About this property
A 16th century farmhouse conversion overlooking six acres of idyllic grounds, The Cottage is perfect for a couple looking to explore the countryside of Suffolk. Enjoy the pretty grounds and a wildlife pond upon arrival and park off road to unpack with ease into this delightful cottage, punctuated by wooden beams and historic charm.

The kitchen is contemporary with sage cupboards and ample amenities for you to cook a romantic meal for two, which can be enjoyed at the bench dining table. As the day draws to a close, freshen up in the bathroom with slanting ceilings before cosying up in a king-size bedroom with a window sweat overlooking the grounds. Dine alfresco on the sun terrace with a view to the garden with a laid lawn which can be enjoyed by your four-legged companions.

The hedging had holes in it. There was a A road just the other side. There was also a rather large lake, looks like a pond in the photos isnât not safe to have around dogs that like to be in the water all the time could not let the dogs off in the garden without actually being on a lead. When we arrived all the kitchen equipment was piled up on the table in the kitchen. If you can call the kitchen, it was about the size of a small bathroom, they had recently revarnished all the worksurfaces these were still tacky. The grass in the garden hadnât been cut the bathrooms absolutely filthy. They were dead flies in the bath, the shower and on every single windowsill in the building , the noise from the road that was very close to the house approximately 2 1/2 away had so much traffic overnight that even though we had a four day booking and arrived at 4 oâclock on the Thursday evening and we left the building at 5 am on the Friday morning. It was absolutely appalling. Do not recommend this property to anybody . I would ask for a refund, but itâs probably a waste of time.

Low headroom inside was a bit of a surprise, especially the doorway into the bathroom. The floors aren't flat, but all that gives the property character. We thoroughly enjoyed staying there. If you like something that isn't clinical lines and ultra-modern, then this is a great place to stay. Lovely welcome pack too.

The cottage has everything you need, apart from wardrobes which should be mentioned on the description and may be the very steep stairs which is difficult for people who have mobility issues.
