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.

What a wonderful place. The room was large and spacious with a wonderful view of the river. Meals were flavourful and plenty. I genuinely say that the breakfast was the BEST I have had in all my years of business travel.

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

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.

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.
