We had such a wonderful time staying here. It’s the most beautiful property and the room was extremely well kept and cosy. The pub and gardens were great also. Would 1000% recommend

Lovely rustic pub / hotel. Room was great with the most comfortable bed I’ve slept in for some time. Kitchen was closed for refurbishment but only a short walk into the centre of the village. Good choice of cask ales in the bar. Will stop here again if work brings me back to the area

From the moment we walked in we felt very welcome by not only the staff but by the locals and were made to feel at home Our room “Dedham”was amazing,very clean and modern but still in keeping with the period of the pub. They had thought of all the facilities that we may need along with a varied selection of food and drink for breakfast . The bathroom was very impressive with an extra large bath and shower along with a great view of the church. We could not recommend this hotel more and shall be returning

Lovely friendly staff, working in a wonderful grade 2 listed building. Bedrooms are all beautifully decorated with extremely comfy beds and very cosy. All come with very handy fridges with fruit, fruit juice and milk also a very well stocked hamper greets you with muffins, biscuits, oats and cutlery. This is our fifth or sixth stay, which normally ends up with us booking another night or two!!! The young lady housekeeper is always so happy to help and makes sure we’re stocked up when we do end up booking another night. We’re big fans!

The room was an unexpected delight so many thoughtful things - the breakfast hamper, drinks and snacks in the fridge. The quality of the products in the room was excellent.

An ancient pub with fantastic bedrooms. Easy parking, excellent range of beers in the bar, great staff, clean and well looked after room. No restaurant at the pub but a fantastic breakfast basket in the room. Really nice place. Thoroughly recommended

Very characterful property which was very picturesque. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was a continental hamper in the room and included a fresh coffee pod machine.

I had a really nice stay at The WoolPack Inn. I liked the way the room was decorated and it was lovely and clean. Daily housekeeping too which was great. Staff were really friendly and happy to help. Only small downside was that the room was pretty small - no wardrobe (just some hangers on some pegs)/vanity area. However, this didn't affect my stay. The tea tray/mini fridge was well stocked with everything you'd need! There is very little sound proofing so it can be noisy - however when I stayed the nights were pretty quiet.
