The Good Hotel Guide is the leading independent guide to hotels in Great Britain & Ireland, and also covers parts of Continental Europe. The Guide was first published in 1978. It is written for the reader seeking impartial advice on finding a good place to stay. Hotels cannot buy their way into the Guide. The editors and inspectors do not accept free hospitality on their anonymous visits to hotels. All hotels in the Guide receive a free basic listing. A fee is charged for a full web entry.

Renowned for its herb garden, with some 400 varieties, this Georgian merchant's manor house is set in 30 acres of Norfolk parkland. The country theme is continued throughout – garden herbs are used in the spa, bedrooms are named after plants, and cabins with freestanding tubs on the terrace overlook the orchard.
Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
Renowned for its herb garden, with some 400 varieties, this Georgian merchant's manor house is set in 30 acres of Norfolk parkland. The country theme is continued throughout – garden herbs are used in the spa, bedrooms are named after plants, and cabins with freestanding tubs on the terrace overlook the orchard. All bedrooms have an espresso machine, fresh milk, homemade biscuits. House bedrooms, in a country-chic style, have a classic feel, in keeping with the building. Dandelion suite has a sitting room, balcony, wet room and in-room feature bath. More contemporary dog-friendly rooms around the spa garden have a private terrace, a bath and waterfall shower. In the airy, buzzy restaurant, home-grown produce inspires dishes such as wild garlic and pea soup with cheese dumpling, followed perhaps by pot roast chicken with cauliflower purée. If you can't decide on pudding, order a range of mini puds to share. After breakfast, which might feature kipper with mustard butter, a full English, or a lighter spa breakfast, take a trip to Sandringham, five miles up the road.
