A nice place to stay let down by the poor state of the access road and creaking floors. The conservatory is a lovely place to have meals and sit, and the living room chairs are unusually comfortable. Unfortunately the only wildlife we saw were rabbits and pigeons.The nearby town of Halesworth ( 10 minute drive) is well worth a few visits - lovely cafes ( especially Rhubarb and Rose), and the Italian style restaurant attached to the Angel Hotel is excellent.
