Features

Our 17th Century ‘Farmhouse’ two-bedroom cottage is ideal for a couple, family or group of friends wanting comfortable self-catering accommodation (or an alternative to B&B) within easy range of Aldeburgh and the many attractions of East Suffolk and the Suffolk Heritage Coast. This property has plenty of character and is conveniently located for Saxmundham, Woodbridge, Framlingham, Dunwich, Orford, Snape, Minsmere, Ipswich and Southwold.

The age and construction of this 400-year old building means that there are some areas of restricted headroom and sloping or uneven floors within the property. Both staircases are also steep and winding – hence the minimum age requirement of 12-years old.

We have seven lovely self-catering holiday homes to choose from, all of which overlook our central rose-garden courtyard or gardens and are ideally placed to explore East Suffolk and the Suffolk Heritage Coast. The cottages offer the most space and have living and sleeping areas spread over two floors (three in the case of our 17th Century Farmhouse). The studios are all on the ground-floor and are fully self-contained in a more compact form factor. Both are filled with everything you’ll need for a relaxing break.
