About this house rental
In the peaceful village of Chelmondiston, Vine Cottage is a thoughtfully renovated Suffolk cottage just a short walk from the River Orwell, Pin Mill and the renowned Butt & Oyster pub. Spend your days exploring riverside walks before unwinding beside the fire, dining in the enclosed garden or gathering around the fire pit. With a modernly rustic feel throughout, it's a genuinely comfortable base for families and groups exploring Suffolk's Shotley Peninsula and dog-friendly for up to 2 dogs.
We're available via messages should you have any queries, or via phone in case of emergency.
On the Shotley Peninsula, Chelmondiston is a village where life slows to the rhythm of the river and surrounding countryside. Wander through quiet lanes, follow scenic footpaths along the River Orwell or spend an afternoon watching boats drift in and out of the historic Pin Mill waterfront. From coastal walks and cosy village pubs to days exploring Suffolk's landscapes and attractions.
Mornings begin with a stroll to the River Orwell, while afternoons are best spent exploring the historic waterfront at Pin Mill or discovering the walking trails that weave through the Shotley Peninsula. Whether you're here for a weekend break, a family holiday or a walking escape, Vine Cottage places you at the heart of one of Suffolk's most peaceful corners.
Guests will have exclusive access to the entire cottage, including the private enclosed garden and off-road parking. Self check-in is available via a lockbox, allowing you to arrive at a time that suits your plans. From the moment you check in until departure, the property is yours to enjoy.

The Living Space
Recently renovated with comfort and practicality in mind, the cottage blends modern finishes with the character of a traditional village home. The living area is a welcoming place to unwind after a day outdoors, with a fireplace for cooler evenings and space to gather over a film or board game. The well-equipped kitchen and dining area make everything from leisurely breakfasts to evening meals easy, while the enclosed garden, barbecue and fire pit extend the living space outdoors when the weather allows.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The cottage offers a flexible layout for families and groups, with comfortable bedrooms, WC and family bathroom. Quality cotton bedding, room-darkening blinds and thoughtful touches help ensure a restful stay.
Outside Space
Step into a private, fully enclosed garden with plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors. Fire up the barbecue for relaxed meals, gather around the fire pit as the evening sets in or simply enjoy a morning coffee on the patio while children and dogs make the most of the secure garden.
Location & Activities
Vine Cottage is perfectly placed for discovering the best of the Shotley Peninsula. Enjoy a 15 minute walk to the River Orwell, the historic hamlet of Pin Mill and the renowned Butt & Oyster pub, where waterside views and scenic walking routes await.
A 10-minute drive brings you to Suffolk Food Hall, overlooking the Orwell Bridge, while Jimmy's Farm & Wildlife Park is around 15 minutes away for an award-winning day out. Ipswich town centre can be reached in approximately 20 minutes, offering independent shops, restaurants, cafés and the vibrant waterfront.
For those keen to explore further, Felixstowe's seafront, Alton Water's cycling and watersports, and the Suffolk Coast are all within easy driving distance, making Vine Cottage an excellent base for walking holidays, family breaks and exploring the county at your own pace.
