Nothing not to like

Unfortunately, my car GPS sent me to the wrong location. Whilst it was nearby, the location that I was sent to was a caravan park. Once I realised I was in the wrong place I went back out onto the main road and as I was driving around I then saw the entrance to the Grove. I also used the hotel swimming pool which was a small indoor swimming pool in a stand-alone building. It may or may not have been a coincidence, but just before I flew back home to Asia 24 hours after my swim, I started to develop an earache which turned into a very severe ear infection which took a number of weeks to clear up. I cannot prove that I got the infection through swimming in the swimming pool, but according to my specialist it was the most likely source of the infection. Nothing to do with the hotel but this is my second attempt at writing this review because my first attempt was rejected by Booking.com as my photograph of this attractive property showed cars parked outside the property and it was just possible to read the registration plates of the 3 vehicles, one of which was my own. Booking.com decided that that information was information that breached its posting rules. Accordingly, I will never ever again provide any photographs of any property that I stay in on Booking.com.

I arrived at the hotel quite late and although the restaurant was closed they managed to prepare some excellent sandwiches for me which I thoroughly enjoyed. The bar in the hotel I found to be particularly friendly and warm place with some interesting guests who you could talk with And a very pleasant view out over the grounds.

Breakfast wasn’t included in the room rate and was quite expensive, so we didn’t choose to eat at the hotel

The hotel was in a beautiful location surrounded by wooded areas. It was within walking distance of Cromer town centre, and the walk into town along the seafront was lovely. There were electric charge points on site which were free for residents, which was a very nice touch. Although we didn’t use them, there was a swimming pool and massage room available. The room was fairly small but included everything we needed for a one night stay.

Absolutely stunning with lovely walks and a really nice resturant

Room was a little bit small and noise from other rooms

The location is fantastic. Sundown is a really great addition.

Our room, superior double in a delightful garden setting, exceeded our expectations. We especially liked the friendly staff, rooms, comfortable bed, indoor heated swimming pool and the general ambience of the Grove.

If we were to be critical, which is hard as it is a fantastic place, maybe updating swimming pool changing areas.

Staff were lovely. Property was quirky with lots of places to sit and eat, drink and relax inside and out. Private swimming which was pre bookable. Food was fantastic and they used their own produce where possible. Very clean everywhere and a 10 minute walk to the beach/town.

Everything was perfect

We stayed in a room which was actually separate to the main building in the gardens which was perfect. Beautiful well kept gardens, plenty of parking. A nice walk into Cromer. We had breakfast one of the mornings which was excellent

The bed was to firm for us. I was disappointed that on checking out the staff member asked for the full amount again, I produced the receipt for paying for the room the day before so all that was left to pay was the meal, drink and breakfast we had. This soured an otherwise wonderful stay.

We were really pleased to have found the Grove, very nice and nice staff.

You have to book a timeslot to use the onsite swimming pool - this is great because your use is private, but lacks spontaneity and may need to book ahead as it gets booked up.

Lovely location a few minutes' walk outside Cromer. Easy to get to the cliff path and beach. Our Family Room (effectively a chalet in the grounds) was quiet, a short walk from the main building. We dined and had breakfast in the restaurant, which is excellent.

It’s a great shame dogs aren’t allowed in the main hotel or restaurant.

Very friendly staff and it’s a great idea you can book the pool out for private use.

We normally don’t pay as much as we did for accommodation but the place looked really good. The one thing that annoyed us was the shower didn’t work at all. I rang reception and an answer machine said they were too busy to get the phone. We were both undressed ready for a shower so getting dressed again a going to reception and there being a possibility they were to busy we decided to leave it. Spoke to a man at the end of the night in the bar and he said “we do have problems with that shower “ with not much of an apology. We were both very unhappy.

It was lovely. Room was excellent. Location was great and there was a lovely walk to Cromer.

The grounds are gorgeous, set around a wide range of accommodation from glamping tents to historic rooms. The indoor pool was lovely, and the kitchen gardens absolutely delightful. The food and drinks were wonderful. The staff were all really helpful. We stayed in one of the chalets which was spacious, airy and had a fantastic bathroom with disability/accessibility features built in.
