Amazing house. Beautiful fully equipped room. Everywhere was so pristine that it made me feel like a princess. The grounds were exceptionally manicured. Greeted by a lovely young man who introduced himself and showed us around in a polite manner. Even met the owner, who was gracious and polite. I would definitely stay here again without doubt

Beautiful cottage in the heart of Lavenham. I rented this cottage for my parents over the Christmas period and they loved it. Very comfortable, beautifully designed and well thought out in terms of the layout. Small touches like a breakfast bowl filled with cereal, coffee and little chocolates which was very thoughtful. Gorgeous little garden out the back. The bathrooms were both so modern and the added touch of having the bathtub in the bedroom was a lovely treat. Would definitely book this place again! Thanks Heather

Lavenham, exceptionally beautiful; both historically and architecturally very impressive. If late mediaeval and Tudor buildings appeal to you, Lavenham is the perfect place to stay . The Guildhall, owned and preserved by the National Trust is a must for a visit as is listening to the guide Tom. Tom has a forensic knowledge and great love for the building and its history, he also has a great sense of humour and he makes a visit to the Guildhall alive with fascinating detail. We enjoyed a fabulous stay at The Swan and will return there. Our only mistake was a visit to the Memsahib Restaurant on a Sunday evening; charming people but exceptionally greasy and tasteless food. The Swan has an excellent Spa which may well appeal to all ages and there are many independent shops to browse. There are also great walks to be enjoyed nearby and wealth of history to uncover.

The local shops and tea rooms were lovely and all within walking distance of the hotel, perfect location for us. The Greyhound served tapas which was very nice, we didn't go out in the garden but I think there is a seating area outside. The Swan is lovely, you can go to for a drink or a meal, there is a lovely garden too. There are several small independent shops with interesting and varied products. The Curiosity Corner shop is worth a visit and the Antique shop is quite big with lots of interesting items, again worth a visit. We found most of the shops interesting. The Market Square is very quaint and lovely to just sit and be with a cuppa!

Appreciate weather was exceptionally hot but staff not that attentive and difficult to find around the hotel. Lots of stairs to rooms so any mobility issues are not easy No offer of help with luggage The charge for dogs excessive Food was good but couldn’t eat on second night due to issue with kitchen , shame because we intended to eat each night. One staff member very rude at breakfast and refused to serve us because of the dogs. We checked out one day early and still charged for dogs for that third day. Could have at least not charged that amount as gesture of goodwill. In light of experience we have cancelled our stay in December.

Our accommodation was a main road, but a fairly quiet one, with free unrestricted parking. We managed to park outside the property each night. Suffolk is a beautiful county with very nice countryside and interesting villages. The cathedral at Bury St Edmonds was worth a visit.

For us it was a trip into English history.

For us it was a trip into English history. The town is kept incredibly well in its original medieval form and it has charming relaxing and warm atmosphere. They're lovely little shop where you can find some unique items, and the little cafés are lovely. Christmas and New year is particularly good time for visiting as all beautiful decorations and lights are on display.

(Self catering) Two convenience stores selling an excellent choice of goods - including high quality ready meals. Also a superb butcher next to one of the stores. We liked the quirkiness of this very old listed property. Uneveness of floors etc. The building had been restored to a high standard. No creaking. Surprisingly large. Bigger on the inside than on the outside - like the Tardis. Lavenham was most interesting.

Georgina is a beautiful property situated in the well served historic village of Lavenham. It is spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed - all the thoughtful little extras (much appreciated when I realised I had forgotten the toothpaste) put this home on par with a 5 star boutique hotel. I wouldn't hesitate to book again or recommend for family and friends.
