Lovely friendly Inn
Owners could not have been more welcoming and accomodating. We stayed here whilst visiting Thrusford Spectacular show. We had a lovely lunch before we we left for the show all plates were empty and everyone enjoyed the meal. Would highly recommend this friendly in for a stay.

A very poor experience
Hotel was under new ownership and needs considerable work. Heating failed whilst we were there, car park not lit and surprisingly despite a log burner bar area was cold. We had two bedrooms and one was very small hardly a double with no wardrobe. Use of shower a challenge and it leaked all over the floor. Rooms were not serviced and we were advised we should have requested this to happen after the event. Owner(s) were friendly and food good but overall stay disappointing and one of the worst we have stayed in for our annual pilgrimage to the Christmas show at Thursford.

Blue boring
We booked a inn with a room for a special occasion only to find that the pub was shut. This was such a shame as the pub was in the middle of nowhere very disappointing. If they had told us before we arrived we would of cancelled. Staff very friendly and helpful but still not good enough

A Great Stay in Norfolk
Fantastic stay at the hotel. Fully Covid compliant with masking fully in place. Laura was friendly and welcoming and the food was fantastic. An ideal place to stay for both trips to the coast and Norwich.
