Mrs Molton
Nice quirky cottage, with original features, an amazing inglenook fireplace with a fabulous log burner. Fantastic location for Minsmere and the surrounding coast and countryside. Lots of fabulous pubs and local eateries. Suffolk is a lovely county and well worth a visit. Great communication with the owner was helpful.

We had a lovely stay at Stone Cottage. Fiona and family were incredibly welcoming, with lots of useful local recommendations and toys and games which our 5 year old loved. Location absolutely spot on, with beautiful views across the fields, with easily access to lots of great days out.

The cottage was very clean but smaller than the photos suggested - the table in the kitchen does not fit 6 people comfortably and the fridge is tiny for a family. The bedrooms and bathrooms are well furnished but small (especially the shower room). The garden is ok (the electricity pilon is not shown on the photos). The owner was very friendly, the location excellent and the welcome pack was great we just felt that it was a small space for a family of 6 that was made to look bigger in the photos so we were disappointed.
