8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Lovely old cottage and we had a great time. There are a few things guests should be aware of. We didn't realise the opening to the bedroom upstairs was only 4 feet 2 height until after booking. We managed but others might not especially if you need to get up in the night- bathroom is downstairs. As 2 guests have to sleep in the annexe 2 keys to the main front door should be provided rather than having to wait for people in main house to get up. Annexe needs a WiFi booster. Plus a small welcome pack would have been nice. Apart from that we had a lovely holiday and visited some great places. Cottage was warm and comfortable and had a nice back garden where we saw lots of stars and the Northern lights!

Perfect. 5 stars across the board. Great central location for days out across Suffolk, with the benefit of a wonderful sun trap of a large garden, fully safe for our small, inquisitive dog. Highly recommended.

The cottage and barn annexe were beautiful. In a lovely setting with a fantastic large secure garden. Well equipped and heated with a great log burner. All contact with the owner was efficient and they were helpful. Would definitely return.
