Great overnight stay
Our second visit here and although good last time this time much better, especially the staff. So friendly and helpful.
The best hotel we’ve stayed in for our Dog, Really appreciated that
Very warm welcome, both for us humans and especially the dog (complimentary bed/treats and dog bowl for her use during the stay). Dog welcomed throughout the hotel including main restaurant.
Meal at dinner was excellent as was breakfast.
Warm, spotlessly clean room, well appointed, close to the bar/restaurant and had a convenient small garden space for the dog's convenience.
We'll be coming back.
The staff are all incredible, especially Evie who is always smiling, always helpful and a credit to the hotel.
Dining is a very pleasurable experience, with food well prepared and delicious.
Great little place for a local stay. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Restaurant is nice with attentive service. Breakfast was fantastic with continental as well as hot food. Dog friendly throughout and so welcoming. Great if you’re a dog person. Good proximity to both Southwold and Aldeburgh. The room does get hot so need to keep windows open. Hope it doesn’t rain else you’d have to close the roof window for fresh air.

Short Break
The hotel was in an ideal location, room was ideal for a one night stay. Staff were friendly and efficient, only had breakfast which was plentiful with several options of choice. Used the Tesco clubcard which reduced the cost by £50.
Lovely property well converted from old cottages to modern rooms. Food lovely, staff very friendly. Only concern for us was that the room was so warm at night despite the use of a fan we struggled to get a full nights sleep. If you are a light sleeper I would suggest a room away from the road as passing traffic can be heard.
This dog friendly hotel was such a wonderful surprise from start to end. the room had a bed for the dog and treats. The staff was super friendly and our all birthday weekend was MAGICAL - Do not miss this one.
Rooms are in the main building & others on site.
Knew on booking, dogs welcome but very unhappy when there were 7 in the restaurant at breakfast. Also owners allowing dogs on the furniture.
Perhaps a more robust solution is required.
We shall not stay here again.
We enjoyed our stay - the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was ok but hard to cool down during the hot weather in spite of having a fan provided and the hot water was dangerously hot!
We had invited friends to join us for dinner on the first night and the food was excellent. Unfortunately because of dogs being allowed in the dining room our conversation was punctuated throughout by a barking dog who the owners couldn't control. It really spoiled our evening. At our final breakfast there were 5 dogs in the dining area. The staff were very aware of the situation and gave us a quiet area for our second dinner and volunteered the same for breakfast. However I think there should be a separate area for dog owners. We have a dog in our family so we're not anti dogs but we are very aware that some people are allergic to or are scared of them and think that should be taken into consideration in public areas.
