About this property
Tucked away in a peaceful, traffic free location, The Chicken Shed is a beautiful 2 bedroom property surrounded by the beautiful Suffolk Countryside.
"Possibly the best rented accommodation we have ever experienced with the bonus of helpful and kindly owners". - Michael Wilson
Discover scenic Suffolk and the wider East Anglian countryside with a stay in this lovely holiday home. Although positioned on a former chicken shed site, we can assure you that the plot has received a thorough upgrade, creating an exceptionally comfortable property for four guests to call their own. With its two bathrooms and two bedrooms, the holiday home lends itself perfectly to any pair of holiday-making couples eager to relax in the garden or explore country walks in the surrounding area.
Take a step up and into this single-storey property with rooms all positioned around a central lounge, kitchen and dining room. Complete with unique features including an antique grandfather clock, this place is teeming with charm and character. Settle into an armchair for a cosy night of TV watching in the lounge or huddle around the dining table to play a board game or two. Two bedrooms are each presented with cosy interiors, carpeted underfoot and offering plenty of space for storage or getting ready. The bedrooms are served by two bathrooms, a handy wet room and an additional shower room in the utility area. Finally, the property is surrounded by an expanse of outdoor space where exciting wildlife often roams.
Situated at the end of a mile-long track on the owner’s land, it’s clear that this property is engulfed by fantastic countryside just waiting to be explored. Step out on foot and plot a route that ends in Occold (1 mile) to visit the local pub. Discover 2,00 acres of vibrant parkland at the Thornham Estate (6 miles) or embark on one of the mighty 12-mile walks that set off from here. Find further scenic beauty in nearby Eye (3 miles), a historic market town with castle ruins and local shops to browse.
