Another stay at the 3 Pickerel and another brilliant time for us . Our room , number 3 , was lovely and so cosy . As usual, it was immaculate . The staff was very friendly and efficient considering how busy the place was ... And then, we had a very enjoyable dinner with a very nice apple tart ! Really our favourite place on our way to Norfolk.

I’ve stayed here many times, and the staff are always friendly. It’s in a lovely, scenic location, and the rooms are generally good. The only downside is the rooms can get very warm.

What a fabulous place to stay! Beautiful location by the river, lovely bar with great garden serving Pizzas on the Friday night from the garden container but a lovely restaurant too (we ate there and it was delicious food). The rooms are lovely and modern & very clean. Staff were friendly and helpful and all in all a fantastic and reasonable priced stay. We will definitely return if we are in the area again! 5*
