About this property
This well-appointed detached character cottage sits amongst beautifully landscaped gardens and offers comfortable accommodation in Hoxne, one of Suffolks prettiest villages. Woodlands is a delightfully refurbished holiday home, with ample off road parking. Upon entering, the well-equipped kitchen provides all you need to prepare family feasts, and looks over the delightful patio and gardens, which are ideal for alfresco dining on a warm summers evening. Accessed from the hallway are the cosy dining room and separate sitting room, which is adorned with an abundance of exposed beams and houses a warming woodburning stove recessed into a brick mantle, creating a cosy cottage feel all year round. Upstairs, the family bathroom is shared amongst the three bedrooms, which include a double, a twin and a single room with an additional folding bed to create flexibility for almost every party. Hoxne is steeped in history with the local amenities just a moments stroll away, and offers excellent walking and cycling from your doorstep. With the Rivers Waveney and Dove both nearby, along with sweeping water meadows all around, and quiet lanes linking the ancient surrounding woodlands, theres plenty to discover. Alternatively, you can hop in the car and be beside the sea within the hour, with the likes of Aldeburgh and Southwold both easily accessible. This lovely cottage in a charming country village location offers guests a perfect base for discovering both the doorstep and daytrip delights of Suffolk and beyond.
The idyllic little village of Hoxne is equidistant between Thetford and Suffolk's coast. One of the county's most attractive villages, Hoxne is home to a 15th century, Grade II listed pub, a Post Office, and the streets are lined with a range of quaint chocolate box cottages. With a wealth of day trips to enjoy and plenty of wonderful walks and cycling from the door, Hoxne provides an idyllic base for a memorable Suffolk holiday.

Emma
A characterful beautiful cottage with a large enclosed garden for dogs. The cottage was well equipped and even had a separate washing and drying room. The beds were very comfortable and had lovely clean bedding. The owner has decorated the house for Christmas and left a welcome pack which was well received. On arrival we did have to clean out the cutlery draws and wash up glasses & plates. The sofa cushions were also very dirty. If you are a light sleeper this cottage would not be ideal for you as two of the bedrooms are next to a public highway in which as previous guests have said large agricultural lorries pass the house frequently from 5.30 am due to single glaze windows. The curtains are single lined which do let light in . With a change of windows & curtains and a good clean this house would be perfect!

Front bedroom curtains are thin and donât cover window so privacy is an issue, towels are old a ruff. Stair gate lock is broken so difficult to open. Vacuum cleaner smells really bad. The owner doesnât inform customers that large agricultural lorries thunder pass the property from 6.30 until late afternoon within inch of the property. DONâT EXPECT TO HAVE A QUIET STAY AT THIS PROPERTY. Plus when I complained to Sykes Cottages they informed the owner of my concerns the day before I was to leave the house. The morning I left the driveway I had a large screw in my tyre and 3 others low tyres.
