Norfolk self catering holiday cottages

 

 

 

Jonas Farm Holiday Barns were, up until 5 years ago, part of a working farm. Now they have been carefully converted to a very high standard to provide self-catering holiday guest accommodation in North Norfolk. We have named them all after local well known Norfolk Halls.

Each Holiday Barn has been designed to retain many of the original features, such as, exposed timbers and traditional flint & brick work whilst providing modern, high quality accommodation.


Jonas Farm Holiday Barns are ideally situated in the village of Roughton in North Norfolk and is an excellent holiday destination for visitors of any age or interest.

Just a one mile walk to Cromer 'The Gem of the Norfolk Coast' which is famous for its End of Pier Show, Cromer Crabs and its Beautiful 'Blue Flag' Sandy Beaches.


For visitors arriving by rail we are less than one mile from Roughton Railway Station and don't worry if you haven't got your own transport, we have a regular Bus Service running past our Complex.

Cromer
Just 1 mile from us, Cromer is a beautiful bustling seaside town known as the gem of the Norfolk Coast. It grew up around the fishing industry and you can still buy the famous Cromer Crabs directly from the fishermen on the beach. There is safe bathing from the lovely sandy beach ideal for playing games or building sandcastles or you can just stroll along the promenade.

Jutting out into the sea is Cromer pier on which there is a genuine End-of-the-Pier show at the Pavilion Theatre which annually holds the World Famous Seaside Special, Celebrity Concerts and shows from May to October. Behind the theatre is the new Life boathouse built in 1998 which houses Cromer’s Lifeboat.

Each August Cromer holds what is probably one of the largest Carnivals in Britain. It is a full fun-packed week of fun and includes a Grand Parade on Wednesday evening, which includes over 100 floats, bands and majorette troupes.

At the centre of the town is a beautiful church and it is surrounded by a diverse range of shops, restaurants, pubs and amenities. In the evening take a walk along the cliff top and gaze out to sea, watch the sun set or wander the glorious gardens that line the cliff top.

Sheringham
5 miles away is Sheringham which has been described as the Jewel of the North Norfolk Coast and the Town Motto is 'Twixt Pine and Sea'. Its unspoilt beaches are some of the finest in the country. In addition to the beaches you will discover wonderful woodland at Pretty Corner and Sheringham Park a National Trust property which is stunning in late May and Early June when the rhododendrons are in full bloom. It is an unspoilt town with a wide variety of local enterprise and amenities and very friendly local people.

There is an excellent wide range of Shops, friendly Pubs and Clubs and Market every Wednesday and Saturday. We have a superb choice of Restaurants, Bistros and Cafes.

Sheringham’s long standing heritage in fishing stretches back to medieval days with the launching of crab boats and lifeboats from Old Hythe to the West. Sheringham is the only place in the world to possess four of its original lifeboats.

Holt
10 miles away is Holt, a small attractive town with many houses made of flint, a material much used in this area. Old houses are huddled haphazardly in the heart of this little market town. It takes its name from the woods that surround it dating back to Saxon times. It offers a great range of amenities and a pleasant place to stroll around and take in the charm.

You can wander the art galleries where there are exhibitions of contemporary paintings, prints, sculpture and jewellery all year round. Browse through the many old-fashioned shops hid away in the little alleys where a bargain may be found.

Between Holt and Edgefield the road drops and then rises again where the moraine of an Ice Age glacier can be distinctly seen, it consists of gravel deposited by melting ice at the foot of a glacier.

Holt Country Park offers several walks through shaded woods beside small ponds where you can fish during the fishing season. Take your dogs for a peaceful walk, picnic with your family or just enjoy a stroll.

Take a horse and cart ride to the station and catch the North Norfolk Steam Railway to Sheringham.
