Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
By the parish church in a quiet village mentioned in the Domesday Book, this inviting pub is a popular gathering place, liked for its 'relaxed, jolly atmosphere'. All-day refreshments, 'top notch' pub classics and inspired-by-the-seasons dishes, cooked by chef Piran Dewey, are served in the pared-back bar and dining room, or alfresco under heated parasols, overlooking the green. A garden bar serves draft beer, quality gins and English sparkling wine. Overnight guests sleep in contemporary bedrooms, where rustic features mix with modern amenities (air conditioning, a rainfall shower). Dog-friendly garden rooms have outside seating. Part of Anglian Country Inns; see also The White Horse, Brancaster Staithe. (David Sefton Fox, and others)
