We had a lovely stay in Claire’s beautiful little cottage. The breakfasts were very tasteful and she even suggested making variations if we wanted to. She had some amazing tips for places to visit and where to eat. The location is also very good, near the high street with a lovely countryside view. Claire’s a very lovely person and we loved cuddling with Peggy the cat. Definitely would recommend!

Everything you needed and more. The hosts Stacy and Mark were very informative and were at hand for anything we needed. What a wonderful place and set up they have it was like stepping back in time to “Little house on the prairie” only with mod cons. There were boats if ya fancied a row on the lake, there were bikes if ya fancied biking into the village, a kids play area, bbq facilities and much more. We would defiantly be back. The Christmas tree and chocolates left in our accommodation were a nice touch. The lodge itself was lovely warm and cosy, it kept its heat so i was happy 😊. Long Melford has plenty of pubs, tea rooms and shops. Also we went into Sudbury for the market and the Christmas tree Exhibition! Have a TRULY WONDERFUL weekend. Thank you Stacy and Mark.

We’ve just returned from the most incredible stay at Lakeview Lodges, and I honestly can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed so warmly by Mark and Stacy, the most thoughtful and accommodating hosts you could wish for. Their attention to detail, kindness, and genuine passion for making every guest feel special truly made our stay unforgettable. Traveling with four children can sometimes be a challenge, but not here – our kids were in absolute heaven! The facilities were spot on: safe, clean, and packed with things to keep them entertained for hours. But the real highlight for all of us was the stunning lake. The kids spent every spare moment by the water – exploring, fishing, paddle boarding, and enjoying the peaceful beauty of the surroundings. It felt like we’d found a hidden slice of paradise. The lodge itself was spotless, comfortable, and perfectly equipped for a family of six. Every little touch had been thought through, from cozy bedding to the layout that gave everyone their own space without feeling crowded. We honestly didn’t want to leave – and we’re already planning our return. A huge thank you again to Mark and Stacy for creating such a magical place, my little one hasn’t stopped talking about his new best friend ‘Mark’ SO sweet!

It's not every day you get to stay in a building from the 1300s! I love old, historic properties like this, and Bull Hotel was no exception. The hotel is very charming and offers comfortable beds in spectacular surroundings. The staff was very friendly, and the breakfast was nothing short of amazing. I also had dinner there and the food was great! The location is very good for exploring Long Melford and nearby towns such as Sudbury, Bury St. Emunds and Lavenham by car or local bus. Great hiking possibilities, and close proximity to Melford Hall and Kentwell Hall. I'd definitely stay here again if I return to the area.

We've stayed in Long Melford on a number of occasions but being here on a crisp winter's evening with the Christmas lights and decorations was even more of a bonus. The church is flood-lit at night and looks magical. It is a historic town and a great base for visiting nearby Lavenham and Gainsborough's House (and gallery) in Sudbury. As well as The Bull, where we stayed, drank and ate, there are plenty of other places to eat and drink in Long Melford and it is extremely picturesque.

Busy village high street with a few nice pubs.

Busy village high street with a few nice pubs. Went to Sudbury to find a proper restaurant that wasn't just pub food. Thought Scutcher's was too pricey and Black Lion not enough on menu appealed. Nice walk up to the two halls on the Sunday morning.

Long Melford is a lovely Suffolk town.

Long Melford is a lovely Suffolk town. It is blessed with quite a few shops and eateries. Its in easy striking distance of Lavenham, Bury St Edmunds and Cambridge. There is a good cluster of things to visit around - Long Melford Hall, Kentwell Hall are very close by. There are also a couple of Antique centres and lots of routes to walk around the area.

Long Melford is in a wonderful location and is ideally placed for touring the area of both Suffolk and parts of Essex. It is an interesting place to stroll around itself with its small independent shops, tearooms and hostelries . Places to visit include Bury St Edmunds, Cambridge, Southwold on the coast , Sudbury, Clare and Colchester or just casually drive around the area to visit lovely sleepy villages with thatch cottages in abundance.

Lovely village, with pretty houses.

Lovely village, with pretty houses. Lots of options for walking. The National Trust property of Melford Hall is a nice place to visit, as is the privately owned Kentwell Hall. Lots of places to eat as well as quirky little shops. We are in the Black Lion which was excellent.

Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Room was very clean and comfortable in a nicely appointed and historic building. Breakfast was excellent, very well cooked with some of the best tasting bacon and sausages I have ever had. Long Melford is a great base from which to explore South West Suffolk eg Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury, etc. We would happily stay here again.

Long Melford is a great centre from which to visit Suffolk and we also spent a day in Cambridge very easily via the nearest Park and Ride which is the Newmarket Road one. Kentwell and Melford Hall well worth a visit and easily walked to from the property. Surrounding farmland walks also lovely. Plenty of good pubs, shops and places to eat.
