Suzanne has created an idyllic country retreat. Suffolk and Norfolk offers numerous places of interest to visit but worth spending time locally visiting the nature reserves, garden/tea rooms. Visit Southwold to experience a true English seaside resort. Thank you David, Paula and Jon.

The Granary was very clean, well presented and comfortable. It is in a peaceful location not too far from main roads which makes it an excellent base from which to visit locations in both Suffolk and Norfolk. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to book there again. Suzanne and Andy were friendly, helpful and welcoming hosts.

A beautiful property that well deserves its "luxury" rating - very well equipped and with quality furnishings. Ideally situated for touring but also, with its private outdoor space and furniture, suitable for those wanting a quiet, relaxing break! Highly recommended.

A very well-equipped, comfortable and perfectly situated property which allowed for days out in Norfolk and Suffolk. The garden provided a tranquil spot to watch the varied wildlife. The owners were friendly and helpful without being obtrusive. We would certainly recommend a stay at The Granary.
