    A beautiful b&b with a lovely breakfast. Hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The room we stayed in was in its own separate building so felt private. Bathroom was gorgeous, beds were comfy - overall perfect for our stay!

Company info

Andrew and Bridget Archibald drove past the old Victorian School on the edge of the Shouldham Green one day. It was boarded up and ready for sale. Acquired a year later through an auction they set about converting it into what it is today. Full of character and artefacts picked up from at home and abroad it provides a feast of colour and interest. Andrew is a trained chef and cooks up delicious breakfasts winning an award from Visit England. They look forward to welcoming you to this special place in West Norfolk and helping you to relax and explore.
