The biggest value of the booking with the £40 towards dinner on the first night. The food was lovely and the portions were generous. However, the service as not pleasant. We waited 15 minutes after being seated to get someone's attention to order our food and drinks. It felt that the hotel was very understaffed generally. We also were unable to shower due to the water being scalding. I informed reception of this on our first morning of our two-night stay and nothing was done to rectify this. Needless to say we did not stay for breakfast the next morning - we were keen to get home and shower.

Great location just a short walk to Oulton Broad and not far from the sea. Fantastic restaurant located in the huge barn and our Superior room was perfect. For winter visitors, it could do with a fire and cosy seating in the bar but otherwise a super stay.

This was an excellent deal. The hotel is lovely & our room was large and very clean. Water was piping hot & shower was a good rain shower. Our room opened onto a small courtyard so you walked down a footpath to the restaurant and bar. Food was great, breakfast freshly cooked to order & evening meals excellent. The restaurant, Crooked Barn is a really lovely room. But what really makes this hotel so great is the staff! Everyone was so polite, friendly and welcoming, a real credit to the hotel. We shall definitely return.

The position is perfect. A short walk to the Broads or Carlton Marshes visitor centre and walks.
