Experience a wildlife-spotting adventure of a lifetime with man’s best friend by your side in vibrant Suffolk. This fabulous first-floor apartment offers canine-compatible accommodation for four guests and one dog, ideally suited to any family or friends eager to enjoy a break filled with outdoor excursions. You can shake up your daily walkie routines with trips to local Suffolk beauty spots, including Orford (10 miles) with its fantastic medieval castle and several beaches dotted along the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty coast. At home, find extremely comfortable interiors for evenings in and 10 acres of stunning shared grounds that your four-pawed pal will simply love to explore.

Take a flight of stairs up to find the accommodation on the first floor of a converted barn. You’ll no doubt adore sitting in the pleasant lounge with its large picture window, staring out onto the country road and watching the wildlife pass by. This cosy area has been furnished with plenty of soft seating and a TV, so you can get comfy with your beloved pup curled up at your feet. There’s also a dining table here for enjoying meals prepared in the adjacent kitchen. As night falls, drag dog-tired bodies into two bedrooms, laid out as a king-size and a twin and each served by a family bathroom.

Hollesley is a pleasant village with a small shop and a local pub, a great place from which to embark on a number of Suffolk coast adventures. On foot, plot a route down to Felixstowe (8.5 miles) and take a ride on the passenger ferry across the River Debden. This quintessential seaside town is well worth a visit, complete with marvellous seafront gardens and a dog-friendly beach. Other fantastic walking routes can be found a drive away, including a route along the River Alde from scenic Orford.

What an amazing location! The garden is absolutely fantastic, we saw the kingfisher several times, and deer every day. Very comfortable apartment, lovely spacious lounge, no problems with headroom even with a 6 foot 1 guest.

A unique setting for a very well appointed property. The grounds are wonderful , perfect for walking round in the evening. It was so lovely we cancelled eating out so that we could stay to relax looking out of the huge window at the lake and gardens. Vale View is in a perfect location for Woodbridge and the coast.

Probably the best property we have stayed in. Surroundings of so many acres was ideal fro us and especially our dog. Would love to return in spring time. Shepherd and Dog on the village was very welcoming with sensibly prices food.

Site is really nice, and good of owners to share majority of grounds with guests. Only downside for us were a road diversion beyond the control of owners. Would love to stay there again.

An unusual location in the countryside but close to many attractions, beaches and forests in this part of Suffolk. The accommodation was comfortable and the hosts, Kate and Ian, were keen to see all was in order. We enjoyed having access to their extensive garden and invited to pick fruit from their orchard.
