Bury St Edmunds is one of East Anglias jewels, boasting historic buildings and some wonderful restaurants. The historic Theatre Royal (National Trust) the independent Abbeygate Cinema are worth a visit. Don’t miss the Abbey Gatehouse and grounds, the Cathedral and spend a few hours browsing the independent shops in the historic town centre. Further afield visit historic Lavenham with its Guildhall(National Trust) and house featured in Harry Potter. There are two National Trust houses within 10 miles plus lots of historic churches and unspoilt countryside. University town Cambridge is around half an hours drive with Newmarket, famous for horse racing even closer. The Suffolk coast is around an hour away.

We only stayed one night but wish we could have stayed for the whole week! John and Michael are the perfect hosts. A fantastic double act with their warmth and humour and knowledge of the local area. We were made very welcome in their wonderful house and they were great company to be with. Their place is spotlessly clean and the breakfast was the best, especially with the beautiful setting on the terrace overlooking the pool. We need to come back so we can explore the area further and make use of the fabulous pool.
John & Michael have a beautiful home and are the most wonderful hosts. From arrival to departure I felt more like a friend than a guest, they could not have done anything more to make my stay more enjoyable. Their home is very spacious and in a beautiful quiet location, that said it is very close to Bury St Edmond's which is a lovely market Town. I would without hesitation recommend a stay with John and Michael, you will not regret it.
John & Michael are wonderful hosts. They are friendly, welcoming and fun to be around. I would definitely return.
