    clean room
    home comforts

    The family room was incredibly clean and cosy, providing a warm retreat after a day out. Just 15 minutes from the polar express, it was perfectly located. The pub on-site offered delicious food, enhancing the experience. Home comforts like the coffee machine and underfloor heating made it feel like a true getaway.

    The spacious room was a delightful retreat, especially after a long day of walking. Being able to park directly outside added considerable convenience.

    great stay but minor noise issue

    The location allows easy access to local attractions, making exploration a breeze. The room's coffee making facilities were top-notch, providing quality brews to start the day right.

    There was some noise from neighboring rooms.

    spacious room
    great facilities
    convenient location
    missing breakfast
    pub closure

    The Pig Shed Motel provided a spacious room equipped with great facilities, including a fridge and coffee machine, which enhanced my stay. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with easy access to local amenities and beautiful countryside views. Perfect for my work-related travels, the location was conveniently situated only five miles from my work site.

    No breakfast options on-site, and the pub next door closed early on Sundays.

    delicious vegetarian dishes
    spacious room
    cool amenities
    pub closure
    key collection hassle

    Oh mate, the grub at the George and Dragon next door was a right treat! We savored some cracking vegetarian dishes that made my taste buds do the cha-cha. The room was spacious and clean, with a lovely stash of tea, including some quirky alternatives. That pedestal fan was a cool touch too—quite the lifesaver!

    Now, here’s the cheeky part, the pub was shut before we could get our hands on our key card. Had to ring the owner for a workaround, which was a bit of a faff. It's the third time I've swung by, and I’ve always enjoyed a pint there, so this left me high and dry to dash to Swaffham instead.

    comfy rooms
    great pub food
    ideal location
    road noise

    Had an awesome time with friends! The location was perfect, just a quick stroll to George and Dragon. Rooms were super comfy, and there was plenty of space for us. Make sure to check out the pub food, it's really good! Just a quick heads up, the EV charging wasn’t working but everything else was great.

    We heard some noise from the nearby road, but it didn’t spoil our stay.

    high-pressure shower
    spacious room
    noisy door

    The shower offers high-pressure water that makes for a fantastic experience, washing away all stress of travel. The room design is stylish and spacious, providing ample room for relaxing after a long day.

    The access to the shower over a high-sided bath raises some safety concerns, particularly for older guests who might find it tricky to navigate. A noisy bathroom door handle could disrupt sleep, especially at night when others are trying to rest. the limited breakfast options in the area require a short trip for morning meals, which might not be ideal for those hoping for convenience.

    I enjoyed my stay in a comfortable room with a powerful shower and friendly staff who were always ready to help. the room could use better cleanliness and more thorough maintenance, as I found some areas lacking attention. Good for a short stay with access to dining nearby.

    The Pig Shed Motel impressed me with its modern yet cosy design and easy access for seniors. I particularly appreciated the spacious room filled with natural light and the beautiful countryside views just outside our window.

    A breakfast option would be a lovely addition.

    spacious room
    dog-friendly
    undrinkable water

    Perfect for exploring Norfolk!

    Had a nice 2-night stay! The room was super clean and really spacious. Loved being able to take our dog for just 10 extra quid. The local pub was a chill spot, with decent prices for food and drinks. Just a bummer that the water isn't drinkable, so we had to buy more. a nice experience!

    comfortable bed
    inviting decor
    basic amenities

    comfortable stay but room could use more features

    The bed was exceptionally large and cozy, ensuring a restful night's sleep. I also appreciated the attention to detail in the decor, making the space feel inviting and warm.

    The lack of additional amenities in the room made it feel somewhat basic for the price.
