This is a non-smoking, pet-free house. We regret that we cannot accept guests who wish to arrive after 10pm.

We have been hosting guests in our village for about five years, starting when we lived in Lime Tree House. Guest comments included: John and Sue were great hosts and served us an amazing breakfast to order, with a full English plus cereal, yoghurt and homemade fruit salad. Highly recommend a stay here : We were met in a very welcoming and friendly manner. Tea and coffee etc in room. Bed was exceptionally comfy. Slept so well. Beautiful village. Breakfast was amazing!!!! Couldnt fault it! : They were a lovely couple with great local knowledge. Maps and places of interest were also readily available. The breakfast was enough to feed an army. The hostess trolley to keep the food warm was a nice touch too! : By far one of the most comfortable places Ive stayed at! We hope you enjoy your stay in this lovely part of Suffolk. We recognise that some guests prefer privacy, and others like to chat. Please do ask us for any local information which will help you find your way around, and recommendations for local restaurants and attractions.
