All about the outside:
When you arrive
Malthouse Farm Barn is approached through the 5 bar gate. The driveway offers parking for 3-4 vehicles.
Back garden
The back garden can be accessed through a 6ft solid side gate to the right hand side of the property, should you not want to enter through the house. The garden is surrounded by 6ft walls making it the perfect enclosed and private space. There is a large lawned area and a patio which sweeps the length of the barn with access to the utility room, lounge and both the downstairs bedrooms.
There is a further patio to the rear of the garden with sofa seating and coffee table. There is a charcoal Weber BBQ with a starter pack of coal supplied through the summer months. The brick outhouse offers storage for all our doggy items including a large crate, and a further freezer for raw feeders.
Will this property suit my dogs?
Absolutely! From the hard floors inside (but not slippery) to the secure garden, this is just heaven for dogs. Lots of space and comfort for them. Very little can be heard or seen from the outside area. The owners – Ally and Rick – live next door with their beautiful spaniels should you need any assistance during your stay.

“Fabulous! I had been watching the renovation since first mentioned on the ERC social media pages. It’s everything and more than I had imagined. Meg loved her treats and the runs on the beach, fields and woods. She even enjoyed meeting Lottie and Skye. Hope to visit again. Thank you for making our stay a lovely and peaceful one.” – Amanda, Phil and Meg, September 2024.
“I’ve stayed in lots of holiday cottages, but Malthouse Farm Barn is truly ‘THE BEST!” All of our six dogs had a wonderful time, with visits to the beach and countryside walks. We had various trips to beaches and towns – all enjoyed by all.” – Stewart, Can, Sam, Rod and all the dogs, September 2024.
“We have had a lovely stay at Malthouse Farm Barn! It has been our rescue dog Eric’s first holiday and our first holiday as dog owners! Eric has really enjoyed chasing his ball on the beaches at Ostend and Happisburgh. He has also loved playing in the garden. We had a lovely walk in Bacton Woods. The barn has been very comfortable with everything that we needed. Thank you for the welcome basket of goodies and for creating such a lovely holiday home.” – Louise, Daniel, Olivia and Eric, June 2024.
“We have enjoyed a wonderful holiday with perfect sunshine. The barn is stunning with everything you could need. Nice days spent at the local beaches, Bacton Woods, Thurne for a walk along the broads. Ate at The Lighthouse – good pub grub. Bacton fish and chips were fab! We’ll definitely be back!” – Hollely and Thompsons, July 2024
