“This place presents itself as a genuine find. It seems the hotel is part of a traditional country pub, where open fires and friendly locals create a warm atmosphere on the Broads. I noted the rooms are well-equipped, and the chef seems to make a point of delivering exceptional food; overall, a promising and comfortable base to explore the area.”
