Beautiful old thatched property in rural Suffolk. It is meticulously maintained by the staff, who are unfailingly friendly and welcoming. Lovely Bar and Restaurant serving hearty breakfasts and an excellent daytime/dinner menu.

We stayed here for one night whilst doing the National Road Rally on our motorbikes and arrived aching and soaking wet after 300 miles of rain. Area - the pub is in a really quiet, lovely village. Parking - Plenty of free parking on a gravel (but well compacted) car park opposite the pub. Staff - Management seem to have got their recruitment spot on as every member of staff we came across from check in to serving food were so friendly, helpful and always had a smile! Food - Both dinner and breakfast were great. I'm both gluten and dairy intolerant...they have a menu for both, so I had plenty of choice and they even have a separate gluten free fryer. I didn't get ill, so they must be pretty good at food segregation in the kitchen and the food even came out with little GF / DF flags which was very reassuring. The room - this is where it went downhill a bit. Bathroom was great with a big bath with a shower over. Tea and coffee supplied in the room and even a bottle of water each. There was also a large standing fan in the room. However, the room smelled like there was cigarette smoke in the fabric of the room (certainly not recent smoke, but like it was ingrained). All my clothes have had to go in the wash since I got home. The bed had a lovely topper on it, but the mattress was long past changing as it dipped really badly and gave us both a bad back. If they sorted those two things, I'd have said it was the perfect stay.

This was the second time I stayed here, the staff are very friendly and helpful the chef even came in early one day so I could have breakfast. The food is outstanding and the service is 2nd to none.

staff were exceptional.

Staff were excellent, no issues but rooms very dated and tired. We did, however, enjoy our stay.

Nice location and convenient parking, single room was very small for the price, breakfast very good

If you want a traditional pub stay with proper home cooking then stay here.

Have stated a few times before over a number of years - always good - a proper village pub with excellent service, food and beer - I intend to continue staying here when in the area.

Great pub and had its Old charm which we liked. The staff were all so lovely.

Lovely food, friendly staff.

Excellent staff.

Was a last minute find as the place we had booked had closed down so i looked and found this gem of a place definitely recommended to anyone especially if you have a dog 🐕 as its a dog friendly place. Food was amazing and drinks was good too.. all round excellent 👌 👏 👍

The property was lovely oldie worldie Staff were very friendly Roast dinner let it down was worst I’ve ever had

The staff are wonderful,so attentive,always greeting with a smile.ambience,perfect in pub.perfect stay.

On the plus side, warm friendly atmosphere, nice happy staff in a beautiful pub ,a great pleasure being there for 2 nights. The minus is room 27 above the gents with a noisy air hand dryer going off every few minutes in the evening.

Have stayed several times over about 6 years - always good food and beer and friendly efficient staff - lovely location - a proper traditional English pub - I recognised local customers from previous stays so they keep coming back as well. I would highly recommend.

Lovely Pub. Nice welcome. Very clean. Mixed opinions on food, some really good, some less so. Would stay again.

Everything about our stay was first class. All the staff without exception were very welcoming and friendly and could not do enough for us to make our stay enjoyable. The food was also a very high standard. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful property with very friendly staff. They were great with my kids. The beds are rather old and the sofa bed provided was not comfortable for my kids.

Lovely old pub (low beams!) with really friendly staff.

Enjoyed my stay. Everybody very friendly and helpful.

Would recommend it to anyone it was comfortable clean the food was excellent and staff great

The staff were friendly and helpful. My room was clean with tea coffee and water. The windows opened wide which was great as it was very hot. A fan was provided in the room. There was lots o choice for breakfast though a muesli or bran flakes would have been nice. Times for evening meals were flexible and the menu was good. Even birthday cake and happy birthday sung !

Stayed here twice before, for a bike event, wanting somewhere relaxing to rest after event with good food and a few well earned beers - has hit the spot on each occasion. Traditional pub in a lovely setting, friendly staff and good beer - what more could you want!

Beautiful pub, in a lovely area. Staff were very friendly and accommodating and went above and beyond to assist. Would definitely stay again.

A wonderful stay was had at this place which offers so much charm. My room had everything I needed and the shower was just right after a long day. Nearby are the Thornham Walks which provided a tranquil and very scenic route which covered over 4km so I got me steps in. With the location being relatively remote, I decided on eating there and was not disappointed in the slightest. The three course meal was of a high quality but very reasonably priced, as was the breakfast the next morning. The staff were all very courteous and helpful and made me fell very welcome

A good peaceful stay with excellent helpful staff...thank you!

Unique, quirky pub, fabulous food. We stayed and our room was superb. Oozed character, all original features including slanted floors. All added to the charm of the place. Staff were friendly and hugely attentive. Would definitely return.

Cosy place, lovely staff, beautiful bar area and a cracking breakfast.

Room comfortable, food good, Staff efficient and friendly. Nothing to dislike

Delighted to stay here again. Landlord Tom and his team make this a very welcoming, friendly and relaxing place to stay and / or have a meal. Even though it’s popular and can be busy for meals I’ve never known it feel crowded or the staff less than cheerful and helpful. If your staying here there’s always a table for you but if not it’s probably best to book ahead. The rooms are comfortable and nicely kept (room 21 is our favourite), serviced each morning. The Four Horseshoes is a delightful old timber framed building in a quiet spot with country walks on the doorstep. There’s easy access to the A140, the nearby town of Eye is charming and Thornham Magna itself is well placed for exploring the Suffolk countryside and towns. All in all just about the best pub-hotel I know! Looking forward to visiting it again.

Lovely accommodation and bar/restaurant. All staff very welcoming.
