Pleasant stay.

Looking forward to a nice break at a lovely location, the staff were fantastic and friendly, food was great. The drink prices were too high. The room was a let down, it was damp on entering, plenty of dust eveywhere, the noise and vibration from the road quite bad and noise from room floor above.

Our stay could not have been better!

We would like to thank Manager Luke and his team for making our weekend stay just perfect. No request was too much trouble. The room and bathroom had been nicely renovated. The kitchen provided a tasty and well-thought-out menu that was served efficiently. We will stay again if we are travelling through the area and would unreservedly recommend it to anyone.

Small Room

Surprised on the size of the room, TV was fixed to the wall with no pivot to watch while in bed. When visiting the outside was being repainted with the workman smoking outside the door and window.

Disappointment in Suffolk

We came for a one night stay to visit friends in the area. The hotel is beautiful and the car park large. we were quickly booked in and told how to find our room which was in a building beside the car park . The room was on the first floor and snug but clean. The problem was that it was the warmest night of the year with windows that opened on to the road and a duve of winter quality. We had a very disturbed night and would only use the hotel again if we could be assured of a room away from the traffic. The food was OK and the staff especially George were great. so 3 out of 10

Great place, terrible sleep.

Food, service, people, building, all really lovely, however.... I needed a place to sleep, and i got none whatsoever. Single glazed windows, meant i coukd hear cars outside and the adjacent street. I coukd hear every creek from the rooms next to me and above me, and there were alot of creeks! Lastly, it was really really hot... if i opened a window, the noises were enhanced. Im just asking for aircon or even a desk fan in the wardrobe to be available. Other than that, a lovely place, but the reason I booked it was to get a good night sleep, and regrettably, that didnt happen.

I booked a twin room but we were given a room with a 5 feet wide bed, which consisted of two bed bases and mattresses, each 2.5 feet wide, with one fitted bottom sheet and one large duvet. There was a bedside light one side but nothing the other side. The bed was comfortable, the room and bathroom both excellent. We did no complain until the following morning, but as the hotel seemed to be full, I suspect it would not have been possible to change rooms. We should have tried! It was a great shame as everything else, including breakfast, was excellent.

The historic building and the restaurant were very good. The accomodation was not good. Scruffy, not all that clean. We found toenail clippings in the bedroom, and broken and rusty facilities in the bathroom. Mostly it was very very noisy all night, with outside doors banging incessantly. Also you could here neighboring guests very clearlyThe staff were not really interested in the guests. They were very young, and out of their depth and gave you no confidence in that they would be able to deal with anything. I
