Proper old style pub with no pretensions, friendly staff, decent food and drink, would recommend
Pros:

Clean room and bathroom, easy access from annex back into main pub, no issues with parking, ordering bar food no problem and plenty of options for seating, I sat in side 'snug' bar which was a little quieter for Friday & Saturday nights, a range of clientele but all good natured and nothing rowdy; ample breakfast on both days meant didn't have to buy overpriced food at Snetterton circuit...

Cons:

Nothing really obvious, a bit further from circuit (off the main A11) than I would normally choose as was 'working', but the drive through Thetford Forest made up for that...

Perfect - just what we needed
Pros:

From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptional.
We received such a warm welcome, and our cottage was beautifully presented, stylishly furnished and far beyond what you’d expect from a typical hotel suite. The beds were wonderfully comfortable, with linen and towels that felt pristine.
The pub is a delight: cosy, inviting, and full of warmth.
Dinner was superb, with both starters and mains cooked perfectly. Regrettably, we couldn’t manage dessert.
The staff deserve particular praise — attentive, knowledgeable, and consistently friendly throughout our stay.

Thank you to the entire Crown Hotel team. We look forward to returning.

Cons:

Having to leave - Wish our stay was longer.

Super comfortable. Well fed and rested, couldn’t ask for more from an established and lively village pub-hotel
Pros:

Ancient and great pub, very much alive and the heartbeat of the village. Multiple dining spaces, Bar, restaurant, private dining, food was great, not gastro-pretentious, just classics done well. Staff were also great, especially the hotel and breakfast hosting team.

Cons:

Single rooms a bit bare, Worn - but that part of its charm. Showers could be a bit cleaner.
