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.

An amazing place to escape and relaxe, had a really great time chilling at the Duck

Atmosphere and aura from staff and building excellent

Suffice to say, if we're looking for somewhere to stay in the area again we won't need to look any further than The Dabbling Duck. We were well looked after from start to finish. Superb accommodation and lovely food - especially the breakfast which was perfect.

It's a very busy pub so quite noisy. The food is good, but the room we had was very small and cluttered with a radiator (which could have been put away in the cupboard) and a large fan. The biggest problem was that there was no internet and the management attitude was - "Well it is North Norfolk!" Which is not really acceptable in 2025.

A wonderfully charming and friendly place. Great service and staff.

lovely inn with good food in a quiet village and central for North Norfolk.

This was our third stay at the Dabbling Duck, always enjoyable. Very good food, service and a lovely pub and setting.

We would love to stay again, really enjoyed it. Room was comfortable, dinner & breakfast both relaxed and beautifully cooked. Dog freindly, so was great for us. The space is understandibly put aside mostly for diners with tables set up, but the bar area could really do with being larger and more comfy seating. Posh, obnoxious kids took over in the bar which was annoying, but that is not the establishments fault.

Lovely village, comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful.

We loved the vibe and all the quirks that make this a lovely place to stay

Super stay as always. Staff very helpful and cant do enough.

Stunning looking building and a stunning location. Most of the staff are great, helpful and friendly apart from one man (who seated and served breakfast in the morning) looked fed up and borderline rude. Apart from that, it was a lovely stay.

Such friendly staff

Really clean, comfortable room. Nice soaps, tea, coffees and complimentary vodka! Evening meal was delicious, steak cooked perfectly. Breakfast equally great. 10 out of 10
