Great weekend break location
Second visit to the Gin Trap Inn. Lovely comfortable room (Brockmans) albeit a little dark...perhaps some brighter bulbs in the wall lights on dimmers? We ate in the restaurant on our first night ad the food was excellent. Highly recommend the duck starter. Overall, extremely comfortable with some nice touches such as a locally distilled gin and tonic upon arrival.

Overall Good
Room was very nice and comfortable and lovely and clean. Unfortunately there wasn’t a residents lounge only the pub bar area. The breakfast was extremely good although we were disappointed with the Sunday lunch as the portions were small and at £25 for the main course we would have expected more on the plate!

Lovely 2 night break
Lovely 2 night break at the Gin Trap. Staff very friendly & helpful, room was spacious & comfortable with a huge bathroom. Breakfast was delicious with lots of choices & high quality food. Pretty area with easy access to the North Norfolk coast & a lovely circular walk from the inn, would definitely recommend a stay here.
