Blossom Cottage

About this property

Surrounded by the enchanting Suffolk countryside, Sedge Fen boasts a mesmerising mosaic of reed beds, meadows, and water channels, creating a thriving habitat for wildlife. It's a perfect spot for birdwatching, photography, and leisurely walks along the winding paths while the vibrant wildflowers in the meadows paint a picturesque landscape. The fen's serene atmosphere provides an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life with High Lodge at Thetford Forest only 11.5 miles away and offers a fun day out for all the family. The historic cathedral city of Ely is just a 12-mile drive and boasts lovely independent shops and a weekly farmers market to peruse. For those that enjoy all things aviation, RAF Lakenheath is nearby and has a public viewing area to watch fighter jets and planes in action. Bury St Edmunds is within easy reach too, just 19 miles drive and is must for your stay.

This charming single storey countryside bolthole is the ideal escape for six guests and has plenty of room to all be together. As you step inside you are welcomed into a well-equipped farmhouse style kitchen that has everything you could need for your self-catering stay. A Range oven allows for large meals to be cooked with ease and there is ample storage throughout too. Following through to the lounge/diner area there is a beautiful wooden antique dining table that can seat everyone together to enjoy scrumptious suppers, as well as two comfy sofas to curl up on and watch a great movie in front of a handy electric wood burner for those chillier evenings. French doors lead from here straight onto a large patio area and have wonderful views across the adjacent field. There are three bedrooms on offer, one with a king-size bed and en-suite shower room, a charming twin bedroom, and a lovely double with writing desk for any remote working needs. There is also a stylish family bathroom.

Outside has an abundance of space to enjoy with a large private terrace directly on your doorstep and boasts a lovely lounge set, a fire pit for toasting marshmallows, a large wooden dining table with benches and BBQ as well as a small gym with a treadmill, rowing machine and yoga mats. There is also a chest full of garden games including giant Jenga, croquet that can be enjoyed in the orchard and a full-size ping pong table. There is so much to do here, you won’t want to leave!
