Book Now!'This is our first visit to Suffolk and how lucky we were to book this delightful cottage. We visited Aldeburgh, Woodford, Southwold, Minsmere, Dunwich, Snape, Framlingham, Sutton Hoo and Orford, but still found plenty of time to relax in this lovely comfortable and peaceful house. Thank you for a perfect stay'
‘Great Sound System!’
‘Thank you for creating such a home from home – you have provided everything one could need and it all works!’
'Lovely family break in a cosy cottage in the beautiful Suffolk countryside, fab time had by all including Bertie the Dachsund. Despite home being only 30 minutes away we have had time to explore and made trips to Southwold, Dunwich, Ufford Park crazy golf, Orford castle, Framingham Castle, Aldeburgh and Thorpeness plus some great walks locally. Love the Rayburn and Woodburner, plentiful hot water for baths!'
'Our third year here. We love the place! The weather has been glorious - great walks and good times just sitting and enjoying the cottage. We will return'

The ground floor includes a bright country kitchen diner with seating for up to eight with a living room full of period character, with comfortable seating around the inglenook woodburner and with dining for six. Now with i-pad controlled SONOS sound system and two SMART TVs. There is also a snug room with plenty of books to lose yourself and relax. Upstairs are four bedrooms, two double rooms with wonderful views across the fields and orchard and two singles. Outside the charming courtyard garden and summerhouse catch the morning sun. There is a pet secure rear garden and a larger woodland garden to explore.
Ground Floor: Through the back door you will find yourself in the porch with lots of space to leave your boots, coats and bags. Also in here are the utility room facilities.
Kitchen: The hand made country kitchen combines traditional standards with modern facilities. It is home to a retro Smeg fridge freezer, Rayburn range oven with a ceramic hob and microwave for speedy cooking. The extending table provides family dining for up to eight. Listen to the radio on the i-pad controlled SONOS sound system while cooking or enjoying access to the garden.
Living Dining: The relaxing living and dining room is a great place to settle down on the comfortable sofas in front of the woodburner with the SMART TV, a novel, for a lively board game, or for an evening dinner for up to six at the formal dining table. Select SONOS playlist to match the mood.
Shower room: At the base of the stairs, a door leads into the shower room with W.C. and hand basin.
Snug: This small and cosy room is ideal to curl up on the sofa with a book or watch catch up on the SMART TV.
Bedroom 1: The first of two double bedrooms has been stylishly designed with an impressive vintage dutch pine dresser wardrobe with masses of storage.
Bedroom 2: This single bedroom is small but light and warm - a great bolt hole.
Bedroom 3: The second double bedroom has an ornamental brass bed frame, with chest of drawers for storage and with en suite access to the bathroom.
Bathroom: The family bathroom with striking retro tiles and bath can be accessed from the hall or from the main bedroom. There is a full length slipper bath with shower attachment, W.C. and hand basin.

Outside: The three main bedrooms have wonderful views across the village. The garden outside leads from french doors in the kitchen as well as a path around to the parking area, shared with the adjacent eco friendly Garden Lodge which is also available.
