    • Ms Watkinson

      Such a beautiful, quiet location on a working farm, not too far from Suffolk’s lovely coast. The property was very well equipped, comfortably furnished and I loved the rafters in the high ceilings, and of course, the half stable doors. Thank you for arranging a week of perfect weather, too!
