Switch off from the everyday and enjoy the blissful coastal scenery, foodie locations and cosy pubs when you stay at this picture-postcard cottage in Orford, Suffolk. After a day of adventure, return to your welcoming cottage for six to soak up the sun on the rear patio or curl up by the wood burner.
Step inside this charming brick cottage and feel instantly at home in the open-plan ground floor, where a double-sided chimney adds warmth and character to the comfortable lounge and dining area. Stylish, modern furnishings complement the rustic textures, making it a restful spot to catch up on some reading or tune into your favourite shows. The light and fully equipped kitchen sits at the room's rear and boasts everything needed to make dishing up a breeze. Tuck in around the wooden table or carry your plates out to the pretty secluded patio. The bedrooms are as tranquil as the rest of the property, with organic colours and exposed beams, offering the perfect night's sleep no matter which of the three you settle into. In the morning, freshen up in the ground-floor bathroom or upstairs shower room, and relax in the enclosed front garden with a piping hot brew and freshly baked pastries from the nearby bakery.
Orford is a fantastic choice for a stay in Suffolk, thanks to its peaceful atmosphere, superb seafood, and its rich history, which can be found at Orford Church and Castle. The walking in the area is second to none, with a wealth of trails along the coast or perhaps venture out to RSPB Havergate Island (1.5 miles), where you may get the chance to spot the Black-tailed Godwit or the Avocet. Enjoy long strolls along the shingle seafront, tuck into fish and chips or mooch around the independent shops at Aldeburgh (12 miles).
