Well-made wooden lodges with excellent showers and good cooking facilities (sharp knives). The Witch's hut barbecue was a huge hit with the children. The host, Mark, took time to make sure we were settled in and ready. There is lots of space for play, a croquet set, football field and some bikes for loan.

Stunning countryside. Yurt beautifully clean and prettily decorated with lights inside and out. Hosts have thought of everything, and went the extra mile to provide everything we needed. Shared facilities are clean, modern and well-equippped.

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.
Welcome to our 15th Century inn where our modern twist on the traditional creates a wonderful setting to enjoy our food, sample our local ales, explore our wine list and rest a weary head.

Long Melford is definitely a place to stay and enjoy. We used it for a functional purpose as we were touring the area. National Trust property adjacent and a good gig street can occupy time just browsing.

Long Milford is long!
Long Milford is long! It’s a beautiful and striking place with a wonderful church and green at one end and a long engaging street which takes you to the other. Milford Hall sits near the church and is a National Trust site well worth a visit. Classic Suffolk architecture runs down the high street.

We have visited Long Melford before a few years ago.
We have visited Long Melford before a few years ago. It is a nice place to travel to. Some shops have closed but it is still interesting with its Pubs and Cafe's. Plenty of little villages and towns to explore while staying there. We were able to reach places of interest during that time.
Not far from us in Essex and Hertfordshire with lovely changes of scenery.
Very relaxing weekend.

It is as lovely old village, 3 miles long with some vey interesting period buildings. Our highlight was the Abbey Church at the top of the hill; one of the top 3 churches in England and Melford Hall, a gem of a NT property. We sent hours exploring the hall, listening to the guides and search out the references to Beatrix Potter who was a frequent visitor. We also chose to stay there because of its proximity to Lavenham, one of the prettiest villages in England, a MUST visit village. Long Melford has a great range of hotels , pubs and bars, you can choose to spend what you like. We eat in the Cock and Bull where we obtained two main meals for £14.00, excellent value, extensive range and served piping hot.

Long Melford is a lovely village with lots of interesting things to do and two big houses to visit. "Imagine" is an excellent gallery for pottery. The church is special and has unique brasses.
All the staff were lovely. Being an old building I didn’t expect the room to be as big as it was. I have fibromyalgia so had to ask for an extra quilt, so I could lay on one and put the other over me, it was provided immediately. The meals were superb and so much nicer as I didn’t have to cook them myself. The hotel car park wasn’t very big but we normally managed to find a space on the road and parking was free which is rare these days.
The hotel is lovely, old and well maintained but very well appointed, large rooms, beautifully decorated with comfortable beds. The breakfast is served to order piping hot, not self service, and the waiter provided extra toast on request, its a proper full English but no hash browns or black pudding. The Hotel is in the centre of Long Melford with ample parking near bye and close to Melford Hall, a NT gem.
The lodge is very comfortable and has everything you need. It's very relaxing to sit in the garden and spend time watching the sunsets. Long Melford is a lovely town with lots to see and do in the area. Kayaking near Sudbury, cycling on the disused railway and plenty of walks. Would definitely recommend this accommodation. The complimentary breakfast items were much appreciated. Thank you.
Cosy, clean and comfortable with an incredible use of the main garden area! Bruce was so friendly and helpful but respected our privacy during our stay. We took our 6 month old puppy and he loved it. Not far from long Melford which has lovely pubs and restaurants but we had an Indian delivery and it was brilliant. Would definitely return in the future.
Beautiful quiet location right next to the village green and near the amazing wool church. We were told breakfast would be ‘continental’ but don’t let that put you off - it was absolutely fantastic, with fresh pastries, toast, Lancashire bomber cheese, confitures and yoghurt.
The hotel is beautifully designed and very dog friendly too.
The hotel was really nice the staff were exclellent. The whole exprience was made very comfotable for us all the staff very helpful & friendly. The room was very clean. The breakfast & evening meal very good plenty of choice. A really relaxing stay we would reccomend this hotel as we would defiantly return for another stay.
It was a beautiful property and provided everything we needed to enjoy our stay in long Melford during our visit with family. The yard is beautiful. The kitchen is fully stocked with plenty of things to cook with. The beds are comfy. They provided a few games for the kids. It was a lovely stay.
Absolutely perfect in every way. Short walk into Long Melford where there are several places to eat and drink. Hosts were fantastic and very accommodating. We loved our stay and would certainly recommend it for anyone wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of every day life.
It was a lovely, cozy, comfortable and well equipped cottage with everything we needed for a short romantic break. Good location, just a short leisurely walk from the centre of Long Melford where you find an ample supply of pubs, tea rooms, shops, antique emporiums, etc
Excellent location quiet and private. Fabulous host who went out of her way to help us. Accomodation was so lovely, spotless and had absolutely everything you could need, warm and cosy. We loved it and would highly recommend a stay there if in the Long Melford area
Room was luxury. Wood burner a bonus. Breakfast was a good choice and excellent. Recommend pancakes.Paul and Clare excellent hosts. Lot's of information on the Mill and Long Melford. Can't wait to go back sometime in 2023. We highly recommend The Mill.
Beautiful location and surroundings, just a walk across the fields to pubs and cafes of Long Melford. Tastefully decorated. Friendly owner who greeted us upon arrival. Nice enclosed area outdoors where we had breakfast.
Food (both breakfast and evening meal) was very good and the menu imaginative. The staff were very pet-friendly and generally helpful – although perhaps a little out of practice after being furloughed for so long...
Breakfast was ok. It wasn't clear exactly what was available but what we had was fine. This is not the plushest of hotels but as a value for money experience it fated very good. Dinner was good value for money.
Clare was very welcoming and the cottage is very cosy. Breakfast was excellent.
Location of property was great, just off the Main Street and within easy walking distance of all facilities of Long Melford.
