When out walking in Norfolk we popped into the Saracen's Head for a drink and because of the tempting menu stayed for lunch. It was delicious and well priced, the staff were so helpful and we would certainly return! We were pleasantly surprised as the last time we were there, a few years ago we didn't enjoy it at all...

Just back from a relaxing and enjoyable weekend at the Saracens Head. Very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, lovely room, spotlessly clean, warm and spacious. Breakfasts were great, and dinner very good to exceptional, especially the fish. Plenty of locally sourced high quality produce, with home made Terrine's and truly sensational hot / cold smoked salmon starter highlight of the weekend... More

We were very happy to arrive back at the Saracen's Head for a couple of nights. We had previously stayed for about five nights in August 2012. This is not a luxury 5 star hotel. It is an excellent restaurant with a few comfortable rooms. However, the location is superb - as they say - miles from anywhere and at... More

I think the locals who regularly patronised the Saracen's during Robert Dawson-Smith's era held their collective breath when the charismatic chef-proprietor hung up his apron for the last time a couple of years ago; that Reputation he'd forged over the years was a precious asset, and after a brief hiccup, I'm glad to absolutely confirm that it's back on track,...

We went for a Pre-Christmas family lunch today and had the most wonderful time- all 12 of us chose something different from the menu-the food was beautifully cooked and very tasty-'Great service, lovely atmosphere, beautiful place, yummy food and good value. We couldn't recommend the Saracens Head more - book today and go and try yourselves- you won't be disappointed.

Took our friend from London here Sat. evening. The place was full and happy. Service was very good and friendly. The choice of food has got better over time and the cooking is excellent. We all enjoyed our meal very much ( and not too expensive either!) Friend announced that he had been converted to our local beer ( Wherry).... More

I discovered this pub this summer however until now had not got round to visiting when open. We drove passed this Sunday and popped into for some lunch. The pub itself is wonderful and very suited to the colder months! with its open fires and the smell they give off! A rich and warm decor goes hand in hand with... More

The Saracens Head is just about in the middle of everything you want to see around North Norfolk, but tucked away on a quiet lane opposite the Wolterton estate, which makes for a lovely walk to set you up for lunch or dinner. There are 6 rooms - good sized doubles, and a family room, with nice ensuite bathrooms. Double... More

We had this hotel suggested to us by the owners of our B and B. They booked for us, and could not have made a better choice! From the moment we walked in, we knew the evening was going to be great. The welcome was really friendly, and the menu looked wonderful. Everyone in our part of the dining room... More

Four of us went to the Saracens Head today for Lunch. After being warmly greeted by the owner and ordering our drinks, we were shown to our table in the dining room close to a welcoming log fire. The starter of locally smoked trout and mackrel was delicious as was the roast pork main course. The fact that the restuarant... More
