With freeview tv, tea and coffee, kettle, biscuits, shower room and built in wardrobe , table and chair there was plenty of mod cons.... More

Although The Old Rectory is a very old building it has been very tastefully and sympathetically refurbished. Everything has a light ,modern and clean feel to it whilst still retaining a lot of character. We stayed for weekend as a group of seven friends occupying four rooms. We had no issues with any of the rooms and were completely satisfied... More

We have stayed in this B&B a few times. Previously our experience was good. The place is clean and the breakfast was very good. The rooms are spacious and it is well situated. This year (2012) however we had an extremely bad experience. We had booked well in advance and received an email confirming our booking. We also telephone the... More

I found this guesthouse when searching for two nights of single accommodation in Kings Lynn in order to attend a wedding; I had been looking for an alternative to the expensive hotels in the centre. It was certainly the right decision: the room was very comfortable and quiet, with high-quality linen and a very good ensuite bathroom. The hot breakfast... More

'Full marks all round' for this lovely B&B! Tastefully decorated, well situated, friendly service, good breakfast, reasonable rates - couldn't really ask for more! The Old Rectory would definately be our 'first port of call' should we return to Kings Lynn!

We stayed for two nights and would have been happy to stay for a week. The room we were given was up two flights of stairs but well worth the climb. It was clean, light and airy and had a lovely bathroom with separate shower and quality fittings. The towels were fluffy. The beds were very comfortable and we had... More

Really beautiful B&B with a great breakfast. The room was lovely and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Was much, much cheaper than most of the chain hotels in town and was in a much better location. Would highly recommend and intend to stay again. Room was very clean and comfortable and had a lovely large bed. Only downside... More

We use this B&B all the time for my mother and father in-law when they come over from Ireland to stay. We always get a warm welcome and the off road parking is excellent. The standard of room is excellent. I am a sales rep and have travelled the country and stayed in many hotels of a MUCH lesser standard... More

*I would just like to let you know that I thoroughly enjoyed my stay along with my mother and sister at The Old Rectory last weekend. I can certainly see why mum, once she discovered you, has felt no need to book elsewhere on her twice yearly trips to Kings Lynn. I was also very fortunate with the weather which... More
