Offering glorious views across the open rolling countryside from almost every window, it would be hard to find a cosier home-from-home that perfectly blends charming characterful features with space and style, nestled in a lively location that’s a playground for outdoor activities, perfect for families craving an unforgettable Suffolk escape.

Charm and character follow you everywhere you look at this countryside retreat, from the roaring wood burner housed inside an exposed brick fireplace beside comfy sofas in the cosy lounge/diner to the exposed timber beams in the stylish kitchen offering plenty of room to rustle up a locally sourced feast. Retreat upstairs to retire to any of the three beautifully presented bedrooms which feature a calming colour palette and stunning views that’ll send you into a peaceful slumber. Soak up rolling rural views by dining alfresco on the rear patio in the enclosed lawned garden; children will love playing on the swing on the lawn at the front of the cottage, which links to a public footpath that leads to the banks of the River Stour.

Holbrook is a charming village on the north shore of the River Stour Estuary, situated within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Beauty which offers beaches, boating and birdwatching. From your doorstep, explore the network of footpaths and bridleways on foot, on two wheels or with four-legged friends in tow; there are some excellent scenic walks along the Rivers Stour and Orwell. On the edge of the picturesque Constable Country, uncover the natural beauty of East Anglia by exploring the Stour Valley and Dedham Vale 11.5 miles away, perfect for cycling, walking and bird watching. Enjoy an action-packed adventure at Alton Water Reservoir 3 miles away, offering a variety of water sports including kayaking, windsurfing, sailing and paddleboarding.

Lovely cottage in a quiet, secluded area. Pretty gardens, the children enjoyed the swing ball, tree house and swing. The host was wonderful, very accommodating and helpful and left us a tasty hamper of local goodies. The cottage has everything you need for your holiday, we felt very relaxed and at home. Lots of lovely places to visit in the area. Read moreIf you have children, Id recommend Jimmys Farm and Colchester zoo. Thank you to the owner. Hide
