Summary: Well, what can I say.... We booked into The Dabbling Duck last minute, having had a problem with our original booking elsewhere. Right from the moment we arrived, the whole experience was exceptional. The kind lady at reception had pre-emptively shuffled some rooms so we have a suitable room for our little Boston Terrier, and the garden room we stayed in was lovely, a good size and very tastefully and appropriately decorated.
The very helpful and friendly staff even squeezed un into the fully booked restaurant both nights, showing a huge level of customer service which I find so rare in the UK these days.
What can I say about the restaurant... I've eaten in 1,000s of restaurants over many years of business travel, and I have to say that this is right up there amongst my favourites. The setting is lovely, the decor and atmosphere just right, and the food was exceptional. Both my wife any I agreed that on both nights, the soup was possibly the best we've ever tasted, and the mains were exceptional too.
I could ramble on for ages, however suffice to say, this little gem in Great Massingham is the best 'mistake' we've ever made. Well done to the management and staff which gave us such lovely memories.
(The village is also lovely, and a hub for exploring the glorious countryside nearby).

Summary: Good:
- Lovely, pretty little village
- Fresh milk to use for tea
- Nice furniture in room
- The lady who showed me your our room seemed pleasant
Not good:
- The other staff we encountered were unfriendly, particularly a lady who seemed very stressed and appeared to be in charge of the food in the restaurant and the guy running the pizza barn
- Our en-suite bathroom stank of damp or possibly a dirty drain smell from the slow draining sink. It was very unpleasant
- The duvet cover on the single bed was very hard like it had just come out of the packet
- The mattress on the single bed wasn’t so comfortable

Summary: Lovely friendly pub to stay at. The food was totally amazing and well worth another visit. The only let down was the lack of wifi and when I enquired about it I was told "well you're in Norfolk now love"
