There was everything we needed in our room and was the perfect location for our evening out in Bury st edmunds, walkable short distance. Breakfast was lovely. I will be staying here again. Lovely welcome from the owner.

Comfortable room which was a good size. It was clear that they had also thought through the finishing touches - a small coffee machine and also a good selection of tea/coffee/hot chocolate; good quality toiletries in the shower room. Breakfast was generous and delicious! Also, to note, there is a restaurant on site but you are close enough to the town centre to venture further afield if you so wish.

Loved the cosy feel of the room. Lovely restaurant/bar area. Food very good. Staff service really good. Only issue was the parking absolutely no parking at all. Although staff really helpful with finding a car park because of rain the walk was a little far. Was a shame as only slight negative.

On Balance
Very friendly and easy check-in although, this is in the bar so may not suit everyone. The room was spotlessly clean but a little cold (only one small radiator for a large room. The menu and real ale were both excellent. Unfortunately, the noise from outside when the pub emptied, very early morning deliveries and every room operating a coffee pod machine (like Nespresso) was quite remarkable! The real downside is that parking is non-existent (this is mentioned on the site) and I parked some 15 mins walk away which was quite safe.

Room was a good size & well appointed. Bar / resturant area was busy with good selection of drinks as yiu would expect with a micro brewery. Slightly tired decor, paintwork & wood floor could do with a refresh, but having said that we enjoyed our stay abd would book again.

Clean well maintained rooms, pub nice and clean. Staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast excellent and good choice, both continental and cooked. Nice plateful and sets you up for the day. Only niggle is parking but warned of this when booking. The pub has a good range of self brewed beers at a good price, also does a reasonable selection of evening meals, again a good plateful and reasonably priced.

Great, traditional English pub with decent selection of real ales. Room was comfortable, clean and tidy. Good choice at breakfast (though unusually for me, wasn't that keen of the taste of the black pudding). Would stay there again. Many thanks.
