The Pigs

What an amazing and unique experience. The whole setup is centred around you and the staff could not be more welcoming. We stayed one night in a Spa suite room. The Sauna and steam room were to die for and I think I lost my wife to the luxurious deep bath. The bed was so comfortable and the ambience of the room was perfect. The food was superb, especially the jam roly poly. I will definitely be back for that. On the evening we sat under the stars on our own private patio. The wood fire crackling away and smores in abundance. My wife also sends her thanks to Mimi for a wonderful, caring massage. To everyone at The Pigs a huge thank you. I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting something special and slightly different.

When you walk into The Pigs you are greeted with a genuinely warm welcome, regardless of who sees you first or who you are. The staff treat everyone equally, which is rare these days, they are friendly, efficient and make you feel as though nothing is too much trouble. This was our second stay at The Pigs, we were lucky enough to have 2 nights this time. Everything was perfect, the room was spotless, the steam room and sauna heated up quickly, the toiletries are divine, the towels are huge, robes are snuggly and fit both of us. The heating is easy to use and the room was toasty warm. We had 4 meals, all were of an exceptional standard with generous portions and again, excellent staff serving. The buttermilk chicken with pancakes for breakfast, the black pudding scotch egg, the 'marathon' (I seriously want the recipe for that!) were all stand out dishes, and I ate so many of the little black pudding sausage rolls on the first morning I couldn't move for hours, they are pure heaven. The beds are huge and comfy with a variety of pillows. We also had a couples massage (how lucky we are!) which was the icing on a very decadent and wonderful cake. Thankfully we have a night booked in February, the night after we get married so you could call it a honeymoink (instead of a honey..moo..n, sorry, I'll stop there). The whole experience was perfect, thanks to the team and please do pass on our compliments to the kitchen staff and cleaners who you don't see but who do a fantastic job, bravo all, can't wait for February.

We took advantage of a Norfolk Passport deal at The Pigs in September having celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary at the hotel in 2019. This time we were fortunate to have a spa suite with both sauna and steam room, plus a walk in shower and separate bath with TV. Our first stay was excellent, but this one was even better. The food was also on another level, especially the syrup sponge pudding served inside the tin. Service was first class throughout our stay.

The whole experience was totally amazing….from the moment we arrived to the moment we left….the staff and facilities absolutely five star…we had evening meal and breakfast in our room…..food was delicious and value for money….dressing gowns and slippers provided….my husband was impressed as he is 6’5 dressing gown actually fitted him….plenty of hot water and toiletries provided we definitely will be going for next year birthday treat….going to book room with hot tub next time thank you for a wonderful experience

I’ll start by saying this place is amazing. I booked the half day spa experience & an original spa room for my partners birthday as it was something completely different to most places. All the staff were friendly & very helpful right from the booking process to the stay itself. We started off with the spa experience, you get your own private area with Prosecco waiting. Hot tub, sauna, heated loungers & a wood burning stove, what more could you want for two hours of relaxing. It’s then time for treatments, both therapists were very professional & the room was very tranquil. It’s then into a separate room for the last 30mins to relax on the waterbeds where we were given a small sorbet & selection of teas. Then it’s down to the restaurant for a two course lunch. All I can say is the roast was amazing & the dessert table even better. We then checked into our room. I had prebooked the birthday package & a cocktail kit which my partner loved. The room itself is amazing, big wet room, huge bed, smart tv & Bluetooth speakers dotted about. You carry on through where you have your own sauna & a double bath with another tv & then into the courtyard where there is a fire pit for toasting marshmallows. We were both too full from lunch to want dinner so ordered some small bits from the menu to our room, again it was all delicious. Breakfast the next morning is served between 8 & 12 & you just turn up when you want so can even make the most of your room & have breakfast after checking out at 11. The bed was super comfy & we both had a great nights sleep. Breakfast again was fantastic, big selection of cereals, pastries, fruits & juices that you help yourself to & then a cooked breakfast from the menu. We did have some issues with ordering room service online & the WiFi for the smart tv kept dropping in & out but didn’t feel that was enough to take anything away from the amazing place & stay we had. It is expensive but well worth the money & 2hour 30 drive from Essex, never seen anywhere else offering the same facilities, with great food & level of service. We will definitely return at some point.

Nice enough experience but not special enough to want to return and didn't feel particularly relaxing or romantic. Room clean and spa facilities decent enough, food nice, staff were very welcoming and helpful. Pig themed ornaments etc slightly OTT making it tacky.
