Inspector comments
"Stylish renovation with beautifully presented food."
Overview
The Black Lion is a very inviting establishment. It has roaring log fires in winter, a cosy drawing room and a new conservatory that leads out onto an alfresco dining terrace. The 10 stylish bedrooms range from snug to family rooms; some overlook the green and others the cathedral. All have TVs, tea- and coffee-making facilities, free fast WiFi and luxury toiletries as standard. The skilfully created and beautifully presented food has been awarded two AA Rosettes.

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.
