Read All ReviewsLavenham is a real feast for the eyes with so many beautiful buildings in their original state. It is a well researched and maintained property. Being disabled I couldn’t access the upper floor but there was a video I could watch which was good. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Even the garden at the back is worth a look with the lock-up and mortuary! there is a cafe with very good coffee too. the exhibition is across three floors so access for disable could be an issue other than to the ground floor. Apart from it great visit.
