  • Mr West

    We really enjoyed our stay at The Archorage in Snettisham. The cottage was beautifully presented and well equipped. I would recommend the cottage to anyone staying in the area. Our advice would be to book early for meals at the Rose and Crown pub and also to get in early for the (superb) breakfasts at the Old Store. Both are recommended and are very close to the cottage, but tend to get very booked up.
