Lovely room massive bed and shower. Food was very good in the pub to definitely be back
Room was clean, slightly dated in the bathroom. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They kindly looked after our bags after we checked out while we headed into town.
Superb location. Cute cottage rooms facing the carpark. But hated being woke at 5:30 a.m. by the Biffa waste collection for 10 minutes... really !!!
Great place to go to to stay when visiting Bury St Edmunds. It's located in the old town. Rooms are cosy. Great food and great selection of beers at the bar. Friday night is music night.

First time visiting. Lovely place! Will definitely be back
Lovely hotel/pub. Food is great including breakfast and staff are lovely. Rooms are small but were adequate for my needs. Easy access to town and some lovely independent shops. Would definitely recommend.
Had a very nice lunch and drinks ,Service was very good the only thing that I was concerned about is the number steps up and down if you are an older person like myself you have to be very careful, but overall it was pleasant experience.
