The hosts were wonderful, couldn't be more helpful. The room was compact but more than enough, and both clean and well equipped. Breakfast was perfect, and kept me going most of the day. Would definitely stay again.

Great location near Snetterton, friendly hosts and a good breakfast. No frills B&B experience.

The Elms exceeded our expectations. The room was lovely with the most comfortable bed , had an amazingly good nights sleep. Breakfast was perfect and hosts were so lovely, even offered to drive us to our nearby Wedding reception venue. Definitely recommend this B&B

The breakfasts at the Elms are always exceptional. The location is perfect for when I visit Snetteton.

Julia & Alan could not have been more welcoming and hospitable. I was travelling alone to attend a funeral and their friendliness and warmth really helped me. My single room was small but perfect - so cosy and it had everything I needed, including a little en suite shower room. Breakfasts were delicious (including vegetarian sausages which you still don't get everywhere!) There's a separate B&B entrance, guests have keys to their individual rooms and you come & go as you please. There's a pleasant lounge/dining room. I will be back in happier times!

Hosts were very approachable & friendly, location was good and a short walk to the pub for good food.

The location was perfect for snetterton circuit. Really enjoyed my scrambled egg on toast 😁 Julia and Alan were very friendly and made me feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble

The breakfast was great, sets one up for the day. Setting right for Snetterton. Superb hosts very kind. Situated in a very fine village. Welcoming tea and cake. Very comfortable room.

Great reception and delightful tea and homemade lemon drizzle cake. Room cosy and bed so comfortable. Good breakfast too. Nice hot shower too.

When arriving Julie and her husband greeted me at the door made a lovely fresh pot of coffee and showed me to my room. Made me feel very comfortable and the b&b is lovely and clean and very warming my room was perfect and very cozy and the breakfast was top class excellent food and brilliant company thank you :)
