The bedroom was clean, comfortable and spacious. The bathroom was clean and the shower was good. Breakfast started at 0800 so I didn't experience it as I needed to leave at that time. I did however receive a refund for the breakfasts I wasn't able to enjoy that I'd paid for.

Noise/voices from the bar/restaurant were quite loud as my room was directly above, but this ceased around 22:30 on both nights of my stay. There were also loud voices from smokers standing outside below my bedroom window. I was informed that breakfast started at 0800. I didn't recall this being advertised, so I didn't experience it as I needed to leave at that time.

Lovely atmosphere,staff very accommodating. comfy bed, amazing food definitely if you love your food stay here. Lovely views. I imagine it’s lovely in summer sitting on terrace as gets the sun. Fire in bar lounge lovely in winter. It’s very popular restaurant so very noisy but nice atmosphere. It’s quieter if u go early for lunch or later.

Room was cold. No where to put your toiletries in shower. Need a jug in room to fill kettle as does not fit under tap to fill. In Beech room it’s extremely noisy. You hear all music and talking from bar until well after it closes. Then again early when they are setting up and hoovering. It really echoes up through floor which is a real shame as we would’ve liked a lay in after being at work 8 days straight.

We liked the quiet location, well appointed room, comfy bed and pillows. Ability to park on site free was appreciated. The evening meal we had there was excellent and the serving staff were polite and helpful despite being busy.

When booking with booking.com we did not realise that cookies and bottled water were not available. They are available with other bookings apparently. The bathroom was very tiny compared to the one in the room we had when we last stayed at The Lodge. The waiting staff could have training on the wines available as we were given the wrong bottle although the price was adjusted for us as we had ordered a cheaper bottle. Also liqueurs were not known by the waiting staff and they had to go to find out information.

Lovely property, good location, very close to Wroxham, although car most likely needed to get around. Staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. The food is probably the best we’ve had anywhere, absolutely superb!! Almost worth the 3 1/2 drive just to eat! Room and bed/ bedding, very comfortable. Lovely atmosphere in bar area. Would definitely stay again.

Just have one small issue. Had to ask if someone could clean some areas of bathroom that had been missed. This was done straight away. This is a very old house, set amongst trees so there will always be cobwebs etc but just feel a little more care could be taken when cleaning around furniture and ceiling areas and communal stairway. Only a small gripe and would not stop us returning.

Lovely old rectory set well back from the road in pretty grounds. Restaurant was very good, staff were friendly and very efficient. Portions are huge so choose wisely if you have a small appetite.

The bathroom was very small and cramped with nowhere to put wash bags etc. A common problem with hotels. No full length mirror, again another common problem. The shelf above the sink made it difficult to wash your face in the basin. Small things but they could be put right with a little thought.

The room was decorated lovely but for the price, a bath would have been nice, even for a triple room. However, the shower was good. The grounds were stunning. The staff were very attentive and friendly. Nothing was too much. The food and drink choices were great too. Breakfast was included in the price too.

The rooms were warm, including the restaurant but luckily our room did have a fan to create some air flow. No iron in the room (maybe we should have asked reception). Music played until approx 11.20pm - it was quite loud and we could hear it over the tele, the bass from the speakers downstairs travelled up. We had gone back to our room about 11pm so we didn't have to hear it for too long. Minor to some but always good to know in reviews. I wouldn't let it put you off staying, it was still a great stay. Its just if you intend to have an 8pm bedtime then it may not be ideal. However, the space downstairs is very social.

Wonderful staff, lovely food, excellent portion size and comfortable, clean room. Will definitely return. It was a busy afternoon and evening in the restaurant with live music which added to the atmosphere! We really liked the fact that the place seemed well organised/managed and the staff were hard working and attentive.It was a pleasure to stay in an owner led chain of hotels where there was a sense responsibility and ownership from the top down. It seemed a happy place in which everyone had a strong work ethic with an emphasis on quality of service not just pure profit. This is quite rare to see these days., especially in any service industry. We realised one or two of the previous reviews had highlighted minor negative things but these issues had clearly been addressed. We don’t think the hotel have time to answer reviews . Instead they put their energy into resolving the issue ! We will definitely return as we liked the place, the great food and the room. Thank-you to the team for making our stay a happy one.

Nothing it was all lovely.

Our families had a super stay, booking all six rooms for after our wedding meal in the restaurant. All the rooms were different, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Good breakfast choices the following morning. The food quality for both the evening meal and breakfast was excellent - as you'd expect in a Colchester Inn venue. All the staff we had dealings with were wonderful with a special shout out to Ange who helped us organise things from from day one.

Nothing

The hotel was lovely, nice decor. Room a good size, large bed,lots of storage. Dining room lovely. Our meal was delicious, and generous portions. Best thing was the staff. Every single one we we encountered - cleaner, bar staff, waiting staff etc were so nice and welcoming.

I was quoted £110 on Trivago, then when I went to give card details , I was transferred to booking.com and the price had changed to £120 ?? Only slight quibble, bed too soft for my husband!

Very clean

Need plug sockets near mirror had to move everything so could dry my hair hairdryer kept stopping got soaked when washing hands in sink as tap needs adjusting also on booking.com it says bottle of wine included but was advised by hotel this is misleading happens a lot as my 60 th would have been a nice touch but the lady did bring me a piece of Brownie cake with a candle it which was nice gesture
