Guests that stayed at this property said
There is insufficient information in the reviews to accurately assess the cleanliness of the property.
The property is set in a peaceful countryside location with wildlife sightings, though some guests have noted road noise and difficulty with directions. The obscured property sign and high hedges have been mentioned as minor drawbacks.
Guests find the bedroom comfortable with a lovely view and enjoy the spaciousness of the property. However, issues with heating control and a mattress size discrepancy have been noted, affecting the overall comfort for some.
The property is well-furnished with a spacious kitchen and comfortable Eames chair. However, guests have reported maintenance issues with heating, a slippery shower, and a lack of blinds for privacy. The small TV size and lack of certain kitchen items like a cafetiere have also been mentioned.
The provision of a welcome pack indicates thoughtfulness, and guests have been inspired by the property's design. However, it is politely noted that such gifts are not guaranteed and may vary.
About this property

The delightful exterior of this property welcomes you to make yourself art home, a building with blue painted windows, frames and a semi-circular glass extension. Relax after your journey in a unique seating area with a stylish blue sofa, a quirky coffee table, table and chairs, wooden walls and flooring and a semi-circle of glass overlooking the garden, creating a tasteful space for guests to enjoy a glass of your favourite beverage of an evening. The kitchen/diner is stunning, with eye catching red cupboards settled across an impressive contemporary kitchen, stocked full of amenities, and contrasting with the traditional tiled floor to create a fantastic space for guests to cook together. Refresh in a tasteful bathroom before resting in the king-size bedroom with purple décor and storage for your belongings and a writing desk. In the warmer months, make use of the open patio where a table and chairs overlook the countryside beyond. Peasenhall enjoys a range of countryside walks for guests to explore, with wonderful views and abundant wildlife, and afterwards why not rest in one of the local cafes and enjoy a cup of tea and homemade cake? Try out local produce in the village’s independent shops settled within a picturesque town centre and stock up on essentials at the local convenience store.

Luckily my dog is old and wonât wander far but I wouldnât want to risk a more lively dog. The windows around the sitting room leave one feeling a bit vulnerable and could do with blinds. A mirror (which appears to have been asked for before) would be a good addition as would a larger tv which is far too small for such a big room. Having said that the property is well maintained and furnished. A very nice welcome pack.

However, the advert says it has "some" road noise. Well, the road noise continued all night and was difficult to sleep (heavy traffic at 3am!!!). The shower is very slippy when used and is a real hazard especially if you have mobility issues like my wife. The mattress on the bed was too small for the frame. I had to wash the pans and kitchen utensils before use. There are no blinds to the living area which makes privacy non existant and also cannot keep the area cool. The tv is really small and useless in such a big space. Certainly will not be going back there!!!

Maybe mention you don't have a cafetiere in the listing. We were very inspired by the space and will use some ideas in our own self build. A really comfortable, practical, and beautiful place. Good location to nice areas of Suffolk.
