Mrs Cheal
Wonderful cottage, beautifully sympathetic to the surroundings. A joy to stay in, a lot of equipment and extras for the dog, which was unexpected. Hot water really great, bath like a swimming pool, but lovely!! Really great location near to major towns but secluded in the woods, so quiet it was wonderful.

We had a really good week overall. The only wrinkle was having neighbour's noises to cope with. But that environment is really special. Would recommend it.

The setting of the cottage was excellent. Walks from the door, so ideal for our 4 legged companion. The cottage was very well equipped. Comfy beds. Lovely shower with plenty of hot water. Located relatively close to several attractions - Bury st Edmunds, NT properties such as Ickworth and Oxburugh.
