Lovely stay, only negative would be the steep stairs, which previous people have mentioned. Meant to leave a note as we left to say that some of the bulbs in the ceiling lights in the lounge need replacing. Otherwise really enjoyed our time in Horning.

Was very clean everything you needed was provided. Lovely view from the lounge over the river moorings. Would recommend this place. Meal at the swan was also excellent. Walk up to the main road there is a bus to Wroxham at 5 to the hour. Colin & Pam

Nice place to stay with lovely view of river and boats. Great local walks. 3 people staying is a stretch, so once we arrived I did feel that it was marginally overpriced for what it was.All utensils etc available which was great. Perhaps some basics pike milk, bread, jam woukd be a nice touch as nothing is open in the village if you arrive late/on Sunday.
