My partner and I just returned from a fantastic sunny weekend in Norwich. For a high quality, quintessentially British B&B within easy reach of the Broads and city centre you cannot do much better than the Black Swan Inn. The setting is idyllic, with lots of greenery and a quaint, English countryside feel. The patio is a fantastic spot to enjoy a couple of beers in the evening. We stayed two nights (Fri-Sun). Staff were extremely professional, courteous and efficient at all times and service in the bar and restaurant was very good. We had breakfast in the hotel in Sat and Sun morning. Coffee was excellent and I have to recommend the full English breakfast; we rarely have a full English but made an exception this weekend and it did not disappoint! Perfect portion sizes, great quality meat and cooked perfectly. We had dinner on Friday night and it was lovely. The duck bao buns were top notch. The room was very comfortable (the bed was particularly good) and the bathroom was well equipped; shower was powerful even on the eco setting. We had very warm weather so the staff did everything they could to keep the room cool, providing fans and opening our windows to let the cool evening air in before we retired for the evening. The inn was excellently located, near the Broads (10-15 min drive) where it is possible to hire day boats. This was the highlight of our trip and we cannot recommend it enough. The inn is a similar distance to the city centre. We returned from the city by taxi on Saturday night and it cost £16.70. If eating out, we highly recommend XO Kitchen.
