This classy, refurbished village pub is the community hub, chock-full of locals and a popular destination for foodies. Lovely bedrooms too

In the heart of the village by the green and pond, this is a grand spot for walkers in need of sustenance. Settle in the smart bar or the light and airy dining room and enjoy a pint of something local, or one of their guest beers, while you ponder the menu. This is the best 'gastropub' for miles – meats are sourced from local farms and the fresh seafood comes straight from the Norfolk coast.

Sleep very happily in country-smart bedrooms (some chalet-style Garden Rooms with private terraces are set away from the road) with thoughtful touches and spoiling bathrooms sporting Bramley soaps and lotions. A breakfast with eggs from Clarence Court, bacon from Woodview Farm and sausages from Priors Hall will set you up for another lovely walk.

On warm days you can enjoy a bottle of rosé from the summer bar on the rear terrace with its flourishing planters and big umbrellas, and on big rugby match days you can join the throng of enthusiastic locals, a pint of Guinness in hand.
