Set off for a romantic escape in Suffolk surrounded by tranquil countryside near the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Feel at home in this charming and characterful property with original features like wooden beamed ceilings and an exposed brick fireplace plus traditional cottage decor. Spend your time exploring the nearby nature reserves with Fido and relaxing on the expansive pristine beaches.

Step inside the entrance hall and continue into the cosy lounge with warm neutral tones and soft seating in front of the SmartTV and wood burner. Cook a special meal for your other half in the homely kitchen/diner with a wooden ‘U’-shaped fitted kitchen plus a table and chairs. Additional seating can be found in the bright and airy sunroom with romantic decor with pink hues. Also on the ground floor is a bathroom. Climb the cottage-style stairs to reach the first floor with a comfortable double bedroom with a quirky slanted wooden beamed ceiling. Outside is a rectangular garden with furniture.

Experience a quiet countryside lifestyle while staying in the small village of Great Bealings – where you’ll have rural walking routes from your doorstep. The historic waterfront town of Ipswich is 6.5 miles away and is ideal for a day of shopping, exploring art galleries and dining out at the riverside cafes and restaurants. Head into the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to discover the winding River Deben with scenic viewpoints all the way along it to the seafront – like Stonner Point (7 miles). Immerse yourself in nature at the RSPB Boyton and Hollesley Marshes (11.5 miles) or go for a dip at the all-year-round canine-friendly Shingle Street Beach (11.5 miles).

A very comfortable and roomy cottage for two, in a very quiet village location. Note the bathroom is on the ground floor; night-time visits require negotiating a steep staircase and a low bedroom doorway. Anyone over 5ft 6in should take care!

The cottage is generally very comfortable and atmospheric and in a beautiful and peaceful part of the world . There are lots of lovely places to visit but you will need a car as the village itself has no amenities. Just a note of caution to anyone 6 foot or over. the shower over the bath is built into the eaves so height is compromised and you wouRead moreld probably struggle to shower comfortably. Hide
