Ideal base for exploring Suffolk & beyond. Local town of Woodbridge well worth a visit. Sutton Hoo, Snape Malting, Southwold, Bury St. Edmunds are all within easy reach & well worth a visit. Lovely cottage & large peaceful garden. Very friendly & knowledgeable hosts, excellent welcome pack. Beautiful area so hopefully we will return

We feel that what we found in Garden Cottage, at The Brambles, would not have been possible to improve upon. The accommodation was faultless, the welcome pack was better than expected and although the location is far from the madding crowd it was the quietest we have ever experienced in many many years.Probably less than ten vehicles a day passing the gates.
