What guests are saying
This accommodation is in a lovely quiet location and very well equipped.
It is suitably positioned to explore, Snape Maltings, Aldeburgh, Southwold, Sutton Hoo and the Suffolk surroundings and coastline. Within a stones throw and worth a visit are Parham Air Museum and Framingham, and up the road, in Great Glemham, is The Crown; highly recommended and great for a Sunday Roast. Definitely a holiday cottage to return to.
Great accommodation perfect location clean and tidy with great character, comfortable bed and sofa with great bathrooms and shower - very good value for money.
TV with Amazon stick struggled with WiFi buffering would recommend a new smart tv - but hey should not be watching TV on holiday
A lovely cottage, just as described, with excellent facilities & all the equipment we needed for a great stay.
Great location for seeing local attractions. Close to Framlingham with all its amenities, the local crown pub great for drinks & food. We had a great stay thank you. Helpful owners on hand should you need anything.
