Friendly staff.The room was large and well furnished with a very large comfortable bed. The bathroom was clean. Being an old property, there were some cobwebs. Teh wifi was not good for us. The hotel is at a road junction with some traffic noise. Friday night was live music downstairs until 11.45 and then activity until 2.00am - ask about it in advance if you are a light sleeper.

Absolutely beautiful property that resides in the quiet and tranquil area of North Elmham. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the front of house staff member who was very pleasant, polite and helpful. We went up to our room, which upon opening the door, we were amazed at just how big the room was. Super king-sized bed and all the furniture made from solid wood. The bathroom was exceptionally spacious also. The bed was comfy, there were plenty of facilities (ironing board, iron, soap, body wash, tea & coffee, kettle, mirrors, hair dryer, fan etc), really quiet location, pleasant staff, clean, great food, all at a fantastic price. A well deserved 5 stars all round from me.

We were a group of 4 cyclists touring Norfolk and this is a truly excellent place to stay. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food was very good - not pub food by any standards! - and the beer was also top notch. Highly recommended.

Comfortable room but no cooked breakfast available
It was a lovely comfortable room with a very helpful host, however the breakfast was very disappointing as it was only Continental, and there was a lot of work being done in and outside the hotel when we arrived and dust was in the air inside reception. This stay was missing a cooked breakfast!!

Had better stays here …
Stayed here a few times over the past few years but this time had a different feel to it the room 14 when I walked in had a very musty smell that was coming from the bathroom and had To have the bathroom light on to run the extractor fan to help clear the smell also soundproofing between us and the next room wasn’t the best. Lots of locals in the bar and I felt like a bit of an intruder. The Continental breakfast they offered for £7.50 didn’t seem worth it. No hot Breakfast during the week

Spot On 👍
Fantastic! Lovely greeting when I first walked in to the Hotel, then the fantastic Guinness, steak and mushroom pie, then the wonderful, very clean room, and soooo comfy bed, it was all just fantastic. Thank you. If I’m in the area again for work I’ll definitely be going back. Thank you.
