“This inn, dating back to 1643, distinguishes itself with character and accessible amenities, including convenient parking. The excellent restaurant, offering generous portions and interesting French wines, requires booking for weekend evening meals. In my opinion, its location is well-suited for visits to UEA and Norwich city center, thanks to a bus stop just outside the door.”
