Mill House Bed & Breakfast

Mill House is a charming Grade II* 500-year-old medieval townhouse 5 minutes' walk from the centre of Sudbury town with beautiful views to the River Stour and the water meadows.

Mill House is over 500 years old but has been well kept and renovated by the current owners Peter & Maria (and not forgetting our pampered pooches).

The house extends into a 100 year old cottage where the breakfast room and guest bedroom are located, this part of the house enjoys the best view of the river and gardens. Exposed close oak stud work and vaulted ceilings remind you that 500 years have gone by and Mill House still has a magical ambience. The dining room with its handmade antique furniture takes you back in time and the large inglenook fireplace in the drawing room invites you to sit by the log fire in cold winter nights enjoying a pot of tea or a well deserved drink.

The double bedrooms are large and comfortable, one with balcony with river view the other, also overlooking the river, each having a private bathroom and we have a single room is very small, suitable for a child only available by prior arrangement. The family bathroom has a Victorian cast iron bath and shower. Toiletries, hair-dryer, towelling bathrobes, cotton sheets and feather quilts or blankets all contribute to make it special for you.

Enjoy a pot of tea or coffee and home made cakes or a drink in the gardens or on the balcony or sit in the large elevated conservatory soaking in the bucolic atmosphere of the river pond and meadows with their ducklings, swans and highland cattle.

Breakfast is simple with a variety of fresh produce, fresh fruit juice, home made preserves, bread and cold meats, fruits, free range eggs, smoked salmon or haddock.

Peter & Maria, as local residents for over 25 years, have a plethora of local knowledge. There are many local sites of interest such as Flatford Mill, Christchurch Mansion, Long Melford Hall, Gainsborough House and the famous Colne Valley Railway to name but a few.
