Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort
Beautiful old country manor with original Features in many parts of the hotel. Location isn’t too far from the centre of Norwich to take a taxi. We always stay in the more modern rooms which are very comfortable. The spa is nice but hot tub and pool have been a little cold on our last two visits. ...

Barnham Broom Hotel, Golf & Spa
Well appointed suite but let down by the single glazed windows and ghe consequent downdraft which made the seating area too cold. Well maintained and good service in the restaurant - but menu choices limited.
