Back to Bury St Edmunds

Owner Cate is lovely , put a few things in the room for a couple of days of breakfast Room and good size Nice En-suite No bath extractor this created humidity Whilst the room was nice , it was poorly lite as was the bathroom, and no place to hang used towels to dry . Needs shelves in the bathroom. Not enough drawer space . The door was stiff and we were always concerned about waking people up. Parking is close by . Can walk into town .

Great Stay at the Grey Room

The property is just as described and as lovely as it looks in the pictures. Nicely furnished, comfortable bed. The host provided essential food for the first breakfast (and beyond) which was a lovely and welcome touch. There was even an iron and ironing board provided. Parking was nearby and easy. Would not hesitate to recommend or stay again.

Great little place

We had a great couple of nights here whilst at a friends wedding nearby. The room is a good size for two sharing and was really well equipped, super clean and modern. Cate sent clear instructions on how we could let ourselves in when we arrived, and left some breakfast items for us which was a nice touch!

Three nights stay at the Grey Room Bury St Edmunds

The room was spacious, spotlessly clean and comfortable. Likewise the bath room. There was all the equipment there that I needed. The area was peaceful and pleasant. It suited me perfectly.

Wonderful accommodation a short distance from town

I stayed at this lovely property for just over a week. Everything was supplied to cater for a week of comfort and the bed was superb. Cate very kindly supplied breakfast items and also took in some shopping I had ordered prior to my arrival and everything was unpacked and put in the appropriate place which was a lovely touch. This accommodation is an easy walk into town where there is a superb shopping centre and many locations to eat. I can highly recommend this accommodation.

Fabulous view, comfortable base for exploring picturesque English countryside

We had a lovely stay. The house is clean and comfortable and accommodated a family of four well. The owner was friendly and helpful. Lots to do nearby - we went fossil hunting in Walton, trips to the beach at Frinton and had lots of local walks in the Dedham area.

Idyllic location. Beautiful property.

The bungalow is set in a stunning location on the edge of the Dedham Vale close to Flatford Mill. The accommodation is spacious, spotlessly clean and is well equipped. The owner provided a super welcome pack and was on hand to answer questions on our arrival. As a family, we wanted a place to relax. Flatford Lodge delivered! I shall certainly miss waking up to the view of the Dedham Vale. Would highly recommend this property.

Lovely accommodation in a great location

We stayed at the White Room for three nights as a base to explore Suffolk. The accommodation is modern, comfortable and quiet in a great location just 10 minutes walk from the centre of town. A welcome pack of breakfast goodies was in the room on arrival - and although we didn't meet Cate, she gave us her mobile number should we need anything. The comfy bed was very welcome after a day's exploring - as was the powerful hot shower. Lovely accommodation that we will definitely return to when next in the area.

We are thrilled you liked the room and really do hope you come and stay again. Thank you so much for your kind words, as we really try hard to make the room, the bed and the shower as lovely as possible. Please come and explore some more and discover more hidden gems around Suffolk. Happy travels! Cate
