Gorgeous location in a quiet Suffolk Village. The building was beautiful and ideally decorated. We didn't use the restaurant but the menu looked good (we were meeting friends elsewhere). Bar was well stocked and staff very helpful. We upgraded and had a beautiful and large room. Bathroom was a little less decadent than the rest of the hotel but clean enough. We used our own toiletries but good to see environmental impact was thought about. TV was odd and difficult to use - usual channels didn't seem available and if we tried Netflix or any of the other apps, none of them worked, so we turned it off and just had music playing on our phones. Comfy bed, and tea/coffee available, so all good. We loved it.
*worth mentioning that had we paid full price I would have felt it a little expensive, but I had a Booking.com credit and so actually it felt like a bargain.
The Crown Hotel is a family-run historic inn and restaurant, built in 1610. It retains many interesting features, such as Tudor cellars and exposed internal beams.

The location of the hotel is perfect and within walking distance of everything in the village. If you want a luxury hotel this is not for you, but if you are looking for a basic, warm, clean central hotel with good service this is perfect.

Long Melford is definitely a place to stay and enjoy. We used it for a functional purpose as we were touring the area. National Trust property adjacent and a good gig street can occupy time just browsing.

Long Milford is long!
Long Milford is long! It’s a beautiful and striking place with a wonderful church and green at one end and a long engaging street which takes you to the other. Milford Hall sits near the church and is a National Trust site well worth a visit. Classic Suffolk architecture runs down the high street.

We have visited Long Melford before a few years ago.
We have visited Long Melford before a few years ago. It is a nice place to travel to. Some shops have closed but it is still interesting with its Pubs and Cafe's. Plenty of little villages and towns to explore while staying there. We were able to reach places of interest during that time.
Not far from us in Essex and Hertfordshire with lovely changes of scenery.
Very relaxing weekend.

It is as lovely old village, 3 miles long with some vey interesting period buildings. Our highlight was the Abbey Church at the top of the hill; one of the top 3 churches in England and Melford Hall, a gem of a NT property. We sent hours exploring the hall, listening to the guides and search out the references to Beatrix Potter who was a frequent visitor. We also chose to stay there because of its proximity to Lavenham, one of the prettiest villages in England, a MUST visit village. Long Melford has a great range of hotels , pubs and bars, you can choose to spend what you like. We eat in the Cock and Bull where we obtained two main meals for £14.00, excellent value, extensive range and served piping hot.

Long Melford is a lovely village with lots of interesting things to do and two big houses to visit. "Imagine" is an excellent gallery for pottery. The church is special and has unique brasses.
Lovely place to stay in Long Melford. We didn't use the restaurant for dinner but the bar was great, the building is an amazing, historic place to walk around. The hotel were very happy to take on my extra requests - I had a 7am departure for a hike and they sorted out a breakfast in the early hours. Rooms are spacious with great facilities, and the actual building is pleasingly quiet, we never got woken up by noisy neighbours or anything like that.
Will have to come back for dinner next time :)
Paul was a fantastic host . Checked in early and was invited to use the garden area as no one was in that property .Due to the great weather Paul set us up to have breakfast in the lovely private garden which was a nice surprise as usually it would be in the conservatory . The Breakfast is fantastic and varied . Totally relaxed atmosphere and good location for pubs & restaurants in Long Melford also country walks at every turn . Wonderful stay .
All the staff were lovely. Being an old building I didn’t expect the room to be as big as it was. I have fibromyalgia so had to ask for an extra quilt, so I could lay on one and put the other over me, it was provided immediately. The meals were superb and so much nicer as I didn’t have to cook them myself. The hotel car park wasn’t very big but we normally managed to find a space on the road and parking was free which is rare these days.
Amazing stay once again. Lovely little village with lots of places to eat. Accommodation is pure luxury with such attention to detail from the home made cake to the little ducks for the bath if you can find them. Just park your car up right outside your room and explore. Lovely hosts that look after you and cook you a fabulous breakfast. If your thinking about it don't just book it you won't be disappointed.
The lodge is very comfortable and has everything you need. It's very relaxing to sit in the garden and spend time watching the sunsets. Long Melford is a lovely town with lots to see and do in the area. Kayaking near Sudbury, cycling on the disused railway and plenty of walks. Would definitely recommend this accommodation. The complimentary breakfast items were much appreciated. Thank you.
Cosy, clean and comfortable with an incredible use of the main garden area! Bruce was so friendly and helpful but respected our privacy during our stay. We took our 6 month old puppy and he loved it. Not far from long Melford which has lovely pubs and restaurants but we had an Indian delivery and it was brilliant. Would definitely return in the future.
Beautiful quiet location right next to the village green and near the amazing wool church. We were told breakfast would be ‘continental’ but don’t let that put you off - it was absolutely fantastic, with fresh pastries, toast, Lancashire bomber cheese, confitures and yoghurt.
The hotel is beautifully designed and very dog friendly too.
Friendly & competent staff.
Location: walking access to Long Melford’s shops/antiques, easy on-street parking.
Food: interesting dinner menu (but not pretentious), well-cooked & presented, generous breakfast.

Good room facilities but NO WI-FI!!
The hotel was really nice the staff were exclellent. The whole exprience was made very comfotable for us all the staff very helpful & friendly. The room was very clean. The breakfast & evening meal very good plenty of choice. A really relaxing stay we would reccomend this hotel as we would defiantly return for another stay.
I loved the character of the property & it’s ‘easy 2 minute walk’ location to most of what Long Melford had to offer. Situated off the High Street, down a small lane, meant peace and tranquility too.....
Claire was a great host, she is a sociable lady and cooks a fab breakfast the next morning :-)
It was a beautiful property and provided everything we needed to enjoy our stay in long Melford during our visit with family. The yard is beautiful. The kitchen is fully stocked with plenty of things to cook with. The beds are comfy. They provided a few games for the kids. It was a lovely stay.
It was a lovely, cozy, comfortable and well equipped cottage with everything we needed for a short romantic break. Good location, just a short leisurely walk from the centre of Long Melford where you find an ample supply of pubs, tea rooms, shops, antique emporiums, etc
Excellent location quiet and private. Fabulous host who went out of her way to help us. Accomodation was so lovely, spotless and had absolutely everything you could need, warm and cosy. We loved it and would highly recommend a stay there if in the Long Melford area
Room was luxury. Wood burner a bonus. Breakfast was a good choice and excellent. Recommend pancakes.Paul and Clare excellent hosts. Lot's of information on the Mill and Long Melford. Can't wait to go back sometime in 2023. We highly recommend The Mill.
It is a pretty rural location. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. They made free eggs from their hens available It is located close to Long melford where there are plenty of interesting things to do and places to eat.
Beautiful location and surroundings, just a walk across the fields to pubs and cafes of Long Melford. Tastefully decorated. Friendly owner who greeted us upon arrival. Nice enclosed area outdoors where we had breakfast.
A great location on the green at Long Melford. Friendly professional staff. A lovely pub (with great grub) atmosphere. Excellent breakfast. Would happily stay again - and hope we do!
Great setting, lake was good for a paddle, close to Long Melford... Very peaceful.
