Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
a very old property with fascinating history which is not emphasised. when we visited only 1 staff member at dinner who did very well for being a relatively new start. unfortunately the restaurant wasn't open when we visited and only the bar menu was available no warning given about restaurant closure. Having said that the menu was adequate.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
If you’re driving, it’s an excellent quiet location for all routes. A taxi into Diss is £8-£10. However, the 25 minute walk to Diss is not recommended. The pavement is next to a very busy, narrow road. Neither is the walk to the 24-hour M&S food/ petrol station. There is no pavement beside a busy dual carriageway. Scole is lovely. Walking anywhere far is a nightmare. You need a car!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Nice setting and grand building. Not that clean. Room front door wouldn’t open more than quarter of the way as catching on carpet. No toilet roll so asked at reception desk and they managed to get 1 roll from their toilet. Lots of cob webs in the room, light in storage cupboard didn’t work so struggled to see our clothes etc after hz hung them Up. The shaving light didn’t work and the wall mounted shaving mirror was do lie I had to bend down for a shave.

Twin room was in an out building, the bed was comfy and the shower (in bath) was good. Let down by poor WiFi and a bathroom mirror only good for anyone 5ft 8 or less. If you have a fear of spiders this is not a good room. I counted 6 large spiders.
