Pond Farm House Bircham
Sleeps 13, from £1285 to £3165 per week
Pond Farm House is a substantial 3-storey Norfolk flint and brick farmhouse overlooking a picturesque village pond, used as a much-loved second home. This is a great place to stay for large groups of family and friends, with plenty of living space in its spacious high-ceilinged rooms, including 6 bedrooms and 5 bath/shower rooms across the 3 floors. Downstairs there is a self-contained annexe, making it ideal for less able guests. Outside there is an attractive walled garden, with sunny spots for dining alfresco or to sit, and watch the wildlife on the pond. It is only a short walk to the excellent King's Head pub/hotel, a village shop and children's playground. The beautiful sandy beaches at Brancaster, Thornham and Holkham may be reached within 15 minutes drive.
Please note that the maximum occupation at this property is 13 which includes infants.
One well-behaved dog is welcome at Pond Farm House, we're sorry but only a female dog is allowed.
NOTE: Whilst the property sleeps 13, guests should be aware that this includes bunk beds which are full size but more suitable for children.

Guest Reviews
The house was bigger than we expected and we loved the way it wsa decorated and furnished. Really good layout for 3 families. Felt very homely. We had a wonderful holiday at Pond Farm House, many thanks.

Thank you very much for the lovely stay in Pond Farm house, Norfolk it really was splendid we couldn't of wished for anything better, the house was much bigger than we thought it would be and it was really good having the annexe where our friends could be away from the children. As I had said it was our daughters 40 birthday and when she arrived her face was a picture she had no idea we would be there I shall remember it for a long time. We would definitely recommend this cottage we have been having holidays in Norfolk for the last 40 years and this was the best we would just love to return sometime again.
