Pintail is in a beautiful location, right on the river Yare, only thing missing was a log burner, it was a cold weekend and we spent quite a bit on electric heating the living room, we didn’t heat the bedrooms, it has a heated towel rail which is great, and electric water heater. The White Heron pub is a very short walk away and does lovely food and there’s a bakery and cafe 2 mins away too. Overall a fabulous little place and would like to go back in Summer. Great for water bird spotting.
