Stayed in a twin room here which was really clean, comfortable beds and pillows, nicely decorated. Breakfast was very good. Would recommend this b&b. Better parking signs would be good as we arrived in the rain at dusk and went to the wrong part by mistake much to the annoyance of the lady there. More

We stayed here for the august Bank holiday weekend & really enjoyed it. The rooms were very comfortable & Joanne & Danny were very welcoming & helpful. Breakfast was delicious & even though the old thorn Barn doesn't serve lunch or dinner, there are many local pubs & restaurants nearby that serve up delicious home-cooked food. We also took advantage... More

The room was clean and tidy and a very high standard. Tea & Coffee facilities were in the room which was stocked up daily, also... More

One night stay here to attend a function in Ashwellthorpe: we used taxis as this is in an out-of-the way location. Our room seemed to be in a modern extension as it was quite small and boxy with a lowish ceiling. It was furnished in a dated 'country cottage' style, with the en-suite bathroom again rather dated - the built-in... More

We were met by Dennis on our arrival as the owners, Danny and Joanne, were away for the evening. We were well looked after as Dennis is a generous and friendly host. Old Thorn Barn is a fantastic guest house and we were exceptionally comfortable in room no. 1. Breakfast is first class and lasted us all day. Hethel is... More

As B & B's go this is one of the better ones. Our room was very clean and plenty of space. The owners have done a wonderful job of renovating this old property. Breakfast was outstanding and the service was excellent. As the location is close to the Lotus car works the pictures throughout the B&B are the history of... More

I stayed at the Old Thorn Barn for one night with two friends, as we were just passing through Wymondham that weekend, and we were looking for somewhere not too expensive. The Old Thorn Barn, whilst having rather an "out of the way location", was a really good find. I think it had recently been renovated, as I could still... More
