Venture a little further and find the home to one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of all time, Sutton Hoo very close by.

Or head to National Trust Orford Ness Nature Reserve which is ranked among the most important shingle features in the world where rare and fragile wildlife thrives where weapons, including atomic bombs, were once tested and perfected. For a change of pace, head to Ipswich and have lunch or dinner on the much-photographed Marina or head into the centre for a spot of shopping. Then head back to Angel Lane, head into town for a lovely dinner or relax and unwind in the cosy living room and talk about adventures yet to come. Just perfect!

Characterful (as the estate agents would say) old terraced house. Excellent facilities generally. Shops, cafes, pubs, etc all a short walk away. Very good conservatory and smallish paved garden with plenty of planting in the borders. Anybody with mobility problems should probably look elsewhere. Some steep steps to the garden entrance and steep steps to the main bedroom. Bedrooms are upstairs and the WC downstairs. But my knees and hips are still in good shape so this doesn't bother me. Definitely would consider again if I need to do a decent stay in Woodbridge.

Angel Cottage is in a great location in Woodbridge within easy walking distance of all the restaurants, shops, pubs and walks that Woodbridge has to offer. The cottage is wonderful, there is nothing more that the owners could do to make your stay more comfortable - the bed is large and so comfy, the kitchen incredibly well equipped and for a small cottage there is plenty of room to put everything and the welcome pack was amazing! The conservatory is a lovely area to enjoy an evening drink - even in October! Thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable stay - we will definitely return.
