The Norfolk Mead Hotel

The best afternoon tea that I have ever had! A delicious mix of sandwiches, pastries, tea (or coffee) and cakes, along with great service (including refills of tea and a box to take home the excess cakes - finished this evening). Perfect afternoon out, in beautiful surroundings. Compliments and thanks to all.

Perfectection. I had a birthday party and all went faultlessly for the dinner and 5 couples staying overnight. Such polite attentive staff. A delicious meal and in a private room for 14 guests. The bedroom was immaculate the weather sadly didn’t let me sit on my balcony.

We had a very pleasant stay in this lovely hotel. It is good to see a hotel that is so well run. The staff were very professional and friendly and their aim was to make sure they could do everything to make your stay perfect. All of the food that came out of the kitchen was excellent from the morning scones, perfectly presented sandwiches and exceptional breakfasts and dinner. We stayed in Chanterell which is very spacious and comfortable with a good bathroom and wonderful shower. The bath was strange! It was a difficult design to manipulate but probably designed for newly weds! Thank you to everyone and compliments to the owners.

I went to a wedding at the Norfolk Mead on 25th May. We booked the Blackberry accomodation to stay over night, as we were apart of the wedding party and we have small children. The Norfolk Mead as a wedding venue was beautiful. The space is open and bright and the gardens are well looked after. The staff were all really attentive, professional and appeared relaxed despite being so busy. The catering at the wedding was really memorable. The selection was great and catered for everyone. The BBQ meats were so well marinated and cooked to perfection. The salads were really fresh. The accomodation was really comfortable and luxurious. I would highly recommend to anyone to book the Blackberry accomodation for a wedding day. It was a welcomed refuge for small kids when tired. Also, a major perk was being able to see the venue from the room, so we knew when the order of the day was moving. The next day we had breakfast with the newlyweds and family. The small breakfast buffet had pastries, juices, cereal and fruit. We ordered a cooked breakfast. All the food was delightful and ended our whole visit on a high.

We had our wedding here 2 weeks ago today. The venue was perfect. Dani and Frankie both always on hand if needed. The staff were always polite, helpful and hardworking. The food was impeccable, all came out hot. Rooms very clean and comfortable. Looking forward to coming back. It’s now our special place.

3rd time we’ve stayed here and still a wonderful experience. Beautiful accommodation set in beautiful grounds close to the broads. Wake up to a delightful breakfast menu accompanied with pastries and a selection of yummy treats. If you like a little sport then would recommend paddle boarding or kayaking along the river if lucky enough to find a sunny day or head out to the broads. Norfolk town is a lovely town to visit. Return in the evening to enjoy a dining experience. Friendly staff with a great attention to detail.

We booked The Norfolk Mead Hotel for a family birthday. We were given a private room that overlooked the lake and grounds. The hotel itself is beautifully kept and has plenty of 'olde worlde' charm. The grounds were immaculate, lots of trees, swathes of grass and a short walk takes you to the river where ducks swim idly. The staff could not have been more helpful, the epitome of professionalism, every one of them. Immaculate service, so courteous and always ready with a smile. The food was way beyond anything we had expected, sumptuous roast dinners and luscious desserts all to the highest standard of quality and presentation. This is the perfect place for any event.

Lovely Hotel, excellent Food and wonderful Staff. We stayed here on 15th May 2024. We had a lovely relaxing massage session, Staff were very friendly, pleasant and knowledgeable, afterwards we relaxed in the beautifully decorated Bar. Later in the Day we enjoyed some fabulous food in their beautiful Restaurant again the Staff looked after us very well. Our room was lovely and the Bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately it was raining hard so we didn't get to explore the Grounds, but they looked very nice. I highly recommend this place.

Me and my partner attended for a wedding and booked a nights stay too. We can't recommend this venue enough for both a wedding and a nice night away stay. The day ran seamlessly as a guest, I have allergies and they were efficiently taken care of with no issues at all (during the main meal and during the evening canapes offering me a full allergen free plate). The hotel bedrooms were very spacious, the bed extra comfy and the facilities overall 10/10. We joined the wedding party for breakfast in the morning, which was included in the room stay and the staff & food were brilliant. Really recommend staying here and even hosting an event. We will likely return sometime in the future once the spa has opened for a night away.
