The baby kestrel has grown up.
Here are the two baby Barn Owls currently nesting above the pottery.
Our lovely visitor from the @hawkandowltrust confirmed that they are 16 and 25 days old.
Our weekend guests again spotted the adult Barn Owl swooping over the water meadow at dusk.

“There he is….”
Beautiful video of our resident Barn Owl, taken by some fabulous guests. The first sighting this year.

Always something brilliant going on in #norwich. Today it was #dragonboat racing on the river with @newwaveevents_
You can get into Norwich from North Farm in about 30 minutes.
As school starts back today, reflecting on how many brilliant and free things there are to do in Norfolk, including this incredible sandy beach. You could come for a fortnight and visit a different beach everyday, all for the cost of petrol and an ice-cream.

The incredible view from the top of St Helens Church, Ranworth. Climb the 89 steps to see Norfolk at its finest.
There’s a brilliant boardwalk and nature centre in the village and a lovely pub @themaltsterspub.
Around 25 minutes from the farm.

@timestravel named the Norwich to Sheringham line as one of the UK’s most bucolic rail trips.
But did you know you can actually get all the way to North Farm by public transport, by alighting halfway along at Hoveton and Wroxham and catching the @burevalleyrailway1991 to Brampton. It’s the. A delightful mile or so walk across the fields to North Farm. #slowtravel at its best.

One of our favourite places to visit @blicklingnt . To make a day of it, combine with a visit to the magnificent @bucksarms_ . Brilliant beer garden (when the weather warms up) and cosy restaurant with log fire in the winter.
If you want to add some adventure to your holiday, there are lots of activities to book at @hautboisactivitycentre including crate stacking, abseiling, standup paddle boarding and climbing.
@hautboisactivitycentre is under ten minutes drive from the cottages and can be combined with a paddle on the broads or afternoon tea @apieceofcakecoltishall

Delicious selection of cakes and lovely atmosphere @biddystearoom in Aylsham.
Along with @bread_source (which is due to expand into bigger premises) Aylsham now has two cafes serving amazing cinnamon buns. Eat your heart out, Copenhagen!

Loved being back at the New Year fireworks at Cromer Pier. Wistful and hopeful at the same time…
Happy New Year and here’s to 2022!

Date for the diary….fireworks from Cromer Pier on New Years Day.
Combine it with a post Christmas stay in Kingfisher Cottage or a romantic retreat in the Shepherds Hut. Both currently have availability…..

We are very much hoping that North Farm will be reopening on 4th July, with new cleaning safety measures in place.
The cottages are mostly booked for Summer but we still have week of 17th July in Kingfisher, and 28th August in both cottages.
Shepherds hut has lots of availability!
