It's relatively quiet (some traffic noise) with plenty of parking space, close to the river and a short drive from Stalham and a few more miles to Wroxham. The former has a Museum of the Broads and the opportunity for a boat trip while the latter is a busier place with boat trips, boat hire and more shops.

Large car park. There is a small table in the reception area with a bell to call for service, which we did. After several minutes a young lady came running into the area and told us to follow her, to check in. We were lead to the main bar area, however there was no record of our booking, which was a concern to say the least. I was asked what type of room we’d booked, when we booked it. I showed my confirmation number, eventually we were given a room. After conferring with a senior member of staff,It transpired that there had been a change in ownership in April time, so my booking was on ‘the old system’. The issue was resolved quickly, which was good, but still caused some angst. We were told there were issues with the WiFi… the signal and reception were non existent. The room was clean, but basic. The bathroom door stuck and would not shut. There was no hairdryer. I did manage to get a hairdryer in the end. I reported the door, it did not really bother us that much, but if it was pushed shut, it was impossibly to open. The food in the restaurant was ok. I had fish and chips, the fish had been put on top of the chips, making then soggy. The most disappointing thing was getting back to the hotel bar at about 22:40, after the wedding we had been to, seeing 3 people sitting there with virtually full pints, and being refused service. Even as residents. Overall it’s an ok place, the outside area is a bit scruffy. Seem to be quite short of staff.

Stayed for a couple of nights in a classic double room which was comfortable and clean,the only issue we had we were on the lower floor and you can hear noise from above when they walk across their floor. The food was good with reasonable servings. The wayford bridge inn we think is well situated for the broads but the inside could do with a little updating but we did enjoy our stay there.

On booking i made the mistake, i though the courtyard room was the new outside block, however it was not and the room i had was compact, with a poor shower facility. Small cunbicle, with a step in and the shower head was clogged and not very good, even though i twisted the handle to different shower heads. The staff were amazing, i was able to do my work in peace, with very good attention to my needs. The foods as usual was extremelt tasty and compliments to to the chef.

We have stayed at the Wayford Bridge Inn several times and have found the hotel excellent. The room this time was in one of the chalet lodges. It was brilliant, cosy and warm, despite the freezing conditions outside. The room had a lovely view over the fields and waterway,and was 15 yards from the main building. We had breakfast each day, again brilliant, and set us up for the day. We had evening meals too. The choice, quantity and the quality all excellent.We could certainly recommend the Wayford Bridge Inn to anyone.

The pub/restaurant staff were friendly and helpful, however, many were new and inexperienced leading to delays in service. We understand the problems recruiting staff in hospitality st the moment, otherwise we would have been tempted to provide a lower score. The rooms are sparkling clean and kept in excellent condition. Our only issue was the covid signs still everywhere in the inn. This is off putting and surely it is time they were removed?
