The Old Barn Self Catering Cottage

🐶 Hi there! I’m Nigel, and along with the team at mYminiBreak, I am absolutely thrilled to welcome you and your furry family members to The Old Barn in Heacham 🌊.

Whether you are planning a family seaside holiday, a romantic escape, or a get-together with friends, we treat your pups like family and always welcome wagging tails and happy paws 🐾.

Lovingly restored from an original dairy farm building, our cosy 2-bedroom dog-friendly Norfolk holiday cottage sits just a 3-minute stroll behind the dunes of a year-round dog-friendly beach near Hunstanton, making it the ultimate coastal home-from-home.

🐾 Why Guests Love Staying at The Old Barn:

• Year-Round Beach Freedom 🏖️: Kick off your shoes and walk straight to Heacham South Beach, a vast sandy shoreline with no dog restrictions where you can watch the sun sink directly into the sea on our rare west coast.

• Cosy Open-Plan Living 🪵: Relax downstairs in a bright communal lounge featuring comfortable seating, a Smart TV, an electric wood-burning-style fire for chilly nights, and a fully equipped self-catering kitchen with a handy washing machine and range-style oven.

• Peaceful Farm Courtyard 🌾: Our barn is dropped below the road level for wonderful privacy and shelter from the sea breeze, offering a tranquil countryside setting that is completely tucked away from the hustle and bustle.

• Comfortable Sleep for Four 🛏️: Features a cosy master double bedroom upstairs and a twin room with two toddler beds—perfect for children, plus plenty of space downstairs for your dog's favourite bed.

• Handy On-Site Dog Wash 🧼: After a fun day exploring the rock pools at Old Hunstanton or hiking the coast, you can easily rinse off sandy paws and salty coats at our dedicated wash station.

• Courtyard Evenings & Stargazing 🔥: Share stories around the shared courtyard fire pit (perfect for toasting marshmallows), fire up the BBQ, and look up at some of the clearest, unpolluted dark skies in the UK.

• Prime Basecamp Location 🥾: Step straight onto the King Charles III England Coast Path, take a short drive to the royal woodlands of the Sandringham Estate, or spot wildlife at RSPB Snettisham and Titchwell Marsh.

• Flexible Annexe Option 🚪: Travelling with grandparents or friends? The Old Barn can be booked alongside The Churnery—our adjoining B&B room—via a lockable internal door to create a flexible, larger layout.

• Easy Booking Patterns 📆: We operate on a convenient Friday–Monday and Monday–Friday changeover schedule, which is ideal for quick weekend breaks or relaxing mid-week coastal getaways.
