The Westgate, a property with a bar, is situated in Bury Saint Edmunds, 600 metres from The Apex, 4.9 km from Ickworth House, as well as 39 km from Hedingham Castle.

This was a brief visit for the weekend. I needed a comfortable place to stay and somewhere to keep my car. Staff were accommodating before and after my stay with parking facilities. The room was small, but that was fine for my needs. A private bathroom with a lovely strong, warm shower. Towels provided. This was a good place to be at the heart of Bury St, Edmunds. I would happily stay there again.

Offering a garden and garden view, The Cosy Place near centre is set in Ipswich, 45 km from Hedingham Castle and 50 km from Ickworth House.

Amazing experience! Couldn't have been any clearer or more comfortable. You are let in by a secure key coded door to a spotless kitchen with all the utilities you'd need for a night. The free bottled water, chocolate, tea bags and milk were a lovely touch. Place was absolutely spotless. A comfy bed with 2 puffed pillows and a blanket for the chiller nights. Great location to walk into Ipswich town centre and free parking too! Highly recommend.

    A charming little cottage, it is beautifully decorated throughout with lots of lovely touches - watch out for those little mice! Fantastic location as a base for exploring this wonderful town, it was ideal for a little weekend break with my sister. The house and the pretty garden are lovely to relax in. Highly recommend. Host was responsive, leaves lots of little touches that make you feel very welcome.

    Exceptional, from charming host and staff, heated outdoor swimming pool, enchanting room looking out onto the garden and countryside beyond, with four-poster bed and exquisite ensuite bathroom, lovely quiet house and location, to bike storage in the garage. This was a fabulous discovery for us. Worth every penny.
