Truly excellent room and location.
Pros:

The room (209) is a luxury suite with a balcony and fantastic views out over Oulton Broad. Watch boats coming and going, seagulls soaring past the balcony, a large group of swans and lovely scenery. We have stayed before and found that they have added a DAB radio to the room; this was very useful. Free slippers, tea/coffee/water and biscuits provided. All really good. A truly excellent experience that will not disappoint. The weather was exceptional, which was great, but even on a dreary day this is a nice place to stay. Free parking on-site.

Cons:

The pub is buzzy with friendly staff and good views out over the broads but we felt the choice and quality of the food lets it down badly. There is a mismatch between the lengthy wait for not great meals and the lively upbeat pub atmosphere….a great shame.
