful Norfolk, Suffolk and surrounding areas. Recommend a visit to Felixstowe, which has a beautiful promenade to walk along which is immaculate. A book has been put together showing the history of the barn which I found very interesting. Loved our 7 night stay and the only downside was having to leave.

Rebecca

We had a wonderful stay at Halcyon Barn. The facilities including the hot tub, games, books etc we're fantastic and the barn was furnished and equipped to a very high standard. We didn't miss a thing in the kitchen, the beds were supremely comfortable and the bedroom configuration was great. We were a 3 generational group of 7 plus a baby and we all loved it. The barn was not quite as clean as we would have liked, mostly dust, cobwebs etc as well as some old biscuits left in the jar. A minor niggle for what was otherwise a superb week.

Annita

Absolutely fantastic stay at the outstanding barn. We all loved our weekend break for my daughter's 21st birthday. Would highly recommend this property it is beautiful.

What an absolutely amazing place! ! Had an awesome family holiday here in June. No one wanted to leave! So glad we chose Halcyon Barn. The place is out of this world! Everything there you could wish for and everything of the highest qualitystandard. Very very comfortable and luxurious. Credit to the owners! Would definitely like to go back! Thank you so much!!

The Halcyon Barn is an excellent place to stay. Very clean & comfortable & had everything we needed to make our week away very enjoyable. A home from home. Thank you.

We had a family 6days here. It was absolutely wonderful. Relaxing, peaceful, it had everything we could possibly need, the beds were really comfortable, and cannot fault Halcyon barn . Which must make it perfect!

An amazing place to spend Christmas with the family, beautifully furnished and beds very comfy.

What a fabulous property, huge amount of care and attention has gone into this. Very comfortable and very well equipped. This is the only property I've stayed in where my Global knives that I always take with me were not needed! Such a high standard, every one of my party was impressed, especially my 5 year old grandson who loved the table tennis!

We have had a wonderful stay! This was booked for my husband?s 60th birthday and for the family to get together, it was a beautiful barn in lovely surroundings. With two autistic children and one autistic adult there?s more than enough space for everyone. The stay has been so relaxing and we will definitely return next year.

L Swain

We spent a lovely few days at this beautiful barn conversion which was well equipped, very comfortable and beautifully furnished. The White Company bed linen and towels earned a big thumbs up from me! The peaceful location was ideal, being away from the hustle and bustle of Southwold yet within a short drive. The market town of Halesworth is only five minutes away. The local pub serving delicious food is only a short walk away.

W & H Family

We had a lovely week staying in your wonderful barn, we loved everything about our stay Great Sunday lunch at the local pub The Wissett Plough, which is only a short stroll away Thanks for having us!

CA, London

The attention to detail at Halcyon Barn is secondtonone a stunning conversion with an impressive vaulted interior, decor which is as comfortable as it is luxurious, plenty of sofas to lounge on, a lovely dining space, beds you'll never want to get out of, and thoughtfully stocked bathrooms. Everything you could want from a kitchen, and the bonus of a gamesroom which is ideal for families and also groups of competetive friends. There is ample parking, and the outside entertainment spaces make the most of the sun at different times of the day, amidst the surrounding outlook which is serene and peaceful. There is also a cracking pub at the end of the lane and beyond that there is so much of Suffolk to explore within easy reach of the doorstep. I really enjoyed my stay.

S Foreman

Theres plenty of space for hosting and we enjoyed the many family board games provided and watching films on the large flat screen TV. The four spacious bedrooms, three with ensuites and family bathroom are extremely comfortable and great for separate families occupying the space. The games area is an added bonus complete with pool tabletable tennis, which is great fun! The lovely outside area is quiet and peaceful, complete with hot tub and great BBQ and we enjoyed the views and lovely sunsets most evenings. It was definitely a happy place for us!

The park can be explored by car and on foot and Hyenas and Giraffes are just some of the animals you will encounter as you make your way around the park. Watch out for the lightning fast Cheetahs and keep your eyes peeled to spot the more reclusive creatures. During a day at Africa Alive there will be plenty of shows and educational talks taking place and if the weather turns then the indoor Adventure Play Ground comes in very handy.

This place is also the setting for the book 'A Boggle at BeWILDerwood', by local children's author Tom Blofeld. Parents are not left out either as you're encouraged to take part and play alongside your children.

We love this attraction in Scoulton, Norfolk with a great collection of animals. Children and adults alike have the chance to get hands on with the animals in the special handling areas. On rainy days there is always the indoor play area for the little ones and when it's time for a bite to eat the cafe on the farm is open all day selling drinks and snacks. Hot food is available over lunch times.

This fun family day out has been well planned and we think is certainly worth a visit. New for 2010 is the PrimEvil at Dinosaur Adventure. Other fun activities include the Dinosaur Trail, Arachnophobia, the Raptor Races and the adventure play area. The secret animal garden is also popular. You can play a role in wildlife conservation and sponsor an animal if you wish. At the moment if you sign up for their newsletter there is a chance to win a family ticket.
