It’s a beautiful property, being a country farm house located in a remote and peaceful rural location with a fine pub only minutes walk away. We had lots of space to spread indoors and the garden was really large. Perfect for a dog to prance around in freely and securely. This was also a fantastically peaceful place to sit and enjoy the weather. Indoors had an excellent stock of books and board games too, which was an added bonus. The beds were soft and comfortable. The house was very clean and tidy upon arrival too. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment and appliances all of which were easy to use We particularly enjoyed the little arrival gift bag of milk and goodies. Thank you. The house is an excellent base for walking, with footpaths leading to the beach, across some spectacular countryside, from the front gate. We mixed eating out and cooking in over our weeks stay. The Eels Foot Inn (uber convenient being around the corner) has a great menu and fine ales and wines. There’s also numerous great foodie pubs within a short driving distance. We particularly enjoyed The Poachers Pocket at Saxmundham. All in all, a very peaceful and relaxing Suffolk holiday home.

Wonderful traditional cottage in a stunning location. The cottage is beautifully wonky, with beamed ceilings, mixed floor levels and low doors, set in a beautiful lawned garden. (Car access to the parking is very tight). Within a very short stroll to the fabulous Eels Foot pub and a short walk to Minsmere reserve and the Suffolk coast. An absolute vision for visitors looking for that rural idyll.
