I wanted a room overlooking car, with my cherished car that my husband gave me just before he passed away. This car is VERY special to me, so I keep an eye on it when 'away'. Food good too. Quiet. Lovely staff- very helpful.

Everything was very newly done with thick carpets and fantastic quality carpentry everywhere. Food was delicious and staff very friendly and helpful

The room was 10/10 - roll top bath in room behind glass partition that had a frosting filter button. Separate bathroom with huge walk in shower...gorgeous local toiletries. Bed and linen was top quality as were all soft furnishings. Home made chocolates in room were a nice touch as was a glass of fizz for my husband and I upon arrival to mark our wedding anniversary. Cocktails and menus in the restaurant are high end / West end equivalent. The food was sublime. Top top it off, the hotel itself is one of the most quintessentially gorgeous buildings that has been tastefully decorated and is absolutely pristine.

We ate one meal in The Crown.
We ate one meal in The Crown. This was a nice meal but pricey. To get to other places to eat you probably need to drive. We had walk round the village. The church is worth a visit and not far from the church came across a childrens playground that our grandchildren loved. The village is very pretty and some of the old buildings are amazing to see . It does not take very long by car to get to more of the lovely villages etc in the area. Sudbury is possibly closest for a bigger town if thats what you want. We did not have time to visit everywhere that we would like to see but they will be on list for next time! We had a great meal in the Fox and Hound at Groton - old country pub with proper home made food and very reasonable prices. Give that a go-well worth it.

David and Paul the hosts were excellent.
David and Paul the hosts were excellent. The farmhouse is a beautifully restored listed building. The home made food was delicious and we were able to walk to the Crown along a country footpath having been given directions by David.

Incredible pub, great food and nice service.
Incredible pub, great food and nice service. Very attentive staff. Rooms very clean and well set out. Every comfort you could want. This is exactly what a pub should be however so many pubs fall below the standard that Angel Inn achieves so flawlessly!

Lots of places to see and things to do, the villages and towns in the local area are all very picturesque. There is a plethora of walking opportunities with many circular walks in the vicinity and further afield. There's also many interesting villages and places with a long history to visit and enjoy. The roads can be slightly tricky at times so a bike would be useful for getting around smaller villages and narrow lanes. There's also a bus service connecting Stoke by Nayland to Sudbury and beyond which we would have made use of if we were staying longer. Lavenham, Long Melford, Flatford Mill are all close by as well as other beautiful villages.

The nearby farmhouse B&B accommodation was excellent, and Stoke by Nayland has two excellent pub/restaurants for meals in the evenings. Like most Suffolk villages the streets are narrow so care is needed to negotiate parked cars.

The restaurant at The Angel is fantastic - we had the tasting menu on both evenings which was amazing. The food was cooked to perfection and extremely tasty; Ruben is an inspired chef. The service was great and the whole experience exceeded our expectations. The hotel room was luxurious and comfortable. We'll be going back for special occasions without a doubt.
Lovely location all.by itself in a lovely hidden valley and yet within striking distance of Stoke By Nayland....very ancient farmhouse carefully renovated to a high standard. Fresh flowers in the bedroom to welcome....fresh milk thoughfully put our for the morning cup.of tea...
Splendid breakfast with special local.ingredients...Exceptionally quiet location.
We stayed for 4 nights in Poplars Farmhouse and felt very comfortable. Our room was spacious, interior of room and house were very stylish. The breakfast was outstanding; attention was paid to every detail.
You could walk to Stoke by Nayland in about 10 minutes (lovely country lane).
We definitely recommend this B&B and its hosts!
Comfortable and very nice room. Big bathroom with excellent bath products. Bowl and towel for our puppy. In general the hotel is very nicely decorated and the restaurant has very characteristic and romantic atmosphere.
Breakfast was really good as well as the hotel.
Would highly recommend the hotel. Room tidy and modern with a comfy feel.
Good size room also.
Bar staff very friendly and pub garden was a very good size.
A fabulous hotel with beautiful gardens, rooms great. The staff were outstanding - friendly, professional and thoughtful but that doesn’t quite describe how lovely everyone was - we really felt welcome.
