This was our 2nd visit in under a year and we loved everything from the old pub feel, the wonderful comfortable room and the fantastic food. The staff are so friendly and make you feel right at home.

Little Walsingham is pretty, no doubt about it, but there is not a lot going on there apart from the RC and Anglican shrines. there's a tea shop, a shrine shop and two pubs and a farm shop, pus the gournds of the ruined abbey. It's fine as a base for the north norfolk coast and I spent most of my time in Cley and Blakeney.

Pleasant little village with an excellent farm shop and Tea shop “Digest and Rest” which made fabulous cakes. The Black Lion hotel serves excellent food and looks a very comfortable place to stay. The village has a remarkable history and is an exalted pilgrimage destination. Everyone very friendly.

A very interesting village with tudor houses, locals cared for their village as all frontages were adorned with beautiful potted colourful flowers.
Not for individuals with walking difficulty as uneven footpaths.
Plenty of parking but village does get very busy with tourists by 11:00.
I used the pub in the square which was more homely and less chaotic rather than the one next door to Elham house. This was my personnal choice.

Fantastic village with a great pub at its heart.
Fantastic village with a great pub at its heart. Would say the beating heart of the community. Its place on the map established many years ago as a place of worship and pilgrimage. Villiage life and religious heritage both go very much hand in hand.

The village is picturesque and the surroundings are lovely.
The village is picturesque and the surroundings are lovely. There is a b=narrow-gage railway line which is a joy - it goes to the seaside nearby at Wells Next the Sea.
The village is the site of the Anglian Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham and 1 mile away, of the R.C. Shrine with the Slipper Chapel and a splendid new church. There is also an Orthodox Church in the Village, which is usually open, and has interesting icons.
The village is consumed by the Shrines, so if you are not interested in these things, best to stay nearby and visit for the day. Not a good place to stay if you are not religious-minded! There is little else to see or do. A choice of tea-rooms and shops with church-related keep-sakes etc. but nowhere really to get a meal, especially I the evenings.

A warm welcome to a period property with bags of character. I was only passing through as a walking stop but Justin gave me a potted history of the area and the many sites of interest within which Little Walsingham is an epicentre. Bed was incredibly comfortable and I had everything I needed for a self-service breakfast. Nice touches such as a mini fridge for keeping fresh milk, an honesty bar for a nightcap, etc.
The house is full of history, the bedroom (Nelson suite) was an Tudor-style room, with the furniture being decades or centuries old.
The historical vibes in the whole place are amazing ,if you like history or architecture.
The hotel is ideally placed at a central location, across the street from the Abbey Grounds, so it allows for quick access to the village.
Parking (paid) is nearby, around 3' walk.
Location is perfect for exploring all the north Norfolk coastline. Peaceful and quiet village. Cottage was warm as good heating system, beautifully presented. All utensils and pots etc needed for cooking our meals. Generous area for parking. Plenty of towels and bedding. Books, games and hairdryer available if needed. Nespresso coffee pod machine. Would stay again!
Very friendly staff; very comfortable room; clean warm bathroom with large fluffy towels; limited but delicious evening menu; excellent breakfast. It’s a proper village pub, not a posh boutique hotel, with a great atmosphere and not too noisy for us to be able to sleep.
A perfect location for a Norfolk holiday. We will book again next year for our annual trip.
An absolute gem of a hotel. Professional and friendly welcome. Rooms are fantastic and decorated with sensitivity and quality. The restaurant was great. Superb food created by talented chef using fresh local produce and topped off by the talented mixologist at the bar.. Definitely one for the Norfolk shortlist. Thank You!
We were able to drop off our bags at the office before checking in. Reception staff were very helpful. Breakfast was good and location was excellent as it was centre of our destination. Will definitely come back again should we visit Little Walsingham in the future.
The staff were friendly and accomodating. The rooms were clean and nicely decorated and breakfast was lovely. As we stayed on a Tuesday night we had dinner at the sister venue The Black Lion Hotel where the food was delicious and the walk to and from was easy.
I stayed here several years ago and thus I knew that it is simple accommodation - a retreat for those on pilgrimage not a 5 star hotel. I was so pleasantly surprised to find out that it has been fully refurbished. My bedroom was very comfortable indeed..
The whole setting is very peaceful; basically it seems to be a place for religious retreats and meetings, that also welcomes other guests- so not exactly a "normal" hotel. Breakfast was good but only served between 8 am and 9 am.
Hotel and restaurant very good, staff very friendly and helpful. Food excellent and breakfast exceptional, cooked fresh to order and a lot of it with as much tea and coffee as needed. Staff very good and friendly.
The cleanliness. The friendly staff. Excellent breakfast and the uniqueness of the hotel. As for the price of the room. It seemed ridiculously cheap. I would thoroughly recommend
