Breakfast was good Location was in dinning room was OK
United KingdomSarah and Mick were so welcoming. It is a beautiful farm, really peaceful and we had a lovely time. The breakfast was fantastic and the room was very clean. Thank you for having us!!
United KingdomQuiet, peaceful location in the countryside with an amazing variety of animals on the farm. Hosts are very friendly and accommodating, and the breakfast provided kept us full all day. Our room was well appointed and comfortable, with a lovely view of the grazing paddocks. A really relaxing break, will definitely hope to return here.
United KingdomWyvern Farm is the standard ladies and gentlemen! 10/10 without exception. Sarah and Mick are both down to earth very likeable people. They made my partner and myself feel right at home and made sure everything was comfortable for us. I have stayed in so many different bed and breakfasts throughout my life and I rank this as number 1. A truly wonderful experience. The breakfast was on a different level. Tottally blown away, will definitely be coming back. Thank you Sarah and Mick.
United KingdomEverything, comfortable bed, good food, great hosts, all the animals and land you could ever want and brilliant showers to go with! Will come back again
United KingdomSecond stay here. All was lovely. Excellent breakfast.
United KingdomFrom initial search this property jumped out head and shoulders above the rest. On arrival you are immediately welcomed into their home and feel so very welcome. By far the most wonderful experience home or abroad using Booking.com. Wonderful setting looking out of the windows and if you’re very lucky you might get a chance to see the donkeys, pigs, goat, chickens, geese and not forgetting the rather friendly family cat! Tranquility … ahhhhhh.
United KingdomBreakfast was lovely. All the options were available from toast, cereal, yoghurt, fruit, juice, and full cooked breakfast. They even provided me with a milk alternative (even though i didnt enquire before arriving!) The purple room was lovely. Very comfortable, warm and spacious. Tea and coffee amenities in room also. Hosts were very welcoming. I was even given a tour of the farm animals out back which was a lovely touch. Would stay again.
United KingdomFriendly host, lovely farm, luxury rooms and quality breakfast
United KingdomLovely and cosy. We only stayed for a night and that’s our only regret we didn’t stay longer. We’re going to have to come back and stay longer and explore the beautiful area. Thank you to Sarah for being so accomodating

Host Information
Wyvern Farm Bed and Breakfast is a 10 acre smallholding set in the heart of the beautiful Norfolk Countryside and is home to Highland cows, Rare Breed Pigs, Sheep, Pygmy Goats, Donkeys, Alpaca's, Chickens, Dogs and Cats. With the River Yare flowing along the boundary of the farm there is an abundance of wildlife to be seen including kingfishers and deer. With two beautifully appointed rooms, guests can enjoy the peace and tranquillity that Wyvern Farm has to offer along with the stunning views across the paddocks and those with a love of animals can stroll around the farm and meet all the animals. Wyvern Farm is a short distance from the Cathedral City of Norwich and the bustling market towns of Wymondham and Dereham.
Mick and Sarah are extremely proud of their smallholding and look forward to welcoming guests to share their enthusiasm of the country life. As producers of rare breed pork guests can rest assured that the quality of the breakfast sausages and bacon is second to none. All ingredients used in the Full English Breakfasts are either produced here at Wyvern Farm or locally sourced within a 10 mile radius. Mick and Sarah's other passion is their donkeys. Guests can come and meet the standard donkeys who came from The Donkey Sanctuary, the two Miniature Mediterranean Donkeys or the very rare Poitou Donkey.
Wyvern Farm is fortunate enough to have two footpath passing through the property so for the keen rambler there are some lovely walks right on the doorstep, or for the avid train enthusiast Thuxton Station on the Mid Norfolk Railway is just a short walk along the footpath from the farm where guests can board the train to either Dereham or Wymondham. Barford Fishing Lakes are also a short walk from the farm for those wanting to enjoy a day of fishing.

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
