We stayed at No: 7 Pig Shed Motel on a trip up to see family in Norfolk and found it easy to locate and in an excellent position for moving around the county, it is close (4-5 minutes) to Swaffham and stands behind the George and Dragon …

We live close by in Castle Acre but booked into the Pig Shed (with our spaniel) because we had a day with no plumbing at home. Delighted to find a large, very clean and comfortable room with great facilities.  …

Wonderful!We loved our stay at Pig Let's (No2). The accommodation was spacious, very well kitted out and comfortable, spotlessly clean, extremely comfy bed and lovely pillows (bad pillows can ruin a stay!). The view was gorgeous, looking over corn fields with a large deck to sit out on to enjoy a glass or two! We also had a lovely lunch at The George and Dragon next to Pig Let's. Easy parking too. The only very slight downside was having to shower in the bath. Would totally recommend and will return!

Lovely little place! Clean, spacious with everything you need for a stay. Quiet, countryside views next to a great pub but only just off the main A47 so great to venture around and explore. Plenty coffee/tea supplied and a small fridge.|I’d recommend!
