“For a solo getaway, the Black Lion Hotel in Little Walsingham strikes a comfortable chord, particularly when fresh smoked salmon headlines the breakfast menu. I found the rooms to be generously sized and well-appointed, though the plumbing's nocturnal outbursts could use attention. It's a very good service overall and a tranquil base for exploring the area-earplugs might be advisable.”
