The Dolphin Inn★★★★
Assessed by
Assessor comments
"Comfortable rooms in much-loved village pub on Suffolk coast."
Overview
The Dolphin is an ideal base for exploring Thorpeness and the neighbouring towns of Aldeburgh and Southwold, or to enjoy a peaceful walk around Snape Maltings and RSPB Minsmere. A short stroll takes you to miles of unspoilt Suffolk Heritage coast, a very popular boating lake which is on the doorstep and just up the road, The House in the Clouds.

About the area
Suffolk is Constable country, where the county’s crumbling, time-ravaged coastline spreads itself under wide skies to convey a wonderful sense of remoteness and solitude. Highly evocative and atmospheric, this is where rivers wind lazily to the sea and notorious 18th-century smugglers hid from the excise men.
