Really enjoyed my stay. Room was great, so was the bathroom. Friendly staff. Breakfast excellent. My only negative was that I would like to have eaten in the evening but the menu was very limited.

I couldn’t fault the service nor the food or drinks. They were definitely what made the experience more comfortable than not however when I stay in hotels I tend to look at the bathroom for the most details. The only issue I found was the shower units not being tall enough and the fact that the water run out the shower effortlessly. Other than that, I can’t fault it any other way and would happily stay there for another night or two.

Second time staying, a beautiful place tucked away just outside Norwich. Staff very friendly, my room in the cottage was lovely. Breakfast was ok, with a small choice but was adequate. You can go for a walk near the hotel but it is a very busy road with no pavements so take care.

Lovely place to stay!

Every aspect from the staff, to the food, to the added extra of the outdoor pool were fantastic! The hotel is on a busy road, so we thought perhaps the noise would cause an issue but we couldn’t hear it from our room. It’s an absolute little gem and we will happily return.
