Fabulous pub and food
Room perfect for visiting Walsingham. In a pub serving great food for both evening meal and breakfast. Room was a bit small and dated. It’s a period property so low ceilings etc but still could be better. Staff lovely.

The only drawback was that the hotel was classified as pet friendly but, although dogs are allowed in the bar and restaurant, they are not allowed in the bedrooms. Our dog had to spend the night in the car!

The staff definitely cared and the food was magnificent. Slap bang in the middle of Walsingham. Lovely ancient authentic hotel - watch your head.

Comfortable bed and friendly staff.
The only difficulty we had was the stairs were a bit difficult for my husband who needs a walking stick. Some of the ceilings were low but staff pointed these out. The ensuite was quite small. It was quaint and the surroundings were lovely. We also found it hard to get a signal for the satnav and apparently it's common there. Worth working out the route just in case.

Lovely setting and the property is now under new management so there's a "younger"feel to the property. Restaurant and food very good. Breakfast good but an option of a "continental " style breakfast would be nice for those guests who prefer something lighter. Bikes were locked in safe place.
