The Peacock Inn

Perfect for a relaxing break in a quiet location with excellent food and service

Pros: My wife and I visited for a 3 day break. The village is small and charming and in a quiet location with easy access to Lavenham, Bury St Edmunds and a couple of historic houses. The lovely14th C Inn is managed by Jack and Jess who made us very welcome. Jack took our luggage from the car to our room. Nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in the ensuite garden room, Orwell, which was clean and comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities. It was only a very short walk to the bar and restaurant in the main building. Service for breakfast and the evening meal was excellent and attentive whilst not being intrusive, creating a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. The food was delicious thanks to the skills of the chef Sam Glover. Overall it was clear a lot of effort has been put into making a stay as enjoyable as possible. We both thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.

Pros: Beautiful authentic pub in the Suffolk country. Excellent staff. Very welcoming. Breakfast was lovely, hot and fresh, not reheated from earlier cooking! Highly recommended.

Cons: Nothing! It was great.

A beautiful inn with delicious food!

Pros: The inn is in a beautiful location, and has incredible food! The staff were extremely kind and welcoming. Thanks for a lovely stay!

The perfect night away from start to finish - absolutely wonderful

Pros: A friendly warm welcome, a stunning room which was clean, cozy and beautifully decorated. Our meal was undoubtedly one of the best meals I have ever eaten in my life. We visited to celebrate a special occasion and from start to finish, The Peacock Inn was fantastic. The staff lead by Jack exceptional, the food exquisite and the decor, and ambience perfect. What a little gem. We can’t recommend highly enough and will certainly be returning very soon.

Cons: Everything was just superb !!

Pros: Very cosy and exceptionally friendly and professional service, nothing too much trouble and the best pub food I have eaten anywhere.

Cons: Would have preferred a king size bed as a double is very small for two adults.

Couples weekend break

Pros: Gorgeous old pub full of charm.The service from Jack, Annabel and team is first class,really friendly and professional. The garden rooms are lovely and well equipped with tea, coffee etc. The food in the restaurant is superb, some of the best I’ve had and they go the extra mile to accommodate you if something on the menu needs tweaking ( I had a sauce removed due to shellfish allergy). Breakfast was delicious and the freshly baked soda bread is gorgeous.

Cons: N/A

Beautiful! Loved it!

Pros: Beautiful room, beautiful hotel in a beautiful setting!

Decent overnight stay in historic building with sensational food and welcoming staff.

Pros: Wonderful staff, fascinating building, sensational food, ideal location, comfortable bed.

Cons: Did not realise room was NOT en suite. One shared bathroom did not have a working light. One shared toilet left in a mess by another guest. Music and voices from bar/kitchen area came through ceiling to our room loudly until closing time.

Country inn hospitality at it's best, a rural haven for a weekend get-away

Pros: An old-world pub in a pretty Suffolk village. Wooden beams and brick fireplace with an open fire crackling in the hearth. Friendly and helpful staff, a first-rate breakfast and cordon bleu dining. A comfortable bed, and a modern en-suite bathroom, all spotlessly clean. Overall, country inn hospitality at its best

Cons: Bedroom furnishing was a bit sparse. It could have done with more wardrobe/drawer space, a chair, some bedside mats.

Delicious, fantastically comfy stay, with wonderful staff.

Pros: Perfect old inn, all higgledy-piggledy and exposed beams. Staff were amazing. Food was delicious. Beds were sooooo comfy (and I can barely sleep anywhere other than my own bed). Location is gorgeous. Picture perfect English countryside bolt hole!

Cons: Rooms have shared bathrooms.
