The coastal position was great, but the room was small.

“Joy”

The coziness and location. Also the thoughtful doggie details

“Perfect location, cosy and fabulous breakfast!”

The room was lovely, the bed super comfy, it was quiet and cozy with the open fire, the staff were lovely, the location was perfect, and the breakfast was the most amazing—perfect! No complaints.

“great location, nice food, good value , very nice staff”

The place was all nice, just wish there was a comfy lounge area—otherwise nothing else to complain about.

“Another comfortable stay in this perfectly located hotel”

The rooms were spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated, with no signs of wear or tear, and the staff were very friendly. The location is ideal for reaching the north Norfolk coast. I’ve stayed here many times and will keep coming back, but the restaurant food is disappointing.
