"Perfect place in a perfect setting."

10.0

Everything about it was wonderful. The suite was so comfortable, spotless and fabulous to look at. The garden was exceptional and we had full use of it throughout the stay. Kay and Doug are exceptional hosts and went out of their way to ensure the stay was memorable. Breakfast was excellent with great selection of fruit, yoghurts and croissants, plus full English cooked to perfection. And a great view of the garden and birds whilst eating! Furniture was all very comfortable and real home from home luxury. The history of the Inn was very interesting and made the stay even more special. Great location for seeing the surrounding villages and will definitely return.

Nothing at all, apart from a longer stay!

"Perfect stay in a historic and peaceful setting"

10.0

One of the best places we've stayed & we'll definitely be returning. The Greyhound is in a quiet location, easy to find thanks to comprehensive instructions from the hosts, Doug & Kay and with an allocated parking space. The grounds are lovely, so peaceful and it was nice to be able to relax in the garden & do a little bird watching. We chose to stay in the suite & I would highly recommend. So spacious and the hosts really have thought of everything within the accommodation. The huge four poster bed was very comfortable & bedding had a lovely, fresh smell. Breakfast was really good; a nice continental selection along with a customisable cooked breakfast and even a wide selection of teas to choose from. We opted for the breakfast tea but we were spoilt for choice. The Greyhound is ideally located for visiting Suffolk; only a few minutes away from both Long Melford & Lavenham and we enjoyed finding out some of the history of the building itself. Doug & Kay are such good hosts. Really approachable, they aim to please & they achieved this so well for us. We booked on the basis of the glowing reviews we'd already read and it's a pleasure to be able to add our own high praise.

The hosts are so good at what they do & there was nothing we didn't like.

"Gem of a place"

10.0

Just returned from a wonderful few nights at Greyhound cottage in Glemsford. Beautiful old building dating back to the 1400's with many original features and hosted by the wonderful Doug and Kay who couldn't do enough to make our stay even more special. Fabulous large suite with a huge comfy bed, seating area and great bathroom and shower. Great cooked breakfast with pastries, fruit, yoghurt and cereals all served overlooking their wonderful large garden. This is an absolute gem of a place that we will definitely be returning too. Thoroughly recommend, 5 stars

Nothing, all was perfect
