About this property
Lakeside wildlife retreat: Live nest cams, deer and private garden. Dog friendly
Escape to The Annexe at Littleton Farm Barns, a tranquil sanctuary nestled on a private hobby farm in the heart of Norfolk. Whether you are a nature enthusiast, a keen golfer, or a family seeking a peaceful getaway, our property offers a unique "front-row seat" to the best of the Norfolk countryside. From deer wandering past your garden to live wildlife camera streams inside your living room, this is a place to truly unwind.
The Wildlife Experience. We believe in bringing nature to you!
Live Nest-Box Cameras: Watch the secret lives of our local birds from the comfort of the sofa via live feeds directly to the Annexe. (nesting season will often apply)
The Garden Visitors: Sip your morning coffee in the private garden and keep a quiet eye out for deer wandering by or birds of prey soaring above our rewilded land.
Lakeside Views: Enjoy the calming backdrop of our private lake, a magnet for local Norfolk wildlife.
Space to Relax & Play
The Annexe is designed to be a "home away from home" with thoughtful touches for all ages:
Covered Outdoor Dining: Rain or shine, enjoy meals alfresco in your private, sheltered dining area.
Family Entertainment: Keep the kids (and the young at heart!) entertained with a PlayStation 3, a selection of games, and board games for cozy evenings in.
Dog-Friendly: We welcome your four-legged friends! With a private garden and a dog-friendly pub just a stroll away, it's a paradise for pets too.
The Perfect Location: Village Charm & Town Access Forget the car! You have the best of Saham Toney and Watton within a 10-minute stroll:
The Local Pub: A charming, dog-friendly pub is just a 10-minute walk away—perfect for a Sunday roast or a quiet pint.
Town Amenities: All the shops, cafes, and conveniences of the local town are just a 10-minute walk from your door.
Golfers Rejoice: We are situated directly next door to a stunning 18-hole golf course. Walk from the farm to the fairway in minutes.
Explore Norfolk Centrally located, the Annexe is the ideal base for exploring the county’s famous landmarks:
Thetford Forest (15-20 mins): Endless trails for hiking, mountain biking, and Go Ape adventures. The Norfolk Broads (40 mins): Hire a boat and spend a day navigating the world-famous waterways. The Coast (Under 1 hour): Discover the vast sandy beaches of Holkham, Wells-next-the-Sea, or the traditional charm of Cromer.
Accommodation Details Private Entrance & Parking: Secure on-site parking and your own entrance for total privacy.
Kitchen: Fully equipped for self-catering stays.

Host Note As a working hobby farm, we take pride in our rewilding efforts. While guests don’t have access to the entire 11 acres to ensure the wildlife remains undisturbed, you have your own dedicated private garden and access to specific nature trails that offer stunning views across the estate.
