Description Home Farm is a traditional detached House standing within an attractive garden in the heart of the village. Features such as the diaper work in the faηade and the construction of the north gable illustrate the great age of this property which has been extended and altered over seven centuries. The well-proportioned accommodation, with many interesting architectural features, now merits further modernisation. The sheltered garden also contains an extremely useful outbuilding and plenty of parking space.
There are two Home Farms in the village and this one is not to be confused with the holiday letting complex on the Holt Road. It is possible that this was part of the demesne of the lord of the manor which is mentioned in 1536 when Weybourne Priory was suppressed. This ruined Augustinian Priory stands in the grounds of the fine parish church which lies a short distance to the east. Opposite Home Farm is the thatched building that was formerly the well-known Gasches restaurant and the village shop is also close by. Weybourne possesses a hotel (The Maltings) and pub (The Ship Inn) along with a village hall and bowling green. As a Service Village under the new Local Development Framwork it is likely to retain its vitality even though it is a Conservation Area.
Nearby the famous Muckleburgh Collection denotes the villages strategic location against the threat of invasion. The coastal path, attractive heathland and Sheringham Park all confirm this as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The towns of Holt and Sheringham are within a short drive and the latter provides a rail connection to Norwich and beyond.
