Thank you for a wonderful welcome when 17 of us aged 2-80 came on 12th May 2013 for Sunday lunch. The conservatory was an excellent space to accommodate us all, for the celebration of my fathers 80th birthday whilst he was over from Thailand. Everyone enjoyed the meal and the Treacle sponge was a definite hit. Location and parking were... More

I recently stayed here for a couple of nights with some friends and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The room was lovely and warm and although a bit basic it was perfectly adequate. The food however was wonderful. We had an evening meal as well as breakfast and everything was excellent quality, well cooked and served on piping hot plates. All... More

Very cheap, clean, basic B&B fine for the night we stayed. The food was brilliant & there was the option of having a 'Mini meal' - same food, just smaller portions for those that find a massive pile of food off putting, (I also object to paying for all the extra food you just can't eat or don't really want)...

We stayed here as I was doing a driving experience which I booked quite last minute and this was one of the last places left that wasn't very expensive and close. Reading the reviews I was a bit worried about staying but it turned out pretty good. We arrived and were given our room which was already heated. The window... More

My wife and I have eaten at the white lion twice in the last couple of months. The welcome we received upon arrival both times was warm and sincere. There was a small yet well kept choice of real ales and a reasonable selection of wine for my wife. The menu had a nice selection of traditional home cooked meals... More

Just one nights stay on the way to the Norfolk Broads. Lovely welcome into the "Olde Worlde" pub at about 6.30pm. Shown into a basic but very comfortable double room set outside the pub. Back in to enquire about food and had a huge lovely pub meal before wandering into the lovely village. We were asked what time we would... More

I was grateful to get a room at the White Lion as I needed an overnight stay at short notice. A blackboard in the bar said '£30 for B&B' but after I had paid for the room I was told that there was, in fact, no breakfast. £30 is still cheap for a room nowadays, but the room was drab,... More

I did not stay at the hotel. But, we did attend the Sunday Culinary not once, but twice. The chef is young and inspiring. The service was great. The place is clean. It is somewhat aged, but, that is part of the charm. I would highly suggest stopping in any Sunday and enjoy some great food!
