About us

Our Story

Meet the Deane family – Hannah, Ian, Joe, and Harriet – the heart of Dairy Barns. We take great pride in welcoming guests to our family farm and are passionate about making their stay as memorable as possible. Joined by our fantastic team, we are committed to offering exceptional service and ensuring you feel right at home.

Dairy Barns has been part of Lound Farm and the family farming business for three generations. Since opening our B&B in 2005, we have continued to deliver an excellent experience and are thrilled by the number of guests who have repeatedly chosen us for their stay. Our B&B is an essential part of Lound Farm’s history, as these quaint accommodations were once home to over 100 cows and served as our working dairy farm. Many calves were even born in the barn, now serving as an undercover car park. As our farm continues to grow, so does our dedication to providing our guests with a unique and enjoyable experience.

Our family, staff, and idyllic setting make Dairy Barns one of the most luxurious B&B North Norfolk coast has to offer. We look forward to hosting you, hearing about your wildlife discoveries, and making your stay relaxing and memorable.

Our Family Farm

Apart from being the home of Dairy Barns, Lound Farm is a bustling, working farm that revolves around the seasons. Our agricultural land is active throughout the year, with sheep grazing during winter, while a herd of suckler cattle occupies the farm in the summers. Ian, our third-generation farmer, cultivates various crops, including wheat, barley, peas, potatoes, and grass for hay and haylage.

The picturesque countryside offers ample opportunities for walks along farm tracks, meadows, and autumn stubble fields, providing a haven for nature enthusiasts. The farm’s surroundings also teem with local wildlife such as red deer, Muntjac, Chinese Water deer, and hare throughout the year. Birdwatchers are in for a treat with regular sightings of barn owls, cranes, marsh harriers, swallows, housemartins, skylarks, pink-footed geese, kingfishers, and yellowhammers.
