Oyster Barn, formerly an oyster shucking shed (hence the name) is a contemporary detached barn conversion situated right on the coast at Titchwell.  Stunning views across the marsh to the sea can be had from the platform in the property, especially through the telescope!  Marsh Harriers are frequently seen here. Sit and watch the wildlife in the reedbeds of the RSPB Bird Reserve or take a stroll down Gypsy Lane to the beach and view the seals inTitchwell Creek. The barn is extremely spacious and very comfortable with lots of space for families to spread out.  Titchwell Manor ,one of the best eating establishments in Norfolk, is next door and Briarfields Hotel and restaurant a few minutes walk so if you did not want to use the fabulous cooker you don’t have to! A wonderful space to enjoy the North Norfolk coast.

Guest Reviews

“After a long journey Oyster Barn was the most welcoming place - spacious, modern and very tastefully equipped. We couldn't have been happier for the few days over Christmas. We were very comfortable and able to walk from the house to the beach, watch the birds from the viewing point and enjoy cooking on the Aga. We all loved it there.”
Schweitzer from Haslemere Surrey, December 2011
“Three generations of our family really enjoyed our week in this spacious, well-equipped house. We are keen bird watchers and the proximity to Titchwell RSPB reserve, as well as the house viewing platform, were a great boon. There are lots of places to visit and things to do in the area and we enjoyed several lovely walks, seeing seals on the beach nearby and deer in Holkham park.”
Barbara Todd from London, October 2011
“ Really lovely house, very clean and well equipped. Greatly appreciated the flowers, wine and hand soaps - lovely touches! Fantastic week again in Norfolk, lots of fun and your viewing platform offers a perfect snapshot of Norfolk beach life! Thank you.”
The Y. Family, from Essex, UK, August 2011
“ We loved the house - you have thought of everything. We will be sad to leave and would love to come again. The jigsaws and observatory were a real hit. The kitchen was superb - so easy to cook and cater for 3 generations! Many thanks.”
The R Family, from Kenilworth, UK, August 2011
“ Lovely, spacious house. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your lovely home. We were spoilt for choice with walks, pubs and wildlife. Would recommend the walk down Gypsy Lane to see seals and their pups - beautiful. Also Orange Tree in Thornham, Ship in Brancaster, not to mention Titchwell Manor next door! Great. ”
Mr and Mrs P from Cornwall, July 2011
“ Totally groovy house. Loads of great windows, loads of space for the kids and the brilliant viewing gallery above the kitchen. Would love to come again! Check out Wells beach - Black Terns! Also don't miss the RSPB at Titchwell (bird watchers' heaven). Many thanks. ”
The B Family, from Peterborough, July 2011
