A good choice 👌
Pros:

The room was nice and spacious, with a queensize bed. Plenty of hanging space in the wardrobe and draw space ample to suit our needs.
Large shower in bathroom for a refreshing start to the day.
It was also nice having our tea/coffee biscuits and chocolate drink replenished everyday 😋

Great restaurant and accommodation in Norfolk
Pros:

Found The Olde Windmill Inn to be a great place to stay with my dog. The room was of ample size and provided everything I needed for a comfortable stay. As a family we ate multiple times in the pub at breakfast and dinner times. The food was great and good value. There was a vast choice of beers and ciders on tap. The staff were all polite and courteous at all times and more than happy to help with any requests. Plenty of parking at the back of the pub and extra space available at the campsite/overflow parking opposite. Would definitely stay again when visiting the area.

Nice but not enough information on check when for solo travelers
Pros:

Lovely location

Cons:

Room numbers and layout confusing; wasn’t given instructions when checking in where breakfast would be served so missed out on they dispute having it included in the room price. Soft drinks very over priced which was disappointing
