The Crown Hotel Mundford is situated in the heart of Norfolk's Thetford Forest. Sitting opposite the village green, we offer an informal welcome to all, whether you are travelling on business or enjoying a more relaxing stay in the area. Dating back to 1652 the Crown has seen many guises over the centuries, in particular as a renowned hunting inn playing host to the local magistrates court.
What is particularly unusual for this part of the country is that the Crown is built into a hill, where you can equally walk in on ground floor level to the bars and to the first floor restaurant & garden. We serve food daily, from an extensive bar menu and specials menu of the day, using as much locally sourced produce as possible.

Services
We have 40 rooms with well designed en-suite bathroom facilities, available for single, double or family occupancy. Our rooms extend around the main Hotel building, all offering their own individual character. Guests are free to make use of our Wi-Fi broadband connection facility. We have two holiday houses available, Clare House & Hannah House, prices available on request.
We have two restaurant dining areas, known as the old court restaurant and the club room. They are both laid to a high standard, with their own individual features and character. All menus are available, so you are free to choose the lightest dish or the most generous. We source our produce as locally as possible, but do stretch further a field for certain aspects, such as Scottish beef which comes from the award winning Aubrey Allen butchers.
We have two traditional bars, both offering their own individual styles and both with open fires. The Lounge Bar being a quieter more relaxed environment, with round tables and a spiral staircase whilst the Public Bar has a more active atmosphere. The Bars are recognised for selling quality real ales, i.e.
Clare House is set in six acres and is comprised of ten/twelve ensuite bedrooms which accompany The Crown Hotel's accommodation. Situated on the edge of the village of Ickburgh, it is approximately 3/4 mile from the main hotel. If you would like to dine with us at The Crown or just enjoy a drink, we will happily taxi you to and from as you require, free of charge, so you don't have the worry of driving.

Pretty poor all round I'm afraid. Only three beers on tap, and they all tasted like pipe cleaner. One of our starters went missing and the overall quality of the food was pretty dire. Not nice to make a fuss at the time when someone else is paying, but when you have all the above and then the overall bill is added up incorrectly, just a poor show all round. I'd go to the chippy over the road if I were you! One star reflects the fact I wouldn't go back.
