The Buttery

Freston, Suffolk

2

The Buttery, a delightful one-bedroom holiday cottage located on the picturesque Lodge Farm in Freston, Suffolk, offers a perfect retreat for couples seeking a peaceful countryside escape. Nestled between the scenic River Stour and River Orwell, this charming property is situated near the Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, providing an ideal base for exploration or relaxation amidst stunning natural surroundings. The stylish conversion of the former dairy features an open-plan layout with a mezzanine bedroom and a spacious sitting/dining area that boasts double-height ceilings, creating a bright and airy atmosphere.

Guests of The Buttery can enjoy their own private outdoor terrace and dining area, which presents breathtaking views of the rolling countryside. The accommodation is versatile, as it can be rented independently or in conjunction with the adjoining properties, the Parlour and Dairy, allowing for a total accommodation capacity of up to 12 guests. This flexibility makes The Buttery not only a romantic getaway for couples but also an ideal family destination, with sound-proofed, interconnecting doors ensuring privacy while still allowing for family gatherings.

In addition to the cottage's amenities, guests have access to a charming Shepherd’s Hut located by a serene pond, perfect for picnics, swimming, or simply unwinding in nature. The property features a communal games room and a utility room, as well as a tennis court for recreational activities. For those seeking a bit of pampering, there is an option to book a massage therapist to visit the Shepherd’s Hut, enhancing the relaxing experience of the stay.

The Buttery is conveniently located just four miles from Ipswich, making it easily accessible yet wonderfully secluded. The Suffolk Food Hall, a short drive or leisurely walk away, offers an array of local produce, including fresh meats, fruits, vegetables, and artisanal baked goods, along with the option to pre-order bespoke welcome packs for guests. Additional amenities include underfloor heating on the ground floor, availability of a travel cot and highchair upon request, and the option to bring one well-behaved dog per property. The site also features two EV chargers for electric vehicles, promoting sustainability during your stay.
