Lovely pub with great food and only 200 metres away from the Cottage. A must when you stay.
Pop in for a friendly pint or glass of prosecco and meet some of the locals. You might even see us in there sitting at the bar.

This is a lovely place to have breakfast, brunch or lunch - cakes are delicious. There is another new Honey+Harvey right opposite Melton Train Station (open from 6am weekdays) - this is our prefered spot, easy-to-park and only short drive too.

Food is great, nice minute steaks, cosy food and the curry is always a good choice. Definitely one to enjoy during your stay. And also very reasonably priced.

It's not just a Restaurant, it has a beautiful Cinema and they often do a fish & flicks menu which is a nice thing to do in the evening or on a rainy day. Food is exceptional and staff are very courteous. Check-out what's on they often live-stream theatre production from the west-end. Oh and it also has an ice-cream parlour. So great for an afternoon stroll.

Breakfast served from 7 am and it's good. Their generously sized kippers come from Pinney’s of Orford smokehouse. Just off the A12 so pop-in before you head off to explore the Suffolk Coast.

Drinks & Nightlife
For beer-lovers, purists and the just plain nostalgic the White Lion serves a selection of real ales straight from cask to glass on their traditional stillage. Only a handful of pubs in East Anglia still do it this way: no gas, no pumps, just a cooling jacket to maintain optimum temperature. Apparently the original and best method to ensure a perfect pint.

This is a great place to pop-in for cocktails, a glass of wine or a sneaky burger. Great hosts and they will certainly look after you. Also has a cosy open-fire during the cold evenings.

The castle on the hill, as featured in Ed Sheeran's number one hit. You might even see him playing his guitar in the local pub on the odd rare occasion. (haha) But a beautiful town, nice shops, pubs and restaurants worth the drive. Market day every Saturday also worth a visit.

Not far from the Cottage, you can find lots of local produce in this well-equipped supermarket which also has an ATM if you feel you need to get some cash. It's also close to a couple of interesting shops, including EW Revitt Butchers - the sausages are to die for - some say they are 'probably the best sausages in the world'
