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 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.......

We were attending a funeral at 2pm on the day of check-in - out three rooms were made available for us by noon to enable us to attend the funeral stress free. The hotel furnishings, rooms, bathrooms could do with an upgrade but were generally fine. The shower over the bath was very powerful. The staff were very polite and willing to help.

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.

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!

We wanted to get away for the night before New Year's Eve so, after some research, booked one night's stay at The White Hart. We were not disappointed. After checking in we were shown to our room (in the adjacent building) and given an explanation of where things were etc. The room had a 4 poster bed, which was extremely comfortable, and an ensuite wet room with shower. The room was very clean, well appointed and comfortable.
The main hotel building is a period property with a bar and...
