This fabulous property, situated in pretty market town Halesworth, is perfect for family or friends’ reunions. Sleeping eight across four peaceful bedrooms, this stylish property has everything you need to enjoy a relaxing stay with your loved ones close to the Suffolk coast. Spend sunny evenings sitting around the tables in either the front or rear courtyard, sipping an alfresco drink and taking in your surroundings after spending the day in town (350 metres) exploring the art centre, shops and restaurants.

The property, which sits on a row of terraces, has been decorated in a bright and airy contemporary style. Shaker units and beautiful wooden shelving and beams in the kitchen diner make it a pleasure to cook up tasty meals in, while calming neutrals and comfortable seating in the lounge invite you to curl up with a good book or your favourite show on TV. At bedtime, if you’re lucky enough to have the second-floor bedroom, take a refreshing rainfall shower in the en-suite among peaceful blue tones and stylish tiles. Then snuggle into bed – whichever room you choose, you’ll have a great night’s sleep thanks to contemporary fixtures and soft, pastel tones.

Head to Southwold (9 miles) where the stunning Denes Beach is perfect for sandcastles. There are plenty of shops to look around along with popular restaurants and pubs, and the Under the Pier Attraction will fascinate kids and grown-ups alike! For a more peaceful beach walk, head to wildlife-rich Dunwich Heath (11.5 miles) or neighbouring RSPB Minsmere (11 miles). Camel Park Oasis (6 miles) offers a great family day out where you can take camel rides and go on llama walks, while Saxtead Green Post Mill (14 miles) offers a more sedate afternoon out that you can pair with a trip to Framlingham Castle (13.5 miles).

Had the most amazing time at this cottage. Great location, beautifully done out. I dont think the pictures do it justice. The bedrooms are lovely and big , all the beds very comfy. We found the kitchen was really well equipped, with lots of glasses and mugs too. The cottage is lovely and warm. We also found the owner incredibly helpful and obligingRead more to some of our extra requests we needed to come away on holiday. Location is in lovely halesworth and we can recommend the black dog cafe for fabulous breakfasts and lunches. We will most definitely be back to this property. A real find. Hide

Six of us booked a few days break over the New Year and were very lucky with the weather. We found the cottage to be clean, warm, very comfortable, beautifully decorated and well equipped. The Christmas Tree in the lounge and welcome bottle of bubbly was a nice touch. We would have no hesitation in recommending the cottage to friends.
