    The position of the hotel was great, in nearby more famous villages. The breakfast choices were lovely and delicious with great coffee.

    Not one thing.

    inviting gardens
    narrow passages

    A good garden retreat

    Breakfast featured local produce, nice dining experience.

    While the stairs added to the charm, the narrow passages may not be ideal with mobility issues.

    Breakfast was gorgeous and outstanding, appreciated the position.

    I had a fantastic experience here, everything was excellent, the location was stunning just off Long Melford, local attractions, and a beautiful garden, a good shower and lots to see in the area. The breakfast had a wide range of options, croissants, cereals, and fruit. The rooms were fantastic and immaculate with the huge bed.

    Couldn't recommend more for a brief retreat

    Charming atmosphere, attentive hosts, with a beautifully modernized bathroom that offered all necessary amenities including free parking and Wi-Fi, making it perfect for exploring the nearby area just 36 km from the airport.

    Can't think of anything.

    comfortable common areas
    narrow stairs
    low beams

    Comfortable common areas create a homely atmosphere.

    The narrow stairs and low beams were quite challenging. I found myself bumping my head a few times on the low beams, and the narrow passages felt a bit constricted. The lack of ample space was frustrating and took away from the overall experience.

    The warmth of the hosts. Breakfast was a good feast, especially the cooked options. The charming garden was a lovely spot to unwind.

    none (perhaps a little more signage).

    Lovely stay with awesome hosts

    Had such a nice time! Kay and Doug were super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a standout, especially the fresh homemade pastries. We even spotted some cool birds thanks to the binoculars in our room. Just wish the bathroom was a bit bigger, but everything else was perfect.

    good breakfast
    unique decor
    low beams
    traffic noise
    narrow staircases

    The stay featured superb attention to detail, particularly in the presentation of the breakfast with good homemade pastries and fresh fruit. The character of the Beautiful Suite, with its charming historic elements. Tall guests may need to navigate carefully due to some low beams, and there were moments when the ambiance could be disturbed by nearby traffic. The narrow staircases might also pose challenges for those with mobility issues.

    garden view

    Just an excellent fit for shopping in Glemsford with good value for price. The historical charm really made the stay enjoyable, especially the gorgeous garden view from the breakfast table. Consider bringing some cozy slippers as the floors can be a bit chilly.
