Located in the charming village of Kersey, Suffolk, River House stands as a stunning sixteenth-century farmhouse that has been meticulously refurbished, making it an ideal retreat for larger family gatherings. With a capacity to accommodate six guests, this Grade II listed property is nestled near the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering a picturesque setting in the heart of the Suffolk countryside. The house's historical significance and modern comforts create a unique blend that enhances the overall experience of staying in this idyllic location.
The exterior of River House is characterized by its striking sixteenth-century front porch and its proximity to 'the splash,' a quaint ford that lends the property its name. Upon entering, guests are greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere, thanks to the sympathetic restoration that preserves the farmhouse's period features. Highlights include grand inglenook fireplaces, cozy wood burners, a wood-panelled dining room, flagstone flooring, and beautifully maintained exposed beams, all of which contribute to a comfortable and memorable stay steeped in history.
Kersey has been recognized as one of the 'best places to live' by Muddy Stilettos, showcasing its appeal as a small yet vibrant community. The local Bell Inn offers excellent dining options, while Kersey Mill, located just a mile away, provides a variety of retail and entertainment opportunities. This combination of local amenities and the historical charm of River House makes it a perfect destination for those looking to immerse themselves in the beauty and culture of the region.
For guests seeking additional space, River House can also be configured to accommodate up to eight people. The property welcomes one well-behaved dog for a small extra charge, and feather bedding is provided for comfort. However, guests should note that infant or baby equipment is not supplied, so they must bring their own. The garden is enclosed, but caution is advised due to the nearby ford, requiring supervision for young children. Additionally, in the six-person configuration, there is no shower available, and guests should be aware of low beams and doorways throughout the property.
