Lovely place to stay. Beautifully decorated. Amazing breakfast - freshly prepared and local produce.
The only downside is the thin walls between rooms - you could easily hear every word spoken by the joining room.

Lowestoft comfort
Really comfortable hotel and friendly staff. Unimpressive menu but was sort of expecting that and not much local choice either

Friendly hotel
We had a meet for the evening with friends and used the coach house for the first time. The hotel was lovely, everyone was very friendly , the food was excellent and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The price was reasonable. We have already recommended it to our car club for when we meet up and also family and other friends.

Great for Families
Great place for families to stay after a day in Southwold. We stayed in one of the family rooms which was the best hotel room we have stayed in with our two children - plenty of space and we didn't feel on top of each other at all.
Brilliant breakfast the next day, great choice and lovely FOH lady, who really looked after us and was kind to the children. She arranged for the some cooked items for my toddler then the chef came and asked what crockery would be best for him - we had our own plate which she kindly took and used. Overall brilliant service. We will be back again.

Great Hotel
Had a lovely stay in a superior room. Every thing was very clean, in the room and the hotel bar/lounge. The room it's self was huge, we had a jacuzzi bath and a four poster bed. The bed was lovely and comfortable. All the staff were very attentive and chatty. I would highly recommend anyone in the area to give this hotel a go. The rooms are exceptional value compared to others in the area of the same price.
