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.
