Stay at this romantic bolthole with your two dogs and enjoy the beautiful Suffolk countryside and coastline. Go mutts exploring the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or spend days soaking up the sun on sandy shores before getting cosy at this characterful cottage with its cosy wood burner inside and an idyllic fishpond outside.

Adjacent to the owner’s home, this one-bedroom property oozes charm with exposed beams and wooden floors. Fire up the warming wood burner and watch movies on the living room sofas as the dogs curl up and keep their paws toasty. A spacious kitchen/diner is the perfect spot to enjoy cooking and eating delicious meals together, while a conservatory provides a separate space to relax. You will find a well-appointed king-size bedroom upstairs. Outside is a large, enclosed, patio garden. Sip a morning coffee and plan the days ahead on the swinging seat while the dogs safely sniff about.

Benhall is a leafy village situated on the cusp of the Suffolk Heritage Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Head off on foot and paw and explore the stunning countryside from the doorstep. The market town of Saxmundham is just 1.5 miles away where you can pick up any essentials or find somewhere for a bite to eat. Visit the wonderful seaside town of Aldeburgh (6.5 miles) with its wide range of independent shops, eateries, and dog-friendly pubs. Your canine companions can enjoy the beach here with no restrictions in the winter months, or for summer fun on the shores, head to the open stretch at Sizewell Beach, 8 miles away from the cottage.

Lovely cottage in a great location. Handy for Sutton Hoo and Minesmere and Aldeburgh only 10 mins away. Well equipped kitchen and very spacious living room. Nice to have somewhere to sit in the sunny courtyard garden. Would definitely stay there again if we came back to that part of the country

A lovely, comfortable and well equipped holiday home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this spacious, elegantly decorated and furnished cottage. There were many nice little touches that you dont get in all holiday homes, a welcome pack, plenty of household essentials such as condiments, handwash, cleaning supplies, torches and even dog treats! ThRead moreere were also many books and dvds, guides to the local area etc. We slept well in the very comfortable bed! The cottage was dog friendly, with plenty of room for our dogs crates and the garden was enclosed and safe. The cottage was within easy driving distance of many lovely Suffolk attractions. Our personal favourite was Dunwich Beach, where we had a great lunch at Flora Tea Rooms. We enjoyed a walk in Dunwich Forest too. Also recommend Old Hall Cafe and Walks. We would definitely recommend the property and would love to visit again! Hide
