Convenient overnight as hiking The Weavers' Way. Some quirks with the room, could not get towel rail to turn on and staff were unable to help. The food here is amazing, huge portions. Breakfast very good too.

Bags of Character

A quaint inn, ousing character, on the edge of the National Trust’s Blickling Estate in the Norfolk countryside. If you’re looking for a chain hotel with all the usual features - this is not it. I would happily stop here again.

Over-all everywhere is very clean and to a good standard. My only comment would be that the tile grout needs refreshing as some areas are black. Food is excellent and large servings. Staff are helpful and pleasant. This will have been my fifth stay and i have always had excellent service.

Our stay at The Bucks Arms

Just back from a lovely stay at The Bucks arms. We were visiting Blickling Hall and the local area and decided to base ourselves there. The staff were all excellent, very accommodating, polite, welcoming and friendly. We ate breakfast and dinner there too and the food was great quality and generous size (but too much for me lol). The room was a good size and was just right for what we and our canine companion needed. Would defiantly return if/when back that way.

Lovely 2 night stay.

My husband & myself have just spent 2 nights at The Buck Arms,very nice place,next door to Bickling Hall,unfortunately the weather wasn't that good so didn't walk around Bickling Hall. The staff were so friendly & couldn't do enough for you,always had a smile on their faces. The room was cosy,bed very comfortable,tea,coffee facilities offered in the room. The breakfast was fantastic,with so many choices to choose from. I throughly recommend an evening meal here,the food was one of the best we have had in ages,& so much to choose from. We will certainly be returning when we next visit North Norfolk.

The room we had (room 4) was quite basic. The TV was not connected to the internet, there was no electrical socket near to a mirror, the tables by the side of the bed were very small and quite unstable, in the evenings the room was cold(we stayed in October) but at night the heating came on which made the radiators noisy, there was only one pack of two biscuits and no decaffeinated tea and coffee. Parking was also quite difficult as the car park was very small. However the staff were extremely friendly and the food was amazing. We had the cooked breakfast and booked for Sunday lunch. The view over the National Trust property from upstairs was great. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to visit the NT property but if we stayed again we would.

Wonderful property, staff amazing. Only "gripes" are - four poster bed is a *little* small, it's the equivalent of a small double bed. Also, the shower doesn't have much power. It's an older, historical property, so do factor that into a stay. As highlighted above though, the staff were brilliant, and the (included) breakfast was sublime. We will be back! 👍

This was our third stay at the Buckinghamshire Arms and it won't be our last From the minute you check in all the staff are incredibly friendly and nothing is too much trouble. We were delighted with the standard of service on our first visit and it has never dropped below excellent No matter what time of year we have stayed the food has always been fantastic in quality and quantity, using fresh seasonal ingredients I can not praise enough everything about staying at the Buckinghamshire Arms

Staff very friendly and helpful. Good range of beers. Location for Blickling hall great, location in the area also good. Breakfast choice limited but food was brilliant . Only real downside was bedroom furniture was dated but this did not detract from the overall stay.
