Barsham Barns - Norfolk Holiday Cottages and Barns

Catering services for a hassle free stay

Would you like someone else to do the cooking during your stay? Whether it’s just for the first night or every day, we have catering services and arrange outside catering.

Here at Barsham Barns Norfolk Holiday Cottages we’ve teamed up with Kelby Light, a fantastic local chef. Norfolk is a great place for local produce and Kelby is passionate about the ingredients he uses so everything is fresh and locally sourced wherever possible.

Kelby can prepare meals that are delivered to the barns. We just need at least one week's notice so ring us with your order and we’ll sort arrange delivery. All you’ll need to do is pop them in the oven!

Alternatively he can come to the barns to cook for you but will need a few weeks notice for private chef services.

Check out the sample menus below to whet your appetite. To book one of our catering services contact the team at Barsham Barns.

Paella - Cooked Onsite

£17.50 per person (min. 20 people)

This makes for a really fun occasion, lunch or evening. The paella takes about 2 hours to cook and the aromas are tantalising as the key ingredients – prawns, mussels, chicken – are fried in the pan with herbs and saffron before the rice and stock are added to complete the dish. And you can watch the whole thing come together with a glass in your hand (banner image above shows Kelby preparing Paella at one of barns).

The paella can be prepared anywhere you like as the gas and cooking pan can be set up in most (flat!) locations.

Traditional paella served with tomato and red onion salad, freshly baked baguette.
