4 Bed Cottage in Walpole

About this property

Host a truly special getaway for a group of friends or family at this four-bedroom countryside cottage with an outdoor heated swimming pool, characterful original interior features like wooden beamed ceilings and inglenook fireplaces, plus traditional country-style decor. Surround yourself with nature and stay just a short drive away from the Suffolk Coast and quaint seaside towns.

Step inside the spacious and homely open-plan kitchen/diner to discover a wooden-beamed vaulted ceiling, farmhouse-style fitted units and a dining table which sits next to a wall of glass where patio doors slide open onto the garden. Continue into a bright and airy sitting room with patterned decor and neutral-toned walls with a sofa and armchairs in front of the fire. Additional seating and another wood burner can be found in the snug which is decorated with calming greens and reds. Completing the ground floor is a utility room, a separate WC, a family bathroom plus a twin bedroom. Upstairs is another family bathroom plus three bedrooms – two doubles and a super-king-size with an en-suite. Outside is a large wrap-around garden with two ponds, a heated swimming pool plus a herb garden.

During your stay in the Suffolk countryside, the nearby rural village of Bramfield (1 mile) has a cosy gastropub if you fancy a night off from cooking. Head into the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to discover the expansive sand and shingle Dunwich Beach (8 miles) for a relaxing day by the sea. Near here is the RSPB Minsmere nature reserve (8.5 miles) – so bring your hiking boots for a stroll around the lagoons and coast. Discover the historic architecture of Aldeburgh (15.5 miles). Southwold is 10.5 miles away and is home to an abundance of independent eateries and shops.
