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.

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.

Box Cottage has an excellent location in the very pleasant Stoke-by-Nyland which boasts a church, two pubs and a general store/post office. The cottage has a well laid out downstairs with a sitting room, a separate dining space off the well equipped kitchen that opens out onto a small but inviting patio area. The main bedroom is spacious with a dressing table and wardrobe but the window is in need of improvement as it allows a draft and the noise from main village road which runs right outside the cottage. However the second bedroom is both small and overfilled with a large double bed that restricts movement around it and leaves no room for any other furniture and only wall hooks for clothes storage. There is an upstairs bathroom with a bath and over-bath shower attachment. The downstairs toilet also contains a washing machine. The off-street parking is a bonus as the village road is very busy but is only able to accommodate a small to medium sized vehicle. On-street parking is available but not necessarily near the cottage. The cottage is very suitable for a couple but may be a challenge for four adults. Having said all the above, we have really enjoyed our three visits to Box Cottage.

The cottage was everything that it promised, well furnished and extremely comfortable. Hosting and customer service were great. Cleanliness, facilities and equipment were all that we would have hoped for. The garden was a delight - private and enclosed. Perfect for us and our little dog. Great village location with excellent pubs/restaurants on the doorstep and within easy reach of lots of local amenities. Beautiful countryside and very relaxing. Certainly a place to return to!!

Box Cottage is such a lovely cottage, so well equipped with a really comfortable super king size bed! The garden is such a lovely place to sit out in at any time of the day. Great location for coast and countryside. We love staying here so much we will be looking to book a fourth time!
