A lovely cottage in a quiet spot. Lovely hosts who are very welcoming. They leave a welcoming basket with local products. Very tasty. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage. A good place to unwind and chill out. Suffolk countryside have flat landscapes with big skies. Don't miss out on it. A wonderful place to explore if you love walking. There are a lot of footpaths that lead to other villages that are more remote.

Absolutely beautiful cottage in a quiet idyllic village on the Suffolk Norfolk border. A short drive to Southwold, Aldeburgh and Lowestoft seafronts.The owners live next door but leaving you to enjoy the peace and quiet however are always there if needed for anything and the welcome pack of eggs, bread, milk and homemade jam was superb.Can’t fault this cottage at all as everything you needed was there, comfortable bed, good shower and washing machine👍Looking forward to going back soon.Superb 👍
