Old coaching inn
Lovely old coaching inn. We had a large room.
The bed was a four poster. The mattress was extremely soft. Too soft for me. It felt a bit like a water bed.
We only ate breakfast at the Ram. The food was very nice but service a bit slow.
It's a lovely place. Full of character and history.

1 night stay
Stayed in room 1, bed was a little hard for me. Also radiator in bathroom was permanently on and couldn’t switch off!! Not ideal when the temperature outside is 25 degrees. Food was nice but it was an empty restaurant with 2 dinners at the time, which they put us both in the corner next to each other. Felt a bit intrusive.

Lovely charismatic inn with delicious grub!
Outstanding place. Very rustic, delicious food, great sevice and immaculate accommodation. The only downside is the noise of the traffic when you are staying in the roof rooms as there is little sound insulation. Take earplugs and you will sleep soundly!

Excellent
Our third stay at the Old Ram and, as before, we found the staff friendly and welcoming. The meals we had in the restaurant were delicious and the staff were attentive to our needs. The Old Ram is an ideal place to stay for a visit to Norwich and the surrounding area.
