Welcome to The Barsham Arms
A warm Norfolk welcome awaits you. Having just undergone a half million pound renovation by the father-and-daughter team of Imogen & Ian, we are absolutely delighted to welcome you to the Barsham Arms and Accommodation.
Step inside our much-loved, beautifully historic, and delightfully quirky property. Some say our roots stretch all the way back to the 1200s, and for centuries this inn has stood proudly in the heart of one of Norfolk’s most breathtaking landscapes. Having hosted guests ranging from Henry VIII to the Bee Gees - and even the odd ghost - we're proud to acknowledge our deep local roots.
