Very comfortable and characterful - we had a great time!

9.0

The suite was very spacious, with a separate kitchen/dining area and a large bedroom. The whole place was also very clean and well-maintained. The breakfast was very good and the lady serving us very helpful and accommodating. The location was also very convenient.

The bedroom in particular was very warm, as there was no air-conditioning and we visited during the recent heatwave. We understand it is a listed building so no such facility can be installed. The entrance to the car park was exceptionally narrow.

Great two night stay in a characterful hotel.

10.0

This is an old building, full of character and a bit quirky. A refreshing change to the usual chain hotels. Everything was very clean and well kept, and the staff were very friendly. Possibly the best breakfast we have ever had in a hotel, everything freshly prepared with quality, local, products. A bonus was Lowestoft kippers on the menu. We would stay there again.

Nothing.
