We had a wonderful week at Albert’s Dairy. It is in an amazing location with great views alongside gorgeous sunsets and fabulous stargazing at night. The cottage itself is beautiful with everything you could possibly need and so comfortable. It has places to visit and eat within walking distance and we also really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the cottage. Highly recommended

We had a lovely 5 nights at Albert's Dairy. Accommodation was spotlessly clean and perfectly equipped for the two of us. The little extras in the welcome pack were greatly appreciated. The host, Trudie, is lovely and it was a very nice touch making the effort to pop round and say hi when we arrived. The converted farm building sits in a lovely location, very peaceful, allowing us to relax and soak in nature. Access to trunk roads is good (albeit down some narrow lanes) and we spent time exploring the sights, sounds and smells of both Suffolk and Norfolk. We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat in the countryside. We'll be booking again next time we're in the area.

We had a lovely time at this exceptional holiday home. It was immaculately clean, very comfortable and had everything we needed. It is extremely well presented with tasteful decor and lots of extras for our benefit. It is in a lovely peaceful location and it is an ideal place to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We sat in the sunshine on the garden chairs each day after exploring the nearby places like Southwold and Aldeburgh etc. Thank you to Trudie for welcoming us - we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again if holidaying in the area in the future.
