ザ ジン トラップ イン

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.

Fab room (the stables) over 2 floors. Great character! Excellent location and lovely staff. Food and drink selection very good.

Not quite the experience we expected based on a recent glowing write up in The Times which informed my decision to book 2 night stay for my husband’s birthday. Very limited restaurant menu - only 1 vegetarian main option. Husband had pie that was recommended- small portion, disproportionately served compared to the size of mash & cabbage. I Requested a side salad to add to my starter as didn’t want the only vegetarian menu on offer. This was poor in terms of lots of lettuce leaves, 3 tomatoes & a few shavings of radishes- disappointing Food offer not good value. Staff friendly but made us aware they are in transitional phase with recent takeover plans of the business, they are awaiting a chef, lots of staff have left etc. Doesn’t fill you with confidence. Our room was nice but a very small bathroom, shower needed a deep clean. Housekeeping did not leave us clean towels, despite clearly visible our towels had been used & were damp! Had to keep asking for clean cafeterire to be replaced & milk to make coffee & tea as no fridge in room. Fire alarm went off at 10pm - false alarm then fire service arrived. Told by staff they have faulty system & thus had occurred several times recently! They have a nice wood burner which we sat in chairs in front of, but this was not lit, instead had a fan heater next to it to keep us warm, not sure if they don’t bother in the week & only lit at weekends? Seemed odd & a ’can’t be bothered’ approach Would not rush back- should have been better

Nice Country pub with dining. Rooms are individual and nicely appointed. Nice touches in the room including a sample of their gin and homemade sweet treats.

Had a wonderful three-night stay at The Gin Trap Inn during May 2025. We stayed in The Stables room with our young dog - it was her first trip away so she was a bit excited and nervous, which she demonstrated by barking more than she should ! The hotel staff were wonderful, dealing with her politely and lessening our embarrassment. Our room was super, with both a shower and a bath, lots of little extras like some cakes in our room on arrival and, despite being on the courtyard of the Inn, was surprisingly quiet. There was even a fridge downstairs - handy for storing dog food. The Inn's location is handy for the beach (drive there) and is a short walk from a village store and garden nursery - both worth a visit in themselves. Parking is limited - but there is an area at the back for residents which is quite tight. The food at the Inn was first class, you could taste the quality in the ingredients. We had both the breakfast (included) and evening meals and can thoroughly recommend both. We will definitely return as soon as we can. The only issue we had was a confusion over payment when we checked out. Having booked via Expedia I contacted them and the issue was soon resolved between them with a full refund issued to me. Again can't recommend the Gin Trap Inn highly enough.

Really pleasant atmosphere and they looked after our dog really well too.

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.

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.

Absolutely fabulous hotel, great location, fantastic staff, lovely individual rooms with character. Breakfast was probably the best we've ever had. Definitely coming back

This place is just awesome lots character food very high quality we plan to go stay there again

Lovely venue but extractor fan noise from kitchen made it hard to sleep. Would not book the room next to the kitchen if you are a light sleeper.

Lovely place to stay with some lovely additional personal touches

We had an awesome time staying here and I was blown away by how good the staff were. The room was stunning. Beautiful bathroom and bed was so comfortable. Arrived to a delicious gin & tonic also. Only disappointment was our evening meal. Very expensive for a tiny chewy steak & cold piece of fish. Breakfast though was great. I would definitely recommend staying here.

A very comfortable room (but if you're over 6 feet tall take a hard hat!), really comfortable bed, great shower, and lovely touches in the room on arrival such as a complimentary gin & tonic, carrot cake, and biscuits. The breakfasts were superb and room remarkably quiet considering it was directly above the main bar area.

First time in Norfolk. Chose the Gin Trap Inn as a base to explore the area. Rooms were very nice, well decorated with good features. The food was very good. Stay included breakfast, which was excellent quality, certainly better than a lot of places we’ve stayed at. Bar areas indoors and a nice outdoors, we spent all our time outside as the weather was fantastic. Had a few bar meals which were good quality. This is a place that serves very good quality food, it’s not a standard pub selling standard pub grub. Staff were very friendly. I’d recommend the Gin Trap Inn.

Amazing Staff, lovely food in a great setting

Superb stay and extra special attention for the dogs. Excellent rooms with lots a of character would highly recommend.

Excellent room facilities and welcome pack with sample G&T cookies and cake in room. Lovely Brew Dog teas and filter coffee also provided. Comfortable bed, good enclosed courtyard patio for our two dogs. Excellent breakfast and well stocked bar. Friendly service. Our third time of staying here - lovely footpath walks around the inn and great base for days out.

Stayed with friends for weekend we had a great time lovely place fabulous breakfast and friendly staff

We loved our room with all the thoughtful touches, including the complimentary Gin. The breakfast was delicious too. We wandered to the general store and the nursery, which just added to our enjoyment
