    Shower-water pressure very low, barely a trickle. As we were only there a couple of days, we put up with it, we would look to re visit but would need to know this is not a factor throughout the hotel, especially if we were staying longer. Didn’t say anything as only 2 days but a consideration if staying longer.

    Staff excellent, food exceptional! Great location for parents home and to look around the area.

    The bed could be a bit more sturdy :) The supporting middle leg doesn't sit properly on the riven tiles and so it swings a bit. The shower was a bit too hot and I couldn't really work out how to turn it down.

    This place is so quintessential English. Its just lovely. We had a dog with us and were really please to be shown into a ground floor room with french windows to a private enclosed garden for the dog. But more than that, the place was like an airbnb in so far it had its own kitchenette with fridge and microwave and little seated area for eating only someone else did the cleaning. There was also a spare bed. We were just a couple and a dog, but the room is very spacious and ample for a small family to stay comfortably. I honestly could live there. The staff were so lovely and friendly. I really liked how they employed a range of different people from the village, you could tell it was a real hub for the community. Its not posh or plush, its definitely a pub, but its just perfectly so. The breakfast was delicious and amazing value considering 2 x Egg on toast and coffee came to £30 in Castle Acre, so 2 full English and 2 coffee in with the price was amazing. The restaurant food was good and homecooked too. The village is lovely, there is a convenient co-op/ butchers/ deli down the road with everything you need, but the really great thing is, Thetford Forest and the Arboretum are just behind the property, literally a 5-10 min walk. On the photos I thought we were driving to the woods, but no, we just walked there really easily. We really really loved this stay. It was like a big cuddle

    Thoroughly enjoyed having excellent staffing always with a smile and nothing is too much trouble - You feel a valued customer here. Full English was a full English a generous serving - supplemented with Tea Coffee , Cereal . Yogurts Fresh fruit juice and Toast. Would I stay there again, Not half. Most definitely. Evening meals are available in either the Restaurant or Bar - There is seating outside for when the weather is fair. Hot meals were served HOT that's not like most places I go, So Yes a must stay location.

    A lovely old property in a picturesque village, with two very friendly staffed bars. The food was delicious on both days of our visit. The sleeping accommodation was very comfortable and clean. It was our second visit to the hotel to meet up with family who live in the area, so will definitely be back again.

    Comforatble stay at a historic inn

    Nothing really. The Crown is always comfortable and welcoming. I appreciate that they are having staffing difficulties at the moment - there were notices apologising that they wouldn't be able to make up all the rooms each day due to short staffing/recruitment issues - but this didn't cause us any problems. It is an industry-wide problem in hospitality at the moment.

    We've stayed at the Crown several times and the quality of our stay keeps bringing us back. This was the first time we were in this room and it was really nice to have a bath as well as a shower. The inn is over 300 years old but manages to combine just enough 'olde worlde' charm to be memorable with all the modern facilities you would expect to be really comfortable. As usual, the breakfast was excellent. I also recommend booking for dinner. We will be back next year.

    This is super picky really, but I would have liked curtains in the bedroom. The blinds make it feel a bit bare. A few pictures on the wall.

    Lots of character. Comfortable bed.
