The Andel

I only stayed one night but was perfect for my needs.

I had to chose this property as a previously booked property cancelled our stay. We arrived on the hottest day of the year after a very long car journey and the guy on reception did hand us 2 bottles of luke warm water and then complained about how hot it was. We where shown to a very small room that had no windows but advised we could leave the door open at night, there was a fan blowing hot air around in the room. We left our bags in the room and went to the bar area to order some food, again the guy complained about the heat and how hot it was in the kitchen, he obviously did not want us to order food but after the long journey we did not want to travel to find food, the food when it arrived was quite nice. The bedding was clean but the bed was uncomfortable you could feel the springs digging into you as you lay there, the pillows where equally bad very lumpy. I had to clean the bath before I could shower as it had a lot of hairs in it, the general cleanliness was not great in the room as lots of cobwebs and a dead spider on the ceiling. At breakfast a different guy serving but again complaining about the heat, the breakfast was average. We went to the bar for a drink in the evening and the guy was telling everyone how hot it was whilst he worked so my husband did not feel he could order any food so we went elsewhere. Customer service was not great, you felt an inconvenience being there, yes it was hot if it was that bad they should have closed the kitchen.

Excellent family owned hotel with restaurant and bar. Plenty parking, WiFi and a fantastic outdoor setting/garden. Ground floor rooms, clean and very well maintained. Visited with family and really enjoyed staying here with kids. Only drawback is the network reception is poor but that's a normal thing in countryside areas. The hotel can get you a taxi. King's Lynn is 5 miles away.

Amazing little place. Very close to Watatunga Wildlife Reserve (which we were visiting) and also easy to get up to the coast quickly. Very friendly staff and excellent food, we had dinner as well as breakfast. Would definitely stay again.
