Very quiet location,but close enough to many areas of interest. Had a few minor hiccups, but nothing that would stop us returning for another visit. The room was very spacious and the shower room was more than adequate.

Owner would not allow us to check in/leave our luggage before stated in check in time. Only continental breakfast provided and served in a very haphazard/small area.

The b&b is a well run place in the middle of nowhere Swaffham. We had a lovely, comfortable and clean room. There was a really great selection of foods at breakfast and even a hot breakfast option for a little extra. Very satisfied.

Unusual experience
Checked in at 6pm. Owner clearly expecting us and took us quickly to our room. Comfortable room. Spacious bathroom. Good wi-fi. No information about breakfast/dining arrangements. We had intended to eat in but 2 grizzling children in the dining area put us off. No sign of the owner anyway. Breakfast p!dutiful but completely he!p yourself. Brief appearance of the owner, no other guests! Cooked breakfast would have cost an extra £7.50 each and had to be ordered the previous night. We rummaged in the cupboards to locate items and felt rather uncomfortable. Strange to find an exercise machine in the middle of the dining area. Convenient location certainly no warm welcome. Doors locked, no sign of the bar trading for the local community. Strange experience for a country inn.

A great find if you want peace and tranquillity. As it's an inn you could eat in the evenings as well without having to drive and the food was superb. My husband reckons it's the best steak and ale pie he's had and the whitebate was superb. We'll stay again if we're in the area.
