We were greeted on arrival by a very friendly chap, we later found out was named Owen. He's a very lively chap and goes out of his way to make you feel important, which made us feel comfortable. The room was quite small, but spotlessly clean, the bed was one of the most comfortable we've had in a B&B and we had a restful sleep. The area is beautiful and on the edge of a lovely hamlet with far reaching views, only a 20 minute drive into Norwich for the shopping. We ate here on our first night and were delighted with the quality of the food. I had fish and chips, both were piping hot and using really quality ingredients. Jill had Lamb shank, which unfortunately, she couldn't finish as it was too much for her. We couldn't eat a second course, even though I was tempted by it. Breakfast was the same high quality standard and I did think at the time, how lucky this pub was to have such a talented chef. I met with the landlady later that day and found out that the chef was her husband who had worked abroad and that they had been running the pub only since June 2024 and that she only had limited experience of working in the sharp end of the trade. I was amazed really, as the atmosphere within the pub is relaxing and welcoming and all the staff are warm and friendly. A special place with people who have a gift in customer satisfaction. We stayed a second night, and we both again slept well and will definitely be booking a stay again. Thank you for a very special weekend, it meant a lot to us and we look forward to visiting again soon.

Very friendly staff. Clean and comfortable room. Lovely breakfast served in the morning

Lovely room in a nice village location. Friendly staff

Staff was wonderful and we were put in Room 1 which faced the street. We thought it was going to be noisy being above pub but I had one of the most comfortable sleeps in a while. Friday night we had some drinks in the pub and we found staff was super friendly and clientele the same. We made some friends and we are looking forward to next visit. Some people commented about breakfast but for us was enough. A nice touch that there is the fridge. Lovely room and nice shower too. We had roast lunch on the Sunday we were leaving and it was delicious. It is recommended to book and you don’t be disappointed.

Friendly welcome and service for drinks and food (dinner and breakfast). Good home cooked unfussy food. Though basic accommodation everything we needed was available in the room.

Comfortable, homely, all staff very pleasant and helpful

Very clean, large room & easy to find.

Great location, very clean & tidy, quiet surrounding and fantastic breakfast.
