Brilliant location, Excellent Room and Breakfast
Really lovely stay right on the river. The room was large, clean and a good view of the river and a massive bonus is the excellent breakfast and the pub does 1st class food for dinner.

Great food, average rooms
Really cool place on the water and the food was very good. I was out early in the morning, but was given a nice breakfast to take away.
The rooms are definitely an after thought. My room was cold, and no heater. I found an ironing board myself by taking for it.
Bed wasn’t great either.

Nice place, great staff
Staff were lovely but bit confusing as to where to check in.
Room was nice, spacious and clean, but accommodation areas (including stairways etc) could all do with a bit of sanding down and paint touch ups (peeling paint in bathroom, scuffs on walls…)
Not a bad place though, would stay again

A lovely place for a short break.
A lovely spot on the river. Room was perfect, staff were very friendly, food and drink was superb.
Not far from the station at Wroxham where we parked for free and took the train for a day in Sheringham.

Lovely large room and en-suite. Dog-friendly. Staff are really friendly and helpful. Fabulous breakfast. Difficult to open windows and the rooms are accessible from the back of the pub so you have to go outside if you want to go to the pub which isn’t ideal if it’s cold/rainy. Overall though a fabulous stay.

We stayed two nights in the family room, which was really nicely done up, amazing view onto the river and plenty of space for a family with two kids. We were a bit disappointed with dinner at the pub however, with the food being pretty average and service slow. Other than that I would definitely recommend staying here for a short break in the Norfolk countryside

The whole experience from checking in to checking was first rate.
Staff always had a smile and a warm welcome for all who entered the pub, nothing was too much trouble.
I was not able to have the breakfast due to start time on working so, they made up a breakfast bag for me each morning which was a nice touch.
View from the room was great and nice to sit by the water.
I will look forward to returning to the pub later in the year.
Over all a much better service than from most hotel chain.

Lovely riverside inn!
Lovely pub right in the river. Parking tricky as shared between two pubs and the public and almost impossible at certain times of day during the summer. But free. We stayed 4 nights in total, and while the rate wasn’t cheap for the class of room, given the time of year and location was fair value. Breakfast was astonishingly good value and enormous! We ate in the pub all 4 evenings and dinner portions similarly huge and fair value for the area. Good quality, and one minor issue with undercooked fries was dealt with quickly and efficiently. The rest of our meals were really tasty and enjoyable. I’d recommend this pub quite highly - it’s a good area and aside from the slightly tricky parking, we had a very enjoyable stay in the area.
