The staff were very polite and helpful. The food, both evening meal and breakfast were excellent. The building had a very rustic and cosy feel. Would imagine at Xmas, would be very atmospheric and charming. Definitely will return if visiting this part of Norfolk again.

Plenty of parking available and easy to find. Staff were friendly and breakfast was nice, however our room had a strong smell of dog and wasn’t the cleanest. Areas of the pub look like they need a freshen up and they definitely need to hoover the hallways more as there was plenty of dog hair everywhere! Probably wouldn’t stay again for this reason.

Room was good to be fair. The staff (apart from two of them) were unhelpful not what I would have expected. A couple of things we asked for felt like a chore for them. Breakfast was pretty okay, mail meal not really impressed.

Telly and WIFI did not work although staff did sort these matters during the stay. Restaurant service was chaotic but food was good. These young man who checked us in and out was especially helpful and competent throughout our stay. Breakfast was okay but cooked breakfast really good and always hot and fresh.

Nice room with air conditioning (which was a blessing in the recent heatwave!). Lovely dinner choices and even better breakfast. Quirky deli and farm shop nearby. Nice little getaway.

A comfortable hotel on the coast for walking and bird watching. A rather limited menu but the meals were perfectly cooked. The wine list was fairly extensive but over priced. The breakfast was fabulous!

Lovely property with very nice and helpful staff. Food and drink was excellent. Just unfortunate that the room was so hot. It was a warm day but considering it was April and a 20-22C day I was shocked how uncomfortable the room felt. Portable AC is provided but not overly effective.

We stayed for two nights at The Lifeboat and it was a very nice place to stay. The evening meal choices were very good as were the breakfasts and the food we ate was lovely. The room was spacious and we had a great view. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A great venue to visit many places from. So pleased we stayed there!
