Tucked away in the heart of the Suffolk countryside lies a true hidden gem — a beautifully restored 15th-century Manor Cottage overlooking the picture-perfect village green of Cavendish. Full of history, charm, and character, this enchanting home offers the perfect escape from the rush of everyday life.

It comfortably sleeps up to four people, with an additional bedroom located in the attic for two extra guests, available for a small extra charge (please message for details). From the moment you step inside, the cottage feels like something from another world. The original beams, uneven floors, and centuries-old details tell the story of generations past, yet the space feels wonderfully welcoming and lived-in. The living area is the heart of the home, a warm, inviting room with a grand open fireplace that’s perfect for curling up beside on cooler evenings. You can imagine the fire crackling, a good book or glass of wine in hand, while you gaze out through the sash windows onto the green outside.

The house features two beautifully finished bathrooms, one of which is a stylish en-suite attached to the main bedroom. Each bedroom has been lovingly furnished to blend historical charm with modern comfort, think crisp linens, soft lighting, and plenty of character. Whether you’re waking to birdsong and church bells drifting through the window or enjoying a slow start with coffee in bed, it’s impossible not to feel relaxed here. The kitchen and dining area are equally inviting, designed for long, lazy breakfasts or cosy suppers shared with family and friends. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is here, from modern appliances to thoughtful little touches that make the house feel like a home.

Step outside, and you’ll find yourself in one of Suffolk’s most photographed villages. Cavendish is postcard-perfect, with its pastel-coloured cottages, thatched roofs, and peaceful green framed by old trees and a graceful church spire. Right on your doorstep, you’ll find two traditional English pubs serving delicious food, local ales, and a friendly welcome. Just a short stroll away, there’s also a charming tea shop where you can indulge in freshly baked scones and homemade cakes, as well as a well-stocked village shop for your everyday essentials. Whether you spend your days exploring the rolling countryside, visiting nearby market towns like Clare and Lavenham, or simply relaxing by the fire and soaking up the atmosphere, this 15th-century Manor Cottage makes a wonderful base for your stay.

It’s ideal for a romantic getaway, a peaceful family break, or a weekend away with friends. As evening falls and the village quietens, you’ll feel a deep sense of calm settle over the house. The glow of the fire, the creak of the old timbers, and the view of the green bathed in twilight create a magical setting you’ll remember long after you leave.
