Mr A
Brilliant stay at the Silos. Excellent rural location for exploring Suffolk. Bed very comfortable, though would benefit from a bit bigger TV. Would definitely stay again.

The silos are lovely in a beautiful setting. Very well equipped and very spacious. A nice welcome and starter pack: tea, coffee, cereal, milk etc. Great shower and good wifi. Quality fixtures and fittings. A five minute drive to the lovely town of Framlingham and easy access to villages,towns and coast. We wanted quirky and this certainly met our expectations!
