We booked and paid for 4 rooms for 8 people on Hotels.com but the hotel said we only had 3 rooms on arrival.
The hotel provided an alternative room on the first night but on the second night one couple had to sleep on a single mattress on the floor of another room.
While the staff at the pub were apologetic the manager of hotel provided no resolution to the issue.

Great location to explore Norfolk! Very clean room only £10 extra to have the dog stay also. Powered by solar and reusing rain water are a huge plus for the site!
The local pub on site is a great stop off for the night. Reasonable food and beer prices
The only thing that let it down is the water isn't drinkable and we used up our bottles water so had to buy extra from the pub

Great sized family room with the added benefit of being dog friendly. The property was spotlessly clean. Super king bed, large TV with Netflix and free view, great shower! Very impressed for very reasonable prices. The pub next door is cosy, great customer service and good home cooked meals. We would definately stay again.

Beautiful large room with loads of space and accessible for my mobility scooter, with parking immediately outside door. Great wet room. Superclean. The cleaning lady was very kind and friendly and nice to my dogs which was really appreciated. The George and dragon next door was a lovely pub and very nice funny staff there too. Its only 30 mins to the coast so easily driveable so I will definitely come back here for my next Norfolk holiday.

Great dog friendly accommodation. Super comfy bed, excellent bathroom, very clean and well designed and a very quiet and good night’s sleep.
Towels were provided as well as hand soap, body wash and shampoo… provided (but not conditioner). Hair dryer, iron and board as well as coffee and tea in the room and a tv.
Self check in was provided and self check out. A really good accommodation.
Would have loved to be able to have breakfast here but the motel clearly states that it doesn’t provide breakfast. Apart from this it was a wonderful stay!
Very close to the wonderful Castle Acre
