About the Hotel Folk:

During the 15th century Lavenham was the 14th richest town in the country, thanks to a thriving wool trade. Today, tourism is one of Lavenham's main industries which has helped create the magic that surrounds this hotel, a must-see destination and a must stay hotel for UK and International visitors. The town boasts more than 300 timber-framed buildings and can happily claim to be one of the best preserved medieval villages in the UK with The Swan sitting right at its heart.

Founded in 1996, The Hotel Folk have grown to comprise six unique and individual family run hotels, a Country Club, and luxurious Spa. Whilst all our properties are charmingly individual with their own unique personality, the thing they all have in common is the people; a community of Folk obsessed with looking after our guests and delivering a blow-your-socks-off hospitality experience.

You must be eligible to work in the UK to apply for this role - we cannot offer sponsorship.
