As a local physiotherapist i have enjoyed three welcoming visits. Initially the food menu attracted me in what i would describe as a relaxing wine bar like country atmosphere. Upon chance i booked accomdation over the Dedham Hall and i have to say i was most impressed by the high standards of how new and well maintained the room was.... More

We booked one of their package deals and upgraded to a superior room over a weekend which included dinner 2 nights, b&b plus a bar snack. It was one of the nicest hotels I have stopped in. The staff were excellent, neither in your face or hard to get your attention. We stopped in Elsa which has a lovely view... More

Thank you very much for your kind report of your stay with us last weekend. I am very happy you enjoyed yourself and I will pass on your compliments to my staff. As you rightly say, we are an inn with all rooms are over the trading areas of the pub so noise from downstairs does filter up. However things... More

Our menu changes every two weeks and if there is something you fancy, always happy to cook off menu. The building is a bit wonky but we... More

Statyed here on a late availability Friday night deal - quick train and short taxi ride from London Liverpool. Deal included 3 course dinner, Bed & Breakfast + either afternoon tea or bar lunch. Taking into account that this is essentially a pub with accommodation, the food was excellent, the wine list was stunning (an extensive range with full tasting... More

Room (Boudicca): reasonable size (but not big), floor in bathroom needs replacing, metal-framed windows would not shut properly, right above bar so noisy until midnight, bed comfortable but a little soft for my liking. There was dirt in one of the coffee cups. Bar: the main bar area is popular with locals, and there is a lot of foot traffic... More

I have written to MG to apologise for the shortcomings in their room. The bathroom floor was flooded during the week and has taken a couple of days to organise replacment. The window does close, the hinge and become unaligned. The bar closes at 11pm and empty by 11.30pm. We advertise the location of all our rooms and we rarely... More

Enjoyed my 2 night stay at this hotel. Not much to do locally at this time of year though which is why the rates are good. The service and food were excellent; the room (Elsa) was nice although the sloping floor takes a bit of getting used to,

Organized a country walk around lunch here. Review is for restaurant only, which was far more Italian oriented than I was expecting. Generous primi portions of excellent pasta followed by an awesome veal chop.. Service got a bit forgetful as the lunch went on but who cares, wish there was something like this near me in London. About £35 a... More

This inn is really nice and friendly. We didn't stay a night, but went for lunch on a Saturday. It was extremely busy, we got the last table. Menu is interesting - I ordered venison stew which was really good, the only criticism I'd have is portion sizes are slightly small - but the quality's really good and they source... More
