    Long Melford is definitely a place to stay and enjoy.

    Long Melford is definitely a place to stay and enjoy. We used it for a functional purpose as we were touring the area. National Trust property adjacent and a good gig street can occupy time just browsing.

    Long Milford is long!

    Long Milford is long! It’s a beautiful and striking place with a wonderful church and green at one end and a long engaging street which takes you to the other. Milford Hall sits near the church and is a National Trust site well worth a visit. Classic Suffolk architecture runs down the high street.

    We have visited Long Melford before a few years ago.

    We have visited Long Melford before a few years ago. It is a nice place to travel to. Some shops have closed but it is still interesting with its Pubs and Cafe's. Plenty of little villages and towns to explore while staying there. We were able to reach places of interest during that time. Not far from us in Essex and Hertfordshire with lovely changes of scenery. Very relaxing weekend.

    It is as lovely old village, 3 miles long with some vey interesting period buildings. Our highlight was the Abbey Church at the top of the hill; one of the top 3 churches in England and Melford Hall, a gem of a NT property. We sent hours exploring the hall, listening to the guides and search out the references to Beatrix Potter who was a frequent visitor. We also chose to stay there because of its proximity to Lavenham, one of the prettiest villages in England, a MUST visit village. Long Melford has a great range of hotels , pubs and bars, you can choose to spend what you like. We eat in the Cock and Bull where we obtained two main meals for £14.00, excellent value, extensive range and served piping hot.

    Long Melford is a lovely village with lots of interesting things to do and two big houses to visit. "Imagine" is an excellent gallery for pottery. The church is special and has unique brasses.

    All the staff were lovely. Being an old building I didn’t expect the room to be as big as it was. I have fibromyalgia so had to ask for an extra quilt, so I could lay on one and put the other over me, it was provided immediately. The meals were superb and so much nicer as I didn’t have to cook them myself. The hotel car park wasn’t very big but we normally managed to find a space on the road and parking was free which is rare these days.

    Amazing stay once again. Lovely little village with lots of places to eat. Accommodation is pure luxury with such attention to detail from the home made cake to the little ducks for the bath if you can find them. Just park your car up right outside your room and explore. Lovely hosts that look after you and cook you a fabulous breakfast. If your thinking about it don't just book it you won't be disappointed.

    The lodge is very comfortable and has everything you need. It's very relaxing to sit in the garden and spend time watching the sunsets. Long Melford is a lovely town with lots to see and do in the area. Kayaking near Sudbury, cycling on the disused railway and plenty of walks. Would definitely recommend this accommodation. The complimentary breakfast items were much appreciated. Thank you.

    Cosy, clean and comfortable with an incredible use of the main garden area! Bruce was so friendly and helpful but respected our privacy during our stay. We took our 6 month old puppy and he loved it. Not far from long Melford which has lovely pubs and restaurants but we had an Indian delivery and it was brilliant. Would definitely return in the future.

    Friendly staff and excellent meals although delivery problems curtailed some of the items on the menu. Breakfast was included and was comprehensive and enjoyable. Free parking at the rear was an added bonus which made life that much easier. There are a lot of cars parked up in Long Melford. Overall, a base for a good holiday in lovely West Suffolk.

    The location and accommodation was lovely. It was peaceful. Fresh milk in the fridge was great. Also a short walk (just over a mile) to Long Melford for a decent curry at the Onion Bhaji. If there were any issues Bruce was always on hand to help.
