Hotel Review
The Swan, Loddon, Norfolk
WHAT WE LOVE...
The Swan has been a fixture of the attractive town of Loddon since the 18th century. Extensively renovated not long ago, it offers comfortable and characterful guest rooms, a homely bar area and a very pleasant restaurant offering excellent menus. It manages to be a down-to-earth pub popular with both locals and visitors alike, as well as offering fine restaurant offerings and boutique accommodation. Located on the main street, it is moments away from the River Chet, popular with tourists for its attractive scenery, rich wildlife and numerous boat moorings. The nearby surroundings offer wonderful walks, cycle routes, boating and birdwatching, and the village's fine buildings include a medieval church.
