"Very nice quaint cottage everything you need for a comfortable stay. Bed very comfy. The only downside for me was the very steep narrow stairs but were manageable. The owner was very nice and helpful lovely breakfast basket left in the kitchen with bacon eggs tomatoes bread butter and milk. A fire made in the grate just needed lighting. I had a very pleasant stay would definitely stay there again."

This hotel is for chillers only. Just relax and forget all your worries. Fantastic food, great staff, top class facility. BUT; dont have a 2nd floor room when it's the hottest weekend of the year. Not that you'll know when you book but it was just too hot. No air conditioning just a small noisy fan so took the edge off the chill factor! However, its was a fantastic base to explore west Suffolk. Do try it.......

Considering the age of the property, dating from 1456, the rooms were beautifully modernised whilst keeping the original features. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was excellent and I honestly can’t fault anything. The only negative was the heat but nothing anyone could do about that!!!

We battled the snow for a stay here and were so glad we did. The hotel is beautiful with all the wooden beams and real log fires and our bedroom was a really good size. Both dinner and breakfast were yummy and my husband even had a treatment in the spa which he enjoyed. My only criticism would be the lack of music. Other than the airman’s bar the whole building was in silence I think some light background music would have been nice and added some atmosphere. I understand a lot of your guests...

This clean shabby at the seems hotel is full of character and friendly staff.
Our breakfast was served by a very cheerful waiter and his assistant.
The leisure complex is delightful and I cannot praise enough the splendid pool assistant.Her smile and charm lit up the complex and after 14 years service surely deserves some kind of award.
However, can you please just smile if you work the reception desk, it costs nothing and makes the world of difference, even if through gritted teeth!

The room was absolutely delightful. The shower room & bathroom were spotlessly clean, with plenty of hot water.
The tea tray also had a couple of packets of biscuits. I liked the fact that I could switch the radiator off at night. The window also opened.
The bed was comfortable. I will return.
