An immaculate property, well looked after with excellent facilites. Situated in the centre of Dedham but with that rural feel made it ideal for local shopping and eating out. Really nice countryside and a very nice walk to Flatford Mill alongside the River Stour. There is only one allocated parking spot but other parking available in the village. DRead moreog owners need to be aware that the property is not dog secure. However, I would have no hesitation in staying at the property again. Hide

We have just had an excellent week at the cottage. Very well equipped with everything, lovely fluffy towels and comfortable beds. The property is so central in Dedham, short walk to the pubs and shops and nice caf for breakfast at the top of the lane. Nice walks within easy reach of the cottage to the river and Flatford Mill. We had 2 cars between Read moreus and parked in the designated spot at the side and in the arch with no problem. Nice sunny garden area to enjoy for lunch or a drink. Hide

Lovely cottage, well appointed and in an excellent location. Back garden isnt secure from a pet point of view so please bear that in mind for 4 legged friends that may wander!

Beautiful house, obviously recently updated, fantastic location in a lovely village, all in easy walking distance to local shops, amenities and village pubs. We very much enjoyed exploring the area. Would definitely recommend the house and location to friends.
