The house is beautiful and our twin bedded room was very spacious. Attention to detail from the owner is very obvious as soon as you enter the house. Clive (owner) was very helpful and attentive at all times and very eager to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. He let us have our room before the 3pm... More

We've just returned from a wonderful 3-day trip to Norwich, and the highlight of the trip was staying at this fantastic B & B. The title 'B & B' doesn't do it justice however; at how many B & Bs is one given luxurious bathrobes, fresh fruit in the bedrooms, or Molten Brown products in the bathroom? The house itself... More

This is the second time we have stayed at Gothic House. Our son is at the university and its location is great as the city centre is a very short walk away and the university a short drive away. We stayed in theimmaculate bedroom at the top the house which has two comfortable 4ft double beds and is tastefully decorated.... More

I know the house very well, as when my brother and i were smaller my father actually owned it and ran his chemical business from it and the out buildings in the yard. You are going back to the sixties, the house holds many happy memories for me so i was fascinated to see it transformed into a bed and... More

Gothic House is an architectural delight in a quiet corner of an interesting city. Informative host Clive has anticipated his guests' every need, and breakfast features locally sourced treats like excellent yogurt and marmalade. Antique china adorns the walls, as do pictures of ocean liners: a subject on which Clive has published several works. The bed was very comfortable, with... More

We can fully endorse all the positive reviews on this site. Loved the quirky house with its quirky (in a nice way) cat. Location, conversation, bed, breakfast and decor all of the highest order. Perfect pub nearby (real ale, bar billiards) and any number of cinemas and restaurants just minutes from the door. An excellent, civilised B&B in the centre... More

Gothic House is perfectly located right in the city centre but surprisingly peaceful and quiet, and is ideal for exploring the delights of Norwich. The whole place has a deliciously quirky appeal with wonderful eclectic collections of antiques and knick-knacks, and Clive is a very helpful, attentive and charming host. We enjoyed staying in a lovely old-fashioned and tastefully decorated... More

A super house full of interesting facts and pieces, tucked away in an unassuming location. We stayed in the bright dual aspect king double room where we were very comfortable. Clive was a welcoming and attentive host and the breakfast was tasty and used good ingredients. The good quality robes provided in the rooms were a nice touch. Khmer the... More

Gothic House is a truly fantastic period property located in the heart of Norwich. The attention to detail is second to none and Clive is a lovely and attentive host for whom nothing is too much trouble. A simply wonderful B&B that we could not recommend highly enough! Sam and Kirsten
