Beautifully kept, comfortable and spotless accommodation with convenient access to King’s Lynn and the surrounding area. Communication was excellent throughout, the breakfast was outstanding, and I would highly recommend The Old Bell to anyone visiting the area.
Excellent hosts, Jacqui and Greg. Certainly the nicest B+B we have stayed in for a long time, very comfortable and well equipped. Decor very neutral and modern. Certainly would not hesitate in returning. Thank you.
Room was lovely. Had everything you could need in and the staff were so helpful. Even before we came to stay they were helping me with taxis and any information I needed as we were staying there while going to a concert at Sandringham. My wife and I will definitely becoming back.

Great stay. Beautiful room very clean. Lovely friendly hosts and a great breakfast. Definitely would stay again.
Absolutely fabulous. The property is finished to a very high standard and has lovely little personalised touches. The owners are very friendly and professional and not at all intrusive. Breakfast was superb too. Overall, we had a lovely experience and am certain we will return.
This hotel is immaculate, the room, the bathroom and everywhere else. It is really spotless: from the beddings to the towels. The window shutters and carpet are of exceptional quality! Lots of choices of tea, coffee and biscuits in the room! The small fridge and a hairdryer look brand new as well. Brilliant! If you look for a cosy hotel in Norfolk, "The Old Bell" is a sure destination.
We were welcomed warmly by Greg who explained what we needed to know and showed to our room. The room is as nice as any room I have stayed in and I’ve stayed at the Mandarin Oriental!! The bedding was Luxurious and the bed wonderfully comfy. With tea and coffee making facilities in the room with fresh milk, I hope I have a reason to return. Absolutely 5 Stars
Greg and Jackie what more can we say! If we could give 10 we would. You are both such warm and welcoming hosts and we hope your B and B thrives. Your kniwledge if the area and places to visit were spot on. We will definitely be back again and will pass on your details to any friends we know thar are looking fir a super place to stay. Thank you once again and one last thing can you tell me where you buy all you toiletries their fragrances were gorgeous!!! Carry on with what you are doing it was just perfect
Julie and Neil.
Our room was very, very clean; linens crisp and nice, soft towels. The breakfast was displayed beautifully; fresh fruit, cheeses, meats, fresh bread, homemade pastries, cereals, yogurts, juices. Greg and Jackie so welcoming and friendly!
The property has been updated really tastefully and to a very high standard. Our room was spacious and perfectly appointed. The bed as super comfortable with crisp bed linen. Excellent continental breakfast and friendly hosts.
Lovely welcome & accommodating service from the owners. Room light & spacious. Great location, apart from woken at 7am one morning by delivery to shop opposite. Would recommend Mems in Kings Lynn for good value evening meal. Snettisham Beach great for Knot murmurations when the tide is mid-way in or out. (Be aware there are no toilets there, however.) Overall a great break😊
