“This inn, with parts dating to the 17th century, exudes a historic charm that immediately sets it apart. I noted the emphasis on personalized dining, including options tailored to families, alongside the hyperfast Wi-Fi-a practical touch in a setting that otherwise feels far removed from the everyday. The location makes it an ideal base to experience the tranquil pace of South Norfolk.”

the room wasn't properly cleaned. i found hair in the bathroom sink. also the traffic noise early in the morning was quite disruptive. i really struggled to sleep well after 6am. this overshadowed some of the other positive aspects of the stay.
