Incredible accommodation in the most wonderful location!
We had the most amazing time celebrating my wife’s 30th birthday along with our 4 rescue dogs at Bristows Barn. I wanted to book something a little special as a surprise and it completely surpassed all expectations.
The barn was so beautiful, immaculately clean and was perfect for our Romanian Rescue who can be very nervous and reactive.
Whenever we needed advice or help, Stephen was fantastic at helping us and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect for us. The outside courtyard and garden was so private and perfect for us! Our dogs loved running about going on sniffari and getting all of the smells!
We were so sad to leave the barn as it was just perfect and so beautiful- we can’t wait to come back in the future to explore more of the beautiful surroundings!
So many wonderful beaches so close to the barn and lovely walks straight from the barn gate (weavers way being one of them)
The handbook for guests was fantastic and so helpful!
Cannot recommend this place enough!
So so dog friendly, stunning barn and in such a great location for adventures with the pups!

Thanks so much for the perfect stay!

This was the second time we have stayed at Bristows Barn, and it didn’t disappoint. The barn was so clean and we felt at home straight away. The owner was so welcoming, and has thought of everything to make this a truly dog friendly place to stay.
The location is wonderful, so close to weavers way, and a short drive to the lovely beaches.
Can’t wait to book again.

4 beagles, 4 adults and plenty of space. We loved our week at Bristow's Barn. Very relaxing and conveniently located to reach facilities, shops and so many beaches. Stephen was quick to respond to our questions. Only recommendation is for a few more pots and pans in the kitchen.

A beautiful well-appointed property. Truly a dog friendly property - i.e. no restrictions on where the dogs could and could not go in the house. Throws provided for the sofa, which our dogs really appreciated as they love to stretch out in comfort! Great garden - very secure - just a shame that the weather wasn't that great during our stay, so we were unable to make much use of it. Good local walks and the dogs enjoyed Winterton and Overstrand beaches too.
All in all we had a lovely relaxing time at Bristow's Barn.

Bristows Barn is a wonderful place to stay with your family and dogs. Totally dog friendly, lots of space for everyone.
The separate courtyard and garden are great for chilling any time of day. Weavers way is just across the lane, so quiet, we hardly saw any other walkers.
Stephen the host was so helpful, we can’t wait to come back again in November.

Second year running we’ve stayed here. Great location, Stalham just 5mins away in the car or nice 30min walk down the weaver way.

The barn is spacious, modern and comfortable, the dogs love it!

We have just returned from our first visit to Norfolk, staying at the Bristow’s Barn and would highly recommend this accommodation and booking with East Ruston. The accommodation was beautiful and had everything you could possibly need. The location was brilliant for walking our four dogs and it was great to see our reactive boy having the time of his life, swimming in the sea and walking for miles without any distractions. We would also like to say a big thank you to Sue for sorting out some extra goodies and birthday banners for our arrival, it was very much appreciated.

We had high expectations of Bristow’s Barn based on the photos and it did not disappoint. The location was perfect for us, it was quiet with excellent dog walks from the door.

The barn was comfortable, warm and well equipped. The kitchen had everything you would want if you planned to cook rather than eat out.

We very much look forward to our return visit later on this year.

We have just come back from a stay at Bristow's Barn with our daughter, 3 grandchildren and 4 dogs. A beautifully restored barn with plenty of room for us all. Ideal location, very short walk to Weavers Way and short drive to Bacton Woods, Bacton beach and Cart Gap. Stephen very kindly let us check in early which was very helpful.

We loved the location- so quiet and a short stroll to Weavers Way and to Stalham. Big property - it was just two of us and the dogs so we only used downstairs. Dogs loved the grassy garden and the big courtyard. Very welcoming and friendly owner. We really enjoyed our stay at Bristows Barn.

Sue from East Ruston Cottages helped identify this as a suitable property (away from probable fireworks; secure garden for little and big dogs) - not only was it absolutely perfect with no firework noise at all and a lovely garden for dogs and humans, non-slip flooring, crates and stair gates provided, the Barn had everything you need for a comfortable holiday - a fully equipped kitchen, space, plentiful hot water, even throws for the settees, dog towels and toys.
It was conveniently situated for local facilities in Stalham and lovely beaches and walks are a short distance away.
Perfect accommodation in a lovely setting, definitely recommended!

We had the best time!
We have a dog reactive dog and she was able to relax and enjoy walks around the area. She's not much of a beach pooch but there are plenty of walks from the doorstep that are quiet and just great walks.

The barn itself is really clean, has everything you need. Plenty of space in the kitchen, beds are super comfy. Shower was really great and powerful too.

We have been visiting Norfolk with ERC for over 10 years & have watched Bristows Barn being restored so it was lovely to finally get to stay & it didn't disappoint! Huge spotless rooms, a beautiful kitchen & very much appreciated welcome pack. 2 outside areas for dogs (a large patio & a separate lawned area) & we had gorgeous weather so could sit out on the comfortable sun loungers. Overall we have had a lovely week in a very beautiful property in our favourite place.

What a perfect week we had in Norfolk made even better by the fabulous property we stayed in. Extremely dog friendly, we took five dogs and the fully enclosed garden was excellent as was everything else provided.
We had one small issue with hot water one morning,resolved within half an hour.
We will definitely return.

This is our fourth time in Norfolk, this property is our favourite by far!

Great location to get on to the Weaver Way and then 20/30 mins to other great areas for beaches and great walks

The barn is modern, with a totally secure garden and totally secure yard. Total peace of mind, if you have loveable escape artists like us!

Our only wish, would be a hot tub! Nevertheless, we booked again half way through our stay for next year!

Delighted you love our Bristow's Barn as much as we do!! It's such a great space. Really pleased too that you have booked again so soon for next year. If you have a moment, could you just let me have a little feedback that I can pass on to the owner and cleaning team for the 4/5 score for cleaning? They do try really hard but if they had missed something, I know they would like to know. Many thanks and see you again next year! :) Sue

Bristow’s Barn has been refurbished to a beautifully high standard and is clean and comfortable. The position right next to Weaver’s way is great and it is only a short car trip to Happisburgh and Cart Gap beach. The property is ideal for multiple dogs with excellent safe parking and fencing.
We will certainly be back!

We had a fabulous time at Bristow's Barn with our adult children plus partners. The Barn is beautifully equipped plus very comfortable and warm. The beds were extremely comfortable and the ambiance gave a cosy feel. We cooked a full on Sunday lunch plus trimmings with no problem. We had to pack and return early due to the death of a good friend and inadvertently left our salt and pepper set in the kitchen. Stephen was kind enough to post it back to us with no charge. Thank you Stephen, very kind.

We are so pleased that you all enjoyed your weekend break and family birthday celebrations. Bristow's Barn is the perfect spot for celebrating! We are sorry that you didn't think your stay was value for money. That's a shame as your break was just over £33 per person per night. We do hope you might be able to join us on another ERC break soon in the future!

It was a ‘wow’ from all of us as soon as we walked in. The welcome goodies were great and much appreciated too. The barn is warm and cosy and everything has been well thought of, particularly the well equipped kitchen. The location is great for quiet walks and there are many beautiful beaches not too far away. This is a stunning property and now a firm favourite, having stayed at five other ERC properties over the years.

Bristow’s is a large recently converted barn that has everything for guests and 4 legged friends. Totally dog friendly and safe with walled garden and courtyard. The barn has an excellent large kitchen and is extremely comfortable throughout, perfect for returning to after a day at the beach or walking the weavers way

This converted barn is a stunning and comfortable place to stay. Every last detail has been thought of, there was nothing missing for us. The beds were so comfortable we all slept really well. Having 2 separate outside spaces for the dogs was a real bonus, the enclosed courtyard was great for the single rainy day we had, and the enclosed garden was very secure and peacefully quiet with a little lamp-post so that night time toilet for the dogs wasn't in the pitch black. We will definitely be back, hopefully for a stay in the summer next time. Owner is next door, will leave you to your own devices, but is friendly and on hand if you need anything.

We all enjoyed an active holiday with two boisterous grandsons and three energetic dogs, at Bristow's Barn.
We found the spaces the barn provided suited us very well and no one was on top of another.
The warm 'shower' in the garden was very useful, getting rid of sand and mud from the dogs and and the boys!
We enjoyed a day in a boat on the Broads from Wroxham, which was easy to get to and we finished the day with a delicious curry from a Curry house in the middle of Wroxham.
Our host Stephen was very helpful during the whole of our stay
We would definitely recommend the Barn and the area for a lovely holiday.

Bristow's Barn is an amazing place - extremely spacious and comfortable, very beautiful and dog friendly. Very close to the Weavers way and a short drive from several beaches it was the perfect place to stay. Very friendly and helpful host.

Stephen has made Bristow's a wonderful place for a family break. It has retained all the features of a historical barn but its beautifully restored and the 7 of us had plenty of space. With two outdoor areas completely secured you are spoilt for choice of where to sit out and the provision of sun lounger chairs and picnic tables a wonderful extra. The grass garden is a super size and allowed for plenty of garden games with the family and our dog loved it. A warm dog shower is always a brilliant extra too. Even when there was a little hiccup during the week Stephen was very sincere with his apologies. All in all our stay at Bristow's gave my family some much needed respite and we made some fabulous memories.

Bristows Barn was simply perfect for us and our dogs. The accommodation was gorgeous with everything and more you could need.
The attention to detail for humans and dogs from the throws for the sofas, to a warm outside dog shower, a lovely welcome pack for the hoomans, and the most amazing totally secure garden meaning the humans could relax whilst the dogs could play safely.
It’s a short drive from a number of dog friendly beaches, with lovely local walks on the doorstep.

Just returned from a wonderful dog friendly break at Bristows Barn arranged by East Ruston Cottages. Wow factor barn with everything we needed or wanted . Brilliant location, loads of wildlife which our springer loved a bit too much. Space inside was great and enclosed garden was very secure. Five star all the way.
