The room and location were fantastic. Lovely views and not a long walk to the town centre
it is a very pretty village. It has a tearoom and a very efficient well stocked little shop. We walked to Dunwich and back and there are different walks in most directions from the village. The Crown was busy but very welcoming. We ate at the Crown the first evening and at The Ship at Dunwich the second evening, We love both places even though they have such different atmospheres. Westleton is well placed for a drive to Southwold or Walberswick one way or Aldeburgh the other and is a bird watchers dream location, I would guess.

Very quiet village, if you've seen The Holiday then this is very much like it 🤔😉
Two pubs, one very local, the other very chilled. Both serve a decent range of beers and great food and both really recommended
Ideal location for exploring this part of the world 👍

Decoration a little tired, restaurant good, bar a little...
Decoration a little tired, restaurant good, bar a little uncomfortable. Garden was OK. Staff well trained and professionally pleasant but no real engagement and you always felt they were just doing their job. Parking at its limit, so sometimes you had to park on the road. Only one disabled parking spot near the hotel entrance - three other spots adjoining but none marked as disabled so had to park further away from hotel and room. The food was good - breakfast is a little expensive but it is freshly cooked so it probably was worth the money if you had everything! I am not sure I could manage to do that every day. Little ventilation in the cottage rooms so they are unbearable if the weather is hot. Facilities are good, including the option for fresh milk. Attention to detail is sometimes lacking - towels placed in the bath for replacement were not replaced but were just put back on the towel rail. We stayed 4 years previously and although it was a little tired then too we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the staff were genuinely friendly and interested in you - we wanted to like it this time too, but it was disappointing. This could be a very good hotel with a little more attention to the decor, lighting of rooms and improvement of the gardens.

The free easy to access Wi-Fi.
The free easy to access Wi-Fi. The extremely friendly doggie facilities, including the purchase of posh pooch treats.The food was also very good. The king size bed was more comfortable than our bed at home!
The nearby beaches were very accessible by car. The local walks from the establishment were varied & lovely.

Really cosy guest areas and first class dining room.
Really cosy guest areas and first class dining room. Food is top quality but some items slightly expensive (the £28 steak could have been of better quality - the mousse desert was expensive at £11 - everything else was reasonable priced but all their deserts could be cheaper) Staff were first class. Rooms were very clean and beautifully presented. Ours was a tad dark in decor and painted walls (Robin room) but bed was very comfortable and plumbing was first class with gushings of hot water.

Small village with a big heart.
Small village with a big heart. Locals were very friendly and helpful. There is a village shop which is well stocked, there is a pub and a hotel both of which are dog friendly. The location is excellent with good walking trails from the village and it is just a short drive to the beach. Would certainly return
Lovely two night June midweek break to recharge batteries, met by owner Barbara who was lovely and this quirky Apple Loft is set in beautiful grounds that as a guest you can use. Blessed with lovely weather and enjoyed a bottle of wine in the garden prior to a lovely meal at the nearby Crown. Comfortable accommodation with lots to do locally, spent almost a day at Minsmere and visited some old haunts. Pleasure to stay and if you are thinking of booking for a short break would recommend Westleton and the Apple Loft…..thank you Barbara
It's a good location for seeing the coast for walking and sightseeing.. The Westleton Crown has very good and quirky accommodation all tastefully done and the beds are really comfortable... The garden area is exquisite and the conservatory is really lovely for eating... What really made our little break was the staff... Everyone was very helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble... Brilliant stay... Will definitely be staying there again...
Thanks... Thomas Brown
this is the 3rd time my wife and i have stayed at the apple lodge for a weekend break , and it is as brilliant as usual , barbara and phillip are excellent hosts always have time for a chat , they run the fox inn in darsham which is brilliant for good food , the white horse inn which is just a 5 minute walk away also does great food , we love the surrounding area southwold , aldeburgh , and of course westleton itself , will be back again next year .
The Crown is in a lovely location in Westleton village, with Dunwich just a few minutes drive away. An old inn, refurbed several times in the years we have been going there. Quite like the contemporary dark green designs of the public areas. Bedroom stylish and comfortable.
The staff are delightful and helpful. Food is good quality, though not exceptional. Breakfast varied in offer and was generous, though at the price that’s to be expected.
Westlington is an ideal spot for exploring this part of Suffolk. There is a good pub serving excellent food close by and the B&B is close to RSPB Minsmere, wonderful heathland and the Suffolk coast.
Oliver and Kate are excellent hosts who go the extra mile to make you feel welcome and have everything you need. There is a choice of freshly cooked breakfasts, all of which are excellent.
Argyll House has a great location in Westleton, which is an attractive village with 2 good pubs and lovely heath and coast walking nearby. The highlights included the breakfasts (big choice and all utterly delicious), very spacious room (kingfisher), powerful shower and comfy bed. Kate and Oliver were welcoming but not intrusive. Would love to stay again.
Great location for walking in the Suffolk countryside. A perfect base for exploring. Westleton Heath across the road, five mins car journey to Dunwich Heath and Minsmere.
Good covid controls by owners and friendly and helpful before the stay sorting the keys etc
Wonderful breakfast, Kate and Oliver were extremely welcoming and made us feel most at ease from the outset. The village of Westleton was ideally situated for exploring the local area for places to eat and visit.
This was at least the 5th occasion that we have stayed at The Crown and while the management have changed over the years, the high quality of service, food and accommodation have never wavered.
