Suffolk in Style

Excellent base in the form of a third-generation family-run hotel close to the beach and a variety of nature reserves. First-rate bird guide. We have been with Naturetrek on many occasions - for one-day outings, short breaks, local and overseas trips. The office staff are, without fail, pleasant, knowledgeable and efficient and always try to accommodate individual requests.

The leader, Brian, has eagle-eyes, great local and general knowledge and a warm personality. The Wentworth Hotel was excellent in every respect. A third-generation family-run establishment, tasteful décor, clean and comfortable bedroom, lots of lounge areas, pleasant and efficient staff in all areas. Extensive menu and wonderful food.

The weather wasn’t great (strong winds and quite a bit if rain) but the tour leader rearranged our itinerary day by day to keep us out of the worst of it, while still finding us great opportunities for birdwatching. The hotel was very nice and the food was excellent. They had an additional vegan menu, which was so good, some of the others in our group chose to order from it. Good company, great food, beautiful landscapes and some fantastic birds.

Although just a weekend birdwatching break, this holiday had everything. A lovely hotel with attentive and helpful staff, excellent food, a friendly group and an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide who planned things perfectly. In 48 hours we spotted 96 varieties of birds between us, but the whole weekend was relaxed and very enjoyable. We even managed to dodge the showers! Highly recommended in all aspects. Friendly and helpful when I booked the holiday by phone, useful information provided beforehand so I knew exactly what to expect and what to take. My extra day's stay was even organised... (I'd assumed I'd need to sort this out myself). This was my third holiday with Naturetrek and each time I have been impressed by the detailed and thoughtful organisation.

Loved the area - and as first time birdwatchers, it was a treat to learn about the variety of birds we saw. Fabulous group and beautiful countryside.

Cliff Waller was an excellent guide and exceptionally knowledgeable about the location and its wildlife.

The accommodation was excellent and the food.

Wentworth Hotel very pleasant and food excellent. Persistence paid off with good views of Firecrest and Bearded Reedling. Access to areas normally not open to the public was of great benefit.

Entertaining guide. V. good food in the Wentworth Hotel. The knowledge, expertise and general competence shown by Cliff Waller were outstanding. I greatly enjoyed his leadership of the tour.

Cliff Waller's detailed knowledge of local reserves and habitats meant we were in the right place at the right time for a wonderful range of birds.

This is our second holiday with Naturetrek and we really enjoyed it. Cliff's local knowledge was very much appreciated - and, linked to Dan and Robin's excellent assistance and help, was a really good combination. The hotel was a very good choice - very comfortable and a great location. We'd choose to go back there. A really good holiday - thank you all.
