J Green
Loverly area and surroundings, very peaceful, owners very friendly.Furnishing/decor is a mix of quirky and dated. Bedding and towels were clean, but could do with replacing. Kitchen a bit lacking and could do with some more glasses and cutlery, with 6ish settings and 6 people meant we were having to wash up in between dishwasher loads. Needs some more items like tongs, chopping boards and baking trays. Nothing that a £200 trip to supermarket or IKEA wouldn’t sort.Kids loved the field to kick a ball in and the Tennis Court.Would return, if only for the area, peace and Tennis Court, but would bring our camping box of bits….

The Granary is in a lovely quiet setting on the owners land, Sarah and Bill are very friendly and helpful. The Granary is chintzy but up together, a little worn but this adds to its charm. Easy access to all that east Suffolk has to offer.

Good base not to far from local amenities (1 1/2 miles to Framlingham). Sarah and Bill owners on hand if we had any issues. Best night sleep I have had in years. Peaceful just what was needed at Christmas.
