"The room was in an annex and rather tired. The bed and pillows were both hard and lumpy. I did not sleep well. The service was a bit brusque, but the food was good."

This lovely mediaeval market town has a warm and friendly atmosphere throughout the year. DIRECTIONS FROM THE TRAIN STATION: We are approximately a ½ mile from the train station. Walking down the hill from the station (keeping it on your left), turn left onto Fornham Road and keep walking until you reach the Esso garage. We are behind the walls on the right hand side. DIRECTIONS FROM LONDON / CAMBRIDGE: Travel along the A14, leave at exit marked "Bury St Edmunds West (42) B1106 / A1101". At the bottom of the slip road bear left. After approximately 1 mile turn right at the first mini roundabout signposted "Bury St Edmunds A1101" and continue until you reach traffic lights. The entrance to the hotel is immediately on your left, just after the sign behind the flint wall. DIRECTIONS FROM IPSWICH: Travel along the A14, leave at exit marked "Bury St Edmunds Central (43) A1302 / A1101". Take first exit signposted "A1101 Mildenhall" and "Town Centre".
