All the staff were polite and friendly, even though they were so busy with all 40 rooms booked with a wedding party. The room was small but very clean. The lasagne I had was extremely good. My husband had the crab, which he said was tasty but (as a fisherman) the smallest size of crab that could be landed. The only slightly awkward thing was lack of signage to know how to check in, which, it seems, was to be done at the bar.

A single night in a large and pleasant family room with breakfast included cost £114 for the three of us, which we thought very good value. The dinner on the evening of arrival was excellent, the breakfast the following morning less so (a different chef) but there was plenty of it to fill us up for the day ahead. Overall, highly recommended for its welcoming and courteous staff and value for money.

Another great stay at the Crown.
This is the second time we've stayed and we will be happy to return in the future. We were made to feel welcome by friendly staff on arrival and shown to our room. The room was bigger than expected, with plenty of seating for comfort, lots of storage and windows to ensure the room stayed cool. It was well laid out, to ensure spaciousness. Clean throughout, but a bit worn. Loads of options for a great breakfast, which is included in the price, again staff were really friendly and efficient. The Crown is central for visiting Thetford, the surrounding forest, the Arboretum, which is within walking distance and well worth a visit. The village is friendly and has a lovely chip shop and local store. Next time we visit we'll bring bikes as we also found out they have secure storage areas.

Have stayed here on several occasions. Its good value for money. Staff are very welcoming and warm. Rooms are a little old fashioned with lots of brown furniture. Many power points but only a few working. The beds are large and comfortable with crisp bedding and good pillows. Room was very hot when I stayed and the small fan was not enough to keep the room cool. Could not open window as this on street. Evening meal was ok but a pile of sliced up salad items in a big heap is not very appealing. The Cromer crab was so tiny placed on top. Breakfast is good with local products included on the menu.

I weeded the court yard whilst we were there. Thank you to the member of staff changed our room due to me having two dogs with us. All staff were very attentive and courteous. Recommend this place to anyone with dogs for eating and staying. Be back…..

Fabulous stay, quirky, with lovely staff and grounds. Room was clean, comfortable with a lovely bathroom. If you want something ultra modern, this isn’t for you. But if you appreciate a building with history, originality, great service, then you will love it.

As it was summertime, the room could have done with a fan. Our room, 21, had quite steep stairs to carry up our luggage for older people. Maybe prospective clients should be advised.

Good comfy room and amazing breakfast
Lovely comfy room, a double bed plus a single on the ground floor as I have walking disability. We also brought our dog, they spoilt her rotten at breakfast by coming along with a sausage for her, all cut up and in a bowl. Pub very friendly. Breakfast was amazing, my poached egg was lovely and cooked to perfection, the same for my husband’s scrambled egg with the cooked breakfast, top quality sausage and bacon. We only stayed one night but will definitely be back to stay as so comfortable and made to feel welcome by everyone.

Second time we have stayed and as before the staff were lovely, the accomodation is good and there is a car park. Breakfast very good - great choice of food. Great location for visiting the Weeting Steam rally - together with our Austins 10.

Lovely, sparkling pub/hotel with huge beer garden in the very picturesque Mundford. Staff are very friendly and even ran me to the train station. One tip though - at breakfast, avoid the scrambled eggs like the plague unless you fancy eating desigated foam!
