Wonderful Stay in Constable Country

Our party enjoyed the comfort and coziness of this 500 yr old property. We loved walking in the parkland and sitting by the roaring fire. Everyone in our group was able to enjoy day trips and we were close to the family wedding we attended. The countryside is gorgeous and serene and the nights a quiet. Lovely place. Highly recommend.

A beautiful historical property

This place oozes with charm and character and being able to share such a piece of history with my family was greatly appreciated. The property is very comfortable and well equipped. The manager was very helpful in sorting out a problem with the internet. Lavenham is well worth a visit as is Kentwell Hall. This place does not disappoint.
