Nestled in the picturesque village of Ringstead, this charming 17th-century coaching inn has been welcoming guests for over 350 years. Just a stone’s throw from the scenic North Norfolk coast, it is perfectly positioned for exploring the region’s finest sights, with the best of Norfolk within easy reach.

Renowned for its flavour-packed seasonal cuisine and sun-trap garden, the inn’s ingredient-led menu celebrates local produce, much of which is sourced from the nearby coast. The history of the inn is woven into its character, with low black beams and gin-trap light fittings in the bar, contrasting beautifully with the soft pastels and airy ambience of the conservatory dining space.

There are ten uniquely designed rooms and suites, featuring glorious freestanding cast-iron baths and far-reaching countryside views. Guests looking for additional space and privacy can choose from three charming two-bedroom cottages. A stay at The Gin Trap Inn wouldn’t be complete without indulging in the chef’s signature breakfast – a heavenly combination of bagels topped with house-made 88 percent chocolate spread, roast bananas, and maple syrup.

Competition closes on 25 September 2025.
