Based in Saxmundham, Suffolk, this charming Grade II listed cottage offers a welcoming retreat for families or small groups, accommodating up to five guests across two bedrooms. The property is equipped with modern amenities including oil central heating, a woodburning stove, an electric oven, and WiFi, ensuring a comfortable stay. Guests can enjoy relaxing in the enclosed rear lawned garden, which is furnished for outdoor dining, and take advantage of the off-road parking for two cars. While the cottage is pet-friendly, current restrictions prevent pets from being accommodated due to recent damage to the fencing.
The cottage's location near the Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty makes it an ideal base for exploring the picturesque landscapes of East Anglia, known for its rolling Fens, unspoilt beaches, and quaint villages. The nearby village of Thorington offers a local shop and serves as a gateway to the stunning Suffolk Heritage Coast, which features attractions such as Thorington Hall, a 17th-century farmhouse preserved by the National Trust. Visitors can stroll through its gardens and appreciate the unique historical features during its annual open days.
Surrounded by natural beauty, the area provides numerous outdoor activities, including hiking and cycling trails, as well as opportunities for birdwatching at RSPB Minsmere. Local landmarks such as St Peter's Church and Halesworth Museum add cultural depth to the visit, while family-friendly activities like UK Parachuting ensure that there is something for everyone. Despite its rural charm, the cottage is conveniently located near a shop just a two-minute walk away and a pub approximately 1.5 miles away, making it easy for guests to access essential amenities.
While the cottage boasts many appealing features, potential guests should be aware of some limitations. The traditional narrow and steep stairs may pose challenges for individuals with limited mobility, and the bathroom is only accessible through the bunk room. Additionally, the top bunk has limited headroom, and the maximum occupancy for adults is four due to the suitability of the sleeping arrangements. Road noise from the nearby A12 may also be a consideration for guests seeking tranquility. Overall, this delightful cottage provides a cozy and convenient escape for those looking to explore the beauty of Suffolk.
