At Moat Hill Farm we offer our guests old fashioned value for money, a warm, friendly, yet unobtrusive service in comfortable, clean and well appointed accommodation that will enhance any length or type of stay. We enjoy what we do and our constant aim is to give our guests a pleasant and hospitable experience.

Located on the edge of the Mid Suffolk village of Westhorpe, (once home to Mary Tudor, Queen of France and Duchess of Suffolk), Moat Hill Farm is set in quiet countryside and the farmhouse is all that now remains of a dairy farm of the same name.

Specific directions to Westhorpe and Moat Hill Farmhouse from local trunk roads are best given at booking.
