Hunstanton Restaurant Guide

Gin Trap Inn, The

I first came upon the17th century Gin Trap Inn when walking the 53 mile Peddar's Way one glorious spring. We were on our last leg, though perhaps that should read 'legs' for we had but one mile to cover before reaching the end, at Holme.

Neptune Inn & Restaurant, The

There is a certain commonality between New England where, as I write, the immediate future of politics in America is being given a sense of direction, and North Norfolk. This is well illustrated in Old Hunstanton where The Neptune offers English coastal tradition in large measure, with white clapboard walls, scale model boats, Lloyd Loom sofas and chairs, pictures of things coastal, all backed up with a roaring fire, fresh flowers, wooden polished floors and traditional food.

Restaurant at Rose & Crown

The north east corner of Norfolk yields wonderful surprises not least of which is pubs like The Rose and Crown, with their ancient form, their hints of smuggling and other mildly nefarious activity, and remoteness from the less pleasant aspects of everyday life.
