Utente ospite

Review Ivy House We came for three nights on a TravelZoo offer in mid October. We found it an idyllic setting and had a wonderful welcome by an energetic Carenza, one of several young staff who were equally enthusiastic and attentive. The garden room we were given was large, comfortable, very well appointed with large screen TV, good WiFi, coffee /tea maker, plenty of plugs and a great view. The thatched barn interior for evening meals and breakfasts was fantastically well restored. On the downside, our first evening meal was disappointing. There was no Caesar dressing on the chicken Caesar salad and the chef did not appreciate that substitution with plain mayonnaise does not compensate. However, Carenza, the restaurant manager handled it well, apologising, providing free coffee and taking 10% off the bill. In the evening one has to negotiate several unlit paths. Finally, the relatively new shower unit fitted to our room, without grab rail, soap dish or anti-slip floor base stickers is, in our opinion, an accident waiting to happen. Despite these criticisms, we would highly recommend this place for river trips on the beautiful Suffolk Broads and for easy access to Great Yarmouth, Norwich and Southwold.
