We've booked using Barefoot for 6 years now - their properties are always stunning and the booking process very easy. Only disappointment is that they don't offer returning guests any discount.

The Nest in Titchwell
Lovely one bedroom cottage with a comfy sitting room, well equipped kitchen and a dining area with a view of the garden and fields beyond from a couple of easy chairs .
First impressions very clean and smart. Good location with easy parking on site and in close proximity to the RSPB nature reserve at Titchwell . Lots of different places around to eat out and a short distance from Thornham and its various food retailers .
Barefoot staff were excellent in providing a timely response to a couple of domestic issues . Would recommend.

The Corner House, Brancaster.
The annual College Reunion was spent in beautiful North Norfolk this year. We stayed at The Corner House in Brancaster which is a stunning property, well situated for exploring the area. Barefoot Retreats are a very good company to book your holiday with. The standard is high and I appreciated having a courtesy call just before the holiday to check if there were any questions. Highly recommend!

Seagrass, Old Hunstanton
We stayed at Seagrass with our daughter, grandsons and dog. It is well equipped, clean and comfortable. The garden is an asset as is the large hot tub. It is extremely well situated - a 5 minute walk from Old Hunstanton beach. Particularly good was the ease in contacting Barefoot Retreats and their speedy response ( a minor issue with the hot tub). I would definitely use this company again

Brancaster
Had a super weekend in Brancaster with our family. House was very well presented and well equipped. The welcome pack and robes and slippers were much appreciated. Our grandsons loved the bunk bed room!

Returning guests
We have used Barefoot a few times before. Once again our recent stay was very good. The house was clean and lovely warm when we arrived on a cold windy evening.
We had an issue with the log burner on the 2nd night but it was quickly resolved after speaking to someone in the office who kindly provided advice to us.
We will definitely use them again and can highly recommend.
