    Small town, locals can be a bit rowdy.

    Small town, locals can be a bit rowdy. Pubs are okay-ish and other places to eat. Great location in the breks, planty of places to get outdoors but be aware of the noisy jets from RAF Lakenheath - your 8am alarm call!

    We booked our room in order to visit attractions in nearby towns. The local people whom we met were very friendly, helpful and entertaining. We only spent the evenings in Brandon itself but we found it a pleasant town with ample pubs and food outlets available. I would certainly recommend a stay in Brandon as a centre for exploring this lovely part of the country.

    There are many interesting period properties in Brandon.

    There are many interesting period properties in Brandon. The Little Ouse runs through the town and is a good place for canoeing, and river walks. There is a lock which allows bigger boats to pass the weir on to the lower river. Brandon is very close to Thetford forest and has a large country park with lots of bike and walking trails, as well as high climbing ropes for the more adventurous youngsters, Lakenheath air base is a stone's throw away and is a popular spot for aircraft enthusiasts. Brandon is a short drive from other historic places, such as Bury St Edmunds, Thetford and Ely.

    Brandon is a small town right on the edge of Thetford Forest, a perfect base from which to explore the forest & all it has to offer, from walking & cycling to fishing and boating. There aren't many shops in Brandon, but there is a first-rate cafe opposite The Bell pub which serves wonderful breakfasts and reasonably priced meals. It seemed to be popular with bikers but we didn't feel intimidated or unwelcome. There is an Aldi supermarket if you need to stock up on any supplies.

    The Old Fire Station is quaint and quirky, as described, with clever use of space to fit in all the facilities you need. The owner takes great pride in the property, which is cosy, comfortable, clean and tidy. Very attentive communication from the owners. The Old Fire Station is centrally located for days out with the children, such as Brandon Country Park, High Lodge or places further afield accessed via the local trainline. The bowling alley just opposite was a great way to spend a couple of hours. Would recommend this as a place to stay.

    The hotel was lovely and they even upgraded us on arrival to their best room! My wife and I had a lovely weekend off and were very pleased with our accommodations. The breakfast was great as well and the portions were substantial. The room was very clean and comfortable, and we appreciated the view over the river. It is only a 10 minute drive to Aqua Sana in Thetford Forest, (we spent our Saturday there) and we felt it was a much better value than other accommodations in the area. We would come back again!

    Not much, the hotel is very much in need of tlc, although it was clean, the windows in the dining were in need of a good clean. This hotel seems to be a workman's stay, our bed was on a slope and so we're the floors outside of the room, the floors were full of plaster from the shoes of the workmen, there was unfinished work to the outside of the property giving a scaff holding view for breakfast. I wouldn't say it was value for money for a midweek stay. We would not return.

    it is a very small hotel in the back of a pub built in the 1730’s. The rooms are immaculately clean and comfortable. There was a confusion in the rooms assignment. The owners, Mariann and Allan, were wonderful and came right away to rectify the situation, offered a refund for the first night and a free drink! After the fact, it was hilarious The owners are delightful, friendly and fun.

    The reception lady was very friendly. I was in the annex on the other side from the main hotel. The room was clean and I was able to park my car right next to the room (there's only one space next to the annex otherwise you need to use the car park close by).
