Lovely welcome & accommodating service from the owners. Room light & spacious. Great location, apart from woken at 7am one morning by delivery to shop opposite. Would recommend Mems in Kings Lynn for good value evening meal. Snettisham Beach great for Knot murmurations when the tide is mid-way in or out. (Be aware there are no toilets there, however.) Overall a great break😊

owner was there to greet us, very welcoming and friendly, took us to room. Room was quite small for a double deluxe but was comfortable and clean. smelt clean. bathroom was clean, but no loo brush. shower was on the small side but had toiletries there and nice smelling fluffy white towels. towel rail was vertical, so nowhere to hang towels. mini fridge in room was a nice touch, fresh milk provided. no full length mirror, just one above chest of drawers. nice selection of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits. clean cups, sparkling glasses and teaspoons, nice touch!

We loved staying at The Old Bell and will definitely be booking again for next year. The gorgeous room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Our hosts were amazing, super friendly and ready with recommendations for dining and must see spots. We arrived with barely any plans for the weekend and we ended up having an amazing time thanks to Greg and Jackie’s recommendations. 10/10.

Fabulous!!!!!
Fabulous place & owners Gregg & Jackie ….they have made a lovely job of this B&B…… 5* The thing that appealed to me most was having fresh milk provided in a small fridge for our morning tea….👌 It’s the little things …… The only thing they didn’t supply was some sunshine….

Cannot fault it. Our two night stay was very comfortable in every way. We were made to feel welcome and Greg even helped us to the room with our bags. Jackie was there at breakfast to serve drinks and toast and there was a good selection of help yourself continental breakfast items. Well placed to visit areas around it and Sandringham is only ten minutes away. We will definitely be back.

A friendly B&B.
The Old Bell is a great location for visiting Sandringham House & surrounding area. The accomodation is spotless & beautifully decorated. The bed was so comfortable, and the room quiet. The continental breakfast was great with many options, cereals, fresh bread, meats & fruit. The hosts were very friendly & helpful.

Wonderful hotel, hosts are very accommodating. Room very comfortable but would benefit from blackouts as the shutters did not shut out the sunlight at dawn. Continental breakfast was good - plenty of choice and fresh produce.
