The Dabbling Duck

Had a wonderful stay at The Dabbling Duck. Our room was lovely and clean with a great view of the Village Green. The staff, who were extremely busy serving Sunday lunch were very polite and helpful. We had a booking in the restaurant, where the food was amazing, as was the breakfast. Over all, this is a stunning place to stay and chill, absolutely loved it, 10/10.

Had a two night stay to attend a wedding at a nearby venue. Excellent choice

Spent two night at the quirky Dabbling Duck, location in a pretty village is ideal for walking and exploring the area by car. The hotel staff are really friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Room was small but there was a mixup at booking so on arrival we had to be allocated a different room as we had a dog. DD is super dog friendly and they are welcomed in all areas. Food is very good with plenty of variety, breakfast is hearty and all dietary requirements are catered for.

We had a wonderful 3 nights stay at The Dabbling Duck, from the warm welcome on arrival to checking out all the staff were welcoming and helpful. Food and drinks were also outstanding, especially the wood fired pizza's.

Excellent village pub with great staff and atmosphere that matches its surroundings and in keeping with good old inn values. The chef provides a great variety of flavors and quality dishes all served hot and on hot plates. The stairs are somewhat challenging for the elderly and mobility impaired. I didn’t realize when booking that I could have requested a ground floor room. My bad - should have read the small print. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Super friendly staff nothing to much trouble.fantastic room and view.

So pet friendly. Would def try for the garden rooms as steep stairs to the pet friendly room above the pub but we booked late and only stayed one night so wasn’t an issue. Staff are always so friendly , atmosphere is great and good delicious. Def one of our favourites

Amazing place to stay. Very friendly and comfy rooms and great food

It was a beautiful hotel and the service was excellent. We stayed in a triple room which was unfortunately too small for 3 adults but we only stayed one night so managed.

Friendly staff delicious food and perfect cocktails! Love the style and decor, particularly the album covers on gents loos!

Second visit after a 2 year gap. We didn't think that the general standard was as good. Breakfast, help yourself choices, relied more on dried fruit. The 'main course' choices were just as good though. We stayed in the 'pigeon' room (No 7) which was right next to the children's play area and the army of very noisy kids (thanks to their parents) easily penetrated the double glazing and shutters of our room. Probably our fault for booking a stay in the school holidays. Made the most of using the DD as a base and 'DID' a lot of N. Norfolk. Evening meals as good as usual.

The Dabbling Duck set in a beautiful little village fulfilled our expectations of a relaxing night away. The menu choice in the restaurant was excellent and the staff delightful. Our dog Polly was made to feel very welcome with a dog bed, water bowl and a few treats.

We stayed as we were going to a concert nearby. Perfect for what we needed. We however were surprised how nice it was and didn’t take full advantage. We will be back for another stay and a meal etc!

We stayed in the house next door to the pub and it’s an amazing place to stay. The rooms are spacious and very well decorated. If you eat in the restaurant try and get a table inside the restaurant and not in the bar area as this was quite noisy.

Perfect overnight stopover, quiet, friendly and comfortable.

Room was too small for two people. Nowhere to hang clothes. Short bed which made it uncomfortable.

Lovely place to stay. Comfortable, welcoming and a relaxing nights sleep

Food was fantastic and atmosphere was really good.

Stayed for two nights. Free parking onsite was available. The room was up 10 narrow steep steps so we decided to leave the suitcases in the car. The room (5) overlooked the village green and church. The room was very small but had a little lobby area and a small bathroom. The Internet coverage was poor to our room. The bed was comfortable. There is a very nice looking restaurant which serves a variety of meals, mostly meat based. There was very little vegetarian choice. I didn’t feel I had to give warning as it’s not uncommon these days but maybe I will in the future. We were told on arrival that booking through Hotels.com meant breakfast wasn’t included but if the booking is made direct with the hotel it would be. Breakfast was a meagre buffet offering (£8.50), coffee is extra, or there was a more expensive menu option. There is a lovely tearoom opposite the hotel which opens at 9am and they have a wide range of breakfasts at a reasonable cost!

The restaurant and bar was excellent. Beautiful village pub with plenty of atmosphere.
