Here's another excellent seaside destination from Adnams in Southwold, which proves to be a great source of delight whether for their remarkable accommodation or their superb 2 AA rosette awarded restaurant. The Swan Hotel boasts of all the modern comforts that you might expect in its 42 unique bedrooms while the Lighthouse rooms, named so because they offer marvellous views of Southwold's famed Victorian lighthouse, are an indulgence you should allow yourself, given their location and the promise of the seaside so nearby.

The restaurant offers traditional classics along with contemporary favourites with a notable French influence and typically you could expect dishes such as Loch Duart salmon sashimi with crayfish and lemon salad for starters. Move on to a main course of fillet of Dingley Dell pork, Parma ham, spiced figs, gnocchi, spinach and red wine reduction and finish with an iced pistachio parfait with plum and red wine syrup. The wine list at the Swan is extensive and has something for every taste and pocket.
