Set in a perfect position overlooking golden sands, green spaces and the beautiful blue sea, The Golden Lion is Hunstanton’s largest building and is amongst the most impressive. It was built in 1846, and is a town icon with panoramic views.

In the summer, hotel guests can sit in the gardens and watch the people that pass by as they sip a glass of wine. In winter, the cosy bar is the perfect place to enjoy anything from a pint of beer to a freshly-brewed coffee. If you’re looking for convenience then you’ll be pleased to know that the hotel has a 24-hour reception and an internet connection, as well as on-site parking so that you can leave your car behind to take a stroll along the beach.

The Golden Lion has a lovely restaurant and a modern function room, perfect for special occasions. Though the Standard bedrooms are tasteful and spacious, complete with en-suites and tea and coffee-making facilities, the Premier rooms really stand out with sumptuous four-poster beds, large flat-screen TVs and full en-suite bathrooms. Whichever room you choose, you’re assured a relaxing stay on the Norfolk Coast, just ten minutes from the Sandringham Royal Estate and within easy reach of some of the county’s most interesting walking trails.
