The cottage was very well equipped and situated in a quiet and peaceful area. Having never visited Suffolk before we found we were staying in a convenient area for exploring the many places of interest. The only trouble was a week wasn't long enough to do everything we wanted. Think we will need a second visit!

Our only issue was the access being at the back meaning walking along a narrow path past overgrown (sometimes wet) bushes teeming with midges which was not pleasant. No explanation was given as to why the front door could not be used. Otherwise we had an enjoyable stay in a lovely area.
