“What strikes me most about this family-run B&B is its dedication to guests with dogs; they're welcome not just to stay, but to dine in the room, which is a real advantage. Beyond the dog-friendly perks, the location near Great Yarmouth Pier Beach makes it ideal for seaside jaunts, and the breakfast options are surprisingly diverse. I also noted the well-stocked refreshments in the rooms, a thoughtful touch that elevates the stay.”

a bit underwhelming, i guess

dog at breakfast door slamming

the room was quite clean, so that was acceptable.

The place wasn't exactly warm. I think i saw a small electric fire somewhere. dogs were wandering around during breakfast time, which i found a bit weird. also, there was some door slamming.
