“This family-run hotel, set within 3.5 acres of landscaped gardens, offers a convenient base near Norwich and the Norfolk Broads. I noted the outdoor seasonal heated swimming pool and fully licensed restaurant and bar - a welcome addition. While some areas could use updating, the overall charm and personalized service still shine through.”

Great Experience for Ground-Floor Access
ground floorcharging pointample spaceperfect location
I liked that ALL the rooms were on the ground floor. The location met my needs well for visiting local friends. A charging point was available, and that really helped me. The car park provided ample space for vehicles.
i found limited options on the menu. THERE was only one dessert option available.

a slightly underwhelming experience
clean roombroken showertowel shortage
the room was clean, which met my basic expectations.
I stayed one night and i am disappointed. the shower in my room was not working, and despite reporting it, it was never fixed. additionally, there was a distinct lack of towels for my shower the next morning. I had to wait for the chef to bring one.

The king size bed offered adequate comfort. The breakfast arrived quickly.
A function caused some noise late into the night. I could hear the disco, laughter and screams from my room. The room was called 'beautiful', but furniture had chips. The toilet roll holder sat on the bathroom floor.

Convenient Stay Near Norwich
convenient locationfresh breakfastgarden viewavailable parking
The location proves convenient for exploring Norwich City, Wroxham, and the Broads. I found the breakfast selection good, including a freshly cooked English breakfast. The room offered a garden view. I appreciated the available parking.
I noticed the bathroom mat was not readily visible. It was hanging on the back of the door rather than being placed inside the bath.

The staff welcomed me so warmly! The hotel provided plenty of onsite parking which I appreciated greatly. It felt really safe! Every member of staff was friendly.
The hotel did not have AC. It was very hot when I visited. A louder road bothered me because I couldn't keep my window open.
