Guest Reviews

"Weavers Cottage is an absolute treasure! The character of this historic building is matched only by its comfort and attention to detail. Our children were thrilled with the bunk beds, while we appreciated the tranquil garden views with our morning coffee. The location is perfect - right in the heart of Lavenham yet so peaceful. The wood-burning fireplace made our autumn evenings magical, and having excellent pubs just a short stroll away was brilliant. We'll definitely be coming back!"
