Lovely hotel
Lovely hotel and a friendly welcome. Room spacious and well-appointed. Sadly I did not find out until I had booked, that the restaurant and bar weren't open. Would have been ideal if, after a day of exploring, you could return to the hotel for an evening meal and a drink.

Foodies delight!
A flying visit, arriving late and leaving early. Welcoming and comfortable, however the overwhelming standout and the reason that I will definitely return is the food - dinner and breakfast were both exceptional.

Lovely location and warm welcoming and exceptionally accommodating staff. Fine locally sourced food, well presented. A calm quiet and peaceful environment we felt privileged to enjoy. Despite their warnings about limited Wi-Fi we had a good 4G signal!

5***** Excellent
Absolutly fantastic! The room was large, clean and comfortable. The restaurant was as good as any we have ever stayed at and better than most. The food was indeed fine dining. Just the right amount, but the flavours and use of ingredients was exquisite. Staff were all very friendly, chatty and helpful and although not fine dining, the breakfast was a full full English. Would highly recommend the Saracen's Head, they deserve success.

A Gem of a Find
We loved it - the food was absolutely first class and the service and hospitality we received could not be faulted. The inn is situated in the heart of the Norfolk countryside and set in peaceful and calm surroundings. Far away from the "madding crowd" but still close enough to drive to the delightful villages and seaside towns that North Norfolk has to offer. We would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to return in the future. A gem of a find.
