Ce qu'en disent des voyageurs

Le Dabbling Duck est une auberge de village pleine de caractère où les clients louent régulièrement l'équipe chaleureuse et l'ambiance accueillante. Certains soulignent toutefois la petitesse des chambres, le bruit occasionnel, une connexion Wi-Fi inégale et de légers problèmes de propreté ou la présence de mouches.

Beaucoup apprécient son cadre de village pittoresque et sa proximité pour les promenades, la côte et les domaines locaux. Les chambres varient, des suites spacieuses dans l'annexe aux chambres d'auberge plus modestes, dont certaines offrent une vue sur la place du village. L'accès peut impliquer des escaliers étroits et raides. La restauration est un point fort au restaurant, au bar et à la pizzeria du week-end, bien que certains aient trouvé les options du buffet du petit-déjeuner limitées. Attendez-vous à un séjour chaleureux et animé dans une auberge au caractère prononcé.

Excellent village pub with great staff and atmosphere that matches its surroundings and in keeping with good old inn values. The chef provides a great variety of flavors and quality dishes all served hot and on hot plates. The stairs are somewhat challenging for the elderly and mobility impaired. I didn’t realize when booking that I could have requested a ground floor room. My bad - should have read the small print. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Very friendly welcome, given a quick tour of the property, then shown to our room which was a lovely double with a view across the Green to the church. Small bottle of Homemade vodka was a nice touch and a pleasant nightcap. We had breakfast and an evening meal there, both excellent. There is also an outdoor wood fired pizza option at weekends, which also was excellent. We had a lovely stay. The village is pretty and you are only 20-30 mins from the coast and several other local attractions. We would highly recommend.

Good accomodation and excellent food. Building is an older one which has been extended - so some steep stairs to rooms.

Just spent 3 wonderful days at this gem in Norfolk countryside. So much attention to detail with meal taste and presentation, rooms tastefully equipped (along with complimentary nightcap!!) and most welcoming, friendly and efficient staff. Just wish we were here for summer with pizza nights on a Friday and Saturday held in a very tastefully rustic barn and beer garden. We can thoroughly recommend this wonderful quiet location!

This place is a top find. Welcome was first class, room was beautifully presented and lovely extra touches. Home made vodka and Molten Brown toiletries. We were booked in for dinner but after sitting in the garden and enjoying the early evening sun we opted for pizza in the barn. Delicious pizzas and good vibe. We didn’t have breakfast but went on a wonderful circular walk, followed by coffee in the bar before we made our way home.

Stayed for two nights. Free parking onsite was available. The room was up 10 narrow steep steps so we decided to leave the suitcases in the car. The room (5) overlooked the village green and church. The room was very small but had a little lobby area and a small bathroom. The Internet coverage was poor to our room. The bed was comfortable. There is a very nice looking restaurant which serves a variety of meals, mostly meat based. There was very little vegetarian choice. I didn’t feel I had to give warning as it’s not uncommon these days but maybe I will in the future. We were told on arrival that booking through Hotels.com meant breakfast wasn’t included but if the booking is made direct with the hotel it would be. Breakfast was a meagre buffet offering (£8.50), coffee is extra, or there was a more expensive menu option. There is a lovely tearoom opposite the hotel which opens at 9am and they have a wide range of breakfasts at a reasonable cost!

Chambres et espaces communs généralement propres, de nombreux clients saluant l'entretien général. Quelques-uns ont noté des problèmes tels qu'une odeur de moisi, une moquette tachée dans le couloir ou la nécessité d'un nettoyage plus approfondi dans certains détails des chambres côté jardin.

Excellent pub with excellent food, lovely rooms. Carpet in the hall up to room very dirty and cleaner said she could not scrub it, because of what it was made of. I thought a bit impractical if that was the case. The rest of the place was spotless. The food was excellent. Area and atmosphere great. I would definitely return.

Enjoyed the Dabbling Duck and the staff were lovely, but rushed off their feet Room 7 Garden Room was ok but too close to people sitting outside in the beer garden. Bedroom was lovely and reasonably clean but on closer inspection you can see it needs a deep clean of the doors & skirting boards/ floors. Would still stay again as it wasn’t a deal breaker and great food.

The Dabbling Duck exceeded our expectations in all respects. We were shown into our beautiful room in the house adjacent to the inn. The room was spacious and comfortable with a large sofa as well as king size bed. Our en suite bathroom was bigger than many hotel rooms we have stayed in and far more luxuriously appointed. Dinner in the inn was great - excellent service and good choices and breakfast also first class. The location was good for visiting nearby National Trust and English Heritage places as well as the North Norfolk coast.

It's a very busy pub so quite noisy. The food is good, but the room we had was very small and cluttered with a radiator (which could have been put away in the cupboard) and a large fan. The biggest problem was that there was no internet and the management attitude was - "Well it is North Norfolk!" Which is not really acceptable in 2025.

Second visit after a 2 year gap. We didn't think that the general standard was as good. Breakfast, help yourself choices, relied more on dried fruit. The 'main course' choices were just as good though. We stayed in the 'pigeon' room (No 7) which was right next to the children's play area and the army of very noisy kids (thanks to their parents) easily penetrated the double glazing and shutters of our room. Probably our fault for booking a stay in the school holidays. Made the most of using the DD as a base and 'DID' a lot of N. Norfolk. Evening meals as good as usual.

The location, atmosphere in the pub, staff friendliness and service was wonderful. Our room was a bit tight (family room only one left so booked so that we could each have a bed) with no room for baggage but realise to squeeze a double and single into a room in an old building would always be a challenge. Breakfast was delicious (although would love a muesli or granola that wasn't so sweet) when it came but a huge wait. Evening meal was delicious. Would definitely stay again though if passing through.

The hotel staff are really friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Room was small but there was a mixup at booking so on arrival we had to be allocated a different room as we had a dog. DD is super dog friendly and they are welcomed in all areas. Food is very good with plenty of variety, breakfast is hearty and all dietary requirements are catered for.
