A lovely stay!

The welcome was so friendly and the rooms were brilliant (we had two of the garden rooms - double for single use) and they were clean, spacious and well appointed.

Excellent hotel

What can I say.. Wayford Bridge inn is such a lovely place to stay. In a lovely quiet little place located just outside of Stalham.. its so homely. The staff were so helpful.. the breakfasts were lovely and hot ( not experienced that in other hotels for a long time) We didnt have our main meals there as we had other plans but they smelled delicious. We were able to check in before arrival and checkout in advance, all online to save any hanging around. The rooms were nice and clean and tidy and the staff could not help enough. One thing I would advise if you are going into town and not driving yourself is to book a cab on your arrival for whenever or what day you need it as they can get booked up early. We used Stripes Express cabs which were very good. We had an excellent experience here and look forward to revisiting again at as some stage in the future. A wonderful relaxing weekend. Thank you to the staff

Excellent menu for coeliacs

Another lovely stay at the Wayford Bridge Inn. Rooms are on the small side, but perfectly adequate for a short stay. Plenty of storage space and everything needed for your stay. We chose this hotel because of reviews regarding their gluten free menu and we have never been disappointed with the options available. The food is lovely and as a coeliac I always feel well looked after. There is not much to do in the surrounding area but the pub has a warm, welcoming feel and there are lovely views of the river. Can’t wait to return again.

Great place to stay

The hotel is good, food is amazing. The stool for the desk is broken so I had to work sitting on the bed, the tv has no signal unless you want to watch bbc1, tried retuning it but still nothing.

The location is excellent to use as a base as most tourist places to visit are a 10 minute drive away. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable. Food in the restaurant was excellent with a really good selection on the menu. The staff were very friendly and helpful and cannot fault their customer service they went out of their way to do whatever they could to make you feel welcome.

Perfect visit

We had a lovely stay in one of the garden rooms for 2 nights. All staff were really friendly. We had breakfast included which had a good selection and would recommend the porridge! We had two evening meals and they were fresh, tasty and filling. The atmosphere in the dining and lounge areas is relaxing and perfect for us. The location was ideal for us to visit further along the Norfolk coastline and the Broads. This isn’t the first time we have stayed at the Wayford Inn and we we hope to returning again.

The breakfast is so unimaginative.. and lacking for the price!! The staff don’t offer more tea or juice, and disappear it feels like. We’ve stayed many times as location is convenient but food lets this place down!

Pleasant and relsxing stay

Reception service checking in and out was efficient and quick. Staff were friendly and attentive. Room was basic but clean. Bed was comfortable and made for a good nights sleep. During stay there was a couple of big groups which meant that bar and food service had a delay but nothing too severe. Food was good and staff catered well with requests. Overall it was a pleasant weekend away. Would use the hotel again if back in the area.

Another great stay

Another good stay here. The check in was easy with a friendly welcome/ My room was delightful, warm with a cost bed a great walk in shower, although the shower head could have done with a clean and better power. Food here was great, an amazing choice, delicious and at a great price.
