Felbrigg Lodge Bed and Breakfast

Very friendly and relaxing weekend. The staff couldn’t do enough for us. If you are looking for peace and quiet this is the place.

Stayed here for 3 nights . Room is situated behind the office . It was dirty, lots of cobwebs and smelt damp. I had to move a chair and there were leaves and dirt underneath. We had a half opened bottle of water and when my husband took it to the owner he seemed surprised we wanted a fresh unopened one. The shower was dangerous and bits fell off it. It was up a step and slippy. The floor was dirty. I had to wipe it because it was so wet and the cloth was filthy. The fridge was dirty . The coffee tray never refreshed . There were constant cars up and down. The bathroom has a privacy film on the windows but there are gaps up the sides so people can see in. The curtains are hanging down and stained . The hot tub we used once . It isn’t private as people walk past all the time and it wasn’t clean. There was dirt in the bottom of it. We used the pool once and were told to shower before we went in. The shower was dirty and old. The pool had a film on the surface and again was dirty . Breakfast was ok. But your food is put out before you arrive . Not sure how long it was there. There are some cabins obviously now privately owned and it seemed very much them and us. The track down to the hotel is full of potholes and has to be taken carefully. We visited some years ago and stayed in Bramble suite which at the time was lovely but now the whole place just seems run down. It’s expensive for what it is and for someone who has auto immune and allergies I came home with a bad chest and can only think it was the dirty water in the hot tub or pool . The sauna didn’t work either. The tv was an old box and had to be coaxed into working .

This is our sixth visit to Felbrigg Lodge. We go back for the peace and quiet, the amazing food and the tranquil gardens. Everyone always makes us very welcome and we love to stay to further explore the wonderful Norfolk coast and countryside. This morning when I drew back the curtains at Felbrigg there was a baby deer and its mother a few yards from the bedroom window - very special! The birdsong was delightful too.
