“The location overlooking the Broads is undeniably a strong point, with many rooms capturing those lovely views. While the charm of an older inn is present, some areas clearly require attention. The breakfast, a cooked-to-order affair, is well-executed, though the lack of lighter options might not suit everyone.”
