I am sorry to here that this reporter found their lunch very disappointing. Especially given the thanks they gave as they left and the fact that the slop was eaten and not sent back. A couple of points; 1. There were four vegetarian dishes on the menu. Antipasti. Jerusalem Artichoke Soup. A Bruschetta of Cannellini Beans, Roast Tomateos, Ceps, Baked...

Booked the Sun as a country treat, 2 nights BB and evening meal. Slightly scuffed and squeaky old pub, but our room (Wards) is spacious.has deeply cossetting bed and power shower,and some elegant touches. staff were, without exception, welcoming and enthusiastic. Breakfast ticked all the boxes, with good coffee, fresh juice, lovely breads and jams. BUT. Dinner on both nights... more

We met in the cosy lounge off the bar and next to the wonderful fire where we had drinks and nibbles before going to our large, comfortable round table with plenty of room for 9 (or more). The food leaned towards Italian but all the produce, meat, fish and cheese appeared to be sourced locally. The atmosphere and the waiting... more

This is our fifth year of visiting The Sun and, yet again, we weren't disappointed. This is a beautiful spot to visit and a great place to stay. Fantastic walks followed by R&R at The Sun. The rooms are spacious and quirky, with nice attention to detail, such as the handmade toiletries, the magazines in the bathroom and the eclectic... more

Finally i have stumbled upon a place that seems to have it all, Great food, Great service and all in beautiful surroundings. The menu sounded delicious and it was well balanced with a strong Italian theme, definately something for everyone. It took us ages to decide what to have knowing that whatever I chose I would end up with plate... more

Amazing we ve found a regular place to eat and stay. This is the first place we have stayed with our 3 year old daughter that actually catered for a family with small child. We live in London and Dedham is about 1 hour from us and directly off the A12. The staff including manager Rebecca were incredibly friendly and... more

We entered the restaurant just before 2 to be told that no tables were available in the fairly empty restaurant, so we had to eat in the bar. There were tables set and several people came in, but there was plenty of space There were quite a number of staff, but all seemed vacuous, or looking that they didn't have... more

I am very sorry to hear that your experience of lunch here on Sunday was not to your satisfaction. I am sorry that the kitchen sent out the incorrect dish but it was rectified almost immediately. It is our normal practice to offer something to make amends for mistakes and again, I am sorry that this was not done. At...
