Home from home comfort and a beautiful view of Framlingham Castle – just a three minute walk from Fram town centre. Castleview has two delightfully furnished double rooms, both with ensuite, TV, WiFi , tea and coffee making facilities and fridge. Breakfast is served with a castle view and features a good menu with locally sourced produce including the free range bantam eggs from the owner’s own hens. Off road parking and a safe place for bicycles overnight. The owner is happy to loan their two adult bikes with helmets for anyone wishing to explore the countryside – as well as paris of wellies for a relaxing walk around the Mere!

Historic manor house, positioned in open Suffolk countryside and a haven of peace and birdsong, offering 3 beautiful and hugely characterful rooms for overnight stays (sorry, no children under 12). Set in an award-winning two acre garden, designed by artists Timothy and Christine Easton (and featured in Country Life and several books). Timothy’s paintings made around the garden and with views through the distinctive windows in various rooms, are well known through cards, prints and books. They also hang on the walls around the house. He has a north-facing studio in the garden, but guests may roam the garden and enjoy its little buildings and seating.

Charming 16th century coaching inn steeped in history, with exposed beams, wonky walls and squeaky floors. What’s more, the family-run Crown Hotel couldn’t be more at the heart of the community if it tried! Stay looking out over Market Hill perhaps, relax over a drink or bite to eat in the well-stocked bar, lounge or restaurant. Bedrooms are all individually styled; winter evenings see the fires lit in the lounge; there’s a function room for private dining or larger occasions, and outside tables for fine weather al fresco moments too. Definitely dog-friendly.
