Agellus, one of East Anglia's leading hospitality businesses, has announced the opening of Thornham Rooms at The Checkers, a unique, room-only place to stay on the spectacular North Norfolk coast. The Rooms are the latest evolution in the rich history of The Checkers Inn which has welcomed visitors to Thornham since the 16th century, most recently as a hotel and restaurant. Now, the eleven elegant, characterful bedrooms and comfortable downstairs sitting rooms become the base for unforgettable stays in stunning North Norfolk. Thornham Rooms can be a romantic hideaway, or a place for walkers and wildlife-spotters, a cozy retreat or the base for exciting exploration. The room-only approach means guests can discover their own favorite spots for breakfast, lunch and dinner, brunch, afternoon tea, or drinks. We are looking forward to telling guests about our favorite places - not least our Thornham pub, The Lifeboat Inn - encouraging them to support local food and drink businesses of all types. The bedrooms are contemporary and stylish with luxurious attention to detail; several are dog friendly. Guests can relax downstairs in a comfortable lounge and cozy areas where fires will be lit in winter.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.
