Property code: OC-GLFC

A characterful barn conversion surrounded by fields of barley and wildflowers just 2.5 miles from Kessingland Beach. A comfortable base for families and groups of friends keen to explore the Suffolk & Heaths AONB, the barn offers a wealth of features including a large sitting room, an open-plan kitchen/diner and a private patio leading to shared gardens.

This delightful barn enjoys a blend of period and contemporary features across its bright and airy layout, with exposed wood beams and brickwork catching the eye as much as colourful furnishings. Entering via a spacious hallway, you will find yourselves in the exceptional open-plan kitchen/diner, ideal for lazy brunches or dinner parties that slowly move towards the welcoming embrace of the sitting room. A nearby wet room stands ready to recharge anyone who is flagging after a long walk, with the bonus of underfloor heating to soothe tired feet. After a soak in the generous family bathroom on the first floor you can look forward to retiring to one of three spacious bedrooms: a plush en-suite king-size bedroom; a double bedroom and a twin bedroom that can be made up into a king-size bedroom on request. Enjoy a BBQ or alfresco cocktail on the private patio adjoining the cottage while youngsters play on the lawns shared with a neighbouring property beyond.  

The countryside surrounding the cottage is simply breathtaking and its bounty of wildlife can be enjoyed numerous ways. Take a group walk or bike along any one of the numerous paths and trails surrounding Gisleham (200 metres), a charming village just 2.5 miles from the sand and shingle beach at Kessingland. The vibrant seaside town of Southwold is one of many scattered across the Suffolk & Heaths AONB, offering a range of family-friendly attractions including miles of captivating shorelines.
