“The Sorrel Horse Inn struck me as a genuine slice of Suffolk life, a grade two listed building with a proper pub at its heart. I particularly liked the sound of home-cooked meals using local ingredients and a garden big enough for families and events. It's handy for Ipswich and the A14, but feels like a destination in itself, especially if you have a dog in tow.”
