The King'S Head - A Georgian pub with stylish B&B rooms, locally sourced dining, and a garden bar

The King'S Head features a Georgian-era pub with a cozy bar and restaurant, blending contemporary and rustic styles with eclectic furnishings. Just four rooms are available-two at the front and two at the back-each furnished with large beds, en-suite bathrooms with aromatherapy toiletries, and flat-screen TVs. A continental breakfast is served at Byfords, 50 yards away, offering local smoked fish, eggs Benedict, and fresh pastries. The pub serves a menu of classic pub dishes and locally sourced seafood, beef, and lamb, alongside four rotating Norfolk ales on tap. A garden with a play area, willow maze, and climbing tower provides outdoor leisure space. The King'S Head is located on Holt High Street, opposite a former Barclays Bank building, with nearby parking at Budgens supermarket. Norwich Airport is a 30-minute drive away.
