Pros:

Such friendly staff, they were very helpful, courteous and polite. The meals were amazing, dinner was sumptuous, and the choice at breakfast catered for every palate. The room was so spacious, I almost got lost, haha. Although there were many guests staying at the weekend, the hotel never seemed overcrowded because of the lounge, bar area and outdoor seating. A real gem on the north Norfolk coast. Next time, I shall bring the dogs!

Cons:

The only thing that would have made it better was if my late wife could have been with me, I know she would have loved it.
