The Old Paybarn

Snettisham sits on the Norfolk coast between Kings Lynn and the RSPB nature reserve, with a broad beach of stone and sand stretching nearly two miles from the village. The Old Paybarn occupies a quiet corner of a small private complex here, a short walk from both the reserve and the shoreline. This converted barn holds two bedrooms and two bathrooms across two floors, sleeping up to five guests, with one dog welcome to stay at no extra cost.

Downstairs you get a king bedroom with its own shower room, plus a living room with woodburner and French doors opening to a conservatory dining space. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, with a dishwasher and washing machine among its appliances. Upstairs, the second bedroom contains a king bed and a single, served by a bathroom with a bath and shower. Outside, there's an enclosed lawn with seating and a bike store; parking for two cars sits on the property. Essentials including heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wi-fi are provided.

The village offers straightforward appeal: the beach itself is the main draw, with the RSPB hides at its southern end allowing visitors to watch winter bird gatherings without membership. Snettisham suits families wanting outdoor access without needing to book activities in advance, or anyone seeking a base for coastal walking.
