We had an amazing stay at Rectory Manor Hotel. The interior was so cozy, warm and beautifully designed and the owner was incredibly welcoming and attentive. Frank shared so many fascinating stories and information about the hotel and the area and we would like to thank him once again for his warm hospitality and lovely conversation. Our room was on the upper attic floor and it had everything we needed. The attention given to even the smallest details was impressive and made our stay truly special. It was a wonderful night for me and my wife and we would happily come back again. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and charming stay.

Lavenham, exceptionally beautiful; both historically and architecturally very impressive. If late mediaeval and Tudor buildings appeal to you, Lavenham is the perfect place to stay . The Guildhall, owned and preserved by the National Trust is a must for a visit as is listening to the guide Tom. Tom has a forensic knowledge and great love for the building and its history, he also has a great sense of humour and he makes a visit to the Guildhall alive with fascinating detail. We enjoyed a fabulous stay at The Swan and will return there. Our only mistake was a visit to the Memsahib Restaurant on a Sunday evening; charming people but exceptionally greasy and tasteless food. The Swan has an excellent Spa which may well appeal to all ages and there are many independent shops to browse. There are also great walks to be enjoyed nearby and wealth of history to uncover.

The local shops and tea rooms were lovely and all within walking distance of the hotel, perfect location for us. The Greyhound served tapas which was very nice, we didn't go out in the garden but I think there is a seating area outside. The Swan is lovely, you can go to for a drink or a meal, there is a lovely garden too. There are several small independent shops with interesting and varied products. The Curiosity Corner shop is worth a visit and the Antique shop is quite big with lots of interesting items, again worth a visit. We found most of the shops interesting. The Market Square is very quaint and lovely to just sit and be with a cuppa!

Appreciate weather was exceptionally hot but staff not that attentive and difficult to find around the hotel. Lots of stairs to rooms so any mobility issues are not easy No offer of help with luggage The charge for dogs excessive Food was good but couldn’t eat on second night due to issue with kitchen , shame because we intended to eat each night. One staff member very rude at breakfast and refused to serve us because of the dogs. We checked out one day early and still charged for dogs for that third day. Could have at least not charged that amount as gesture of goodwill. In light of experience we have cancelled our stay in December.

Our accommodation was a main road, but a fairly quiet one, with free unrestricted parking. We managed to park outside the property each night. Suffolk is a beautiful county with very nice countryside and interesting villages. The cathedral at Bury St Edmonds was worth a visit.

For us it was a trip into English history.

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.

Louise has thought of everything. From high quality bed linen and towels to ensuring that there was milk in the fridge. Not all holiday rentals show such consideration. It was inviting, clean and very cute with all the little toy mice that we found around the cottage. There was nothing we wanted for. There was excellent guidance as to what we could do in Lavenham. Really the most beautiful quaint cottage perfectly positioned. Very high spec which made it feel such a wonderful weekend away.

The wonderful listed building, on the High Street, close to all facilities in Lavenham. The cottage was comfortable and well appointed. Great for self catering as everything was there that would be needed. There were fresh flowers on the table, and coffee, tea, milk and cookies as a welcome. The beds were really comfortable with super mattresses.

Loved the olde worlde charm of the cottage and its quirky uneven floors upstairs. Its position in Lavenham was fantastic. It felt like home from home and was very comfortable after a busy day or evening out. It was a great size, far bigger than we expected and overall we so enjoyed our stay.
