"What a wonderful little gem. We loved our little Milk Parlour and its secluded patio that we returned early from the beach every day to enjoy the evenings by the pond while listening to the birds. The cottage is perfect, its deco so pleasing to the eye, really neutral and quirky at the same time. Knowing that Jacqui, Nick and family are only next door adds another layer of comfort to it. Great little bank holiday. We will def return. Thank you to Jacqui and Nick for a warm personal welcome. The prosecco and chocolate brownies go a long way. Its all in the detail and you have it so right."

"Thank you for taking our very last minute booking (on the same day). Not only were we delighted to have to somewhere to stay but to arrive and see how lovely the Milk Parlour is, we felt very lucky. It had everything we needed for a home from home stay and the homemade cupcakes and prosecco were a much appreciated treat, thank you very much. Our little puppy Daisy loved your garden and it was great for us to see her run around in a safe place. We particularly liked the private terrace, relaxing in the evening. Would definitely recommend your lovely home, grounds and location for a perfect stay in Suffolk"

Outside
Milk Parlour sits next to another self-catering cottage, Red Poll Barn, which can be booked in conjunction to accommodate six guests. There's an additional holiday cottage opposite, Rookyards, which sleeps four more guests, however the living and dining areas aren't big enough for all ten guests to gather comfortably.

It’s surrounded by countryside with an abundance of wildlife including muntjac deer, bats, badgers, squirrels and many birds for you to identify from the comfort of your own private patio which overlooks the moat with garden and woodland beyond – an idyllic spot to sit with a good book or simply watch the wildlife. There’s outdoor furniture and a BBQ for you to use if you enjoy eating al fresco.

The owners are happy for you to wander around almost two acres of their stunning moated gardens and grounds. For the ultimate in relaxation, guests can bring their rods and fish for rudd and perch in the pond.

There’s a drive from the main road to the Rookyards Estate with ample parking for two cars and a path leads to the door of your accommodation. The surrounding countryside lends itself to cycling and you can store bikes under cover in one of the cart sheds.
