About

The Gin Trap Inn

Trading from the same High Street address since 1668, this whitewashed coaching inn sits at the centre of Ringstead village, a few miles inland from the North Norfolk coast. The kitchen champions locally sourced produce, with menus drawing on the nearby coastline and surrounding farmland; a log fire warms the bar in cooler months and a walled garden opens up in summer. Guest rooms have been named in The Sunday Times 100 Best Places to Stay 2025.
