Love the Boarding House! A cut above all the other restaurants and gastropubs in the area. Tyler and his team do a tremendous job…..and they even customised my dessert. Highly recommended.

Excellent food - far exceeded expectations. We visited for a 60th birthday on a Sunday, so ended up having roast dinner. They had a great selection and a fantastic pork belly. They were excellent, allowing us to put up some birthday banners and have us some lovely truffles. I'd thoroughly recommend.

We’ve been here twice now and I have to say, there is nowhere around this part of the world that comes remotely close to the quality of food that is served here. The menu is very good and lists a handful of options in three courses, we’ve tried a few of them and all dishes are very tasty. The accompanying wine list is excellent and they serve a very good cocktail.

So glad I took up the recommendation from #fenfarmdairy because this was an exceptional dining experience. Every moorish mouthful was a delicious delight. Tyler's menu is imaginative, innovative and simply stunning (the new passionfruit pavlova is a triumph!) We also stayed over - the bedroom was huge! The super-king bed so comfortable, with lovely linens, stylish and spotlessly clean. A really nice touch is fresh milk in the mini-fridge with a selection of '"proper" teas and coffees plus home-made biscuits...lush! There was so much choice for brunch in the morning just didn't know what to opt for (the Suffolk brekkie of course) - again everything just so delicious, locally sourced and cooked to perfection. A mention also for Tyler himself who is a warm and charming host and an a-maz-ing chef! Thank you for such a wonderful time - we can't wait to come back soon! Lisa, Ashley, Gail and Andrew

Absolutely cannot recommend this place highly enough. Free parking, lovely garden, located in the market place amongst the antique shops, and food was amazing. Service fantastic. Not only was our room really lovely and atmospheric with home made biscuits, tea, coffee, bottles of water, the owners were above and beyond helpful. Thank you to Pauline who helped me on arrival - I desperately needed a chemist (they had closed), slight panic, but she came up trumps for me with her own private supplies! We then couldn't book a taxi to get us to a friend's wedding that evening and she put herself out and personally drove us there in her car which is not part of the service - that was really appreciated and kind of her! You are the nicest couple. Thank you for a memorable stay! The breakfast was the best we have had and and your coffee after a hard night of partying was the best! Thank you both x

Fantastic food, best I've eaten in the UK in years. Had a good chat with the chef, thoroughly decent chap and wife at front of house fab too. Hidden gem definitely worth a detour if you are in the area. Very highly recommended

Fantastic restaurant, we had the feather blade of beef and Belly Pork for mains and pear Panna Cotta and lemon curd for dessert. Both were delicious, superbly cooked and beautifully plated. The service was friendly and the ambience was very relaxed, even though we live far away, we plan on returning.
