Lovely dog friendly hotel in beautiful Norfolk

Lovely boutique style hotel. We stayed in the Warren dog friendly room with large wet room with safety rails which was a nice surprise as I needed a walk in shower due to mobility issues. Nice enclosed patio at the back for our dog who was very happy with all the attention from the staff at breakfast especially the sausages. Fan in room very useful as room got very hot and couldnt leave door to patio open due to flies which is no fault of the hotel. Nice touch of welcome G & T and homemade cookies. Lovely outside bar area with comfy seating and large parasols for shade. The only thing I could fault was the very limited menu for dinner, only 4/5 main meal options and 4 desserts. What we did have was good but would of liked more options. Breakfast however was anazing, loved the whisky porridge and the cooked Norfolk breakfast.

Love staying here - fourth time.

Love staying here - fourth time, first time for a ‘winter’ break so could enjoy sitting by the fire in the bar lounge area. Great base for day trips to Brancaster, Holkham and Old Hunstanton. Fab breakfast. Enjoyed the pub menu meals as we had two dogs with us. And there was welcome cake and G&T in room on arrival plus quality Brew Tea teas which we could top up as and when needed.

Long weekend away with friends and the dog .

Definitely worth a visit.! The Brewhouse cottage was cosy but perfectly formed. The attention to details made it feel so luxurious . G&Ts on the table waiting along side some brownies and shortbread treats! Not to mention treats for our dog ! Beautifully presented lovely breakfasts and evening meals. Thoroughly recommend staying. All the staff were very helpful and friendly, ready to help in any way they could.

Fantastic night stay, made very special by the extra touches( gin in room, birthday card and dog treats for Daisy our cocker spaniel).Location is excellent, we spent the day at the beach and returned to relax at the Gin Traps garden setting with a gin of course.
