About this property

This chocolate-box cottage is surrounded by the beautiful Suffolk countryside, with endless walking and cycling tracks from your front door. The property sleeps four guests and is the perfect base for couples and small families looking to switch off from the humdrum of everyday life. You’ll be perfectly placed for exploring the Broads, with Beccles just 8.5 miles away, as well as the picturesque Suffolk coastline (13 miles).

The charming 17th-century property has been sympathetically renovated to celebrate its period features, and is decorated in a country-cottage style. The cottage is warm and welcoming, with a dual-sided wood burner between the lounge and dining room, as well as underfloor heating. The characterful lounge is a delightful place to unwind after exploring the local area, either reading a book in the armchair or watching the Smart TV/DVD. Adjacent to the lounge is the dining room, with a large table for enjoying dinner parties and countryside views from the dual-aspect windows. Completing the ground floor is the kitchen, which is decorated in delicate pastel shades and has a cute breakfast bar, and a utility room. The two inviting bedrooms and the family bathroom are upstairs. The garden occupies 0.5 acres and is a real haven of tranquillity, with pretty flowers, a large lawn, and a sunny patio with outdoor furniture.

Head into the historic market town of Bungay, just 5 miles away, to investigate the fantastic array of independent shops, pubs, and restaurants. After a potter around its pretty streets, wander down to the River Waveney for a peaceful waterside stroll. A short 13-mile journey east brings you to the breath-taking Suffolk coast. Enjoy long walks along its dramatic coast path, or spend a fun afternoon at one of the traditional seaside resorts, such as Southwold, which is just 13 miles away or Walberswick, which is also only 13 miles away.

      One of the nicest places we have ever stayed in. Breath taking when you arrive and see for first time. Photographs do not do justice to how lovely the cottage is. We loved ever minute of our week here. Not stayed in this part of Suffolk before and really enjoyed it. Lovely garden to sit in and enjoy the complete silence. Loved the homemade cake eggs from local farm, milk, teabags, and coffee pods. Well equipped cottage and bed in main bedroom was so comfy with superking bed that we are now looking at getting a larger bed at home! Lovely hosts. We have had a relaxing week here. Highly recommend.

      A beautiful cottage in a stunning garden. Very peaceful and private. We enjoyed watching rabbits and pheasants in the garden and hares in the lane. The owners have thought of everything and we will definitely be booking again.
