Heritage Open Day at Horsey Barns

Explore the charm of Horsey Barns during Heritage Open Day. Discover their unique history, see what holiday stays are available across the UK, and get inspired for a countryside escape!

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event

Horsey Barns are a collection of three distinctive holiday cottages, beautifully converted from a former farmyard cattle court and granary. Behind their traditional red brick exteriors, visitors can explore interiors that still reflect the site’s agricultural heritage, featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed wooden beams, and flint walls.

Two of the barns will be open to the public during the event, offering a glimpse into their historic character. Visitors can also learn more about the range of holiday cottages available—not just at Horsey, but across the country—offering idyllic getaways in beautiful locations. National Trust staff will be on hand to chat, and refreshments will be provided.

This is a free event. Please note, there is no parking available at Horsey Barns. However, parking is available at Horsey Windpump, just a short 1km walk away, parking charges apply.
