About this cottage rental
Fantastic fully refurbished cottage in the heart of one of Suffolk’s prettiest villages with stunning views of the Box Valley. One end of the cottage has a large modern kitchen and dining area with direct views and access to a beautifully relandscaped garden, and at the other is a wonderfully comfortable and cozy sitting room with log burner. From the well-furnished bedrooms that share an immaculate bathroom are views of Stoke church, made famous by John Constable, and Polstead Village. Being just 100 yards from two of the best pubs in the area, along with access to bountiful walks and the village shop, this cottage is the perfect rural village getaway.

10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
The property was set grand for Christmas and was very comfortable.
The only issue was road noise at the front on occasion and the back bedroom is a tad small.
The downstairs domain was perfect for a Christmas for 4, plus 2 dogs.
The village is lovely, as are many nearby, and dog walks were plentiful and very scenic.
Our meal at The Crown was fabulous- great service and food.
Must visit the "wool trade" churches in Stoke-by-Nayland, Nayland, Wissington, Stratford St Mary and of course East Bergholt.
Best walk in Britain along the Dedham Vale past Flatford Mill (Constable Country).
Suffolk; worth visiting more than once!

This is a truly exceptional cottage. Incredibly clean, surprisingly spacious downstairs and a complete treat to stay in. Generously equipped with everything you might need, warm, cozy, comfortable and with very special views.

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
This is a lovely cottage in the centre of Stoke by Nayland. Two great pubs within walking distance and lots of good walks from the doorstep of the cottage.
Good sized kitchen/diner with patio doors at one end into the garden which is gravel and decking. Nice seating area in one corner.
Downstairs toilet with washing machine. Door through to a very tastefully decorated sitting room. Upstairs two good sized bedrooms and a large bathroom.
The cottage is immaculate and we couldn’t fault it.
The owner Juliet is super helpful too.
Would definitely recommend.
