Nestled along a peaceful no-through road near the village church, this charming cottage in Dedham offers a wonderful base for a couple or small family to explore the surrounding countryside and picturesque coastline. Enjoy a homely atmosphere and a private walled garden when staying at this welcoming Suffolk retreat.

Step inside the cottage to a hallway, where you'll find a handy cloakroom and the staircase leading to the first floor. The cosy lounge is a perfect spot to unwind, featuring a comfortable sofa and armchair, a TV/DVD player, a beautiful feature fireplace with traditional tiling, and French doors that open out to the garden. The well-equipped kitchen/diner is ideal for home cooking, with everything you need to cook up a feast alongside a dining table for relaxed meals together. Upstairs, two inviting bedrooms await – a double bedroom and a single bedroom with an additional pull-out bed for families or friends. The stylish family shower room boasts a spacious walk-in double shower for a refreshing rinse after a day of adventure. Outside, the walled garden awaits for a quiet moment with your morning coffee, and off-street parking for one car ensures your arrival will be a breeze.

Explore the Deadham Vale National Landscape and discover the historic villages of Long Melford and Lavenham (both 17 miles), famous for their timeless beauty and appearances in television series such as Lovejoy. Traditional seaside activities await in Clacton-on-Sea (18 miles) for a day of family fun. History buffs will love exploring Sutton Hoo, Framlingham and Orford Castle (all within 30 miles), while family-friendly attractions such as Jimmy’s Farm (10 miles) offer a great day out for all. For a spot of shopping, head to Colchester or Ipswich, both within 10 miles of home.
