Everything about this b&b is excellent, I'd definately recommend it to anyone. We were made to feel so welcome, the rooms are to a high standard and very comfortable. It was nice relaxing in the living room and we were made to feel as though we could treat it as our home. Breakfast was delicious, couldnt have asked for more.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Home from Home Guesthouse in Leiston. We were recommended by a friend and were not disappointed! The hostess Lisa was extremely helpful and friendly and I could not fault our stay. The breakfast in the morning was delicious, freshly made with fresh eggs straight from Lisa's hen house. Very cosy and quiet and a... More

I booked on Easter Friday for Easter Weekend, so was very lucky that some other customers had cancelled at this B&B. Lisa was very accomodating, taking us and our 2 1/2 yo son. The B&B is great, really well finished, Lisa is really trying her utmost to make you feel welcome and comfortable. The 2 rooms we had rented were... More

We had just a few days recently to spend in Suffolk in this really lovely extended townhouse, and the welcome and genuine friendliness we received will ensure our return. Also, those wonderful English breakfasts are worth the trip alone ! I know everyone says it, but we really do want to come and stay here again: there's lots to see... More

I recently started a contract in the area and this BnB was recommended to me by another BnB in the area. The welcome from Lisa and her partner John was warm and friendly. The room I was in was warm, very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It had an ensuite but not a shower, but this didn't pose any problem as... More

Good sized, very clean room, though with shared bathroom. Excellent traditional English breakfast. Good value and would certainly stay there again. Leiston isn't as fashionable as Aldeburgh, but it's just up the road and much better value!
