The details

Hidden away on a peaceful working stud farm in the Norfolk countryside, Jimmy’s Shed is a beautifully restored historic barn that offers couples a wonderfully private escape surrounded by open fields, horses and complete tranquillity. Despite the humble name, this is far more than a simple shed. Lovingly transformed using reclaimed and salvaged materials, the space blends rustic charm with thoughtful design to create a truly unique and memorable place to stay.

Tucked away in its own secluded setting, Jimmy’s Shed immediately invites you to slow down and switch off. Original features have been carefully preserved throughout the restoration, while large windows frame uninterrupted countryside views that make the outside feel part of the experience. The open plan interior feels warm and welcoming, with a cosy wood burner sitting at the heart of the living space, perfect for curling up after long countryside walks or evenings spent beneath the stars.

The kitchen area is beautifully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay, including a double oven, fridge/freezer, butler’s sink and dining space with bar stools beside the fire. Thoughtful arrival treats await too, with fresh milk, orange juice, tea, coffee, wine, crisps and biscuits all ready for you when you arrive.

The sleeping area is designed entirely with comfort in mind. A sumptuous super-king size bed complete with a feather mattress topper promises long lazy lie-ins, while the stylish ensuite bathroom features a walk-in shower, basin and loo along with handy shelving for toiletries and essentials.

Outside is where Jimmy’s Shed truly shines. The large enclosed garden offers complete privacy, making it ideal for guests bringing dogs along for the adventure. Spend afternoons stretched out on the decking with a drink in hand, fire up the barbecue for alfresco dinners or gather around the fire pit as the evening draws in. The private hot tub is the star attraction, offering uninterrupted views across the fields and some truly spectacular stargazing on clear Norfolk nights.

Set on a peaceful thoroughbred stud farm, guests are welcome to wander the surrounding grounds and spot the mares and foals grazing nearby. While the setting feels blissfully remote, you’re perfectly placed for exploring the very best of Norfolk. The charming market town of Hingham is just minutes away for local pubs, bakeries and shops, while Norwich, Thetford Forest and the stunning North Norfolk coastline all make easy day trips. After busy days exploring beaches, woodland walks and historic villages, there’s no better feeling than returning to your secluded hot tub and soaking beneath the stars in complete peace and quiet.

Had the loveliest of stays in September. Alice and Charlie were so welcoming and friendly. My friend and I went with the intention of enjoying the peace, reading a book and painting and we did exactly that. The perfect place to switch off and hide away from normality. We are planning on returning for longer next time.
