Sculthorpe Mill  

Convenience for Thursford and lovely location. Friendly staff

The peace and tranquility of the location. Good food and good beer. Friendly staff. Excellent breakfast.

Friendly welcome; good food; character of buillding and internal decoration.

Dessert menu could be improved with the addition of a 'lighter' option - E.G. lemon mousse or fresh fruit salad.

The beautiful setting and the friendly welcome. The room was large and comfortable with a view of the river. The evening meal was reasonably priced for the interesting menu and the quality of the cooking. The wine was also reasonably priced. The breakfast offered fresh fruit salad as well as cereal and the cooked breakfast was well up to the standard of everything else. We hope to have the opportunity to return in the future.

I found Sculthorpe Mill to be a historically interesting building with evidence of original features in the structure. Although the milling machinery has been long gone, shaft mountings and and other fixtures can be found in-bedded in the beams in the restaurant celling which must have been for the milling machinery. We also found the food in the restaurant to be excellent. The water that powered the mill still runs through the mill races below the bar area where presumably the mill wheels were once installed. The setting of Sculthorpe Mill on it's waterway in quite countryside is quite spectacular.

The room was spacious and clean. The tea and coffee tray had plenty to suite all tastes. There was a good variety for breakfast and well cooked.

A lovely get away in perfect surroundings. The river flowed directly beneath our window and we could hear it babbling as we drifted off to sleep. Within moments of arriving we had spotted a buzzard, heron, hare and muntjac as well as various wildfowl, ponies and a variety of garden birds - all from our bedroom windows. The food was lovely - great breakfast, the welcome friendly and we left relaxed and refreshed for a day exploring the beautiful North Norfolk coast.

The small, family-run atmosphere was very welcoming. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The room quality was high and the setting was good.

We already knew the Mill from previous visits for lunch or drinks and were well aware of its location and its charms. Staying there simply confirmed what a really nice place it is. Steve, mine host, and his wife and all the staff made the visit very easy and unfussy. We really liked our room and enjoyed, in comfort, the coldest night of the year (minus sixteen centigrade!) and witnessed the unprecedented sight of the millpond half frozen over – worth traveling quite far just for that! It's a lovely place. Nothing ritzy or glitzy about it, just solid good country quality. We didn't eat in as we had family nearby, but breakfasts were up to scratch and Greene King beers never disappoint either! Go there – you won't regret it. We'd have liked to pay less, but didn't really mind paying a little more.

Unique position - character of historic mill building - ambience - friendly and helpful staff - excellent breakfast - large convenient car park

Welcoming staff from moment of arrival. very helpful throughout stay and nothing too much trouble. Food very good . bedroom large and comfortable with lovely view of the mill stream . For the money excellent value . Would definitely stay again.

It was a genuine exampe of a North Norfolk country Inn. A very pleasant setting, very welcoming staff. It did not have ideas above it's station; the bar was full of local people, the food was honest, fresh and well prepared, the beer excellent. We didnt have a lot to do with them but that is how we like it. I'm certain if we had asked they would have been able to help. Good place, good people , does what it says on the label. The bed was comfortable, the shower hot and strong, The tv tiny! But so what? The setting glorious even on a November evening; water, river, weeping willows, quiet country. Thanks.

Room was a bit small but it was fine.No complaints.

Very attractive converted mill in a beautiful location. Staff very friendly and good food.

Smell of sewage outside the hotel. Noisy air conditioning unit outside the bedroom.
