In the Suffolk countryside, between Bury St. Edmunds and Sudbury, this beautiful 15th-century building offers 4-star accommodation and a restaurant with 2 AA Rosettes for its fine food.
Situated in Lavenham, in a historic building, 19 km from The Apex, The Great House Lavenham Hotel & Restaurant is a recently renovated guest house with a garden and terrace.
Around 4 miles from Sudbury, Rectory Manor offers provides elegant rooms with beautiful garden views. With a swimming pool and tennis court, it also offers free parking and Wi-Fi.
For us it was a trip into English history. The town is kept incredibly well in its original medieval form and it has charming relaxing and warm atmosphere. They're lovely little shop where you can find some unique items, and the little cafés are lovely. Christmas and New year is particularly good time for visiting as all beautiful decorations and lights are on display.

Lavenham is one of the most delightful and beautifully preserved towns in Suffolk.
Quintessentially English and with fabulous local craft shops and Tea shops.
The hospitality of the shop keepers was excellent.
The guided tours and visit to St Peter's and St.Paul's Church was very interesting.
Long Melford is just 4 miles away and there you can visit Melford Hall and Kentwell Hall.
Lavenham is a place I will return to.

Some exquisite buildings, many beautifully preserved and one (the Guildhall) in the care of National Trust. A good selection of independent shops and places to eat ranged from good pub grub to fine dining.
Good also as a centre for visiting other Suffolk landmarks - don't miss Kersey or Finchingfield for unspoiled picturesque villages.

Lovely, ancient town with a good range of shops and amenities etc. The hotel provided a town map, which was really useful and informative. I imagine that it is really busy in summer months, but in March, it was not, so easy to park (free!) and walk around etc......highly recommended location in Suffolk and with a Harry Potter house, used in one of the films!

Lovely olde worlde village which is easy to get around. Shame it was muddy for the 2 village walks each 2 1/2 miles and 5 mile routes.
Plenty of pub/restaurants, free parking and local shops.

Lovely historic town with fascinating & varied architecture. Many small independent shops & a good mix of different cafes & restaurants (the Indian was particularly good & about the only place open on a Sunday evening).

Georgina is a beautiful property situated in the well served historic village of Lavenham. It is spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed - all the thoughtful little extras (much appreciated when I realised I had forgotten the toothpaste) put this home on par with a 5 star boutique hotel. I wouldn't hesitate to book again or recommend for family and friends.
Booked hotel and Spa from my partners 50th birthday. Food was excellent, both dinner and breakfast! Everything was second to none, brilliant stay from start to finish. Will definitely be going back for another memorable break away…..
