I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it was, given that it was a pub. I was expecting a lot of noise in a pub on a Saturday night, but it didn't happen. The bar doesn't play music or TV and the customers weren't very loud (though the rooms do overlook the beer garden, so you can hear some talking if you open the windows). Room was very clean and comfortable and the staff were super-friendly, helpful, and polite. It's in a convenient location, not too far from the main roads and the coast. Probably the best room in a pub I've ever had, and definitely on my list of 'places to stay when I go birding in Norfolk' from now on!

Castle Acre is a village with a lovely feel. The main street is picturesque and the area has a lot of history. The local pub was under new management and the couple running it were extremely friendly, welcoming and full of ideas to support and include people from the village.
The pub serves great food and the cafe next door also has an extensive menu to suit every dietary need. There are lots of walks in and around Castle Acre.

There is plenty of history in Castle acre. The castle & priory ruins are a must see. There are beautiful scenic walks to be had in the area & the old town is very quaint. I stayed outside the town & noted the ease at which you could access other parts of that part of Norfolk. The Ostrich pub is closed at the moment for refurbishing but my understanding is it will open soon.

Castle Acre was a short stroll from the Pig Shed where we were staying. The castle ruins & Priory were great for exploring & a wander up the river on the way back. Great fish & chip shop, shame the only pub in the village has shut but the local Spar shop sells take away draught ale & lager amongst many other things.
