It was the perfect place for our stay as it was very close to the church, where we were attending a concert. The staff were very welcoming, helpful and friendly. The room was lovely, very clean & well presented, with an excellent shower & very comfy beds. The big downside was the noise from the pub’s outside space until the early hours of the morning. We expected some noise, of course, but this was a bit much - only managed 5-hrs sleep. But overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Nice stay, but can be noisy.

Nice location and friendly staff. Room was fine but right on the street so can be a bit noisy on weekend nights. Unfortunately there was an event in the village until 2am on the night we stayed, which was a bit noisy. Not the hotels fault, but it did disturb our sleep.

I would definitely stay again. The staff were really helpful when I said I’d be there very late, finding a way to help me check in smoothly. There was no cooked breakfast option - which is in the listing - but tea and coffee in the room, and a snack pack was provided (which I hadn’t expected). Staff went out of their way to help me park - the car park is small, but they found a way. This is an old building, and rooms aren’t sound-proofed in the way of modern hotels, but the cost was also half of what I might pay elsewhere. A good value option if you’re needing to stay close to the coast on a budget (who isn’t on a budget these days?), with helpful staff. I will return.

Miss a stay here and you miss a real treat!

From the immediate warm and genuinely friendly welcome, to the home cooked, delicious pub food, we could not fault this delightful inn. I have to be honest, I was not expecting the high standard we experienced for the price paid and so were especially delighted. The lovely touch of two (unexpected) continental breakfasts in 'go bags' for our onward journey the next day to the wonderfully comfortable bed and the obvious pride everyone we met takes in their property I cannot praise them highly enough - thank you !

Superb

One night, just me- I was impressed by the little eco-friendly touches, paper wrapped soap and coffee sachets little reductions in plastic add up. As other reviewers I thought it was a lovely touch to include decent breakfast options in a little bag that I could eat there or take away. Only issue was the noise made by the water whenever I, or another guest turned on taps, shower or toilet. It was disconcerting but everything worked fine and I was more than comfortable. Great stay, not bad price either.

Good clean affordable room

No free parking space so used large local cp.Friendly greeting from Hannah who showed us to our clean twin-bed room.Just the one chair. She explained that there was a complimentary breakfast in the bags. Photo attached. Also that there was Karaoke until 1am. A hot Friday night and a lively crowd until the wee small hours. All of this was available in previous reviews but it was a last minute booking and local to relatives and we hadn't read them, so a bit of a surprise.Still, good value, and probably avoiding Friday or Saturday, we'd stay again, but might get a breakfast in a local cafe.

Clean and comfy

Clean and airy room. Beds were very comfy. Shower was very good. Had Sky tv. A complimentary breakfast bag was in the room so very nice touch. The room faces a busy road so it was noisy, we had to have them open because it was very humid however, a decent fan was inthe room so slept perfectly. Decor could do with an update.

small but perfect

I only needed a simple single room, that is what I got. I even had a space to park my motorcycle. Single bed small bathroom with a shower. I didn't expect a TV but there was a small one with a sky package.I was happy with the price, and impressed it came with a pre-made breakfast. It was a Friday night and the room was over the bar of a lively pub so there was some noise until just after midnight but it didn't tarnish my stay.

I would definitely stay here again if I’m back in north walsham. There’s absolutely nothing I could fault about my stay here for the week.
