Snettisham was a railway station on the King's Lynn to Hunstanton line which served the village of Snettisham, ten miles north of King's Lynn in North Norfolk, England. The railway marker depicting this is still on our down platform. Opened in 1862, the station closed along with the line in 1969 Some excellent historic video footage of Sir John Betjeman's journey from Kings Lynn to Hunstanton can be accessed online via BFI Player where he stops off at Sandringham and Snettisham and recounts: “I can think of few pleasanter places to hang about in on a sunny afternoon like this than Snettisham Station”
Whilst guests can use the entrance terrace and the outside front access area, the platforms are not included as part of the booking due to health and safety reasons. Special arrangements may be negotiated with the hosts during your stay.
Station House is the old Station Master’s house and the annexe is the old station. It is now a disused station but still retains many of the old railway features. Martin and Debbie Perry purchased the property recently and are updating and restoring it.
