Taking over the business in 2022, our ambition is to create a truly immersive experience where you can both feel at home after a long day of meetings or spoil yourself as part of an indulgent staycation.

We change our menus at least 4 times a year so be sure to keep an eye out for our seasonal dishes. There will also be exclusive tasting menus for notable dates and special occasions.

Norfolk is all about big skies, stunning vistas and far-off horizons on which you can always spot a Saxon or Norman church tower, but it’s also racing through forest trails on bikes, clambering through woodland adventure parks and kitesurfing in the tumbling waves.
It’s the sum of the parts that makes Norfolk so unique when it comes to choosing a holiday or short break here. There’s something to suit all tastes, interests and pockets.
