The Bedingfeld Arms

A Perfect Day at The Bedingfeld Arms! What a truly wonderful experience! From the moment we arrived, The Bedingfeld Arms delivered exactly what we were hoping for—and more. Nestled in a charming location, it felt like a gentle escape into the countryside, with just the right mix of warmth and ease. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, well-prepared, and beautifully presented. We lingered over our meal, not wanting it to end! The rooms were just what we needed: cozy, comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed. It was so lovely to wake up refreshed and step out into such a peaceful setting. While some might wish for a slightly more “posh” or traditional pub feel—Tom did miss the classic old-world touches like dark walnut floors and the scent of oak smoke in the air—we both appreciated the light, airy ambiance and modern comfort. It’s clear The Bedingfeld Arms has found its own style, and it’s working beautifully. Altogether, it was a delightful, cheerful, and refreshing day, and we’re so glad we chose to spend it here. Thank you to everyone at The Bedingfeld Arms for making it so special—we can’t wait to return!

An overall very pleasant stay from booking via the phone to the welcome when we arrived all the way through to the great goodbye after breakfast was fantastic. Rooms are very nice and clean and spacious , the food and service in the restaurant was excellent. A couple of dishes had ran out by the time we ate at 8 o’clock but there was plenty of choice.. Wine less was very good as was the real ale.

Dreadful food, my calf's liver & bacon was burnt to a crisp on one side and the 'cook' tried to compensate his mistake by undercooking it on the reverse side which left blood oozing out of the liver - which is very dangerous. Never again at this ' restaurant' - stay away. The locals later informed us that the cook had been sacked from just about every local pub that he had been previously employed at in the Swaffham area, I could list them ....but I won't !!
