“Recently refurbished yet traditional hotel overlooking Blakeney's small harbour. Spacious country-style rooms with wooden beams, large sash windows & many with sea views. Classic food is served in the restaurant. Plenty of in-house entertainment including an indoor pool. Ideal for families.”

Hotel review

With its location, overlooking a vast estuary leading to beautiful Blakeney Point, you might assume the panoramic view to be the star of the show at this traditional hotel abounding in old-fashioned country charm. Once inside however, a host of attractions vie for the limelight: superb food (hearty fare, exquisitely presented), cosy, light-filled bedrooms (many with estuary views, some with private garden/balcony) and a sense of space and tranquillity that makes it hard to believe there are as many as 64 rooms. First-rate staff and a fabulous indoor heated pool complete the picture at this rural retreat, ideally located for walkers.

Map & Location

Other reviews

Blakeney Hotel Norfolk, England

"A well-located seaside hotel with a loyal following of returning guests of all ages. Although a no-surprises, traditional place, it benefits from friendly, long-serving staff and a refurbishment that has freshened up public areas and rooms."

The cool hotel guide

"The main building and converted granary outhouse are made of red brick and flint, standing by a narrow channel with yachts and fishing boats. It’s a marvellously isolated spot for a stylish hotel, which has plenty of lounges with fireplaces."
