In the Suffolk countryside, between Bury St. Edmunds and Sudbury, this beautiful 15th-century building offers 4-star accommodations and a restaurant with 2 AA Rosettes for its fine food.

600 year old Inn, just the experience we were looking for. Lavenham is a wonderful little village full of English history.
The Great House Lavenham Hotel & Restaurant is a recently renovated guest house in Lavenham where guests can make the most of its garden and terrace.

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.

Lavenham as a town was beautiful, we loved the sense of History, but the house was very cold. We walked through the town in the evening, the Christmas lights and buildings were magical. We had tea in a small cafe opposite the Guildhall which was perfect. We had our evening meal at the Swan. We were the first guests and were privileged to be treated as though we were royalty. It was a magical experience in a truly wonderful setting. We went into an antique shop that was full of interesting items.
If I were to return, I would stay in a hotel like The Swan where my experience could be more predictable, rather than a self-catering holiday home.

The cottage is in a great location. We were very pleased with the facilities and the welcome hamper was a really nice touch. The owners have thought of everything to help make the stay as comfortable as possible. Lavenham is a pretty little village with good shops, tea-rooms and bars. It's also a great location for getting around to other parts of Suffolk. We will happily book this cottage again the next time we are in the area.
Lovely comfortable and homely accommodation in a quiet location just a few minutes walk from the center of Lavenham. 3 storey house which the children thought was really fun.
Very well equipped and the football table in the garage was a huge hit with the children as well as the dads! Plenty of on street parking available when we were there. We had 2 cars between us and managed to park both directly outside the property.
The hotel was very well located for travelling around the local area. Lavenham is a beautiful small historic town. The hotel has two restaurants which were well appointed. We enjoyed excellent breakfasts with plenty of choice. All the staff we met were very friendly and helpful at all times.
