Had a fabulous Sunday lunch at the George and Dragon whilst staying nearby with a group of friends. Had to do a review as was 5 star in every way. All the food we had was amazing , the service was on point and lovely ambience with a gorgeous Xmas feel. So great to have a meal out with all of us commenting on how good it was. Well done to the George and Dragon.

Food was very basic, with very little choice.The menu was handed to me with wet tomatoe stains on it.The table which had just been cleaned was sticky to the point my mobile stuck to the table top.The waitresses had stains down the front of her trousers, it was not a good experience at all.

Driving through this village we saw this pub and decided to stop. Good pub, good selection of beer (no alcohol beer selection a bit disappointing). Very nice garden to sit and have a leisurely beer. See

My wife and I visit Cley several times a year and have always enjoyed meals and drinks at the George! The new management have made a fantastic job of improving the garden and quality of the food. We still always eat and drink there every visit to our beloved Cley! However, although most of the staff are quite pleasant I do think they could up their game. The lady I believe to be the manager has never served me with a smile let alone try to make any conversation with me! I do realise that all the staff are busy but this is just basics when working in the hospitality industry. We will continue to enjoy our visits to the George but the staff should make their customers feel very welcome not just another punter!

Absolutely fantastic stay, can't recommend it enough. Faye, front of house, couldn't be more helpful. We will definitely be going back to stay. Rooms well appointed and clean. Five stars all the way!!

Very disappointing, lacked atmosphere, strange choice of background music. Table although sprayed and wiped prior to us being seated was sticky, the window sill next to the table was grubby and sticky. The knives we were given to eat our food with were so blunt they wouldn't even cut the salad leaves on my plate. The lunch menu looked OK, but rather expensive. Sandwich, chips and salad £17!!! The waitress was petting three or four dogs in the restaurant and then returned to the bar serving drinks and food to tables without washing her hands, yuk.

Just back from a great 5 night stay at this fabulous pub. This was our third visit (we first came over a decade ago) and it just seems to get better every time. Lovely room, kind attentive staff and good food, and that includes breakfast. We ate in four nights and no problems with my gluten free requirements. Lots to do for walkers and nature lovers in this part of Norfolk and beaches not too far by car. Try taking the coastal path and getting the bus back. Relax and enjoy. We promise to return.

Nice little hotel with a gastro pub below. The food in the pub was quite nice and the atmosphere in the pub is also good. The room was quite nice, however the bathroom is not for everyone. We had a room under the roof, and there was only a bathtub with a short hand-held shower head, probably as the bathtub was under the reclining roof. That means you can only shower sitting or kneeling down. Everything else was quite nice. And the personell was friendly enough.The location is amazing with great options for hikes directly from the hotel.The hotel and the area felt save.Parking is on a first come first serve basis, which means we got quite parked in when we wanted to leave. But we managed to maneuver our car out.Overall a very pleasant stay!

Really attractive pub, think whoever decorated it had a great time in the local antiques shops, look out for the fireplace shaped like a mediaeval helmet and the carved lectern! Ideal location for walks in Cley and Blakeney, absolutely perfect! Staff were friendly, food (well, breakfast) was good quality and well presented, everywhere was clean. Obviously dog-friendly too which was nice. My little room was charming, comfortably appointed with a nice attention to detail. Lovely views of the village and the marshes, could watch the sun set. Comfortable bed! Good quality toiletries in the bathroom and lots of hot water. Plenty of tea and coffee and biscuits laid on for hungry walkers! I only booked one night but liked it so much that I booked a second night! Would definitely stay here again.

The location of the hotel was very good. It’s a fine old building, updated tastefully. Our room was very comfortable. Excellent facilities. Very clean and tidy, yet homely and relaxing. All the staff were very helpful, warm and friendly. Nothing too much trouble. The food was of the highest quality throughout our stay. Service was prompt. The whole stay was very relaxing.
