This lovely remote property is ideal for an inter-generational family stay, or a getaway with friends. It’s the perfect spot from which to explore Suffolk, go on little adventures and really bond as a unit. This cottage welcomes dogs, so you can bring your four-legged friends. You’ll be in the middle of the woods, so relish the fairy-tale feeling.

Upon entering the property you’ll find a lounge with an open fire and exposed beams for a timeless, peaceful feeling. It’s a great space for film nights or evenings of board games. The kitchen is well equipped and, like the dining room, has a view onto the garden. They’re well lit through large windows and make you feel connected to the natural world. You’ll see a family bathroom on the ground floor with a bath for long soaks. There’s a king-sized bedroom with a wooden finish and an en-suite on the ground floor, and as you head upstairs you’ll notice a super-king-size bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and a twin bedroom for the children. This property has a large garden, with a section of fenced lawn, so dogs can play safely.

You can walk around the woods straight from your front door to get some fresh air and exercise, and there are plenty of opportunities for cyclists, too. You can do several day trips or afternoon trips to attractions within easy distance of the cottage, including Benacre National Nature Reserve (3.5 miles), Africa Alive Zoo (5 miles) and Covehithe Beach (4 miles). If you need any supplies, try Wrentham (2.5 miles) for shops and pubs.

We've had a lovely time staying in your delightful cottage. We have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the area; gardens, villages, the coast, towns and countryside. The cottage was well equipped and we particularly like the welcome pack. Thank you.

We had a lovely week in this comfy, well equipped cottage. The super-king bed was a major plus! We had lovely, sunny, days out at Southwold and crabbing at Walberswick. Also enjoyed lovely meals at The Five Bells at Wrentham and The Queen's Head in Bramfield was outstanding. Sadly, the local - The Plough - was shut this week.

Comfortable cottage, well equipped. Great outdoor space in a very peaceful location. Easy to travel to places of interest and only 10 minutes from the nearest beach. Fabulous welcome tray which was much appreciated.

Our stay in this beautiful cosy cottage was too short sadly but we enjoyed every minute. Such a well equipped cottage . Southwold was a joy to explore and loved our visit to the Shape Meetings.

Lovely house. Ideal location for beaches and provisions. Morrisons is 15 mins away by car or Co Op at Southwold were both useful. We really enjoyed the Forest at Dunwich after exploring the ruined Abbey and getting fish and chips at the beach cafe. A great holiday despite the cold winds. ps. Cornish Bakery in Southwold do a great pasty for lunch.
