It's set in a beautiful part of the world and a really pleasant village. The staff were amazing - very friendly. The rooms were really clean indeed and freshened each day. You must try the Norfolk Adder cider if you like cider. It's very nice indeed from the draught. Food was fantastic. Freshly cooked and served on hot plates which ch is not something you get everywhere and mak s w difference. I will return for sure whenever I am in the area.

Honestly couldn't fault anything

The mill is like going home to us! We've been staying for 9 years now and we love it. We are welcomed like family, Matthew, Ben and the team will do anything for you and go out of their way to ensure you have a good stay. The rooms are spacious and clean and the beds are sooooo comfortable it's hard to get up, even for the delicious breakfast. The pub itself is a proper norfolk pub with good beer and friendly locals. The food is proper pub grub (the coleslaw is divine!) and there's always plenty of it, you'll never go hungry at the mill!

There's nothing we don't like! We travel all over the country on our motorbike and we never stay in the same place twice. The olde windmill is the exception to the rule, our 10th stay is already booked for August 😜

Very friendly and helpful staff, in a very rural inn in Norfolk, situated in the very tiny hamlet of Great Cressingham. I was allocated a spacious ground floor room (room 6) with an en-suite bathroom with a bathtub (with shower over). Everything was operational (apart from a light bulb over the tea/coffee making facilities). The general lighting in the room was good, and had plenty of comfortable seating. The breakfast (English Club Breakfast, among others) included in their B&B rate, was a bit sparse, but everything was served to your table, which was an unusual treat. Conversely, the bar/restaurant menus offered a good choice, but the quantities were far too large, and would deter me from eating there again, as I object to food waste and gluttony. Plenty of free parking to the front and rear, and better to use the rear parking if staying at the inn. The room and en-suite had very adequate heating. Overall, a good experience.

The carpet in room 6 was very marked, and needed a thorough clean or replacement. Some of the furnishings, like light shades, were shabby. The extractor fan in the bathroom was excessively noisy, but could be turned off. No fresh fruit was offered at breakfast, but if you asked for a banana, they did have some. The only fish offered at breakfast were kippers, but sadly no other fish options were offered. There was some evidence of black mould around the bath. The value was reasonable, but not great.

Hi my stay was brilliant food was excellent service was outstanding and the room was more than expected will definitely be going back. The staff are very good and made you feel like your home always there to help but at the same time not in your face just made your stay all about you if you want some were to stay this definitely some were to stay people who we spoke to say we have been coming here for 9 years and we don't normally stay at one place more than once plus we're already booking our next stay here if that not a good recommendation I don't know what is I give this place 5 stars ⭐

From the moment we arrived the staff were pleasant and helpful. The car parks are fantastic and so quiet set amongst the trees. The room was large and well set out plus very clean. When we went to the restaurant which was in a superb conservatory with a lovely outlook. If you like a lot of food this is the place for you, and i would highly recommend the windmill beef Hoagie which i struggled to eat it all (fantastic) The staff are all lovely and could not be more helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend this lovely very quiet restful place. 10/10

I wish we had found this place before

The Olde Windmill is a stunning oldie worldy pub, so many things to wonder their history. The food was excellent for all six days we were there. Varied menu and the lady went out of her way to get me some plain fish when I felt poory. The maids kept the rooms well stocked with beautiful soft towels, teas, coffees and very efficient cleaning. Bar staff and all employees friendly, helpful and happy. Well done Olde Windmill, 5* we will definately be back

Just one point. Although clean the carpet was terribly stained. This could give customers the wrong idea of the first impression of an excellent hotel.

We chose The Olde Windmill Inn as we love the olde worlde charm of historic places. This pub was very cosy and we sat by the open fire which was delightful. Staff were friendly and attentive and immediately made us feel very welcome. Great choice of drinks and an extensive food menu. Our food was so delicious and plentiful. Our room was a good size and had a very comfortable bed. We had our labrador with us and he too was very welcomed as the establishment is very Dog Friendly. Overall a really lovely overnight stay. We'd definitely stay here again if we're in the area again.

There was nothing not to like.

The room itself was really good overall-the bed in particular was so comfortable. The staff were very pleasant. A good selection of food on the in house menu and very very generous portion sizes-so best to ask if you need a smaller portion rather than waste food . We stayed at this Inn as it was featured in An Inspector Calls in the Saturday Mail newspaper and ideal as a treat for my husbands birthday- also the room was very quiet

A couple of the lights in the room needed new lightbulbs although there was plenty of lighting in the room overall-also the small portable 'radiator' didn't seem to work when the central heating wasn't on- and ? it needed a bit of a boost to warm the room in between times.

Stunning little inn full of character and cosy charm, super friendly locals and polite happy staff make this a perfect escape where you can take your four legged friend without feeling uncomfortable as so DOG FRIENDLY, a truly magical stay and warm memories made. Beds are super comfy and so peaceful that we spent a whole day sleeping and chilling out in a deep bubble bath x lovely forest walks X fantastic Whisky selection. Breakfast was great value and worth getting up for x The menu selection was great my fillet steak was perfect and all dishes were served hot and very well presented. All very civilised especially all the different dogs enjoying life with their humans x Hate to say it but would 100% recommend a stay here x Nothing was too much bother x I loved the black out curtains.

The toilet Roll 😯 only 1/2 ply ...would take my own next trip. Nothing not to like in my opinion

A Perfect Stay at The Olde Windmill Inn in Great Cressingham, Norfolk We enjoyed staying at The Olde Windmill Inn during a two-day trip to Norfolk for a local event. This charming historic Inn exceeded our expectations in every possible way. Firstly, the Inn's ambience is nothing short of enchanting. The place's historic character adds a unique and cosy feel you can't find in modern hotels. Every nook and corner tells a story, making our stay exciting and comfortable. The staff at The Olde Windmill Inn were superb. From the warm welcome at check-in to the attentive service throughout our stay, they ensured we had everything we needed and more. Their recommendations for local sights and eateries were spot-on, enhancing our overall experience. We were also deeply impressed by the local community. The people in Norfolk were incredibly welcoming, making us feel like part of the village rather than just visitors. This connection added a lovely personal touch to our trip. Given the delightful experience, if we find ourselves in Norfolk again, there is no question about where we will stay. The Olde Windmill Inn would undoubtedly be our first choice once more. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area who wants to enjoy a blend of historic charm and excellent service.

There wasn't anything we didn't like. Some might say the pub's location is a bit rural, but it suited our expectations and was only 20 minutes away from our outdoor event.
