Inns in Suffolk Coastal District

"This was our 5th visit to Ufford Park. We are always impressed. The rooms we choose have a balcony overlooking the golf course, are always clean and sufficient for what we need, with comfotable beds and a good shower. The balcony offers extra space during the warmer months. The breakfast offers a variety of food; cereals, rolls croissants, and a good english breakfast buffet. Hot drinks and juices are available. The lunch menu is good, and the diner menu has enough variety to have a different meal each night for several nights. The restaurant has comfortable seating, a good atmosphere, nice lighting and plenty of tables. The staff have always been polite, attentive and friendly. We've never used the golf course, the facilities have an indoor practice range, shop, as well as an 18 hole golf course with many bunkers and plenty of water. The spar facilities are also good. The swimming pool is a decent size, but can get crowded as it's popular, and the jacuzzi is fantastic. The gym is popular with members and visitors, and there are other spa/well-being services avaliable; beauty treatments, massage etc. We did use the thermal spa area once. It was good, but unfortunately at the time, some of it was out of order, and no partial refund was offered. Why only 4 stars? The bar/lounge area has changed over the years. We loved to sit on the many comfy sofas, spending hours relaxing with drinks and cakes in the lounge area. Now there are only 2 sofas left! Apart from that, its all good."

"As always I was very open minded about staying here, thought it might be overly pretentious but I was very pleasantly surprised, and thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The grounds are very well taken care of, even in winter, the hotel is spotlessly clean and so are the rooms, which are nice and spacious. The restaurant was quite plain but the food is certainly not, I had the roast chicken as I said a Sunday night, it was well presented, beautifully cooked, and so much of it, I am gluten free and they catered for, which was a really lovely surprise, and the best chocolate brownie I have ever tasted. Breakfast was equally as good. I would certainly recommend the hotel and would definitely stay there again, it was such a shame I didnt have time to visit the spa."

"Lovely place and facilities amazing"

"The staff were welcoming and accommodated a midnight check-in with no issues. The hotel is warm and inviting with modern amenities and well presented especially with origins from the 15th century!! Excellent friendly service and perfect location, right on a main shopping and dining thoroughfare also within a few mins walk to the train station. Highly recommend! "
