Good Comfortable Stay

It was a very relaxing stay. Was there for one night. Breakfast was superb and happy with the room I got. My only issue was the bathroom maybe hadn’t been checked for shower gel etc.

Fabulous stay!

Absolutely wonderful one night stay, solo, after walking holiday. Met with chatty friendly team, throughout. Beautiful comfy bed & bathroom. Excellent beautiful toiletries. Wide hot drink selection. Huge tasty breakfast choice even with my gf. Walked around the village & beach. Had no need to travel further! Would 100% stay again & have recommended to friends already.

Wonderful staff

Its a lovely hotel. The room was teeny, but clean and well equipped with all that we needed. It was also very quiet in the room which was nice. Food was slightly boring menu, but the food we had was delicious. Its a quirky place, which I loved. The staff were next level lovely. Nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely stay again, we had auch a nice time - ooh and very very dog friendly. Id almost say it was a dog hotel and humans were allowed!!

Set in beautiful countryside on the north Norfolk coast. The Inn is welcoming, the room was spacious and clean, and the breakfast was delicious. Also, this is one of the most dog friendly places we have stayed. We will be returning.

Comfortable, clean room. Admin not so good. No reply to an email enquiry and no receipt emailed on checkout Very limited food options and no non alcoholic beers in stock. Some staff excellent others less so.

Short break before Christmas

All good except needed more light in the bathroom over the mirror as it was difficult to shave.

Not happy

Not what I was expecting to travel from lifeboat to other hotel. Not hotel fault it the booking company false advertising they should specify that you could end up at their sisters hotel.
Nancy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Disappointing

Sorry to say the catering side i.e the restaurant not very good. They had run out of several basic items such as chips and wholemeal bread. Food was average and took to long to be served! Also far too many dogs which I don’t think should have been allowed in the restaurant area. .
