Boasting a garden, restaurant, bar and free WiFi, The Railway Inn Westerfield is situated in Ipswich, 46 km from The Apex and 48 km from Hedingham Castle. The property is set 4.5 km from Ipswich Station, 5 km from IP-City Centre - Conference Venue and 11 km from Saint Botolph's Burgh. Eye Castle is 31 km from the inn.

A little pocket of country side bliss! Not only was the bar and restaurant absolutely sumptuous but the outside area (where we spent the evening relaxing) was beautiful and exactly the peace and relaxation that we were looking for. Overlooking an expanse of stunning country fields and thickets, we watched the moon come up with the sparkling stars whilst enjoying some delicious Red wine and Ales along with some smashing bites to eat, from the food menu. The room was exactly the country cosy we wanted with a wonderful ensuite bathroom, complete with a great walk-in shower and all the bathroom accompaniments needed. The bed was clean and comfy. The Room was stocked with tea, coffee and cereals as well as a full complimentary breakfast bar and fridge just outside the rooms. An added bonus (very important to enjoy the freedom of the evenings in the garden) was a key code to the side door so that when the bar and restaurant closed you could let yourself in when you're ready to go to bed and have access, in and out of the building at any time. All staff who checked us in and served us throughout the evening and following morning were nothing short of lovely. Sidenote, was very peaceful in the morning when we went to order some coffees. All in all, and if you're looking to really switch off and relax in comfort, this is the place! The Railway at Westerfield will be my little getaway spot from now on.

Ideally positioned in a peaceful residential area, the family-run Toothbrush Rooms at Lattice Lodge - Guest Kitchen & EV Recharging is 15 minutes’ walk from Ipswich Hospital. Bus stops providing links to the city centre are just a few metres away.

Martin the owner cares deeply about providing an excellent service and that shone through during my stay. Spotlessly clean, all information explained in clear detail, great wi fi, easy to use self service. All the staff were amazing and I couldn't be happier with my stay.

    It was very busy on arrival but the staff tried to look after us as quickly and efficiently as possible. The room was basic but comfortable and clean and surprisingly quiet. It is in a great location for Portman Road, and is ideal for evening matches.

    The only thing, of course, is that it is very cheap and that it is located in the city center.

    Great location, few minutes walk to the main city centre. Train station is about a 20 minute walk as well. Room was good size for a single, the bed was comfy and very clean. Host was very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast bag was a little bonus for on the go-good value with porridge, juice and a pastry. Tea/coffee in the room and plenty more available at the desk if you ran out. Would definitely stay again if in the area. Good value for money.
