"A Wonderful Jewel of a Hotel in a Beautiful Location With Food to Simply Die for. Fabulous!"
This is a wonderful place to visit for all ages for a romantic getaway or a relaxing break. The Sunday evening stay offer for bed, breakfast and evening meal is tremendous value for money and would make a wonderful gift. I loved the intimacy of this small but beautiful Hotel and of course, the food is out of this world! We will be back soon! Read less

"One of our favourites"
The Mistley Thorn is one of our favourite haunts. This was our 5th visit and it didn't disappoint - great food, excellent, friendly staff, lovely rooms and the most comfortable beds in any hotel I've ever visited. There is noise from the road at the front but this problem is bein gaddressed by the owner.
