We had a lovely relaxing stay at the Beachwood Hotel. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. We stayed in one of the 2 garden rooms. These have a hot tub and sauna, and a massive bathroom. The food is amazing. Hats off the the chef. We will definitely be coming back here again. Highly recommended.

Another super Sunday lunch this time from Rachel front of house, and Lawrence at the stove, not forgetting Chris on the ivories! The usual courteous service, pleasant surroundings and great food - we're booked again for birthday celebrations in a couple of weeks - we love it. Keep it up, please. M&N

This hidden gem far exceeded expectations and my expectations were high. Had a lovely three night stay. Great room, lovely staff and the most amazing food! So good, booked a return visit which is coming up very soon. Easy walking distance to train station for Cromer, Holt and other great places. The owner has very high standards and this just exudes wherever you look. If you want luxury with amazing food, then this is the place. See you soon!
