Intrigued by this week’s Hotel of the Week? It’s the perfect time to put your luck to the test, as C&TH is giving readers the opportunity to win an overnight stay there! Enter our competition now for the chance to win.
The Sun Inn, on the Essex-Suffolk border in the heart of Constable country, is a charming base from which to explore the pretty Dedham Vale. Rent a boat on the River Stour (a five-minute stroll away) or borrow bikes from the pub. The bright yellow façade of this independently-owned handsome old coaching inn beckons you inside, where thick beams and meandering wooden floors, open fires, and an elm bar (often lined with locals and their dogs) create a warm atmosphere. There are boules in the garden, magazines and travel books to read, board games to play, and deep sofas to sink into, plus seven individually decorated bedrooms with centuries-old character and sumptuous beds – the perfect place to unwind.
The restaurant’s seasonal modern British food is big on flavour, inspired by great local produce: think homemade pasta, excellent fish from East Coast day boats, local meat, fruit and veg, and game in season. Plus, there’s a stellar selection of local ales and an eclectic wine list brimming with rare finds.
Competition closes on 23 April 2026.Â
