Fantastic accommodation and great food, what more can you ask for. I'd recommend booking a table ahead of time as it can get very busy (a sign of good food!).

Great two day stay

Excellent comfy room with a few minor drawbacks, it was over the main restaurant area so was noisy early on, the water pressure on both hot and cold was poor but the shower was excellent and no toilet roll holder. The staff in general were very good and Jenny was excellent. The food in the restaurant was pricey but if superb quality, especially the home made pie.The draught beer was excellent and the wines very drinkable. The room cleaner left a bit to be desired, not a thorough job by any means., only straightened the bed linen and left the towels.

The Plough is a good class pub with clean, modern rooms. What makes them special is that it's such a friendly place to stay and the pub food is excellent. We were there for five days and I could have done with a few more to work my way through the menu. We'll also certainly miss their breakfasts. It is situated well for visiting Norwich and the Norfolk Coast. It's true that you can hear the busy road with the window open, but hey, life's a compromise and we'll happily take that.
