This small family-owned and run country hotel in North Suffolk was once a rural public house; today, it has been sympathetically renovated and still retains its historic charm and character.

Had a wonderful stay at the owls hoot, a great couple of nights away with my girlfriend especially with having the hot tub and sauna to enjoy, there are other houses around you but it feels totally private as the garden isn't overlooked by the neighbours.
Definitely recommend and would love to stay again especially as it's fairly local to me.
Amazing little get away.

Overall ,excellent. Breakfast was outstanding. Sadly we did not try the dinner menu which looked very good as we were invited out . The restaurant has numerous awards for its food. The restaurant is shut Sunday night. Quiet and very comfortable rooms.

This is more a rural area with towns and villages nearby.
This is more a rural area with towns and villages nearby. Very close to the Norfolk border with the market town of Diss only a few miles away. Stowmarket and Ipswitch are also not that far. There are castles and the coast not that far either.
The White Horse Pub on the A140 is highly recommended. The food was fantastic and very friendly staff too.
Great place to visit and use as a base to travel out from for a weekend in Suffolk or Norfolk. You do need a car though to get around.

We did not venture into Yaxley itself but did visit Diss and Eye: both picturesque market towns with character. We used the hotel as a base to visit Grime's Graves, and Ely with its magnificent cathedral. Also stopped and watched the aircraft at Lakenheath and got an impromptu fly past of two F15s.
Jake and Katy were great hosts and helped us with small things like freezing our freezer blocks to take with us each day. We enjoyed dinner in the restaurant on our first evening which was a special treat. The property is easy to find as it's located right on the A140 Norwich to Ipswich road. It gave us a really good central base for exploring Suffolk attractions. Our 6 breakfasts were consistently delicious. Plenty of off road parking. There is also a lovely garden area to sit in with picnic tables.
The hotel was very accommodating in allowing us to arrive a little later than the normal booking in time. The staff member on duty was very welcoming and showed us to our room. He was equally hospitable in the morning when we went to sign out. The room was fabulous and made our stay a real experience. Both the chaise long and the bed were beautiful, wonderfully presented and very comfortable. It made for a very romantic stay. The bathroom was very spacious and well lit.
Jake has enhanced the meaning of the feel good Gastro Pub x 10. He, his wife and excellent team provide supreme comfort, incredible food and Michelin star service in Suffolk's best kept secret, not far from Yaxley. Stop over here and you'll get the best treatment you can possibly imagine. Food - and outstanding wine list - makes this one of the best restaurant with rooms in the East of England.
The staff were exceptional and knowledgeable - treating us and our dog as if we were the only guests. Nothing was too much trouble. The food - much of which is homegrown organically in the gardens is delicious. They catered perfectly for vegans and vegetarians. The hotel itself is comfortable, clean, welcoming and very well connected for the surrounding area.
