Halesworth 4.1 miles. Offering guests the best of both worlds: a property bursting with original features but with all the modern home comforts any discerning traveller would expect, Onna’s Stable is situated in Sotherton near Halesworth in Suffolk. Ideal for a family, the cottage has been lovingly restored and is also pet-friendly. Giving the ease of accommodation which is spread all on one floor, Onna’s Stable is beautifully presented with a warm and welcoming living space inviting guests in, complete with a delightful seating area, stunning bi-folding doors opening outside and an attractive woodburning stove. Step into the kitchen where the cooking in this fully fitted space is a wonderfully sociable experience and the adjoining dining area is all set up ready for guests to enjoy delicious meals together. Should the sun be shining (which it does a lot in Suffolk!), you can enjoy time alfresco in the sunny courtyard which has patio furniture and outstanding views over the surrounding countryside. Come bedtime and there are two sumptuously appointed bedrooms, and make sure to find time for a long soak in the roll-top bath; this is what holidays are made of! Sotherton is a gorgeous rural town with the market town of Halesworth just a few miles away and well worth a visit.

Comfotable beds. Unusual photos, paintings and posters everywhere. It was good to see the horses, chicken family and the peacock. The peacock thought it was a good idea to sit in our garden and sunbathe there. Beware of poo in the garden from him. The cottage is very near lots of towns, villages and seaside areas so dosn`t take long to visit them each day. The signal is not good in this area but there is wifi in the cottage.

and then had the audacity to offer a 20% discount..... well what a inconsiderate and money grabbing duo you and the owner are. The property was unfit for purpose and was evidently not checked to be in working order before our wedding weekend arrival .
Trish
Kitchen well equipped. Mediterranean garden was a pleasure to sit in for breakfast . The artwork is very interesting. We enjoyed the wildlife . Peacock , barn owl and the chickens . Wonderful location for latitude . We cycled in and avoided all the queues. Sorry we had to leave before the end of our week as we all had commitments. Just wondered as booking said welcome pack and guest book mentioned one . However not for us !!! This didnât detract from our stay . Book early if you want it for latitude next year
