Experience epic dog walks in the broad Suffolk Coast AONB when staying in this traditional 16th-century cottage. Welcoming eight guests and two dogs amongst timber beams and antique furnishings, this period property offers a lovely base in which the whole pack can reside. Fill your days with long, rewarding routes along waymarked footpaths or off-the-beaten-track routes, leaving no stick unfetched along the captivating coastline and exploring vibrant woodlands within Suffolk’s ever-changing countryside setting. At the end of each day, this wonderful holiday home awaits with a wood burner for cold days and an ample garden for summer stays.

Step inside and make a beeline for the lounge, a warm and inviting space where humans and dogs alike can rest and recharge in comfort. Ample seating, a wood burner and a TV/DVD promise to keep you entertained and comfortable late into the night, no doubt with your doggos dozing off gently in their bed. There’s a kitchen with a large breakfast table and a dining room here on the ground floor, perfect for easy-going breakfasts or more celebratory dinners. Across the first and second floors, you’ll find three bedrooms and two bathrooms presenting everything you need in way of amenities. In the summer, step outside and unwind alfresco in the generous garden. This space is shared with the neighbours, so be sure to keep a close eye on your pet as they sniff around.

Boat owners can utilise Orford Quay 250 metres away and embark on a pleasant trip along the River Alde, an unforgettable way to tour the local area. For those walking on two feet (or four paws), the Suffolk Coast Path leads to so many beautiful beaches along the coast, including the pebbled shores of Aldeburgh Beach (12 miles) where pets are free to play during off-season months.

Old Brewery House was an ideal location for our family get together. It was comfortable, plenty of space but cosy as well and as my 5 year old granddaughter said, "it was awesome ". We really appreciated the generous welcome pack that the owner left us and Orford is a beautiful small village that has everything you need. We will return.

The reason for not top marks across the board was that the lighting in the living areas was poor making reading in the evening inadequate for older people. no other complaints
