Sunday Times Travel Magazine November 2008 - The World's 100 Best Hotels

"If you like your coffee accompanied by bird-song, this old Victorian farm house - opposite the RSPB reserve - is a right rural treat. Rooms in the main house are done in muted Farrow & Ball washes, while the Herb Garden rooms come with a side of thyme and lavender on the breeze. The Conservatory Restaurant is the main draw, through: devour a plate of plump Brancaster Oysters, followed by rhubarb and peach crumble, then doze in the landscaped garden, cheery swallows swooping overhead.

The best part of the Telegraph piece was the rave review Paddy gave the food:

"We soon discovered the chef certainly knows what he's doing,' she wrote. That gives Margaret and Ian special pleasure since the chef is their son Eric who honed his culinary skills travelling in Australia and the Pacific. "When he got back we realised we didn't need a Gordon Ramsay any more" says Margaret. "He teamed up with Mark Dobby our maitre d' and we let them have their head to run the restaurant together."

"The Potting Shed, is a self-contained wooden cottage with luxurious fixtures and private terrace."
"All the essentials for a baby (cot, bath, high chair, baby monitors) are provided, so you don't need to worry about forgetting anything."
"And nature lovers should visit the nearby RSPB reserve which features in BBC's Springwatch show - presenters Kate Humble and Bill Oddie stayed at Titchwell Manor while filming last year's series"

Time for Titchwell Lindsay Fulcher The Lady 28th July 09
"Next morning we discover that there is a charming south-facing patio with a small table, two chairs and a sun lounger outside the back of our room looking out across meadows - the perfect place to read, sunbathe or have breakfast."
"At Titchwell Manor we enjoy a drink in the stylish modern bar before dinner in the Conservatory Restaurant overlooking the garden. Locally sourced produce, such as lobster and oysters from Brancaster Staithe, Norfolk lamb and venison from the Houghton Hall estate, have pride of place on the menu. This is not to say that the scallops and halibut from the Isle of Skye and the Lincolnshire smoked eel should be ignored - all are equally delicious."
"Some months later I am sitting at home listening to Just a Minute on the radio when I hear a name I know. The programme is being recorded in Norfolk and Kit Hesketh Harvey has just said the team is spending the night at Titchwell Manor. Lucky things, I think, wistfully recalling my visit there."

First Lady of the Manor
Phil Walker meets Margaret Snaith, one of the pioneers of North Norfolk's booming hotel industry.
" When Margaret and her husband Ian brought the hotel in 1988 it was the only posh place to eat locally apart from Fishes in Burnham Market and the Lifeboat at Thornham, then a small restaurant with two pokey rooms above the bar. In less than twenty years the Snaiths became part of the revolution that changed the face of tourism along the coast."
Extensive and expensive makeover
"Now 12 extra rooms have been added around a specially-designed herb garden, doubling the hotel's accommodation and catering properly for the disabled - all designed and built by Darren Wright of Robbie Wright Builders in Heacham."
"Each new room is named after one of the herbs that grow outside the door, and evokes an essence of Norfolk: the wood, tiles and fabrics reflect homely, rustic tastes, pictures capture the coastline's shifting patterns of light".
"Thanks to Eric and Mark it's goodbye to plaice and chips and butterscotch sauce, hello seabass, oyster beignet and plum tart with sabayon. Margaret gets on spoiling the guests with the simple philosophy that each one should be treated as she'd want to be treated herself. And that means every guest, even the hamster that's been booked in along with its owner for a weekend."

Small is beautiful in Norfolk's Slow Lane Hotel Review Marcus Scriven The Evening Standard 25th April 07
" In the past decade, awards have been heaped on the coast's hotels."
"Now it's the turn of Titchwell Manor, anointed Best Small Hotel of the year."
"Evening at Titchwell is a soothing time. One of a series of high-ceilinged rooms - sisal matting, partly candlelit, solid tables of weathered pine, glass-topped rattan squares, leather sofas - has striking seascapes by local photographer Justin Bailey."
"The cooking is artful and magnificent. There is a balsamic syrup for the homemade bread, and a brace of amuses bouches."

Travel Romance Paul Croushton Sunday Times 8th February 09
"The walls at Titchwell are beginning to groan under the weight of plaques and plates - it has two AA rosettes for the restaurant, three AA stars for the hotel and a gold award from the Norfolk Tourist Board."
"The hotel is 10 minutes' walk from the RSPB reserve at Titchwell marsh, where bitterns, waders and marsh harriers can be seen from the hides."

Sunday Express Travel 8th December 08
" At Titchwell Manor we dine in the hotel's airy Conservatory Restaurant, where I wolf down Brancaster cockles followed by sea bass served with crab ravioli. Lavender from the hotel's walled garden flavours a delicious mousse."
