Comfortable

Quite a pleasant place to stay. Lovely breakfast in the morning. Staff were very friendly. Didn’t eat there at night. They were fully booked on the first night. Couldn’t fit us in. Never mind booking, there ought to be some form of auto reservation system for paying guests. We drove into wells and had fish n chips on the front!!

Jean, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved the room having a balcony, the view was great and liked that it was away from the pub and road, we found it was very quite. The best thing was the staff, they were very polite and helpful nothing was to much trouble. We thought the location was very good for getting about, it made for a good base. We enjoyed the food especially the breakfast. All in all we would definitely stay here again.

Garry, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Food was not great at Evening. Breakfast faultless. Shower err! No wall fixings so my partner had to shower me. Not what I want. No shower door or curtain. Water everywhere. Water hot and on demand so a bath was possible but I just need to shower without my partner spraying me.. Jury out on this one. My partner argued with bar staff about dinner quality. Brancaster Mussels where disappointing.

Great stay at Red Lion, Stiffkey

Lovely stay at The Red Lion. Wonderful food especially amazing cooked breakfasts. Staff very helpful and welcoming. Nice clean room. Very comfy. Stairs up to room so may be tricky for people with mobility issues.

Great pub and fabulous food!

Lovely accommodation with a balcony which had lovely views. The pub was lovely, the food was excellent and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The area is very pretty - nice for a walk after dinner We would definitely recommend this lovely pub
Bronwen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were very welcoming and friendly, and did everything possible to make our stay a good one. Facilities overall were very good, though room would’ve benefited from having a proper fixed shower unit. Food was also excellent if a little pricey, and couldn’t fault the service at all, staff were fantastic.

What a lovely hotel, such a friendly and efficient service and lovely staff, general areas of the hotel ate beautifully decorated and the rooms very comfy

Andrew, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great service, friendly staff. The one downside was no overhead shower, just a bath with a handheld shower. As the accommodation isn't very old (unlike the beautiful old pub) it was a little disappointing but not a deal breaker.
Gary, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

ideal for a stay in north Norfolk

The welcome and customer service were outstanding. An example being the item on the menu my wife hoped to have for dinner was sold out and the waitress and chef combined to provide an excellent alternative. would have liked to have a shower facility in the bathroom and the bed mattress was softer than we prefer
Roger, 2-night trip

Lovely stay

Great location for wells Lovely room and good selection of breakfast Could not connect to Wi-Fi the whole time we was there but this did give us opportunity to be phone free!!
Carolyn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nicely furnished room. Comfortable bed and some outside space with chairs to sit in the sun.
Pamela, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

A simple hotel with all basic necessities in the room. Room was a reasonable size with a lovely little terrace outside. Bathroom is a good size though shower very small and door didn’t close. Lovely bar area and conservatory for breakfast. Breakfast was good food hot. Unfortunately no gluten free bread available. Best bit was the staff all unfailingly helpful and friendly. This is a little gem of a place.
