    cool temperature

    Staying in the Deluxe Suite was a great choice for our short getaway. The suite overlooked the river and provided a lovely setting to unwind after exploring the nearby Fenced Acre and Pingles Pit, both within a short distance. I particularly enjoyed the spacious layout of the suite, which included a cozy sitting room and a well-equipped bathroom. The overall environment was serene, making it a perfect spot to relax for a night.

    safe evening walks

    Consider bringing a torch for evening walks, as the nearby roads are poorly lit.

    The suites were warm and beautifully finished, with lovely views of the river right out the front door. Staff were cute, and the parking was ample (plus the security system was excellent!).

    lovely bathroom

    It was just a great fit for a getaway in Mepal, great for the money. The lovely bathroom with candles made it feel special. Make sure to bring a flashlight for the poorly lit road when you go out in the evening.

    peaceful atmosphere
    fully equipped kitchen
    limited relaxation spaces
    pricier dining
    noisy plumbing

    The location is wonderfully peaceful. The communal kitchen was a highlight, fully equipped for self-catering, and the complimentary treats in the room added a nice touch. It's important to note that the atmosphere leans more towards a restaurant with rooms than a traditional pub, which limited relaxation spaces. With only a few local dining options, keep in mind that the food can be on the pricier side if you're staying multiple nights.

    lovely family getaway with delicious freshly cooked breakfast

    The old building's character combined with beautiful river views. Breakfast was a standout. We savored delicious stewed fruits and full English.
