The Bedingfeld Arms

Just had a wonderful lunch there and the food was lovely and the welcome warm. Friendly and attentive staff and an inviting cosy atmosphere, thoroughly recommended. We have been before and it is usually busy, which speaks for itself. Today, we were the first in and it was nice to have it to ourselves. I had the salmon starter, followed by beef bourginon, mash and vegetables. It was superb. My wife skipped a starter and went straight for the sausage and mash, again superb. We then both had treacle tart for pudding. We will be back!

Lovely spacious clean room in beautiful character building. Sadly arrived too late to eat dinner but breakfast certainly made up for it. Andrew was a great host for breakfast and the food was really tasty and very good quality. Certainly hope to return and have dinner next time as menu looks great.

Booked a table for Sunday lunch at the Bedingfeld Arms after visiting Oxburgh Hall. Received a very warm welcome from the landlord upon arrival. The food was really lovely, portions plentiful and a good variety of veg. I had roast beef which was succulent and tender. There was a great atmosphere in the pub and the staff were very friendly. Would highly recommend.

Stayed the night in March 2024 for our wedding anniversary Whole experience was excellent. Room, Dinner & Breakfast was all of a high standard. Many thanks go to Andrew who played our wedding song at Breakfast. Will definitely book again, would highly recommend.

We had booked a table for a birthday dinner at 2:45. This was a birthday party for a table of six. Me and my partner had drove from Essex 2 1/2 hour drive. Another friend had come from Haywards Heath over three hour round-trip by train. We arrived at 2:50 and then waited at the bar for another four minutes until was seen. We was told that the chef had turned off the oven and we was too late for our table and was turned away. We was all shocked that the Oven could’ve only been off for no more than five minutes. We was told it takes too long for them to heat up. Very disappointing after a long travel time and simply turned away for being five minutes late.

Just popped in for a drink after visiting Oxborough Hall. What a lovely place! Great atmospheric music, friendly and attentive staff, warm and cosy feeling with an open fireplace. The food looked delicious, unfortunately we had already eaten otherwise this would have definitely been ordering food. Great beer and wine selection and my Sauvignon Blanc was delicious! We will definitely be back when we visit the Hall again, sooner rather than later hopefully.

Had Sunday roast, very nice. They had ran out of horseradish but otherwise couldn't fault it. The lemon posset for dessert was fantastic, good portion and not too sweet. Service was good. Fireplace smoking the bar out, which happened previous visit as well, might need sweeping!

Excellent food and charming staff but the service was very slow. We even gave desserts a miss as the wait would have been too long. The restaurant was slightly cold and the radiator wasn't on. It's a shame but we would come back and hopefully the service will be quicker. Maybe they were short of staff which obviously happens but an explanation would have been useful. We'll try again sometime as the food was great

We had a fantastic 3 night stay at The Bedlingfeld Arms over New Year. The room was lovely, the food delicious and service exceptional. We (my husband, dog and I ) were in Room 10 which is a mini suite at the top of the building - very comfortable! Tea/ coffee facilities, bath, walk in shower and little lounge area. We had dinner all 3 nights so got to try lots on the menu! Breakfast (extra) is must. There was an issue with the heating on the first night but this was quickly sorted out the next morning. The staff, especially Andrew and Emmie, bent over backwards to make sure we were happy including putting the TV on at 11.45pm to watch the New Year fireworks when all other residents had gone to bed! Oxburgh Hall (National Trust) is opposite including the ruins of an old church. A few miles away are the Gooderstone Water Gardens which are well worth a visit. We also met the owners (Stephen and Catkin) who told us of a few walks to go on which were lovely. We look forward to booking again to explore some more!
