The Kings Head Country Hotel - A dog-friendly boutique hotel with an AA Rosette restaurant and countryside views

Set on the Sandringham Estate, The Kings Head Country Hotel features twelve spacious rooms ranging from standard doubles to executive suites, all with en-suite bathrooms, some offering baths and separate showers. Executive rooms include super king-size beds, armchairs, and views of the Norfolk countryside. The AA Rosette restaurant serves traditional British cuisine, including Cromer crab and mussels, while the bar offers over 70 gins and a selection of local ales. Guests can relax in the landscaped garden with a play area or explore nearby Great Bircham Windmill (1 km) and Houghton Hall (4 km). The Kings Head Country Hotel is 60 km from Norwich International Airport.

Pros

The AA Rosette restaurant uses locally sourced produce, including seasonal seafood.

Executive rooms provide countryside views and spacious bathrooms with separate showers.

The bar features an extensive selection of over 70 gins and local cask ales.

Dog-friendly accommodations are available for £20 per night.

Cons

Some rooms lack walk-in showers, featuring only overhead showers or baths.

The hotel's rural location may require a car for accessing nearby attractions.

“I was particularly struck by the spacious, well-kept rooms and welcoming attitude toward dogs. The property stands out for its modern, clean interior and attentive staff, who seem genuinely committed to guest satisfaction. The outdoor patio with its large TV is a smart addition, and the breakfast, by all accounts, is excellent.”
