“This place struck me as a particularly good find in Mundford. Beyond the clean, comfortable rooms, I was impressed by the friendly staff and the excellent food-the breakfast especially seems a highlight. The Tavern Bar, with its basement wine cellar, makes it a charming spot to unwind after exploring nearby Thetford Forest.”

The breakfast was ok. It had a lot of options.

The room was really not great. it felt old and was quite small, and i noticed a lot of dust on the curtains which was really off-putting. also, the carpet was fraying near the bathroom. It just didn't feel very well-kept.

I found the hotel to have a quaint, old world charm with its dark wood and original flagstone floors. It felt quite unique. Breakfast was included and it was amazing, offering fresh cooked options along with a good selection of cereals. The lunch and dinner selections were also excellent, with reasonable prices and quality food. I ate there for all my stay.
