Thorpeness Golf Hotel, Suffolk.

The Thorpeness Golf Hotel offers just what most golfers want for their golfbreak: a good standard of accommodation, good food, sensible prices and an eminently playable golf course just outside the front door.

The hotel has bedrooms that are generous enough for two golfers sharing in either Double or Twin bed format.  Bathrooms are clean and bright with plenty of hot water to soothe any overstretched golf muscles.

The main bar doubles up as the Clubhouse too, so there is a comforting golfy feel between the oak panelling etched with names of past champions.  There is always a good snack menu available for post-round revitalisation (not to mention the local Adnams ales).

The food at the Thorpeness Golf Hotel is very good too, so you will be happy to dine-in on every night of your stay in their sunny restaurant overlooking the putting Green.  Should you wish to eat out, there is one pub in the village offering simple fayre, which is within strolling distance of the hotel.  More elaborate cuisine is on offer down in Aldeburgh but it wil involve a car journey to get there (or a cycle along the beach path?).

White Lion Hotel**** - Aldeburgh

White Lion Hotel, Aldeburgh, Suffolk.
White Lion Hotel, Aldeburgh, Suffolk.

A traditional British hotel in a traditional British holiday resort.  Although a historic part of Aldeburgh, the White Lion is extremely well looked after my its owners and constantly refreshed and updated.  The location is excellent, overlooking the beach at the northern end of the esplanade.

Bedrooms are clean and tidy and although fairly compact in size (it is an old building) large enough for a comfortable stay: bathrooms are fresh and functional.

The White Lion has a very good restaurant with plenty of local produce - particularly fish and lobster that is sold in the fishermen's huts just yards away on the beach.  Aldeburgh has many other restaurants to choose from as well for dinner, a stroll down the beach and up the High Street will reveal all the options available.

All in all, the White Lion in Aldeburgh provides a comfortable, central base from where to enjoy the golfing and epicurean delights of Suffolk.
