Lovely quiet location - beautiful country pub

Beautiful quiet location, Plenty of space outside on the patio and also inside . Staff were friendly and welcoming. Parking was very good with an over fill carpark. Food was very good and breakfast was good value and very nice, If anything, the bedrooms were a little on the small side and rooms need a bit of freshening up. All in All we were very happy with our stay and would certainly go again,

Ok but could be better

The room was average, could do with sprucing up a little. The bathroom had at least 8 spiders in it on the ceiling so it can’t have been dusted for some time. We had food which was good but out of stock of a lot of the menu when we ate at 7:30pm. The pool table is expensive at £1 a go when it doesn’t always release the balls, has a slant on the table and the cushion is creased, not to mention the room is too small in places even for a short cue. We were told at check in that breakfast was at 7 but it actually started at 7:30am. We had prepaid for breakfast but found that not everything on the breakfast menu was included and there would be an addition surcharge for certain options. The place has character and the staff are friendly but it could have just been a little better.

Brilliant stay again at the Windmill. Dinner was superb. Room was quiet and well cared for. Like many places it could do with a spruce up but the quality of service and wonderful environment make up for any minor blemishes.

Food was amazing. We were staying for St Val’s night and thought it might affect our stay but it was a delicious dinner. Whenever I see a lot of options on a menu I’m concerned the quality might be mediocre. Not here. The quality of the cooking always seems to have been excellent whenever we’ve visited.

OK for the price

Staying for a weekend with our dog to visit family whilst we found the room comfortable it was rather dated and dreary with little natural light. Also there were at least 5 cats living at the pub and so hanging around the building such that we had to be very wary with our dog as he loves to chase them. The restaurant food and service was good.

Most of the staff were generally very friendly and efficient. Food was good but the menu could be better. It would be nice to have the option to swap chips for sweet potato fries or jacket potato. Externally the place looks a little tired and ready for a facelift. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our four night stay.

Staff are friendly and attentive, nothing is any trouble. Pub is lovely, didnt try the dinner but looked good and reasonable prices. Property itself, being old, is creaky and a little worn round the edges but it adds to the atmosphere and doesn't takeaway from the cleanliness and attention to detail - room 10, private access from outside, was a good size and spotless, plenty of tea/coffee/sugar n soap stuff, information pack extensive, bed very comfy, pillows a bit hard, blackout curtains were excellent. Breakfast serving was a bit slow but we weren't in any hurry, and you can pre book the night before if you are. No aircon but it is C17th so wasn't expected - we took our own fan. All-in-all we wouldn't hesitate to book again when we're back in the area.

The olde windmill inn, Great Cressingham

Staff very friendly and helpful. Food pleasant and building and the garden and play areas are both interesting. The building retains the charm of its origins but when it gets a bit of redecoration with making good of the noticeable wear and tear on woodwork, window frames and furniture it will be even more attractive for those staying there. The facilities and services, such as the regular provision of clean towels, very comfortable beds etc. were all of a high standard. The nights were peaceful despite the nearby road and overall our stay was very good value for the modest charges.

Must stay location

Stayed at this location for 4 nights. Never got to have a drink in all the bars, the \"pub\" section is large, so are the portions in the many eating areas. The food was excellent and as previously stated were generous in size. The rooms were large and comfortable and supplied with tea, coffee, hot chocolate and even a tea pot along with biscuits and mint sweets. The only fault was due to a leak on the shower and hand basin. Apparently craftsmen are few and far between everywhere. Will certainly use this location again. The staff were always polite, helpful and couldn't do enough to make our enjoyable

Full of character

Lovely country inn. Room (3) was very comfortable if bad reception for TV. The bars/restaurant areas were full of character and had a great atmosphere. Off the beaten track but only one mile from main road and six miles from Swaffham.

Upgraded to the one bedroom cottage, which I think was an old stable converted so it’s got lots of original features. Very friendly and accommodating staff.

Good accomodation and amenities

We all enjoyed our stay here, the rooms are a very good size, and the beds were very comfortable All the amenities you would expect were provided. The rooms were very quiet too. We also enjoyed a drink in the bar and we sampled the restaurant too, which we also enjoyed. The only thing we were surprised with, were the stain spots on the bedroom carpets, in both rooms. With beige carpets, spills do show, so some carpet spot cleaning should help the overall image. Having said that would stay again

Like going back to a more gentle time, the Olde Windmill was a beautifully quiet spot to spend a restful evening before the craziness of a family gathering the next day. Very easy to find and with a great range of food and drink. Nottingham was out final destination en route from Heathrow and we will stay here next time we head Nottinghamwards. Definitely inmy top 10 English pubs.

Mini break

Stay was for just one night. The hotel looked lovely from the outside with ample parking and the inside was just as good. We were warmly welcomed and although early there was no problem accessing our room. The room was spacious and comfortable and having a bath as well as a shower was a bonus. We had dinner in the evening with plenty of choice a great service and good value. Breakfast was also excellent.

The hotel enjoys an ideal location at the centre of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. The 12th century Thetford Priory is within walking distance.

Thetford Forest is just 8 km away, while Oxburgh Hall and the nearby Water Gardens are about 20 km from the hotel. Also worth a visit is Bressingham, with its Steam Museum and Garden.

Thetford bus and train stations are both within a 500-metre radius of the property. Norwich Airport is approximately 56 km from the hotel, while London Stansted Airport is some 88 km away and London Luton Airport is about 113 km away.

The property was originally a seminary, but under Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries it was sold as an inn in 1540 and renamed The Bell. The sense of history is enhanced by the fact that this accommodation retains much of its original character.

Tudor wall paintings were discovered from an old open gallery in 1938, when layers of wallpaper were stripped away. These paintings can now be seen preserved behind glass in one of the bedrooms.

Also famous as the home of the cast and crew of the television series 'Dad's Army', Thetford features throughout the series, providing backdrops to many of the programme's scenes. The hotel comprises a total of 46 guest rooms and is non-smoking throughout.

Facilities on offer include a lobby, a restaurant and Internet access. The comfortable en suite bedrooms each include a telephone, daily housekeeping, a television and tea and coffee making facilities.

A shower, a bathtub, a double or king-size bed, a radio, Internet access and an iron and ironing board all come as standard. The restaurant specialises in good simple English food.

The bar also serves delicious meals, together with traditional ales.
