    cozy room
    delicious breakfast
    noticeable noise

    The room was cozy, and I absolutely loved the delicious breakfast spread! With a lovely garden area to unwind and karaoke nights for entertainment, there was plenty to keep you relaxed. Just a heads up, the noise from the bar was a bit noticeable, so you might want to ask for a quieter room if you’re sensitive to sounds. 😊

    charming setting
    excellent breakfast
    cramped bedroom
    poor bathroom condition
    uninviting bar

    The setting was lovely, with charming local offerings and antique shops nearby. the bedroom was cramped, and the bathroom was in poor condition, with cracked tiles and a dirty shower screen. Surprisingly, the breakfast was excellent, featuring delicious homemade products that really stood out.

    historic buildings
    engaging vibe
    diverse dining
    cramped accommodations

    Historic building charm filled the atmosphere, with unique features that added character to the experience. The lively bar scene provided an engaging vibe, complemented by various dining options that catered to diverse tastes.

    The Standard Double Room felt cramped with poorly furnished details. the bed's instability raised concerns, while the wardrobe awkwardly sat in the bathroom. The noise from live entertainment below late into the night made it tough to catch some rest. The bathroom could use a thorough maintenance check, as the mold on the window and overall cleanliness weren't up to par. Getting settled in took way too long, waiting for staff who weren't familiar with room access added an unnecessary frustration to the check-in process. while it has potential, the room quality just doesn’t cut it against its competitors nearby.

    great value
    nice food

    Just a reliable pick for a break on long journey in Long Melford with great value for the money. The gammon, egg & chips was nice, but my carbonara was pretty bland. Just be cautious about the cleanliness of the glasses.

    Fun Vibes with Friendly Faces

    We had a delightful evening with friendly staff and a lively atmosphere. The idea of table phones was a hit! Enjoyed a generous Sunday roast with delicious gravy at a reasonable price. A bit noisy outside, but overall a memorable stay. Tip, try the roast for dinner!

    delicious breakfast
    cozy garden
    small bathroom

    I had a lovely stay with a delicious full English breakfast and a surprisingly pleasant evening meal in the bar. The garden area provided a cozy spot to relax, and the karaoke was a fun surprise one night. Just a heads up, the bathroom was a tad on the small side, but it didn’t ruin the experience at all! 😊

    cozy coffee shop
    friendly service
    nice garden
    dirty room

    Had an awesome weekend with my friends! We enjoyed the cozy coffee shop and had a blast exploring the nearby garden. The stay was well-organized, and the service was friendly. Just a heads up, it can get a bit noisy on weekend nights, but it was all part of the fun.

    We faced some issues with the room's cleanliness and a broken toilet seat, which was a bit disappointing. The staff could improve their attitude when handling these concerns.
