We are a family run business passionate about engaging with the local community and creating unforgettable moments. Our belief is that excellent produce does not travel and we pride ourselves on using the finest that East Anglia has to offer.

The property boasts a 32 cover restaurant space, within this, a 12 seater private dining/conference room. Serving seasonal and ever changing menus all year round.

Since taking over the business in 2022, we have made the addition of our outdoor space, with a large enough footprint for an 80 seater stretch tent. The soft bark flooring, picnic benches and pergola, make both an ideal and flexible location for both team building activities and family events.

Our ambition is to create a truly immersive experience where you can both feel at home after a long day of meetings or spoil yourself as part of an indulgent staycation. With eleven beautifully decorated and well equipped bedrooms nestled next to our intimate restaurant, which is situated at the heart of this original coaching inn. The wooden beams and Hypnos beds come together in merging the old with the new.

This extension to our main restaurant space, built using reclaimed timbers, really does feel like a marry into the history of the building. The versatile space can hold private parties or meetings on a boardroom style table up to 12 guests. Along with flexibility to be completely screened off from the rest of the restaurant with soundproofing doors. It can be used for conferencing or parties requiring privacy, as well as having the option for the doors to be completely opened to share the atmosphere of the main restaurant.

For corporate usage, our main restaurant serves lunch to the public Thursday through Sunday. Giving you an option to use this space for break outs or an assurance of privacy during your daytime agenda. Package Description: We believe that no two events are the same. Every guest has a different specification of what they require, their budget and agenda.

With that, we aim to offer a completely bespoke package. Room hire starting from £150, with as many or as few extras you would wish to add. Buffet or Set lunch options, A La Carte or Set Menu dinner options, bedroom accommodation, Tea, Coffee and other refreshments. All tailored to your needs.

    Our first time at this restaurant, which is a great pity considering the amount of times we have passed it on the way to Norfolk. It is a charming place with excellent service and cooking. The set lunch menu was well balanced at a reasonable price making for a memorable meal, well worth a visit.
