Accommodation In Eastern England
We use the resources of the UK's leading on-line hotel reservations service to bring you guest reviews, secure bookings and competitive rates for hotels throughout eastern England.
As InfoBritain is a site for historical tourism we have created a special list of hotels with particular historic interest. Each hotel has been selected for its quality, and for the historic nature of its buildings, or for events that took place in or near the hotels. In eastern England you could stay at the Angel, Bury St Edmunds, where Dickens took accommodation on one of his reading tours. Or there's The George in Huntingdon, where Oliver Cromwell's grandfather lived: or The Black Boy in Sudbury named after the dark haired Charles the Second who returned to the throne following Oliver Cromwell's austere rule. Charles would come to this part of the country whenever he could, to enjoy the horse racing at Newmarket.
