Our Norfolk Retreat, Burnham Market Part 1

Home a week so needed to make a start. Wasn't quite sure where to begin but decided on beginning by posting on the property that we stayed in, in Burnham Market.

This was the front of the property, owned by Barefoot Retreats. Our apartment was on the first floor (the 3 windows in the centre) 

and below a shop owned by Barefoot Living, all part of a conglomerate. More on that later as it was a very interesting shop.

We found the village general store next door a bonus.

Looking out the back from the kitchen window

where one could see an ancient water pump

The white doors right opposite belong to one of the Barefoot offices. All of the staff here and in the shop below were extremely friendly and helpful at all times.

An original fireplace in the second bedroom (no longer used) from centuries ago

The apartment has been beautifully modernised but a tell tale to its age was the slightly sloping and uneven floors

Here too an original fireplace in the master bedroom

 but now boarded up

Bath robes and slippers provided

Hospitality gift waiting for us including Prosecco in the fridge. The Apple juice here was from the Sandringham estate and the cake from a local Confectioners was delicious 

and now into the kitchen

The Utility room on the ground floor

I'd have liked to have taken this chest home with me!!

There is some interesting history to this property  which will be posted later.

As you know it always takes a while to get hundreds of photos sorted. Especially when they are taken at random on both my camera and i-pad. 

Hope you enjoyed and do come back.
