Location was fab, but we only spent one night and arrived in the dark because of traffic and poor planning, so we didn't get to appreciate the experience. We didn't meet the team, but our communication with them over the booking.com app and phone was easy.

The views from the conservatory where we had breakfast were stunning and quite compensated for the location on the edge of town. Anne our host was very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was generous with an array of fresh fruit as well as a cooked breakfast and croissants.

Beautiful property and the attic conversion that I had as my room was huge, with lots of windows which meant that the room was full of warm sunshine in the morning.
The attic conversion has been completed very well, with good attention to detail and the room has been decorated tastefully.
Altogether a very nice place to stay.

As we came late Saturday and left for a wedding on Sunday morning all the local shops and boutiques were closed on a Sunday. Roy's was quite nice to go around.
The lido would be nice to visit in warmer weather.

Beccles for me is perfect.
Beccles for me is perfect. Its a friendly village where people say good morning/hello to you as they walk past. You drink/eat in pubs not bars, the staff remember you and there is a genuine smile on peoples faces and not a fake forced one. There is a Quay where you can sit and watch the world go by peacefully whilst having a hot bacon baguette or a pasty with a hot cuppa. Or if you fancy one a cold ice cream. The is a cafe where you can take your pets after a long walk. There were quite a few people where i stayed at the Swan Motel where they went on holiday with their dogs. Changes the whole atmosphere that you can take your pets with you. Theres public transport if needed but its not running 24 hours like the city so you get peace and quiet of a night. No over abundance of street lights so you actually see the night sky and the stars. Its just a slower pace which is very relaxing.
Beccles for me is like a second home, i look forward to visiting and hate leaving.

Beccles is a lovely market town on the southern tip of the Broads, it's well positioned for visits to Great Yarmouth, Southwold, Aldeburgh and Dunwich. The locals are very friendly. Also the Kings Head, Wetherspoons hotel was a great, comfortable well staffed base to stay in. Couldn't recommend it more.

Beccles is a quaint old Suffolk village.
Beccles is a quaint old Suffolk village. There are a few shops to browse and a Wetherspoons pub in the centre with lots of outside seating for summer. A good place to eat and drink. There are a a couple of car parks right by the shops. The Waveney House Hotel is a great place to have a drink and relax by the river anf watch boats pass by. Not an easy place if you have difficulty walking as it is uphill into the centre from the Waveney. Although you can stay at Weatherspoons for less, the Waveney House Hotel is in such a great location so would stay there. They have parking too, but make sure you register your car when parking (free but only if you log your registration on arrival).
We absolutely loved our stay. The room was gorgeously decorated, spacious and very comfortable. The bath was big and had instant hot water which was lovely when cold outside. The bar downstairs was so cosy with a fire by the sofas and we couldn't hear any noise at all from our room. Gordon was so lovely and welcoming, we got settled in very easily. The location is as great as it great, central Beccles with plenty of great food options within walking distance. We would happily stay again and highly recommend it.
the hotel is in a great location, the room was very big and comfortable and very clean, the bathroom included. The staff were very friendly and the food exceptitional, the portions were huge. Had a great stay and would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area. Will be back
Stayed for a couple of nights as we needed somewhere local for a family funeral. The cottage was a nice alternative to hotels and allowed some home comforts, flexibility and privacy. Small and quirky little cottage with character. Clean and comfortable. Well equipped.
The room was fine and the facilities meet expectations but the pillows were like bricks, probably the worst pillows I've experienced in a hotel in years, I stay in around 8-10 hotels each year so to say these are the worst I've experienced is no exaggeration
The staff were all helpful and easy to talk to. Breakfasts were excellent. Hotel was very well presented throughout. The outdoor terrace by the river is beautiful (the weather was kind to us). Worth mentioning that Beccles is a lovely place to visit.
Great location in centre of town, comfortable rooms with tea, coffee, biscuits, nice big fluffy towels. The bar is a Wetherspoons so don’t expect fine dining! We didn’t eat there but the drinks selection was good and it has a very nice outside area.
The cottage is beautiful. Very well maintained and spotless. The owners Judith and Andre were really friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend a stay at the college. It is a perfect place to relax in after a bust day exploring the area.
Location excellent, quiet with dining/drinking on the river bank. Twin room was really spacious. Double room was absolutely fine, with lovely bath. Breakfast was excellent. All the staff were cheerful. Loads of hotel parking.
The location of the cottage was great. Loved walking into Beccles and exploring.
The cottage itself was comfortable, clean and felt cosy. Great to have parking for two cars.
Secure garden area meant the dog was safe.
It was absolutely immaculate. Very thoughtfully decorated and equipped, and scrupulously clean.
It was lovely to stay somewhere that was obviously so cared for.
Also handy for the charms of a Beccles and the Broads.
Beautiful property, everything we needed was there and nothing was too much trouble. Lovely, secluded location and easy to get to various locations plus a lovely walk down the river to Beccles
