Outstanding hosts, superb facilities, beautiful scenery
Mrs Heywood
We have just had the most perfect stay at the Old Dairy . Hosts could not have been friendlier or more accomodating. The Old Dairy is spotlessly clean. Very tastefully put together with fabulous attention to detail and comfort. The welcome pack was very generous and delicious and so super helpful to get through first evening and breakfast meals. Our Dogs enjoyed there welcome gifts too. The Old Dairy is situated in beautiful peaceful surroundings with lots of lovey walks. We were even treated to a fabulous walk with our host to show us where the best sunsets were to be observed. Local pub food was perfectly acceptable and a great atmosphere was enjoyed. Great beaches a short car journey away. The information folder provided by our lovely hosts was very informative. Could not recommend more highly The Old Dairy . Thank you once again for a super holiday can't wait to return.

We stayed at the cottage for a week in July with our two dogs and received a very warm welcome from the owners. Communication was good leading up to our stay and during the week. Pictures were a good representation of the property. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The welcome pack was a pleasant surprise and meant we didn’t have to rush off to find a shop. It was very peaceful and within a short drive to lots of beautiful coastal villages. Southwold, Aldeburgh, Thorpeness were well worth a visit. The dogs also enjoyed the beach at Sizewell. Snape Maltings and Orford also worth a visit. The local pubs in Laxfield were also worth a visit and good for food.
