Ye Old Buck Inn

I found this little gem whilst looking for somewhere to stay on the day of our trip to the Mid Norfolk Polar Express. It is the most beautiful village, and the pub is lovely, I instantly wished I’d booked two nights so we enjoy it for longer and explore the area. Check in and payment all done online so we literally picked up the keys at the bar and were shown to our room, it was lovely and warm and all made up ready with the sofa bed for the children. We need to take a moment to talk about our bed we have a king at home, and it’s a nice one with a good mattress so normally I expect to miss it but oh my days, the bed was HUGE and soooo comfortable! It felt like my husband was miles away and I had a whole bed to myself! The wet room bathroom was really nice, smelt amazing, and included shampoo and conditioner plus a body wash and stacks of fluffy towels. We were heading out for the PE early evening so timings didn’t work for dinner, but we had breakfast there which was as good as we expected. The kids loved carefully helping themselves to juice and cereal which was on the bar, there was stacks of hot toast and butter, we had an English breakfast which is undoubtedly the best I’ve ever eaten. We knew the locally sourced sausages and bacon were going to be good but the scrambled eggs I had were delicious! We are so grateful to everyone at the HB for our stay, it was really special, my husband particularly loved the winter beer, and lamented the fact that he did not have a wet dog sat by his feet as he rested in a chair by the fire. It is a perfect example of a traditional English pub, and we will definitely be back again.

We stayed two nights for a visit to The Polar Express. Arrived Friday night and had dinner in the restaurant really good quality food and the staff were wonderful. We were shown to our family room which was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Breakfast was good, although some fruit and child friendly cereal options would have been good. But what we had was very good quality again. Would definitely stay again

Nice staff, a friendly welcome and the drinks were good. Having read all the reviews I had high hopes for the food but was a little underwhelmed unfortunately… Perhaps I chose the wrong thing

Great food, good variety and nicely presented. The main dining room was a bit chilly, but the main bar and seating area seemed cosier with more atmosphere
