This delightful hideaway for two is set in the historic conservation area of Eye, a pretty market town surrounded by unspoiled countryside. The property, once a coach house, has been skilfully refurbished to create a luxurious retreat while retaining lovely period features such as exposed beams and a vaulted ceiling. Eye has independent shops, restaurants, cafes and a pub serving food, all within 0.5 miles. There are lovely walks around the town, with picturesque villages nearby, while Diss, another lively market town, is just 4 miles away.

The property is beautifully furnished in shades of blue, offset by white walls. Enter your secluded bolthole through the original stable door, with iron latches, into the spacious open-plan living/kitchen/dining area. This houses a sumptuous corner sofa, a pretty dining table and a contemporary kitchen, with double doors opening to the stable courtyard. Upstairs, the former hay loft is now a gorgeous, light and airy king-size bedroom with exposed beams and a vaulted ceiling. A streamlined shower room completes the layout. Outside, a small open courtyard with original stable block paving has patio furniture.

Eye has lots to see and enjoy picturesque castle ruins, a magnificent medieval church, and a beautiful nature reserve where you can walk through water meadows along the banks of the River Dove. Stock up at local shops, which include a chocolatier and delicatessen, and head to Thornam Walks (4 miles). The network of paths through beautiful parkland and ancient woodland includes a picnic area, a walled garden and a memory wood. Further afield, Wyken Vineyard (13.5 miles) is a 1,200-acre farm with a country store, farmers’ market and wonderful gardens., plus an excellent restaurant, housed in a restored, 400-year-old barn.

  • 1 super-king-size bedroom
  • 1 shower room with shower and WC
  • Electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, microwave, combi washer/dryer, Nespresso L’or coffee pod machine, filter coffee machine and filtered water jug

The Coach House has been very tastefully done up and benefits further from still having a relatively new and pristine feel. Alison gave us a friendly welcome and we had everything we could want in a base for exploring spectacular Suffolk for the first time. Eye itself is a quiet town with just enough amenities for convenience (and an excellent churRead morech) and is well placed for travelling to a wide variety of interesting days out. Wed definitely recommend it! Hide

Really comfortable cottage in a beautiful town. Eye is well located to visit Suffolk attractions such as Bury St Edmunds, Sutton Hoo and the Suffolk coast around Aldeburgh.

A beautiful property, very well maintained and everything you would need for a relaxing break. Thank you, Alison, for the extras, far more than a 'welcome pack'! It was lovely to meet you.

The Coach House was lovely. It is well furnished, welcoming and has everything you need for a luxurious holiday. From the delicious welcome goodies to the high quality fixtures, fittings and furniture, it was truly a treat to stay here. It is also the ideal base from which to explore the delights Suffolk has to offer. Thoroughly recommended.
