  • The Longbourne Family

    Our best moments during our stay: Running along the coastal path with family members - exhilerating! A special place for bonding and being unlocked with our special family. A wonderful holiday in an incredible house. We enjoyed every second and have created many memories. An amazing experience and special time spent with the whole family. I have absolutely loved the snooker table and have slowly improved my skills. The memories made here will last forever. A marvellous place to spend time with family. Such a relaxing village. Don't miss The Meare at Thorpeness.

  • The Nesbitts

    A really special house - we all loved it! Thank you! We had a wonderful week in beautiful Suffolk, celebrating all being together after lockdown, and a fantastic degree result for one of us. I personally will never be any good at Kubb or billiards for that matter, but who cares, I had fun trying! Best wishes.

  • The Walkers and The Lees

    What a wonderful house. Fantastic for our party with six teenagers. Billiard table and croquet sets were well used. Suffolk has not disappointed and we hope to return soon.
