Super little cottage located perfectly for visiting locations in the county, we loved the colour scheme (we have green in our home plus an Ikea sage green kitchen!) and loved the jungle scheme. We also loved the fact that there were walks from the door with our two little dogs.

Lovely cosy cottage with modern amenities. Enclosed rear garden and car parking available in front of the cottage. Friendly owners who live locally. We only had a few days away but did some nice walks with our dog and it was a very pleasant break away.

Lovely quiet part of Suffolk. A small amount of noise from the road at the end of the drive but not obtrusive, mainly boy racers! Property was very clean and almost looked all new.
