    The breakfast were fresh and made to order, using mostly their own produce, The grounds were a little neglected mostly because of ill health of the owner.

    Required Geoffrey being up when we got back to let us in. No keys provided. In fact we got back at a reasonable time in the end from family wedding, but not expected back until midnight and felt rather awkward to have to ask the host to stay up. This could be awkward if your event is very late finishing.

    Lovely old listed plus house conveniently placed. Parking. Delicious breakfast, cooked from local ingredients . Country house style. Caroline and Geoffrey very welcoming. Tea and coffee facilities in room.

    There was no lock on my room door as a young woman travelling alone it did make me feel a little worried someone would come in while getting changed or while I was sleeping. But I was the only guest there at the time so that made it a bit better for me.

    The hosts were lovely, was like staying with your grandparents. They would ask about your day and give you great food, before midnight curfew. Absolutely loved their own bacon. If I didnt have such a long drive I would have asked for some to take back with me ha ha. I had no problems at all and enjoyed my stay here. Beds were comfy and they opened the window for my room so I wouldn't get too hot. Booked food on the first night and it was all lovely, I got to try pigeon for the first time. It was very tasty 😋 Small shop, pub and Indian restaurant nearby, loveky location.

    Nothing bad to report at all, very very nice.

    We could not have been happier staying here, an amazing house with very special and welcoming hosts Facilities were great with a quality not found in albeit most establishments, this family home is without doubt the best and what we like, we really appreciated it in every way. Breakfast was absolutely amazing, with the comfort of nice conversations with Geoffrey and Caroline being so helpful and accommodating. The home made compote and bacon from their own pigs was a brilliant addition and so tasty too. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

    Utterly brilliant , you are treated as the quest , in an elegant manner. It’s not a grab all freefor all, you receive personal service where youare treated as if you were the the nobility who would normally be living in the house

    We needed to depend on the hosts being home or us checking timetables with them so that we could access the house and our room. This wasn't a problem over the few days we stayed and they were home during that time but perhaps with a longer stay it might occasionally be restricting.

    Breakfast was delicious and generous. The room was very comfortable and warm. Jeffrey and Caroline looked after us well. We liked the personal touch with breakfast - finding out exactly what we would like. The homemade bread, jam and Caroline's fruit compote were particularly tasty and of course their fresh eggs and meat.

    Haughley House is set in a pretty, quiet Suffolk village. The house is full of historical traditionally British country character. Our hosts, Caroline and Jeffery are such friendly and accommodating hosts who made us feel welcome in their home. The room was comfortable and the breakfast beautifully presented and lots of choice. It set us up for the day. The house is close to many attractions. We visited Southwold and Orford Ness, but there is so much more in and around Suffolk. Would recommend.
