Sister Hotels In East Anglia That Stand Out From The Crowd

The perfect blend of old and new, traditional and modern, has proved to be a winning combination at two rather special hotels in East Anglia, attracting guests for weekends breaks and those looking for an extraordinary venue for business meetings, conferences and weddings.

Just a short distance from the fine city of Norwich lies one of the two hotels, Barnham Broom with truly outstanding facilities and warm, welcoming staff. Ideally situated this first-class hotel allows guests to explore Norwich with its magnificent cathedral, Norman castle and extensive shopping plus the Norfolk Broads and beautiful coastline.

The hotel itself has much to appeal to visitors and brief look at the website gives a taste of what can be expected – and you certainly won’t be disappointed. Guests staying at the hotel can take full advantage of the excellent leisure facilities, that include two championship golf courses and a health and leisure centre with a well-located swimming pool overlooking the grounds.

After working up an appetite, the excellent two AA rosette restaurant is the perfect place to dine. A wonderful selection of carefully prepared dishes, made from locally sourced produce will be waiting to tempt you before heading off for a wonderful night’s sleep in a beautiful bedroom.

Cross the border into the rolling countryside of Suffolk where Barnham Broom’s sister hotel can be found in Newmarket, the home of British Horseracing. Bedford Lodge Hotel was voted best Suffolk Hotel 2006-2007 and driving up to the impressive, white country hotel with its beautifully kept gardens gives as inkling as to why it has gained its excellent 4-star rating and unblemished reputation.

Modern, chic and stylish are all accurate descriptions of the hotel’s carefully designed interior, from the reception through to the bedrooms, restaurant and meeting rooms. Paying careful attention to detail, yet maintaining a home from home feel makes a stay at Bedford Lodge Hotel extra special.

Leisure facilities are also first-class, with the hotel’s own fitness centre, The Edge, like that at Barnham Broom, with state of the art gym and relaxing sauna and steam rooms. One-to-one training sessions are also available for those wishing to make the most of their leisure time. And for food lovers, mouth watering menus and exquisite wine lists are the order of the day in the award-winning Orangery Restaurant, adding to the luxurious Bedford Lodge experience.
