Property code: OC-HDRESS

A characterful Grade II cottage in a pretty village location roughly 3 miles from Covehithe Beach, one of many captivating shorelines found along the Suffolk Heritage Coast. Offering cosy living areas and an enclosed garden, this dog-friendly cottage is the perfect fit for large families or groups of friends seeking adventures across the Suffolk Coast & Heaths AONB.

Set off the main road running into the village, this three-storey cottage has an enviable home-from-home feel, blending contemporary furnishings with exposed beams, low doorways and oak flooring. There is plenty of room for everyone in the lounge for film nights around the wood burner, while the open-plan kitchen/diner has everything foodies and their disciples need to create and enjoy memorable feasts created using locally-sourced ingredients. The family bathroom is an inviting sanctuary and stands close to an en-suite double bedroom, a second double bedroom and a separate bunk bedroom. A set of stairs on the first floor leads to an attic bedroom containing three single beds. The cottage’s attractive south-west facing garden is perfect for entertaining, and you can keep an eye out for friendly farmyard animals in the paddock beyond.

Wrentham’s pubs welcome families and four-pawed customers, and dogs are free to roam the unspoilt beach at Covehithe (3 miles). The pretty town of Southwold (4.5 miles) is home to a sand and shingle beach and Victorian pier, and is a fantastic launch pad for walks to neighbouring coastal communities like Walberswick (5.5 miles). To get closer to Suffolk’s wildlife, head to Suffolk Coast National Nature Reserve (8 miles).
