There wasn’t really anything i liked about the property to be honest apart from the food which was okay.

Breakfast had a great choice from the menu and from the continental selection with fresh fruit and clearly labelled cereals.
The dinner choices were outstanding. Everything I ate was fresh and well balanced. The fish choices and desserts were a particular favourite.
The room was well decorated with a calming colour scheme and details considered such as the perfect curtain length.
The outside space included various places to sit in the shade or sun, on the patio surrounded by plants or on the lawn with a view of the countryside. The plants brought nature to the rooms and meant I could watch birds and insects from my window.
The rooms are away from the pub so piece can be found even on a busy night. Yet as it is such a short walk it won’t be a struggle for those who need step free access or little exertion.

The room was great with the most comfortable bed I think I have ever slept in. The hosts were wonderful and could do enough to help us. The facilities were great, with the basics of tea and coffee but also specialist teas and coffees as well, and biscuits. Breakfast was made to order and was perfect.
I can not speak any more highly enough of them, it was a perfect stay and I recommend people to go and stay there.

The village has one pub but otherwise does not have a lot to offer. However there are some very good country walks and it is idealy located for getting around Constable country and visiting Colchester and Lavenham.
The spa facilities weren't so good and I would have been disappointed if we had booked a 'Spa break'. Although I had a couple of treatments which were excellent. No robes for hotel guests, only those on a spa break wasn't very good either. Also reserved beds in the spa for those on a spa break meant that hotel guests had very few to go round.
The food was OK in the Sports Bar, but the other restaurants were very expensive.
Very nice location with lovely views. Hotel very spacious and clean. showers in peake spa are excellent.
The lakes restaurant was amazing. Lovely food and the service was splendid from the plentiful and youthful staff.
The sports bar has excellent TVs and a good fast food menu.
The junior suite we stayed in was a very nice size with a bath and lovely views.
a lovely hotel with fantastic friendly staff and chefs
Ideal countryside location & peaceful setting overlooking the golf course. Staff were very friendly and lunch served in the bar was excellent.
Dinner in the restaurant was very good, although the a la carte menu was limited & food could have been a bit warmer.
For a group of friends who are staying, the hotel can accommodate 3 adults in one room, with normal sized beds, making the stay excellent value for money.
The hotel itself was very nice, cleans and modern. some service staff in the main restaurant were very nice and provided a great service. Food in the main restaurant was really nice.
The hotel is clean. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. The sauna, steam room. jacuzzi and pool were perfect for some much needed relaxation.
The staff were very friendly on arrival, the hotel was nice, clean & comfortable. It had some good facilities. It was also nice to be in the countryside.
